President Obama spoke about the killing of Florida teenager Trayvon Martin and ‘Stand Your Ground’ laws on Friday at the White House.
REPORTERS: Whoa!
Q: Hello.
PRESIDENT OBAMA: That’s so -- that’s so disappointing, man. Jay, is this kind of -- the kind of respect that you get? (Laughter.)
Q: Wake up!
Q: What brings you out here, Mr. --
PRESIDENT OBAMA: You know, on -- on -- on television it usually looks like you’re addressing a full room.
Q: (Laughs.) It’s just a mirage.
Q: There’s generally not --
PRESIDENT OBAMA: All right.
(Cross talk.)
Q: (Inaudible) -- got the Detroit story.
PRESIDENT OBAMA: I got you. All right. Sorry about that. Do you think anybody else is showing up? Good.
Well, I -- I wanted to come out here first of all to tell you that Jay is prepared for all your questions and is -- is very much looking forward to the session.

“Ping” means I am sending you this link to this thread to peruse since I feel you will take an interest.
Shiekdetailfeather was sending a notice regarding the article (ping) to Uncle Chip; SE Mom.
WELCOME TO FR!!! No we have never had such a divisive president. It is sad.
Amen.
Sing it Brother.
...[that had Trayvon had a gun] he "might have been justified in shooting Mr. Zimmerman" for merely "following" him in his car!
After positing that absurdity, Obama then went on to opine that "the law" is "ambiguous" on this point!
The legal community needs to get all over that wildly irresponsible statement.
“Trayvon would be alive had he not assaulted Zimmerman.
Just STFU you poor oppressed sack of ****.”
The feds and the race baiters spelled out Official Reality back in March 2012. Zimmerman thought Martin was suspicious because he was black, followed him, stalked him, and killed an innocent kid just for being black and wearing a hoodie. An astounding number of people believe that, probably because they made up their mind back then and then stopped listening (this is why the propaganda gets pushed HARD early on).
Although I have no doubt that Obama at least had a brief on the trial if he didn’t pay attention himself, he is speaking to the Official Reality that got planked together in 2012. He knows that many people will see his words as truth, since they do match Official Reality.
This entire play is about gun control and adding “profiling” laws to the “hate crime laws we already have, and maybe one or two other agenda items. I thought from the beginning that this was a scripted program, that went awry because they did not know for quite a while that Zimmerman was Hispanic, not “white”.
Has no one told the president how often black people have successfully used SYG? That they use it far more than whites? That it’s because there is so much black on black crime? That he needs to sit down for a few hours and examine the EVIDENCE in the GZ case.
Yes. That is the line the left is pushing. I heard a leftist on Fox today say “This verdict tells me if I am followed I do not have a right to defend myself.”
“clutching her purse nervously and holding her breath until she had a chance to get off. That happens often.”
Actually, that’s what pretty much all the taxpayers do when he’s around. He’s just in their presence so rarely he never noticed.
Welcome! And you’re right. We’ve never had such a divisive character leading our country. It’s painfully sad and a constant distraction.

We call it a ping when there is no message content to the addressee, just a link to the article and the word “ping”.
Welcome to FR! (Tell ALl your friends- all the cool people are here)
‘Ping’ means to send some sort of notice to another person, so if I want to let you know about a particular article I would ‘ping’ you
It is a computer term probably adapted from early internet days where you would test if you had a TCP/IP connection to another computer by ‘pinging’ it and seeing if you got a response.
FR welcomes everyone- as long as they can conduct civil conversation - no swearing allowed
We espeically love to talk to liberals, in the hopes we can cure them if their affliction (liberalism is a mental desease)
I AM NOT speaking for the site owner (The Great, and One and Only JimRob) - I am just saying what I believe would be common agreement
And if a moose ever bites your sister DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE OF POSTING IT HERE!!!
I haven’t read more about that case. .sure sounded racial though. Awful.
It is also about gun control. It is all about control and social engineering. We can't have anyone of the reservation.
I understand why black people are followed around in stores...
A family member owned a store in a local mall. While the clientelle in the mall were only 10% black they were responsible for MOST of the shoplifting.
She was a flaming liberal too. Until she started notincing stuff missing almost every time one had been in the store.
AND she had to stop taking checks from everyone, even though there were always good from white people there were nearly always bad from black people.
She spent half her time in court until I finally told her you do not want to CATCH people shoplifting, you want to PREVENT it. So she put up a lot of mirrors and real and fake video surveilance cameras and the shoplifint stopped considerably
But she said to me she was so dissapointed because she would be mortified to be consiudered a racist but what do you do when you are just reacting to reality?
Unless there is a restraining order, anyone may follow anyone.
I think you should bear a burden of proof that you are skeered before you can restrict someones movements.
So know the NSA can spy on us all but we have no rights to suss anyone up?
BS!
Discrimination is not racism.
It is a survival tool.
EVERYONE does it.
.... The problem with all of this race bating is that the Race Industry has been hiding and covering up any positive information attesting to the real character of Mr. George Zimmerman as opposed by the media fabricated one. The more information that gets out there that makes it to the vacant brains of the so called Low Information useless idiot public out there, the better chance that this incident will be subdued .... because ... let's face it ...... they picked the wrong guy to brand a Rabid Racist!!!
There absolutely needs to be a concerted effort to get the information out to the public even if it means spending a few advertising dollars to do so. There needs to be articles and perhaps viral videos and news specials made that tell the actual truth about Zimmerman!!!
..... For instance, unlike the vapid empty headed braindeads out there ... we all know that Zimmerman mentored under privileged black youth and was involved in the community ..... But, Did you all know .... that the evil George Zimmerman forced the investigation, arrest and discipline of a police Lieutenant's son who beat up a black youth ....... How much does America really know about George Zimmerman?
know = now,
Yeah, yeah, I no /s
How does your liberal friend like being a...a...a...a.................”profiler”.
