I don’t have to tell you I’m not a racist; my life speaks for me. Yet, I will probably be called a racist because of this post.
I don’t like what happened to Trayvon Martin and I don’t claim to understand the frame of mind George Zimmerman was in when he fired his weapon. I don’t know the whole story behind the story. None of us do, yet. But this I know: a kid is dead and his killer is being publicly executed. The state of Florida is investigating the killing more slowly than some think is necessary and the Panthers have a bounty on Zimmermans’ head. People are angry with Florida. But more than being angry with Florida, people are Outraged at what they believe to be death by Racial Profiling. Perhaps profiling was a factor in the killing of Trayvon, unfortunately profiling happens everyday. But it isn’t a problem patented by one race. It’s a problem in every race.

The editing of the 911 tape is doing its intended job if you still believe Zimmerman was racially profiling the one who attacked him. Sheesh, some poeple need to get their facts straight.
I look forward to the day when people drop those kinds of disclaimers.
Who gives a rats @$$ if Zimmerman was profiling, taking the crime statistics into consideration, you’d be an idiot not to profile. It’s not profiling, it’s survival instinct, human nature.
“Violence is wrong, regardless of the reason behind it.”
Sorry, but that premise is wrong, Wrong, WRONG!
“Force may be met with force” was Roman law and still is law in America, according to SCOTUS.
Had the victim been armed, she could have at least sent a perp or three before her.
Satan needs the business.
I would like to thank whoever added the keywords. I was considering clicking the link to see if there really is a “very true” part. After reading the keywords, I’m not going to bother.
“I look forward to the day when people drop those kinds of disclaimers.”
I’ve dropped mine.
If you are evil, I hate you... no matter what color you are.
Who is the “Eve” in the title of the article?
Apparently you give a rat’s @$$. Otherwise, why would you make the suggestion in opposition to the evidence, and then get nasty with another freeper for pointing out the truth? It appears important to you for others to believe the lie that Zimmerman was profiling.
I think you’re supposed to go to some questionable blog to find out.
A precious Christian young woman, pre-med student over in North Carolina. She was from Georgia, attending college.
I wasn’t being nasty with another freeper, I was just speaking my mind. If it was perceived that way, then I’m sorry.
Hell, Jesse Jackson admits HE profiles based on race.
Few years ago was quoted saying at night when he’s in certain places going up stairways and someone’s coming towards him, he is relieved when he sees it’s a white person.
You’re freaking nuts if you don’t profile. Not when the fbi crime stats show that profiling makes perfect sense based on racial factors.
Anyone who listens to black rap all the time is a danger. That music has only one purpose, to get people angry. Angry at everything and everyone. It ain’t Billy Ocean.
The writer of this piece needs to go to a 4th grade writing class to review the use of capital letters.
Zimmerman claims Martin went for Zimmerman's gun. We don't know who's fingerprint is on the trigger.
One last thing about Eve…one of her assailants testified that she asked them to pray with her before they killed her. “Let’s pray”, she said. One of the ATM videos shows Eve in the backseat of her vehicle with her murderers, she has her hands in the air, a Be True bracelet is on her wrist. Her head is bowed in prayer.
“A precious Christian young woman, pre-med student over in North Carolina. She was from Georgia, attending college.”
Sadly, Eve Carson was murdered 3/5/08. Her two black assailants were charged on March 12. Yet Obama’s fabled “race speech” on March 18 made no mention of this tragedy, even though this was manifestly a “teachable moment.”
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/03/18/obama-race-speech-read-th_n_92077.html Candidate Obama clearly wasn’t going to risk antagonizing his base by reminding them of the disproportionate frequency of black-on-white, as opposed to white-on-black, murders.
> “Violence is wrong, regardless of the reason behind it.”
This statement could not be more false (or stupid).
When dealing with violent people you have to use violence.
They understand nothing else.
God gave you the right to defend yourself and he didn’t specify how or what means were acceptable or unacceptable.
Zimmermann's fingerprint(s) could be there from previous use of the gun.
However, if Martin's fingerprint(s) is/are on the gun, we can conclude that they were struggling over possession of the gun. That's the best we can do for lack of additional evidence.
Great point in your post #4. Without so-called profiling investigators would be abandoning their most important tool to solving crimes or thwarting likely criminals. So of course they will continue to “profile” by any other name.
