When in reality, the biggest offense to a leftist is
not “Oh, I’ve been cursed at.”
but “Oh! I’ve been told the truth about!”

(awkward grammar, but I sacrificed that for parallelism with your quote)

Could the George Zimmerman issue be the “iceberg” that sinks the Obama WH just like a real “iceberg” sanked the Titanic? I do think so!

You said it.

As I have said in post #43, Zimmerman could be an iceberg that takes the Obama ship down.

“I’ve never, ever heard of a case where a fireman or firemen for that matter have asked the race of a dwelling inhabitant of a burning building. Never”

That's right, they only ask if you have paid your fire insurance.

He’s right, but stupid for posting it online. This kind of stuff prevents applicants from being fired AND getting employees suspended and/or fired. Besides, why us he posting on Facebook anyways? Grow up.

Touche’.....you are correct on that according to some recent news items.

I submit, however, that firemen in this particular regard are far, far above LEOs wherein there are so many examples of power tripping, race bias and general criminal behavior.

“Should Miami-Dade fire Capt. Brian Beckmann be reprimanded for his Facebook rant even though he’s a private citizen?”

Notice the not-so-subtile slant in the newspaper's choose of the word "rant". They could have said "opinion"... but I guess that would then sound so very very 1984 to be punished for your opinion.

"Don't you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought?... Has it ever occurred to your, Winston, that by the year 2050, at the very latest, not a single human being will be alive who could understand such a conversation as we are having now?... The whole climate of thought will be different. In fact, there will be no thought, as we understand it now. Orthodoxy means not thinking-not needing to think. Orthodoxy is unconsciousness."
(1984)

What stupidity. it’s “My coworkers and I”, don’t the teachers teach grammar anymore

No, and evidently they don't teach punctuation either.

I'd sooner blame it on those on the left who got sucked in by Soviet sabotage of our society and tolerate this BS.

the truth always comes out in the end!

Trayvon was a thug with poor parents, and got what he deserved.

I don't understand why hoodies are considered ghetto. I wear hoodies frequently, and a lot of young people wear hoodies, certainly not just young, black males. There is nothing about a hoodie that should cause one to be suspicious.

If every two-bit ghetto thug took to wearing a tuxedo, you could have no grounds for complaint if wearing a tuxedo caused you to be viewed with suspicion. The hoodie may once have been a perfectly legitimate, practical piece of apparal, but it's been appropriated as a uniform by a bad element of society, just as the word "gay" has been hijacked by the homosexual movement.

The next “card” we need to play out and make worthless is the “McCarthy card”.

Liberals/progressives/leftists need to actually have to defend and address their communist ideological associations.
