In the wake of the slaying of Florida teenager Trayvon Martin, House Democrats are drafting legislation designed to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
The lawmakers want to adopt tougher rules for neighborhood watch programs, eliminate certain state gun laws, rein in racial profiling and require an examination of racial disparities nationwide.
The Democrats behind the legislation all members of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) say the steps might have prevented last month's fatal encounter between Martin, 17, an unarmed African-American walking home from a convenience store in Sanford, Fla., and George Zimmerman, 28, a Latino neighborhood watch volunteer carrying a 9mm handgun.

Yup! Taking away people’s guns doesn’t fly in this country. Too many Americans still reside here.
Always ready to support black-on-white crime.
Replace National Night Out with National Night In, and allow the criminals and delinquents to have free reign over all neighborhoods that night.
How ‘bout we outlaw assault, after all Trayvon’s assault (allegedly) precipitated this incident... Oh yeah, it’s already illegal.
Those exploiting this for political gain make me ill, and I very much hope it backfires on them.
In the meantime, my firearms budget just keeps going up and up. ;-)
New signs at entry of gated communities:
“You are not under video surveilance and our neighborhood watch people are unarmed. Come on in!”
"I am tired of burying young black boys," Wilson said Tuesday during a Capitol Hill forum on hate crimes and racial profiling. "I have buried too many, cried too many tears, attended too many funerals and it is unnecessary."Oh really, Rep Wilson. Then I suggest that 'your people' start acting civilized. First start by making speak ENGLISH!
In reading little angel Trayvon's tweets I couldn't understand any of it. Not what he said or what his 'Homies' tweeted back to him. It was more like some primitive tribal jungle language than ENGLISH (awwwww, you thank that's racist, right? well bite me.)
And second, make 'your people' understand that they aren't anyone special. And that if anyone asks -- not axes -- them something they are not being "Disrespected" and a physical confrontation is the mandatory action they must automatically take. In any case 'Respect' is something one earns and today they haven't earned anything, EXCEPT disrespect for acting like feral animals. (there I go again, being racist. oh well, too bad, deal with it)
And then Rep Wilson make 'your people' get it into their thick skulls that if they act like 'gangstas', they will be treated as such. And as 'St Trayvon' found out, that can end badly.
Lastly Rep Wilson, you and your fellow race hustlers know very well the REAL reason that all your 'young boys' eventually make up the majority of prison inmates when Blacks are only 13% of the entire population. It's because they commit most of the crime, 'lady'. And you know it!
So have a nice day and keep up the feigned outrage over the fate of 'your peoples' youth.
ps: The act of having eight children by five girl friends doesn't make one a MAN. It just means that said male can reproduce like any other feral animal in the jungle.
No to trying to make new gun laws for the states unless you all want a wipe out in the 2012 election but OTOH you all are complete idiots to think a parson is not allowed to self defend?
If anyone can find pics from yesterday's protest that show larger crowds, by all means add them to this thread.
I wonder if there is more “burying young black boys” due to other black boys than whites?
The latest iteration in the array of criminal racist demagoguery from the Racist-in-Chief and his nasty foot soldiers.
No way these hypocritical big mouths would simply lie down and succumb if they they were jumped and beaten by the No_Limit_Ni**a.
so here we go as predicted - gun control for the non-hoddies
punish and restrict the ability to defend life and home from one group who wasn’t even a party to this, in the name of ‘black justice’
I feel like I’m in the 50’s and Sharpton is George Wallace
But... but...
It WOULD, according to real world statistics, enable the gruesome murders of countless more white "racists" by Hoody Amish.
Happy April Fool's Day anyway.
So now the US Congress has the constitutional power to regulate local neighborhood watchers?
