Scarborough SMOKES Hannity Over POT: "It's straight out of 'Reefer Madness' Really? Really? In 2013"

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough fired back Monday at FOX News' Sean Hannity's remark last week in which he asked whether President Barack Obama and Trayvon Martin are similar because they both "smoked pot, did a little blow."

"It seems we keep hearing that Trayvon had it coming because he had pot in his system," Scarborough said on his show, 'Morning Joe.' "I keep hearing this from people like Sean Hannity and others on the right. Really? Is that the new standard? Would we like to go across college campuses in America and tell all white boys that if they have marijuana in their system then they are fair game?"

"It's straight out of 'Reefer Madness,'" he added. "Really? Really? In 2013, Sean? Whatever excuse there is to say this young black man had it coming to him, that is the defense because there is no defense for shooting down a young black man in a middle class neighborhood with Skittles. Armed with Skittles."
