Trayvon Martin muralist Huong vows to continue despite threats, hate mail
nydailynews ^ | August 13, 2013, | Doyle Murphy

‘I have an opportunity to explain firsthand what racism means and what injustice means,’ said the Miami artist, who plans to respond to each piece of hate mail on her website. Huong reveals George Zimmerman lookalike in painting is really her assistant. She unveiled the mural at Florida state capitol and plans to take it on the road. The Miami artist behind the controversial “We Are All Trayvon Martin” mural says she won’t back down despite threats and volumes of hate mail.

“This is not new to me,” Huong told the Daily News.

Huong’s mural shows a George Zimmerman look-alike blasting a hooded Trayvon Martin as Martin Luther King Jr. bleeds in the background. Martin’s face has been replaced by a mirror.

“The person in the hoodie could be you,” Huong said. “It could be me.”

Has ANY liberal, especially a minority liberal ever been critizied without them saying they had received “hate mail and Death threats”?
This is not a rhetorical question. As Dim Joe Biden says, " I literally want to know".

Her work is an act of provocation designed to trigger a violent “vigilante”/lynch mob response against Mr. Zimmerman and those who side with the verdict.

It does not “contribute to the debate” because it pushes outright lies instead of acceptance of basic facts and adds the inflammatory image of Mr. King being assassinated by Mr. Zimmerman's shot.

I will never understand Ebonics, I’m afraid. The subtle difference of intonation saying “creepy asscracker” and “creepy ass cracka” make a world of difference (although she has said that Trayvon meant BOTH a faggot rapist AND a security guard (”in need of beatdown”).

Either that, or she’s lying about the “threat” Trayvon believed Zimmerman posed to him and “his household”.

It couldn’t possibly be because she is a greedy opportunist — oh no.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio was sent a mailbomb and it received scant national attention. The White Hut didn’t say that they would put any agents on the investigation (as he did about some later mail threat against Democrats).

I notice the MSM has made Rachel persona no grata after explaining what an asscracker is.

She’s riding a wave right now — I hope she is there when it crashes big time.

What should the Rebuttal and counter charge be ?

What better way to cover up Bengahzi, Fast and furious, IRS, Wind and Solar panel gate, NSA spying on US, Over-riding the constittution? Don’t look into who accompaines Obama on his many trips around the world at taxpayer expence ? Were they the heavy hitters or their friends holding the president’s hand ? Never looked into either by the House and certainly not even speculated about or reported on by the media. Seems like that could be considered pay back at US taxpayer expence. Isn’t that an impeachable offense ?

Now if somebody even suggests impeachment.. Pick on some security guard accuse him of being racist ,even though he is part black, but his last name sounds “jewish.”Who’s doing surveilance in an mixed race area of modest means a where there’s been robberies and burgalries by young blacks. Now call that surveilance stalking, the area he’s patrolling owned by rich whities,and the guard of course white . Make that person he’s watching a 10 year old black kid and a saint ,not six foot two 165 pound 16 year old, who gets killed fighting over a gun. . Now put a target on the security guards back .Ain’t that neat ? What better way to discourage any investigation into malfeasance and corruption by organizing the base for riots in the streets ? http://www.freerepublic.cpm/focus/f-news/3051588/posts

What a disgusting pig, painting visual lies that stoke anger and racism. Was she a former propaganda artist for the Vietcong?

And here’s my take. Anytime a black commits a crime it isn’t his fault. It’s whities fault. Signed Dumbshit Huong

I think she’s lying about receiving “threats.” She got an extra story in the paper over it.

My thoughts exactly.

I believe Dee Dee was part of a gang given the job of grooming Trayvon to be a pusher. I believe she gave him sexual favors to keep him in the cockpit. Part of Trayvon’s training was to use his knockout king skills to eliminate any threat to his operations. A key part of his operations was to procure capitol money for his drug inventory through thefts of residents inside the gated community. Such people were easy takings because they had the false security of living in a gated community.

IMHO (of course).

I see what her painting represents. It’s the Progressive Movement shooting Dr. King’s legacy in the back of the head.

Yes, Ms. Huong, I'm certain that EVERYONE is suspicious of a tiny Asian muralist. All 4'11" of you.
