Michael Moore calls on Secret Service to investigate Dinesh D'Souza's Trayvon Martin tweet

Conservative author and filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza tweeted what we consider an “unhelpful” description of President Obama as a “grown up Trayvon.”  D’Souza was obliquely referring to the way in which Obama said if he had a son he would look like Trayvon Martin. The ensuing firestorm that erupted had at least some on the Left absurdly accusing D’Souza of wishing Obama met the same end as Trayvon. Left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore went so far as to recommend the involvement of the Secret Service:

Yeah, he said that. Dinesh D'Souza called Pres. Obama "Trayvon" — knowing, of course, what happened to Trayvon. Secret Service, your move.

Ridiculous.
