About 2,000 march in Seattle to protest Florida teen's killing
Seattle Times ^ | 3/25/12 | Steve Miletich

"I AM TRAYVON MARTIN," read one sign in the crowd, ~~~

Many wore hooded sweatshirts — commonly called hoodies — because that is what Martin was wearing when he died. And some held bags of Skittles candy and cans of iced tea because that was what the unarmed African-American youth was carrying when he was confronted by the watch leader, George Zimmerman, the 28-year-old son of a white father and Hispanic mother.

The organized uprising because of the Trayvon killing is specifically for the purpose of distracting attention of the mindless moonbats from the creeping doom of Obamacare death.

Everything they want and worship is coming to destruction.

Trayvon is being used to prevent that understanding of the impending doom of Obama care.

I wonder if I would be called a thug wearing my skateboard company hoodies at the skatepark, grocery store, the mall or walking through a parking lot to get into my BMW because I’m black and have a hoodie on?

No more than I should be called “Redneck” after arriving at your parking lot in my pickup because I’m (sunburned) white and wear my boots and hat after working on my ranch.

(I also have a BMW, but it’s only out of the shed after we get the snow melted and the lane graded out.....generally about the middle of May. By the way, mine’s a ‘06 M5, maybe we can share a beer and some tales about the cars sometime.)

Meanwhile, the media ignores victims in the famous black on white crime known as the Knock-Out Game.

When the riots occur,(and they will) shoot straight...

They are the same idiots who threw rocks through Starbucks and McDonalds during the G-7 conference. They are the same idiots you always find coming out of the wood word in Seattle for anything whack left!

Back in the day...I was a surfer, had bleached blond long hair...and was pretty laid back. Most of the teachers I had...treated me like I was stupid.

That really got highlighted when I went to H.S. in Kansas. I graduated H.S. 6 months early........

People are funny....

SOMEONE ought to take ONE black on black crime that has recently happened ..Rush, Levin ...even Hannity ..whomever. And just repeat it over and over again .... even form a MARCH for this particular crime and its victims — illustsrate how NO ONE REALLY CARES if it’s black on black crime.

We need to illustrate exactly how political this is.

More and more, however, I want to move far, far away from the cities, and never return again. I’ve had it.

-- Can "Saint Trayvon" save the Obama presidency? --

Credit to somebody else, "The Legend of Saint Skittles." I like to juxtapose that with "The True Story of Trayvon the Thug (tm)"

I almost popped a hot head when he reached into his bag during an argument with me. He told the cops later he was reaching for his walkman.

The irony is that they are demanding justice and know nothing of the facts.

I would say they're being selective about the facts, hearing only those bits and pieces that fit their worldview.

People like to have their world wrapped up in a nice tidy package. Once they get the bow on it and everything is "just so" they set it in a curio cabinet and don't touch it for the rest of their lives, job well done. Meanwhile the world changes around them but it's too much work to adjust to it, opting instead to only see the things that fit their myopic viewpoint. Like a drunk, they surround themselves with people just like them to reinforce their belief that they're OK and everyone else is nuts.
