Justice was not done in Sanford Florida yesterday.

*snip*

We’ll never know [what happened].

Both of these can't be true. If we can't know what happened, "not guilty" is the correct verdict, and people who keep wishing it were easier to send people to prison based on what "coulda happened" ought to think long and hard about how that would play out in the many thousands of trials that don't get the publicity of this one.

And you have to put GW Bush saying “If I had a son he would have looked like Trayvon”.

More like, "If I had a Tray... had a son, he would have looked like my son, er, like Trayvon."

Well, he isn’t a good enough girbilist to land a job at even a second or third rate news outlet.
Notice the complete lack of posted comment sections throughout the site.
I would suggest Larry’s employment options have been hindered by Larry’s low quality output.

“You’re entitled to your own opinions. You’re not entitled to your own facts.” - Daniel Patrick Moynihan

But this is what the Liberal does, uses facts not in evidence to create a fiction that they can rally around. But if you have to lie to make a point, then your point in not worth making.

Longboat Key is an oh-so-exclusive island just off the coast of Sarasota. It’s populated primarily (exclusively?) by obscenely rich liberals. Police there are reputed to stop cars which they don’t recognize for any made-up traffic/vehicle excuse.

“You’re entitled to your own opinions. You’re not entitled to your own facts.” - Daniel Patrick Moynihan

I really do not what is worse, Larry Grossman’s propaganda article or the Longboat Key News publishing it. When the Marxist Liberal cannot make the point they want with the facts on hand, they want they resort to out right lies and half truths.

This race baiting article attacks our legal system, our common sense, and is a fairy tale meant to support the obama agenda of ending gun ownership and having people defend themselves. In fact stories like this are used to enrage the weak minded with the result that everyone associated with Zimmerman have had death threats. Including people with similar phone numbers and last names. DISGUSTING AND UN-AMERICAN.

The writer is a propagandist and corrupt, the paper is Liberal and corrupt for publishing it. Nothing stated uses the facts in evidence, and instead uses the much heard talking point of “Marin as a victim cannot defend himself, because he is dead.” Overall the writer tries to fake a real interest and distain of the outcome in order to gather the support of the gullible, and paint the USA as something that it is not.

The real criminal in this Stalinist show trial is obama, for he used us power to force a trial where none was required. The public would have just ignored this had the race husksters, like Jackson and Sharpton, not to ramp up a false outrage and the President saying that ‘Tryavon would look like his son, or was him 30 years ago.” No comment that the press showed propaganda pictures with Martin as a fresh face twelve-year-old, and George as a criminal in an orange jump suit.

No mention of the Sheriff that was fired or the District Attorney that was replaced, because they thought this was a simple case of self-defense, and George Zimmerman did not break any laws. Then to create a false outrage the writer makes ludicrous unfounded comments. He uses insults to paint Zimmerman as a “would- be policeman, a man with a concealed weapon who profiled pursued and shot through the heart a “suspect.” Why does the Grossman have to add the comments of Attorney West that end with “exposing deep racial prejudices and anything but “color blindness”. When just ABOUT EVERYONE, INCLUDING THE MARTIN’S PARENTS, SAID IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH RACE?

Martin is painted as an innocent child with candy and a ice tea; when the real truth was, as revealed by his destroyed liver, that Martin had two of the three ingredients to make “Lean,” a drug cocktail to get high and delusional with. That Martin took martial arts training and was seen by witness to be hitting Zimmerman in this fashion; and, Martin should have been in jail for the theft of women’s jewelry but the school officials wanted to manipulate the crime numbers to show a false improvement. Grossman can only make his points by hiding the truth of Marin’s background and lying about George Zimmerman. If you have to lie to make your point, then your point is not worth making.

The revealed facts were that Marin took about 30 min to make the 10 min walk back to his residence, on a rainy night. Why was the fool out that long in the rain, looking in window? Then the phone calls to 911 by George reveal that he lost sight of Martin for about 4 min, which does not sound like Zimmerman was really following Martin or posing as a threat. If Martin had just punched Zimmerman and then stood there after he had knocked him to the ground, as a Man would of, Martin would still be alive. If Martin had not hit Zimmerman’s head onto the cement pavement, he would probably still be alive.

Then as a typical liberal with a straw man argument that NO ONE has ever heard before, Grossman throws in more propaganda with “The burden of proof was not on the defendant but upon the victim who couldn’t defend himself because he was dead.” Where is that in the US law books? I guess the writer would rather be “you are guilty until proven innocent.” I bet Grossman is the type that cries for more rights for terrorist and murders, which make him a hypocrite.

In fact to say that Martin could not speak or that the prosecution was at a distinct disadvantage is also a big lie. How many TV shows have the bad guys convicted because of forensic evidence? There was nothing on Martin’s clothes or body that contradicted Zimmerman’s or the eye witness details.

When Zimmerman left the truck, Martin was no where to be seen. No one points out that the 911 operator told Zimmerman to stay in his truck, to protect him from being attacked by a young black man. Crime statistics show that Black youths are involved in more crimes and murder than there numbers would suggest. During the time between the shooting of Martin and the acquittal, over 10,000 Blacks have killed each other. Another shocking statistic, the United States is 3rd in the World for murders! But if you take out just four cities with high black populations – Chicago, Detroit, Washington D.C., and New Orleans – the United States is fourth from the bottom.

The failure of Grossman is to not go after the real problem of crime – the high rate of single mothers with illegitimate babies – makes his article worthless and nothing more than a propaganda piece for those that would destroy our Country. For it makes the USA, which is the most tolerant and least racists country in the World, seem evil and intolerant. If this is the case, then should not the current President be held responsible for this?
