I stopped watching him long ago when he thought Bush wasn't hawkish enough in Iraq. He continues to be an idiot by suggesting that mob rule played into the jurors decision as that's pure speculation on his part. It's also an insult to the jurors.
I can never defend rioting and looting although I can sympathize with the anger. History shows the public will sympathize with just movements by peaceful protests but not when rioting and looting are involved. As MLK once said, "Every time a riot develops. It helps George Wallace."
