" We---Black folks---are so quick to forgive, so afraid of being perceived as unreasonable or uncivilized, that we tend to deny ourselves the very human right to be enraged."
That's Libel, right there.
Zimmerman is going to be sueing people for decades.
The sentence just before your quote was (with emphasis added):
"It’s still worth noting how Martin’s initial suggestion that Zimmerman had shot her son in what was simply a bad encounter that got “out of hand,” speaks to a classic response to racist crimes. "
If Zimmerman is "white" because one parent is white, then our beloved Dear Reader is also white.
As long as this decrepit subculture dominates 15% or more of our body politic, it will be very difficult if not impossible to restore our republic.
BTW, my white guilt bank account balance: $0.
stating that she believes George Zimmerman had an “intent” in mind when he approached her son and “carried out that intent.”
And she knows this how? From the neighbor who witnessed her son, on top of and, beating the crap out of Zimmerman? Blinded by rage or the prospects of a cash settlement?
Sorry about your son and i’m sorry the race baiters probably got to you but the evidence I have read is against him.
Get hostile, Get dead. Easy.
Evidence suggests that a 26-year-old man with a well-documented history of bias against young Black men took it upon himself to patrol his gated community with a gun and hunted down a significantly smaller teen boy even after her was instructed by a 911-dispatcher to retreat.
From what I heard, Zimmerman was a registered democrat and a civil rights/social justice activist who helped organize a campaign to prosecute the police captain's son for the assault of a homeless black man. That doesn't quite fit in with the democrat mainstream media narrative.
I’m certainly glad the Black youths that ran amok and were beating people at the states fairs last year were just being friendly. It would have been hell if that was rage.
Some people just like feeling sorry for themselves and hating on Whitey. Especially if Whitey is Jewish. Zimmerman sure sounds Jewish to me.
Gee, maybe the reason young males in your race are viewed as uncivilized is that such a large percentage actually ARE.
Which is why pinheads like you are viewed as unreasonable - because you are clueless why Americans - including the likes of Jesse Jackson - are fearful about the concept of a black male approaching them.
One sentence, multiple problems with even basic facts.
Zimmermann is 28, not 26.
Zimmermann doesn't have a "well-documented history of bias against young black men." In fact, he actually helped to organise an activist group to get the son of a Sanford police officer prosecuted after the boy beat up a homeless black man and it was swept under the rug by the cops.
He didn't "take it upon himself" to patrol his community - that was his role as a neighbourhood watch coordinator. One which he was fulfilling because said gated community had experienced several break-ins in the previous few weeks.
Martin was not "significantly smaller" than Martin. Martin was 6'2", 160 lbs (and that weight is just an estimate which is probably on the low side), while Zimmermann is 5'9", 200 lbs (and, judging from his pictures, it isn't the "really muscular and in shape" type of short but heavy, either).
Zimmermann DID back off after instructed by the dispatcher. However, by that time, he was being pursued by Trayvon Martin, who apparently had the intention of provoking a confrontation, so retreating did not guarantee a lack of contact.
What right does a prosecutor have, without proper evidence, to cause the arrest and detention of an innocent man? When a judge throws out this charge the prosecutor should be forced to spend the same amount of time in lock-up then FIRED.
Writer is so detached from reality. How do people get that way? The flash mobs that targeted whites this past summer were very concerned with being civilized.
I note no posts to comments at article’s source.
As Freepers we are so quick to forgive, so afraid of being perceived as unreasonable or uncivilized, that we tend to deny ourselves the very human right to be enraged.
Ms. Fulton’s recant was “on advice of counsel” who are using her and her family as pawns in their race-hustling game. No parent should have to bury a child. We can’t imagine, and don’t want to, her anguish. Nonetheless, the family IS being use for the benefit of the race hustlers, attorneys and otherwise, who are looking for their own fame and fortune that will in no way ameliorate the family’s grief.
A perceived right to be hostile is likely why Trayvon is dead.
This whole case proves the Democrats will eagerly lynch one of their own to push an agenda.
To borrow a phrase from Bachmann, there's no pony in what Jamilah's trying to shovel.
The lies created to push a racially divisive agenda using the Zimmerman case are not only dumbfounding in their temerity and brashness but in their ability to go unchallenged.
I fear for what we've become as a nation. Facts don't matter. Innocent until proven guilty? Doesn't matter. The rush to judgment in this case should scare anyone who lived through the "To Kill A Mockingbird" era of rabble-rigged justice.
Weighing in as he did, Obama showed just how small a man he is and how base in character. He failed as a leader to all Americans but, more sadly, he failed as a leader of what Att. General Holder once called "my people."
But whites are the evil ones.
What you all have said.
My white guilt bank account balance: $0, too.
They didn’t realize that Trayvon was missing for 3 days? I have read that on the Internet so maybe it is true, maybe it is not.
Losing a child is tragic, but maybe if he had been raised up not looking and acting like a thug, maybe things would have gone a lot differently.
