Let the legal beagles duke it out. It's their job and quite frankly none of our
business.
BTW, nobody MAKES you or anyone else think anything, it's your choice what to
believe but believing what the media reports blindly is pretty stupid IMO. It is
always spinned in one way or another. Some say it spins left, some say it spins
right. Which ever way it spins it is almost never the pure truth. The truth is
boring and doesn't sell.

When are people going to learn that Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and their ilk
don't want an end to racism, they thrive on it and without it they'd be ordinary
citizens just like the rest of us. They're basking in the glory of advances won
through the sacrifices of others and using every opportunity to keep the
spotlight on themselves, often preying on the misery of others to get their own
time in front of the cameras. And what of the President? True, he said we need
to make judgements based on all the facts, but also just had to mention that if
he had a son he'd be the same color as Trayvon Martin. Color may have played a
roll in the tragedy of Trayvon's death but why speak of it in those terms by
someone who is supposed to be the leader of us all? I've got three sons of my
own, the youngest of whom were not so long ago Trayvon's age, so in them I see
him and mourn his loss deep in my heart. I also have children the age of George
Zimmerman (as could the President) and in them I see him, so wonder why this
rush to judgement by so many people when we only have a few bits and pieces of
information about what might have gone on when he shot Trayvon. I hear talk from
all sides about wanting justice for Trayvon, we all do, but how many of those
people want TRUE justice for George, even if it turns out this was all a tragic
misunderstanding that got out of hand and not the cold blooded murder so many
people seem to want it to be? I'm just sick of all this race bullshit, we need
to move on, and even if it played a part in Trayvon's death can't we leave it
there and not carry it into the way we deal with this? I see two sons here,
American sons, my sons, your sons, and the President's sons, both of them the
President's sons, not just the one who is his color or mine. Same for the two
bozos who call themselves Reverends but don't revere anything but their own
fame.

I always defend the underdog, even if he's a baby-eating mass murderer. I just
want to know the facts and let justice be done. I hate the way the media jump
all over these cases, they simply must have a victim and a villain. A forum is
good, even one on plus613 but the media is NOT a forum. It's just about selling
the story, shock and awe.

Something that I find ironic and alarming is the lynch mob mentality of a group
of people who in the not to distant past suffered from a number of lynchings. I
guess they figure what goes around, comes around. Past reactions to verdicts
they don't like makes me worry what will happen if Zimmerman is exonerated or
convicted of a lesser charge. That may be racist on my part but I keep thinking
about the aftermath of the Rodney King trial, and this is a far more hot button
issue.

The tensions between the races is still high even though our laws have brought
all races level with each other, at least legally level. I have always believed
there will be a racial war in our future and nothing has occurred to change that
belief in my mind. I sincerely hope I am wrong but it is not looking that way.
We now have a black president elected because of political correctness, I
believe, this has done nothing to relieve the tension between the races. I
believe it has done just the opposite and created more tension. This shooting
will bring about even more tension if the guy is found not guilty even if he
proved beyond a shadow of a doubt it was self defense (which I doubt by the
way). Even if he is found guilty of 1st degree murder there will be those who
want more blood and will be out to get it any way they can.
Mrkim Report This Comment Date: March 29, 2012 03:06PM
Since I waddn there when this happened to know what truly occurred it's hard to
realistically make a determination of what really took place.
That having been said, it seems the media instantly ran with the idea this whole
incident was racially based, began posting images of a younger (more childlike)
black kid and then somehow twisted the whole scenario even further by declaring
the shooter was a white-latino, all of which seems quite pointed in its overall
intent in stirring the shit pot and misleading the reality of what occurred.
By the time other news began to appear in the form of the actual 911 call made
by the bystander where crys for help by the shooter were verified and that the
witness claimed the shooter was indeed gettin his ass kicked by this kid (the
main evidence the police seemed to have used in not having arrested the shooter)
the media had managed to whip the whole incident up to such a fever pitch that
even that info didn't satiate the call for blood that had arisen.
It's really sad to me that people like Jackson, Sharpton and others have
utilized this incident to keep the racial tensions high, as is their all too
obvious goal.
Even sadder is that these same folks NEVER utter a peep when the reverse is true
and someone outside the black community is beaten or killed by a young black
male as criminal statistics actually point to as much more common.
Nor do they ever point to the all too obvious reality that with young black
males as the fastest dying group within our society, that they typically die at
the hands of other young black males.
If people like Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton really cared about the fate of
their racial compatriots it would seem a call for the return of social
responsibility, trying to keep blacks in school so they can be better able to be
productive in society and raise themselves up as a culture by something other
than handouts from the taxpayers would be a great start.
Jackson and Sharpton "could" do a lot to help blacks achieve better
lives for themselves but that is NOT their goal
And now it's been publicly shown the Black Panthers have offered a reward for
the shooters capture, essentially offering money to someone to perform the
illegal act of kidnapping, which since by law, with it being one racial group
essentially pitted against another, also becomes a hate crime at the same time,
both of which are also federal crimes.
MIA is any action by law enforcement in regards to these illegal acts which of
course would NOT be the case if the races involved were transposed, which is all
too obviously a clear case of discrimination by the DOJ, but hey, that damned
sure ain't nothin new since any white guy can easily tellya only whites can
perpetrate racial discrimination, blacks and Mescans always get a pass

Everyone needs to get over themselves to some degree but especially blacks,
they need to get over being "black". I can't think of any other group
in America that has alienated themselves from the rest of society as much as the
blacks have and continue to. This ain't the fucking 60's. There's always gonna
be some racism around because some people are fucking stupid. Get over it. I
hate to say shit like that because I really do believe people are equal but the
truth is that people don't ACT equal and some of the racist shit is their own

You're right PJ but unfortunately there are still too many stupid people in the

to that very simple realization. I don't even think it is the majority of them
but enough are making a big enough stink about shit that it makes everyone look
like assholes and the media picks up on the BS and shoves it in everyone's faces
all the time. Jerkwads like Al and Jesse just make matters worse in my opinion.
Yes there are racist problems and yes they should be addressed and dealt with
wisely but no one is doing that. Everything everyone does and says about it just
pours more gasoline on the fire.

Racism is good. I prefer to be around whites exclusively and separate myself
from the other races. Racism is normal, natural, and healthy. A lack of racism
or racial awareness is an indication of decadence, corruption, and degeneracy.
If a white person wants to race-mix, then go right ahead. If you want to
eliminate your gene pool, then that's on you. We have to cull the herd every
once in a while of all the weaklings and degenerates, so if you're a liberal
degenerate, by all means, abort your children and race-mix, we don't want you
useless eaters and dead weight in our race.
In general, minorities are 10 times as racist as whites. They stick together,
whites don't. Racism is nothing more than a person's or race's will to survive.
Minorities with survive, whites will not if they deny racism which minorities
have fully embraced. If you're white, then pull your head out of your as* and be
a man, not a punk.

I seldom agree with much David Duke says but he is right the white race needs

Minorities will not change their beliefs about us so we need to get rid of
political correctness and stand together and speak out about the minorities

the preacher extended his hand to the aliens in peace and got disintegrated for
