HEY AL,, ITS NOT ABOUT BEING BLACK


I have stayed out of most of the insanity involved in the court case against Zimmerman. I really think that no charges should have been made and the trial was a circus.

With that said, I am not going to be a huge Zimmerman cheerleader or make out Trayvon to be a thug. Both could have avoided this whole tragedy. Was Zimmerman profiling Trayvon when he walked through the neighborhood? Most likely. But is that a bad thing? I do not think so. The neighborhood had a bunch of break ins and robberies before Trayvon walked though that night. Should ZImmerman followed or try to find where Trayvon was at? Probably not, in hindsight it was not a good idea.

The trial itself should have never happened. The Prosecutors had no case other than to use emotion to convict Zimmerman. The Law should never be judged by emotion, it is by facts. And the facts did not make the case without a reasonable doubt. So the jury came through with the correct verdict in the case.

This case would not have been as big of a circus if the Race Baiters would not have intervened. With help from the MSM, Zimmerman was convicted in the public eye before the case was even brought to trial. Misleading and false information made it even more a circus. This is a black eye on the MSM and the so-called Civil Right’s Leaders peddling their calls of racism.

Yes, there is racism in our country. It is a travesty and should never see the light of day in our country. Racism was not any part of this case, and would have never been if the President and the Race Baiters would not have made it into it.

There was no winners in this at all. Race relations have been destroyed because of the lies and false information in this case. The amount if utter insanity from both sides on this is a disgrace. Zimmerman is no hero, and Trayvon should not have died that night.

I think that my friend Ali has the best post about this whole drama.

I recall the first time I was called a “nig***r.”

It’s a word I do not use verbally, do not allow to be used in my presence, and it repulses me the times I feel led to write it. This is such a time because I want to share with you what it is like being black, enlightened, and understanding both George Zimmerman’s actions and Trayvon Martin’s cultural attitude. More, I want you and me to grow past this, together.

One catch: you have to stop. Whatever side you are on, stop. Right now

The fighting back and forth over this will not help in race relations, and will not heal the country as a whole. it will only divide us more and make things worse.

It’s time to stop countering facts about the case with people on Facebook, Twitter, or your morning run. It’s time to find a new brother or sister of a different set of experiences to learn from.



For some, the final tough truth is that jury made the correct decision.A nation of laws can govern a nation of many colors, nothing else can. Zimmerman acted with allowable reaction to a series of unlikely events put in motion by both Zimmerman and Martin

Ali’s ending is very good:

If we are serious and want to get tough with truth, we will drop the protest signs, dismiss politicians who feel the need to tell us their thoughts, chastise those who throw around the racist label, shame but forgive Zimmerman, mourn Martin, and teach our not to make either’s mistakes.

This pain, on both sides, isn’t about a hoodie

    Quoting Fossil_Fetcher:
    Had Zimmerman not been carrying a firearm the story might have never made the news. If it did, the report would probably tell us about some 'Latino' male who died mysteriously on the streets of Sanford, Florida. We would have all continued our lives as always and Trayvon Martin would continue be little more than a petty criminal.

but then AL CHARPTONGUE might be looking for another race related incident... and making sure some white guy would get fired. ala Don Imus? What a disgraceful way to make a living, being a parasite from people that eat into his bull.

    Quoting  :

prosecution was not always to bring in a lot of testimony, picture of him and the gun as well, his school records, incidents with the law, and the text msgs..... good gosh... he didn't even live there.... whats worse is that the Martins who have been divorced 8 years, made a million off of the homeowners association.... I noticed Sabrina and the lawyers sure have some nice new clothes now.
