How many times has this happened before? How many times has it happened since? Yet this specific case gets all this attention just in time when the supremes go over Obamacare. And just to make sure, our first foreign born Islamic mulatto POTUS makes the “son” comment. I guess the press is fed up with the OWS crowd so let’s try a new distraction.

Had hoodie-wearers ever thought that if they wanted to do away with racial distinctions in society, they would begin by quitting flashing ‘hood stuff? Not everything that’s legally permissible is even remotely wise.

Don’t here any protesting on the vast number of Blacks killed by Blacks; men, women, and children. Two weeks ago in Chicago 40 Blacks were shot in one weekend, ten were killed including a six y.o. child.

Where was Sharpton and Jackson on these murders???

NO WHERE TO BE FOUND

I guess for them, it’s peachy keen if “black society” is bent on suicide. (And not just things that are officially crimes — abortions too.)

Hoods and wearers have just changed, but the idea is the same.

I say we start taking names. That way we will know who is too stupid to vote when the time comes.

Ya, these gang members and gang wanna be kids, wear gang style clothes. They wear the droopy pants which sag down. They wear the bandannas and have caps on sideways. They make strange movements with their hands, which I think may be gang signals. They get gold teeth implanted. They get tattoos.

You get the idea that they want to stand out. They want to appear to be gang bangers from the hood.

If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, walks like a duck.

I’m ready to be flamed, go ahead, for the above comment about a duck, and being charged with trivializing this issue. But if certain people dressed and behaved differently, nobody would think they were gang or ghetto type people, regardless of race. If black young people dress and behave in a civilized manner, they don’t face the same reaction which those who behave as if they are in the hood face.

“Does anyone know why Hoodie was in the neighborhood anyway ? Did he have friends there or relatives ? Was the neighborhood gated ? just curious....”

To catch you up to speed- Zimmerman saw Martin bypass the gate system in the gated community so became suspicious. On the 911 tapes, Z. mentions Martin looks like he’s on drugs. Martin had supposedly headed to a convenience store and was on his way back to the residence of his father’s girlfriend. The father and the girlfriend were out for the evening. Martin had been sent to live with his father while on a 10 day suspension from school.

The price of Hoodies has skyrocketed.

Must be the Law of Supply and “Da Man”.

Trayvon’s father’s girlfriend has a place there. Trayvon was shot somewhere in the range of 60 feet to 100 yards or so from being “back at home” (reports are all over that range), with “home” being the place he is staying at least for a few days.
