Zimmerman: Rachel Jeantel and the politics of soft bigotry

As defense attorney Don West grilled Rachel Jeantel during week one of the Zimmerman trial, liberal commentators fell all over themselves making excuses for Jeantel’s shocking behavior in court.

Her overall contempt for the processes and nuances of the court judicial system where explained away as illiteracy, that she did not have the education necessary to know how to behave in this “white man’s world” of judiciary.

Throughout the week, West was blasted by liberals for being “condescending” in his questioning of Jeantel.

During her first day of testimony, West attempted to get Jeantel to be more responsive and less hostile by telling her he didn’t think she did anything wrong but was simply trying to get answers to questions.

This lead to an outcry from liberal media accusing West of being aggressive. Aggressive? When a defense attorney cross-examines a prosecution witness it is called doing his job. His client’s very freedom is at stake

If Jeantel were not black, liberal pundits, especially the white ones, would not have made excuses for her rude behavior. They would have called it just what it was.

It was unacceptable.

It was unacceptable that during her first day of testimony the 19-year-old high school senior and friend of Trayvon Martin, whom Zimmerman is charged with killing, rolled her eyes, huffing and puffing when she was asked questions.

Her demeanor was indignant, and she made it fairly clear she had better things to do.

After spending nearly two hours on the stand, West told Judge Debra Nelson, he would need Jeantel to return the following day for a “few more hours.” When she heard that, Jeantel responded with a loud “What?“, looking very much like a caricature from a Saturday Night Live sketch.....

But the liberals keep telling us how smart she is because she speaks Creole, Spanish and English. Let me just say that STUPID in three languages is still STUPID! And I’ll be the first to pull the trigger “That’s Racist!”

The sad, harsh, and verified reality is that 40% of blacks score 80 or below on IQ tests. Thus, the article quotation about the witness being black and therefore not able to perform to white levels is fact based.

Reality just is.

This trial--and especially Rachel Jeantel's testimony--was the nail in the coffin of Black ghetto culture. It is as separate from America as the no-go zones of muslim culture are in Europe.

There is no question that Black Americans can perform admirably in the modern world...they do so all the time.

This problem is about culture. About the refusal of some to take a place in the modern world.

If some humans prefer to be feral...so be it. Give them a cage and let them exist among themselves.

If and when some wish to grow-up...evaluate them on a one by one basis. Trust them not.

We will live in a bifurcated world. Not our choice...but theirs.

Perry Mason would have cut her to pieces! And not care what the PC crowd had to say!
This is a mans life and Truth is paramount!

Bigotry, intolerance, hate, racism lies with the left - period.

It’s simple contempt...contempt for crackers who aren’t giving her money.

The elephant in the room is that Rachel Jeantel is the reason Trayvon Martin is dead.

She was on the phone talking trash to Trayvon about the "creepy-ass cracker rapist" following him and how if he was a real gangster he'd give the cracker a beatdown he'd never forget.

When Trayvon was killed because of her she went dark. It wasn't until Benjamin Crump hunted her down and gave her a script to follow that she resurfaced.

The main problem is that the ones with the lower IQ are the ones proliferating the most. It’s the same with whites but not as bad in regard to their proliferation. With any race the more intelligent a person is the likelihood of them having a bunch of kids is less.

Bravo!

[laxcoach]

Oh Geez. Do you have a link or something documenting that number?

I would be more interested in a % based on socioeconomic status, personally.

[Mastador1]

Thank You very much, I am having my no apologies from the White Guy tour right now, watch for more politically incorrect comments in the future.

[griswold3]

So you heard Dr. Jeremiah Wright’s speech at the Press Club in 2008, too?

[SueRae]

Exactly. And does any of THAT get discussed during the trial?

[RoosterRedux]

Refresh my memory.

[wideawake]

Her English is rudimentary, but unaccented. This tells me that her Spanish and Creole are probably extremely poor as well.

While it likely would not have helped the defense, it would have been amusing to question her in those languages with an interpreter.

I have similar questions about Rachel Jeantel aka Dee Dee aka Daisha Brianne aka Diamond Eugene (Travon’s girl friend) role that night of Martin’s death. Why did she lie about the reason she didn’t attend Trayvon Martin’s funeral? Why have dozens of graphic and explicit tweets disappeared from her account? Why has information about her been cleaned up on the web? Is she a member of a gang and was she recruiting Martin to get into the illegal drug trade (what I suspect)?
