Group offers $10,000 for US black teen's killer
AFP ^ | March 24, 2012 | AFP

Posted on 03/24/2012 6:00:41 PM PDT by andyk

A black political group offered a $10,000 reward Saturday for the killer of an African-American teenager, amid a nationwide uproar which has prompted a rethink of America's race issues. The New Black Panther Party displayed a wanted poster on its website with a picture of George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch volunteer who shot Trayvon Martin, 17, last month. "WANTED!!! For the murder of Trayvon Martin... ALIVE, not dead or harmed," the poster read. <snip>

Despite the racially charged nature of the case, Zimmerman's lawyer insisted his client was not racist. "I asked him, 'Are you a racist? Do you have anything against black people?' and he said 'No,'" Zimmerman's legal adviser Craig Sonner told CNN on Friday. "I don't see anything that indicates to me that he's a racist." Sonner said Zimmerman and his wife acted as mentors to two teenage African Americans, even after funding was cut for the program. They have also helped at a fundraiser for an African-American church, according to the lawyer. President Barack Obama has called for nationwide "soul searching" in the wake of the tragedy.

Wow- sort of like the KKK hunting N*****s

nothing like a good old fashioned lynch mob

Maybe Rev. Al lead it?

Where are the level-headed black leaders? Will NONE of them at all condemn their own people for this? Lib OR Conservative?

Sanford police told AFP they were ignoring the NBPP's call to capture Zimmerman, a white Hispanic.

Say what?

Well that does it. I guess it’s time we start putting up rewards for homey perps who commit black-on-white crimes and get away with it.

Gonna need a LOT of reward money to fund this...

"...A black political group offered a $10,000 reward..."

A "black political group"? Who would that be?

Although I understand the whole non-racial cultural aspect of the federal government's "hispanic" checkbox, I have never seen it preceded by "white" in any kind of purported news story.

The NBPP wants to hunt someone based on their race. Quite the supporters you have there, Barry.

Holder will be perfectly fine with this.

THEY-WHO-MUST-NOT-BE-MENTIONED would be the NEw Black Panthers.

Incitement to murder across State Lines is a FEDERAL FELONY. Anyone think Holder will prosecute one of ‘His People’ for this?

If I offered someone ten grand to “capture” a person, wouldn’t I be a criminal for financially supporting a kidnapping?

If the group is successful they should be charged with kidnap.

“Where are the level-headed black leaders? Will NONE of them at all condemn their own people for this?”

Same place the Democrat Hispanic Race Hustlers are.

Scared sh**less to say a word, lest the Gravy Train Money stops.

“prompted a rethink of America’s race issues”

really.

No condemnation, no accusations of how its extremist or even controversial for a racial extremist group to be putting bounties on peoples heads??
