in the crossfire lz granderson and ken cuccinelli. are not going to believe what attorney general is encouraging state attorney generals to do. he is telling the nation's top law enforcement officers they can pick which laws they will and will not enforce. he argues they can disregard laws banning same-sex marriage. >> this is the essential duty to which all of us have been sworn, not just to win cases but to see that justice is done. >> that is a fundamental misunderstanding of his job. the argrogance of a single persn under mines the entire system of constitutional law. it is the duty of the attorney general to uphold the law, not judge the law. in that context, how would you feel if an attorney general who just heard that went back home, happened to be a racist, and said this is terrific. the attorney generals said i shouldn't enforce laws i don't like. i will no longer enforce any antidiscrimination law. >> i don't think that is what eric holder was saying and neither do you. what we both know to be true is that this has been deci

granderson, ben ferguson are back with me now. i want to show you how susan rice explained what she said back in 2012 and then take a look at how senator john mccain reacted this morning on a different sunday show when he was told about her remarks. >> the information i provided, which i explained to you was what we had at the moment. it could change. i commented that this was based on what we knew on that morning was provided to me and my colleagues and, indeed, to congress by the intelligence community. and that's been well validated in many different ways since. and that information turned out in some respects not to be 100% correct. but the notion that somehow i or anybody else in the administration misled the american people is patently false. >> i'm almost speechless and the information was totally misleading and totally false and for susan rice to say such a thing, it's a little embarrassing, to tell you the truth. >> so, susan rice has no regrets but john mccain was having trouble controlling his laughter when told what sh

granderson, was in the room, in the east room of the white house, listening to the president speak toom chicago. people are talking about how revealing and how personal this was. how the president opened up about his own youth and own racial identity. what he really doesn't do that often, which a lot of people think is ironic as the first black president. he say he connected. the fact that he connected will make a difference. >> absolutely. part of the reason why or at least i believe part of the reason why the president had been so hesitant to be this assertive in regard to racial issues is because he was the first black president. when you are the first black president, what you don't want to be perceived as is the president of only black people but the president of the entire country. i believe he is hesitant to dive into this issue the way he has. he doesn't have that burden to prove himself as a president for all. what he does have the burden to do is address the needs of a nation. what he talked about yesterday was the fact that we have men of color, young men of color falling b

let's bring in lz granderson and danny cevallos. >> lz, let's start with you. have a teenage son. why do you think this couple should or shouldn't be allowed to adopt? >> i think that the criteria that people need to be focused in on is whether or not there is love and stability in the household. from everything that i've seen about the case, there is nothing to suggest that those children are not being loved and that they don't have security. i understand this desire of wanting to live like what people consider the traditional family. i would like to tell those people that there is nothing traditional about a heterosexual family that kicks out their child because they are gay. that has happened. 40% of homeless youth are lgbt you are telling me just because there is a man and woman in a household guarantees love in a house just as it is not true that if you have a same-sex couple, the child is in danger. each case is individual. >> danny, what's making this case so interesting to so many people, you have a lot of people watching on both sides of the issue, is

granderson. >> first, cyd, if they are going to implement this penalty for the "n" word, do you thinkll be placed in? >> i'm a high school football official in addition to running outssports.com and we consider all kinds of discriminatory and hateful language of the same ilt. in new jersey, any kind of epithet based on gender, sexual orientation or race gets you not only kicked out of that game but the following as well. the nfl is starting to catch up. >> lz, i have heard a lot of people, including a lot of players, say this will be awfully hard to enforce. what do you think about that? >> they are right. i applaud what's happening in the high school ranks. the fact is that you have tens of thousands of people in collegiate as well as the pro sport game. it will be very difficult too determine who is saying what at what particular time. i am curious as to how they are going to verify the call. if the football crosses the plain, that's the touchdown. you are going to go back and listen to the audio and see if you have heard that word. it is a step the nfl is taking. you shouldn't have

granderson from epps en.com. the average life expectancy of the american male is 75. the average life expectancy of a retired nfl player is 53 to 59 years old. the federal scientist looked into this at the behest of the nfl players association and what they found shocked a lot of people. nfl players don't die young. they actually outlive their peers in society. they have a longer life expectancy. this mortality study was expecting to find an 18% death rate among nfl players. but they found 10%, half of what they expected, based upon the prevailing rateness society. they looked at 17 different disease categories in in 14 of those 17 different disease categories the nfl players had better health outcomes than the average joe, the comparable guy out in society. so things like heart disease, cancer, respiratory illness, diabetes, even suicide, was much lower amongst the nfl players than it was amongst men in society. and there's sort of a duh quality to this. if you run up and down a practice field for two hours every day, if you have intense diet and training, if you hav
