Doing the right thing isn’t always easy, and the complexities of this case may have baffled the police in the first instance, discouraging action. Or habitual racism may have been a factor in officialdom’s initial inaction, even if it played a scant role in the shooting itself.

Doing the right thing, like writing an unbiased article that is lib-snot pretending to be down the middle reporting.

This guy sees racism in this case, if it is not the shooter, it is the dreaded "officialdom racism".

Every American, except the American born black, is a racist, just ax one, and they will tell you.

Your being born white makes you a racist and them a victim; I am so sick of this crap.

What do you think the media reaction would be if someone put a $5,000 reward out for mikhail muhammed, the leader of the black panthers, regardless that no warrant has been issued for his arrest?

Do not know, I just know the former judge lady on fox, said the watch commander stuff was bull, he self appointed himself. His so called attorney also told her he was not his attorney, he had only provided some legal advice, that means, I do not work for you until your step dads check clears, when I get it. She also said, that in the real operations manual for approved community watch groups, it says they cannot carry weapons and they cannot approach anyone.

" this is why the police let the shooter go."

I understand that the Sanford police department wanted to arrest Zimmerman, but the DA said they didn't have a case and not to. If new evidence came out they could arrest him later, but once they arrested him the clock starts ticking. Apparently there was sufficient evidence of Travor attacking Zimmerman, mainly a broken nose and injury to the back of Zimmermans head and a eye witness.
Since the DA and the police work together all the time that is why the police won't criticize the DA.

African Americans have experienced a lack of justice for far too long.

Wonder what the name of that complex would be called?.

We know too little about Mr. Zimmerman’s state of mind before or during this tragic clash. Let's see: Zimmerman was on the ground with a 6'2" "kid" on top of him beating his face. He is heard on a 911 tape yelling for help. He was likely thinking: "If I can't get my gun out and shot this guy, he is going to kill me!"

I’m not CNN, but I’m going to play as though I were.

You must be lily-white, regardless of your skin color, or you would not be posting in here, except as a troll, which, evidently, you are not.

White hispanic usually refers to people with a hispanic background who are obviously white. It includes people of European heritage who are descended by a a Spanish-speaking culture. My very white wife, who is descended from Spanish Minorcans, is technically hispanic now. Since “Hispanic” refers to neither race nor nationality and now doesn’t even require you to speak spanish, I think the government did this to create a sub-category to exclude white people who are technically Hispanic from cashing in on the Hispanic giveaways and setasides.

To me, Zimmerman does not appear to be a “white hispanic”. But, in the Leftist Heirarchy of Victimhood, Hispanic on Black crime does not create the “right dialogue”, so the lighter-skinned of the two needs to be portrayed as white to set the narrative.

Even Richard Pryor said after meeting all the brothers in jail, “Thank God We Got Penitentiaries!”

This article is speculative horse hockey wrapped in a big dose of stereotypical, bigoted racism.

It looks as if they keep tripping on the facts, try to sweep them under the carpet and find that they stubbornly keep exonerating Zimmerman.

The only way this works for the TOTUS and the Tawana crowd is if they can intimidate the witnesses into telling it the way they want it not the way it happened.

Paul Jacob (1960 - ) is an activist, organizer,

His bio:

Draft resistance

Jacob first came to political prominence in the early 1980s as a draft registration resister. His crusade against forced military service and for the all-volunteer army was featured in Rolling Stone magazine. In 1985, after being convicted of violating the Selective Service Act, he served five months in federal prison, longer than any American draft resister since the Vietnam War.
Rise in the Libertarian Party

Jacob served on the National Committee of the Libertarian Party and then in 1987 and 1988 as the party’s national director. In 1988, he worked to put Ron Paul on the ballot for president as a Libertarian, winning ballot access in 47 states, the District of Columbia, and Guam.

See Libertarian Party ballot access.

Move on. Nothing more to see here...

In all honesty, Zimmerman doesn’t need an attorney at this time. The person subject to Grand Jury review doesn’t have a legal representative at a Grand Jury. People wait for the Grand Jury to decide as to whether to indict them or not. If one is indicted by a Grand Jury, then you either hire an attorney or a public attorney is provided for your defense.

I maintain that if the half Hispanic Zimmerman is white, what color is our half white president?


Very good question! So if Hussien is just some average guy living in a neighborhood, and he shoots a Black guy, does that now make him a White-Black?

Hey! CNN! I got a question for you! Is the President Black or Black-White or White-Black?

Since you are making all the race determination rules, perhaps you could enlighten us.

How do we even know Zimmerman is half White? Is his parent White enough? We'll have to ask the CNN race determination squad to send us a list of their ‘Who is White and Who is Black’ rules.

Then shouldn’t they always refer to Obama as a White Black?

He will get a public defender, but his step dad whatever father, the form judge, who has picked up after him for years, will cut a plea deal.
