"piers morgan live" starts now. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com thncht is -- this is "piers morgan live." allegations of bullying, now the rest of the season, is cancelled. i'll talk exclusively to the parents of a 13-year-old boy, the one who was targeted. also, anger management. why alex rodriguez says this to wafn. >> i'm so heated up and so pissed off, i can't think straight right now. >> a-rod's attorney joins me and george zimmerman, traumatized, his former neighbor defends him tonight. >> plus, eyewitnesss to the assassination of a 6-year-old boy in the line of fire when jfk was killed. he's grown up now and joins me tonight to remember that extraordinary day. what if tragedy hadn't struck 50 years ago? what would america be like today? how history might have changed forever. i want to begin with the big story, the "n" word rearing it's ugly head once again in a massachusetts town where the rest of the high school football team season was cancelled after racist graffiti was spray painted on the home of a 13-year-old player there are disturbing charges of racist behavior and bullying. joining me the parents of 13-year-old isaac phillips. welcome to both of you. thank you very much for joining the show tonight. let me start with you anthony pill f phillips, what has gone on here? was the graffiti and why do you think it was sprayed in the way it was against your son? >> well, it said night stone need the "n" word on the side of my foundation. my son was having issues with the football team. that's why we feel it's a football issue. it's not our town, racist thing. police have been working hard to try to find the coward that has did this. but with everything that's going on with the town, i think, you know, that person is not going to step forward. >> how do you feel about the punishment in terms of the fact the whole town now will have no football? do you think it's an appropriate measure to be taken? >> i think it is an appropriate measure. i feel horrible for, you know, the kids that are not involved, but i mean, we are a small town. i mean, things like this shouldn't happen in a a small community like ours, so when it does, i think it's time for drastic measures, you know, cancelling the football season, i think that will flush whoever that it is that's responsible for this to step forward or maybe put enough pressure forward on them that they will come forward. >> i want to play a clip. this is from isaac himself, his reaction to what happened. >> if that's what's going to get someone to say something, then that's -- that is what has to be done. >> andrea, as his mother, how do you feel about what has happened to your boy? he's 13 and obviously enjoyed his sport. it's a horrible thing to have occurred. >> it is a horrible thing. he didn't ask for it. he didn't do anything for something like this to happen, so it's very sad. obviously, that it happened especially for my son but no matter who it would have been towards, it's a horrible thing to happen. >> in terms of the previous bullying and harassment, which we understand was also of a racist nature, what kind of thing has been going on? >> his cleats were taken out of his locker. water were put in them and they were put in the trash, and also, that same day, his bike tire was slashed right outside of the school, right outside of the weight room to the football locker room. >> and anthony phillips, has he been subjected to other racist abuse? what's tha . >> what's that? i'm sorry? >> i'm sorry, yes, i was just asking you if he had been subjected to other racist abuse other than graffiti. >> no, no, this was the first incident ever that word has been used towards my son. you know, we live in a small town. i heard the "n" word is, you know, commonly used because of rappers is what i've been told by parents, you know and stuff, you know, that the kids do use it, which is disturbing to me. we are -- this town is a majority full of white people. to know there is a bunch of white kids running around in school saying yo what's up "n" word, this goes to show you the mentality of some of these kids. >> i mean, obviously, it's an issue. we had a debate last night on the use of the "n" word and i made the point, if you're going to have rap stars and other leading figures in the black community using that word in songs and everything else, what kind of message does that send to the youth of america? >> well, i mean, what people fail to say, which i mean, i guess that's your right, i mean, everyone knows a group of white kids shouldn't be saying it. >> the kids know it's not a word they should be using towards anybody ed, regardless if it's in songs or where they hear it. they know what is appropriate and what is not appropriate. >> andrea, do you think isaac knows who sprayed this graffiti? >> no, he does not. >> i think that's what is bothering him the most about the situation, because he doesn't know who it is. he feels, you know, obviously having issues on the football team. he feels as it is a football number, you know, someone close to him, he doesn't want to go to the school anymore. we've been trying to keep him home to give him time because we want him to return back to the school. we don't want him to let these cowards win. we realize it's not the whole football team, you know. we realize it's unfortunate some of these seniors may not be able to play their last game, you know, but like i spoke today in the meeting, the school committee meeting, instead of everyone lashing out, the game is a week from now, let's just hope that someone comes forward instead of the 500 plus supporters of the game, you know, for the game to be played. you know, i believe that support should be, you know, put -- >> finding out who did it. >> finding out who did it so then they can play that game. like i said, the game is only a week away. from what i understand, i mean, i'm sure the other team would like to have the game, too. if this is tuesday night and still no one comes about, i guess everyone can be mad no one is playing that game but as far as i'm concerned, you have plenty of time to put that game on if that's what you want. obviously, you know, the chicken bowl, that doesn't affect the seniors. i'm talking about the seniors. put enough pressure on these cowards, these few individuals that's making this town seem racist, you know, have them come forward, you know, so you guys can play your game. >> andrea, let me just put to you what the "boston herald" says. they said in a leader article, quitters never win, winners never quit, does high school