Zimmerman racist narrative implodes
Legal Insurrection ^ | July 13, 2012 | Professor William A. Jacobson, esquire

It probably will not stop those who want to portray the case as racial from continuing to make claims of racial motivation in the shooting of Trayvon Martin, but the FBI has confirmed that there is no substantial evidence that George Zimmerman was racist.

Via Orlando Sentinel, FBI interviews: No evidence Zimmerman a racist

Federal civil-rights investigators interviewed dozens of George Zimmerman’s friends, neighbors and co-workers, and no one said he was a racist, records released Thursday show.

FBI agents spread out across the state, talking to three dozen people, including gun-shop employees, Zimmerman’s ex-fiancée and the Sanford police detective who led the investigation into the fatal shooting of Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black 17-year-old.

And as the Sentinel further reports, additional evidence released mostly supports Zimmeran:

The new batch of evidence includes nearly 300 pages plus police-dispatch audio and crime-scene photos. Defense attorney Mark O’Mara received it last month.

There was little new that appeared to help the state’s case. Two witnesses said they heard an argument, then the voices moved away then they heard cries for help and a gunshot.

That does not match Zimmerman’s version of events. He told police there was a very brief exchange of words, then Trayvon punched him in the nose with such force that he fell to the ground. He said the teenager climbed on top of him and began punching him and pounding his head into a sidewalk.

Most of the new evidence appeared to favor Zimmerman.

A new witness whose name was blacked out told a prosecution investigator March 27 that she saw the fight and that the person on top was the one who wound up dead.

That makes two witnesses — one from an earlier evidence release — who back up Zimmerman’s version that Trayvon had overpowered him.

The Martin family’s attorney still is pushing the racism theme:

It was perfectly obvious, only about two days after this hit the headlines, that the whole racist-whites-attacking-an-innocent-black-victim claim was phony.

Same thing for the Duke lacrosse case. Same thing for Tawana Brawley.

Many of us saw those were phony charges from the get-go. Many of us don't understand how anyone with half a brain can't see through the lies.

But once these racial memes get started, they take on a life of their own, facts and truth be damned.

My oh my, they’re vetting GZ real good, aren’t they?

Why didn’t they do this good a job of vetting with a certain illegitimate, bisexual, Marxist Kenyan Muslim a few years ago?

“The Martin family’s attorney still is pushing the racism theme”

Who gives a rat’s a** what the family attorney thinks? Who gives a rat’s a** what the dang family thinks?

maybe Zimmerman could claim all those white ppl who accuse him as guilty, as the racist, because Zimmerman is “black “(he’s more black than Warren is Cherokee)

I pray that Zimmerman walks. All it takes is one juror to have the guts to hold out for an acquittal.

I’d hold out and vote not guilty.
It wouldn’t matter to me if the jury was held over for months on end...I’d never budge.

Probably I’d end up having to hide out in a shack somewhere with Zim to keep from getting grabbed by a lynch mod.

The real possibility that any juror voting to acquit would face an angry mob means Zim can’t get a fair trial. :-(

I'm guessing they were seeing if they had a case to bring federal civil rights charges against Zimmerman

This sort of obsessive focus on discovering whether or not Zimmerman was comitting Thought Crime causes me to wonder as to whether or not a racist has the right to lawful self defense in today’s Amerika.

The judge obviously lestered Zimmerman when he said the state had a strong case. There’s an attorney rating of the judge on the internet that shows the judge isn’t up to snuff. O’Mara did good by submiting the motion.

O’Mara stuck the bias up the judge’s ass during the last bond hearing. He put the judge on notice then and forced him to allow a mini-trail during the hearing. The judge had to be fuming during the recesses.

The only reason Zimmerman is on trial is because of the power of the black mob.

The mob descended on this man led by Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson and because anything in America that can possibly—in any manner —be construed as racism, makes Al and Jesse the centers of attention they hopped right on it.They have made a good living stirring racial tension where there should be none .Al has even gotten people killed.For that he gets his own TV show.

Latest news from The Conservative Tree House (Treepers) is the Crips gang link and Trayvon Martin’s dad, Tracy....he had Crips gang tattoo on his neck...and changed it to “praying hands” just before meeting Obama in March

Wonder if that is where the “kill Zimmerman” stuff started?
