For every Michael Dunn guilty verdict, a George Zimmerman still goes free
The Manchester Guardian ^ | October 2, 2014 | Syreeta McFadden

We want to believe in justice for all, but when guns are in white privileged hands, blind justice remains impossible to expect.

“I think it’s a vindication for justice.” Angela Corey said that. This is the same Angela Corey whose office failed, not so long ago, to secure a guilty verdict in the trial of George Zimmerman for the murder of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. But there was the Florida state attorney on Wednesday afternoon, having secured a guilty verdict – delivered by a mostly white-male jury in about five hours – that condemned Michael Dunn to a minimum of 25 years to life in prison for the first-degree murder of 17-year-old Jordan Davis.

This is a season in which we are witnessing the senseless murder of black bodies by white hands, hands that occupy a privileged white space. This is a season in which the victimhood of white killers – their implied innocence – is accepted or taken as given. This verdict in Florida on Wednesday afternoon tips towards a promise that justice is truly blind. But justice in America is fickle....

She is just full of lies. Murder is the finding of a court not up to her. What a joke. She puts herself in the place of a court. Pure arrogance and stupidity.

Bingo. Once you read that you know objectivity is going to be absent from the rest...

I’m not understanding the part about white privileged hands. Blacks are allowed to own firearms too.

This goof decided that he could get away with gunning down a black kid only because the media so greatly distorted the Zimmerman and Ferguson situations, implying every day that after murdering a black guy, society would just get you off for racist reasons. The kid might be alive except for the race baiting liars of the media.

Well, considering that the Dunn case is not at all comparable to the Zimmerman case, that seems fair and just to me!

I think the term “nappy-headed ho” was made for this one.

And the occasional choking of an Indian convenience store owner by "Black hands"...

Racial separation ends all this garbage. No more Zimmerman, Dunns, or Wilsons. No more perpetually pissed off 13 percent population holding the rest hostage.

And certainly not the crime rate.

Yes, for every idiot who shoots a kid for not turning down his music, there is a law abiding citizen who defends himself from having his head bashed into a bloody mess on a sidewalk.

I have no problem with that.

So the left still maintains that Zimmerman is white and not Hispanic? I guess it’s OK to keep a proven lie going when it fits the narrative.

Well Duh!
That is why its called Justice. The guilty are convicted and the innocent are not.

Syreeta????

Listen, Sweetpea: You're absolutely right. America is horrible. Us white folks are the devil incarnate. You'll never get anything remotely related to justice, here.

Your only hope is to leave, for the ancestral paradise of Africa.

I hear the ebola is particularly delectable this time of year.
