Zimmerman was on the ground being punched when he shot Trayvon Martin
Charleston Conservative Examiner ^ | 03/24/12 | Kyle Rogers

Posted on 03/24/2012 12:01:26 PM PDT by nhwingut

Last weekend in the city of Chicago alone, gangbangers slaughtered ten people and wounded another forty. The youngest fatality is only six years old. The youngest person wounded is only one-year-old. Many of the victim were pedestrians sprayed with bullets in drive by shootings. The national news has said nothing about this.

So why does one shooting in Florida warrant weeks of national news? Why has there been thousands of articles a day, for the last four days, about one single shooting?

Almost all of the news items about George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin contains a combination of false statements, opinions presented as facts, transparent distortions, and a complete absence of some of the most relevant details. Almost all news items are written soley from the point of view of the grieving family. The media also fills their articles with outdated baby-faced pictures of Trayvon. Very few include that he was a towering 6'2” football player. Is the media really reporting the news, or is this classic agitation/propaganda to advance a political agenda.

They know the entitled protected class pecking order.
Like the homo community not uttering a peep of protest when the leftist media supports muzzie gay-bashing.

Every little liberal category in its place.

I hope that phone number for Mr. Zimmerman is no longer in use (I’m sure it’s not now). It was not blacked out on the second page of the .pdf

Time for one of them to say, "It's not the nature of the evidence that matters, it's the seriousness of the charge."

Fortunately, our beloved mass media have taken care of that problem. Maybe we should stop having criminal trials and ask them to take over.

BINGO! Well and truly stated.

The sad thing about this is that black people cannot comprehend that the tragic death of a black teen is being exploited by the white democrat power-bosses, to herd black people into emotional reaqctions based upon the usual lies the democrat machine formulates through their guillotine deserving media whoredom.

The unaddressed tragedy is the continued exploitation of black people, whipping them into a frenzy for the political gamesmanship the democrat racists remain in power with! It is too disgusting at this stage to even be tragic.

Just spoke to my teenager about this, and basically said that no one knows the whole truth at this point in time and that despite that battle lines have been drawn. The sad truth about this is that we are most definitely a nation divided.

Spike Lee isn’t quiet. He tweeted George Zimmerman’s home address.

New black panthers aren’t quiet. They issued a $10,000 bounty.

If the kid would have called the cops “Hey some dude is following me”....he’d be alive today. nuf said.

You don’t even know or bother to mention their names.

They are already forgotten.

That’s just the way it goes.

“The 10 people murdered in Chicago last weekend, including a beautiful 6 year old little girl...”

You’re right, Sarah Barracuda. I saw her picture. She was a beautiful little girl, sparkling eyes and an angel’s smile.

So where are Jackson and the racist thugs Buckwheat and Sharpton?

Answer: They don’t care.

“They want us to believe that the biggest danger to our black youth are crazed racists with guns, when in fact, the biggest danger to black youth are other black men with guns.”

And last I checked, the guns used (no doubt pistols) are not allowed in the hands of law abiding citizens in Chicago just the criminals. What an upside down city (and state).

Thank God, I am a former Fightin’ Illini.

Of course they don’t care, it doesn’t fit into their agenda..now if that little girl was shot by someone white(Or half white) the media would have been all over it, but 10 people dying at the hands of other blacks its no big deal to them. Not a word uttered in the press about those senseless murders, that seemed to be random. I posted this on the thread about a murder that happened yesterday here locally..

The 10 people murdered in Chicago last weekend, including a beautiful 6 year old little girl, never received any condolence calls from Obama..no vigil in their honor..no bounty on the heads of their killers..not a peep from the media, like their lives did not matter. This is what the left is, they only show “Outrage” when they can capitalize on it, otherwise people can continue to die and no one utters a word. Apparently its all good to murder blacks, as long as the perpetrator is another black person. That is the lesson I learned this week. I wonder how the victims in the Chicago massacre feel about the guy they probably voted for, not giving a damn about their family members who were murdered.

Two killed in separate Oakland (CA) shootings

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2012/03/24/BAPE1NPSKN.DTL&tsp=1

Not a peep out of the NBP about seeking a bounty on these murderers. Wonder why?

Hussein and his sycophant media want a race war. Let’s call them out now! This incident is being exploited by Hussein in a similar fashion as the assassination of a Nazi diplomat in Paris in 1938 by a French Jew. That incident lead to the infamous Kristalnacht with the destruction of Jewish businesses and synagogues.
