It's more than stupid. Its enragingly idiotic. White latinos vs brown latinos. Ethnicity vs race. You think this guy put down "White" as his race when applying to college? The media doesn't put the word "white" in front of latino when referring to Zimmerman because his skin is white. They do it to race bait. I bet you if he was a registered Republican instead of registered Democrat, we'd hear a lot more about that too.
Pretty spot on observation there. What I really want to know is why we keep seeing mug shots of Zim, and 8 year old kiddie shots of Trav? I've seen some recent pictures of him that would likely make me walk the other direction in a dark alley.
Interesting, I was just talking with a few people about that this past weekend.. But, as discussed in a few of our other threads here, I think we know the answer to that ....
Well worth a watch. Apparently, the second degree murder charge is to start the bargaining for a plea deal and assure a conviction of manslaughter. [video=youtube;vSK9tMfLmbc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSK9tMfLmbc[/video] Either way, guilty or innocent, Zimmerman will be spending the next year in jail awaiting his "speedy" trial, spending his future life's earnings on legal defense. Unless Zimmerman takes a plea deal, he will likely be acquitted, which will certainly mean riots. Not a lynch mob though.
I'm still waiting for Eric Holder to go after the New Black Panther Party for solicitation of murder. Wasn't there something in the constitution about "equal protection under the law"? Of course last time the NBPP got caught doing something, Holder let them off with a slap on the wrist and a statement that suggested their blatant example of voter intimidation was "inappropriate"... but comparing it to what whites had done to "my people" was somehow demeaning. http://ethicsalarms.com/2011/03/03/unethical-quote-of-the-week-u-s-attorney-general-eric-holder/ News Flash for Holder: You are the AG for the United States... not just "your people". Act like it. Putting a bounty on Zimmerman's head should be getting some attention, so take a little time away from subverting the 2nd amendment by shipping guns to Mexican drug lords and go do your freakin job. Murder for hire is illegal. Period.
At last, a journalist decided to actually do some background work on Zimmerman. A rather interesting read. It sheds light on what a lynch mob this show trial really is. Hate crime / Murder 2 indeed. Meanwhile, racially motivated beatings and attacks on white people have occurred in several cities where the assailants have used the words, "This is for Trayvon". Good thing the media drove home how Zimmerman is a white guy who viciously murdered a black child. Good thing the President weighed in on how poor Trayvon might have been his son. I have to wonder how much responsibility they feel for the new victims they've helped create.
