The Detroit City Council on Tuesday unanimously passed a resolution calling for a federal investigation to see whether civil rights charges are warranted against George Zimmerman, who was acquitted July 13 of second-degree murder and manslaughter charges in the killing of Florida teen Trayvon Martin.

The resolution, sponsored by Councilwoman JoAnn Watson, sparked a discussion over the need for city leaders and others to focus more on violence in Detroit.

It's about time that the Detroit City Council stepped up to the plate on this important issue.

They are sucking up to Obama so they can get a bail out.

Same woman from the video saying that because the voted overwhelmingly for Obama he should respond by sending them money to help bail them out. She is a taker and a distractor. nothing else.

Exactly! Since the city is in good financial shape, low crime rate, and low unemployment. They should focus on a court case in Florida. I mean its right next door!

Democrats are parasites.

I think a random person out of the phone book would make a better city council member than the clowns that city has.

It's been my contention for some time that we would be no worse off if every elected official in Washington was chosen in that manner.  But people say I'm cynical.

Prime example of the tyranny of the minority majority.  As I said yesterday about Mogadishu, that city needs a thermonuclear makeover.

Sortition (also known as allotment or the drawing of lots) is the selection of decision makers by lottery. The decision-makers are chosen as a random sample from a larger pool of candidates.

Ancient Athens did this for a while.

Reducing violence by punishing the victims?

Ignore Detroit's large crime issues to focus instead on a freak shooting in Florida. More diversion.
