Jamie Foxx joins Trayvon Martin 'Million Hoodie' vigil in NYC
Newsday ^ | 2/26/13

Posted on 02/27/2013 2:21:09 AM PST by SoFloFreeper

Demonstrators including actor Jamie Foxx gathered in New York and Florida on Tuesday to mark the anniversary of the shooting death of unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin, reviving a national discussion on gun laws and racial profiling.

Neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman shot and killed Martin, 17, in the Orlando suburb of Sanford on Feb. 26, 2012, and initially went free based on his claims of self-defense. But a national outcry forced the city's police chief to resign and the governor to appoint a special prosecutor.

Zimmerman now faces second-degree murder charges. He has maintained his innocence, and supporters say he has been unfairly tainted as racist, noting the neighborhood had been hit by a wave of break-ins and that Zimmerman is of mixed race -- his father is white and his mother Afro-Peruvian.

Anyone know how many racists showed up at the Million Hoody March?

Any media ever do any investigation regarding the neighborhood where George Zimmerman stopped his attacker? Are there still robberies going on?

BTW, is Jamie Foxx still making jokes about killing white people? How many times is the word n****r used in his latest film?

Killing white people is funny. White people defending themselves is hate crime. Saying so is hate speech.

We really do live in 1984, the left just decides what is, or what will be, and then that is assigned as the reality.

In modern America it hardly pays to know what is, because for the culture, for the nation as a whole, what is, will be determined by the opinion shapers, and will then be issued to us in the media outlets.

The poor Democrat-shilling media.

All they’ve got to talk about now is the pathetic Obama economy, his lousy foreign policy (so much for bringing about “peace”), failed “green” ventures, and all the ongoing political scandals. Damn - can’t talk about those, people might actually start to figure out that Obama is an idiot in way over his head...

So, much easier to distract the peasants with some simple race-baiting. Let the Trayvon Martin® Campaign for Sainthood begin!

Maybe he'll get to kill some more white people as the 'white' villain in the next 'Spider-Man' movie...

CNN reports 25 million showed up and only 1 NRA member who also supported the March.

“Killing white people is funny. White people defending themselves is hate crime. Saying so is hate speech.”

Isn’t Zimmerman half Hispanic? If yes, then if I were him I would present myself as Hispanic and not white.

As a side note; several talking heads and so called legal experts on tv have stated that Zimmerman will probably show that he acted within the limits of Florida’s Castle Law. But, the judge presiding at the upcoming hearing to decide this will probably not rule in favor of Zimmerman as the judge will probably be fearful (lacking the courage) of setting of black demonstrations, riots, looting a d all the other usual. So, it seems that Zimmerman will probably be sacrificed on the alter of just so to grant blacks their pound of flesh. Too bad, rule of law will be the looser that day.....

Afro-Peruvian is a race?

Zimmerman should claim he is black under the One Drop Rule.

Soleodad O’Brien claims she is Black and Zimmerman certainly is darker than she is:

You’re absolutely right:

>>initially went free based on his claims of self-defense. But a national outcry forced the city’s police chief to resign and the governor to appoint a special prosecutor.<<

The ‘national outcry’, not the actual law, is the ruler today apparently.

Elevating a thug - only because he’s black. Do you think for a second that Jamie Foxx would give a rip if Trayvon was a white kid? Another example of perpetuating racism, taught by Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

About 250 — mostly hirelings. It was a flop —

250, eh? Awfully short.

Frankly, I hope George Zimmerman WALKS. The case is CRAP.

The Miami media constantly refers to Zimmerman’s attacker as an “unarmed teen”...NEVER referring to the injuries George suffered at the hands of the thug.

I think what this says is that the fear of rioting from a Zimmerman acquittal is greatly exaggerated.No one is going to show up unless there is something in it for them.

To get any rioters out there after an acquittal they will have to pay more than minimum wage and pay it upfront and they are not willing to dig that deep into their Trayvon trashcans to come up with the money for it.