sports teach any lesson fundamental or important than that so why is the lumemburg team quitting? why is the town of lunenburg letting one incident of racist stupidity stopping it? >> i don't think it's labeling them as quitters at all by doing that. i think it's showing an action, showing they are taking action and that they are not going to allow something like this to happen. >> yeah -- >> and final question for you, anthony. yeah, final anthony, how is asic and how does he feel about the fact football is suspended? does he want to get it sorted as quickly as possible? >> well, yeah, you know, he would be -- i mean, he would love to be playing. he doesn't know who has done this to him. like i said, he really feels it was someone close to him. i mean, we're looking for answers. we didn't ask for all this media press. it kind of blew up in our face. i feel we've been trying to do the best we can to, you know, support isaac along with listening to the school committee, the superintendent, allow the police to do their investigation. you know, i'm disturbed by some people's comments, for instance the boston herald guy's comments. i'm not a quitter. my kid after his bike tires got slashed, you know, he was still playing. he was still hanging around with those kids knowing this was happening. we brought it to coach's attention. nothing was done. i mean, what are we supposed to do, wake up and find that and am i supposed to paint it over and not say anything? this is small town. i coached for this town. the bangles went undefeated, my 8-year-old is a big part of that team. he's asking me tonight is he going to have to leave schools. like, this is a situation that is spiralled into something else. i mean, my kid was the victim. and -- >> this is not a town issue. it's not the whole entire town, at all, which a lot of people are portraying and making the whole town to be ratest. that's definitely not what we're trying to say at all. we realize it's a few, one, two, through whatever it is individuals but they are a team and. >> right, and the reality is that somebody somewhere, somebody somewhere knows who did this and they need to come forward. >> yes. >> or expose them as the gutless little cowards that they are because what they did to your son was frankly utterly disgusting. anthony phillips and andrea, thank you for joining me. send my very best to isaac. i hope he's back playing football soon and i hope these horrible little bullies get discovered quickly. thank you very much for joining me. >> thank you, piers for having us, thank you. meanwhile, in new york city a sports super star, the yankees alex rodriguez storming out of a arbitration hearing. a-rod says he thinks bud is trying to destroy his career. joining me now is alex' attorney. remarkable scenes today. why was a-rod so uptight about everything? >> uptight is not the word. i mean, just absolutely flabbergasted, the fact that his accuser, the individual who has signed off on an unprecedented historical unwarranted suspension, refused to come to this proceeding when he's the one who made this decision to invoke 211 games against alex. again, unprecedented. unwarranted, come here, sit in the chair, take an oath, explain your decision to make the suspension. what this really is, piers, is coward and hypocrisy. hypocrisy because he went on national tv, he went on the david letterman show and joked about it in the summer prior to handing down the suspension, had no problem talking about it then but he won't come into alex' proceeding where he wants to destroy this guy's career and take an oath and answer very tough questions. it's unbelievable to me. >> well, let's take a listen to what alex rodriguez said today on the radio. >> my only message to the commissioner is, i know you don't like new york, but come to new york and face the music. >> what about you? does he like you? >> he hates my guts. 100% it's personal and it's about his legacy and my legacy and he's trying to destroy me. he's retiring in 2014 and to put me on his pamantle on his way o is his accomplishment. >> why do so many think he's another lance armstrong in the making? >> well, i honestly have no idea. i've come to know him and he's a spectacular human being. he gives of himself, the charitable deeds he does that no one knows about. he's someone who doesn't gripe and complain. today he lost it for a good reason. he sat through ten days, ten days of this proceeding where he listened to this guy tony bosch come in there, make up stories about him, be impeached where he slithered off the witness stand and waiting for his turn to put on his case. the witness we chose to call to explain his decision, which we knew he couldn't explain would be commissioner sealy. the individual who testified according to mlb, saying mr. man ford testified the coo of baseball regarding the explanation of suspension. that's not true, piers. mr. man ford basically deferred to mr. selic. it wasn't my call, it was bud selick's call. if that's the case, how is it possible that we cannot call him in this proceeding to question him how he got to 211 games -- >> let me ask you this, joe. >> sure. >> i think it's your real bone of contention, both you and your client that the scale of the punishment or acquisition itself that he cheated, do you accept and does he accept that he did take performance enhancing drugs? are you simply enraged by what you view as a sentence? >> there is not a human being with a brain that doesn't have a motivation to go against alex that thinks everyone else gets 50 and alex gets 211 and that's normal. let me be clear, piers, we're talking about not the time alex said in 2001 he used performance enhancing drugs, an admission he made because he didn't have to make because he wasn't on the charges. alex rodriguez did not take performance enhancing drugs in the time frame they are questioning. he made an admission there. 2010, '11, '12 -- >> when was the last time -- >> alex admitted that. again, this is over a decade or so ago when he played for the text teas rangers. >> alex rodriguez said and you believe him that he hasn't taken performance enhancing drugs in over a decade? >> absolutely. it would defy science because what bosch is accusing him of, scientific results of tests would make it impossible, impossible for alex not to have tested positive. >> joe, always good to talk to you. thank you very much indeed for coming on the show. >> thank you. when we come back, george zimmerman's neighbor defends him and what if jfk lived and won reelection? would a second kennedy term be like? i got this.

