There would be no white equivalent of Al Sharpton, the professional race-baiter behind the 1987 Tawana Brawley hoax, leading marches in the streets of the shooter's hometown. There would be no Federal civil rights investigation by the Justice Department. There would be no comments from a president who seems congenitally unable to keep his mouth shut on matters involving left-wing political correctness. And there would be no national media attention from biased, left-wing "reporters."



That's right After the initial news reports you would not hear of it again.
You would not have to because they would have arrested someone by now.

I'm starting to think we should just offer up Zimmerman as a sacrifice. Let them take him into the concrete jungle, never to be heard from again.

The upside, we wouldn't see an aids stricken looking Sharpton and the dbag Jesse Jackson for awhile.

I do laugh at the irony of seeing white racists supporting Zimmerman. My enemy's enemy is my friend theory is at play here.

Good link except for all the hating Jew crap on there.
Mainly because it isn't Trayvon. Only the pic with the gold teeth looks even close to being him. The other definitely isn't.

Not really, no.

It really doesn't reflect negatively on Trayvon in any way.

Hey - just because you're paranoid doesn't mean there isn't a creep in a car trailing you.

Now we see some evidence of a not-so-innocent kid. If George Zimmerman's background is fair game, then so is Martin's.

When can we expect Al Sharpton to expound upon this new development on his show?
You really must be desperate. Of all the transgressions the kid might have committed, smoking pot is about the least harmful I can think of. Most of the potheads I knew in my youth were as mellow as they could be.

Is this a good time to remind you that Zimmerman has a record of violent behavior? As in, he got into a brawl with a police officer?

You're overreaching and trying way too hard.
You can't be serious.

No, it's called WAITING for the FACTS! Let the justice system do it's job is what people are saying. If it was truly self defense, sorry, Zimmerman walks. If NOT, then there will be a trial or a plea deal. We HAVE TO WAIT!

I am. Of course, if you have links that show that Trayvon is being reported as a Boy Scout who helped elderly ladies in his spare time, feel free to post them.

Whether pot is "the least harmful" or not is 100% irrelevant. The issue is the narrative surrounding Trayvon Martion asserting that he was a baby-faced, innocent, black kid mauled down by a overzealous racist.

Innocent children don't have disciplinary actions over drugs.

Attempts to try to circumvent the narrative to conclude marijuana possession is of no relevance to the notion that Trayvon was an innocent kid is disgusting.