>> well, piers, in my honest opinion and i'm not a medical doctor, but i believe that george is suffering from untreated posttraumatic stress disorder, and i base it upon, you know, some of the criteria that i read in the dsm 4 which is now the 5, one of the guests on another show is on -- corrected me on that and it's really no different in the version, but, you know, it has a manifestation. first of all, george is a spiritual and religious person. he comes from a religious family that believes in the ten command thes and one of those are thou shall not kill. you know, we as human beings, you know, we have those suppressed feelings, and i believe this is just a manifestation of the ptsd, which i believe right now needs to be treated. >> but if he's suffering from all this, what is he doing in a house full of guns? ar-15s, shotguns, handguns? i mean, surely it's an absolute recipe for potential disaster all over again. >> well, boys will have their toys, as they say, but you know. >> what? >> he has always been around -- >> wait a minute. -- >> guns -- >> wait a minute, boys will have their toys? >> sure. >> is that really what you just said? >> sure -- >> george zimmerman that shot down an unarmed teenager and got off a murder wrap, you're saying he should keep the guns despite his drama over the whole thing because boys want their toys? >> piers, let's review this. he was acquitted of all charges. >> think of what you said and think carefully. >> i just did. >> boys and their tioys. >> people have toys -- >> they are not toys. mr. taffee, guns are not toys. >> it's a cliche, piers, it's a cliche. >> ar-15s are not toys. >> i understand how grave the situation -- >> why do you treat it like describing guns as toys. >> it's a cliche, piers. >> how would you feel if trayvon martin's parents are watching this show, as they may will be and george zimmerman's friends saying boys need to use their toys? >> a second amendment right to carry any weaponry he wants. he has not been convicted of any charges -- >> even though -- even though you yourself -- >> it don't matter what even though. it has nothing to do -- >> it does, actually, sir, with respect -- >> these -- >> with respect, the facts are what you have told me -- >> do you want to hear the facts? >> assuming you know george zimmerman -- >> and i'm trying to answer you. >> if i may finish my question -- >> and i'm trying did sh. >> go ahead. >> assuming you know him as well as you claim to, your opening statement to me was that you believe george zimmerman is so traumatized by killing somebody that he may be suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder and i asked you -- >> he has not turned. >> and i asked you why should he be in a room full of guns? >> piers, he has not discharged this weapon and these women who are opportune nice tick, with this untreated pts -- >> the women around him, the women around him may also argue very strongly that they, too, vulnerable around george zimmerman who has posttraumatic stress disorder and treats guns like toys did s -- >> that's a cliche. >> those are your words. >> that's just a cliche. he has not violated any codes, okay? anybody that wants to bear arms, it's plural. it doesn't say right to bear arm, does it? have you read the second amendment? does it say right to bear arm? >> my point was that you said, as his friend -- >> okay -- >> he's suffering from a mental illness, posttraumatic stress disorder. >> i said he's suffering from untreated -- >> why should he have guns? >> let's take the event, the life changing event, the trama that he just experienced. okay? he's on his way out to target. next thing you know he's living his life on the run and he's got quite a few people after him. okay? because they believe that he murdered, as you call -- >> he called an unarmed teenager. >> yeah. >> piers -- >> that's what he did. >> the facts in the case were proven beyond a reasonable doubt. okay? let's talk facts and evidence here. you want to talk about the acquitt acquittal, which is still very bitter in the minds of a lot of americans, and you know what? i kind of feel -- i'm feeling that resentment, but you know what? get over it. okay? he's been acquitted. the man is suffering from ptsd, a life-changing event, a trama that was experienced and in the dsm 4, which i read earlier tonight, which states that, you know, the takes place in and around four months. that's the interval and ptsd is directly correlated with a ma r majority of domestic violence cases. are you aware of that? >> well, i'm increasingly aware that there must be a correlation between his mental condition and his propensity to threaten women with guns, yes, because that seems to be -- >> that's their version. piers, if you listen to his call, he said they -- they asked him do you have a weapon? he said yes but it's in the box and it's locked up. >> yeah. >> you know, piers, there is your side, their side and the truth. that's why we have a court -- >> there isn't my side. i don't have a side. i'm not the law enforcement -- >> [ overlapping speakers ] >> it's her side, his side and the truth and the truth -- >> right. >> -- will set you free. >> okay. well consider me liberated. frank taffe, thank you very much indeed. we'll be back with gloria allred with her reaction to that extraordinary interview.
