Justice for Trayvon...and Only Trayvon
American Thinker ^ | April 15, 2012 | Paul Jacobson

Posted on 04/15/2012 1:38:27 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Justice for Trayvon by Charles M. Blow, columnist for the New York Times (where else?). The tears begin with the opening paragraph:

"A boy's blood had been spilled on a rain-soaked patch of grass behind a row of mustard-colored condominiums by a man who had pursued him against the advice of 911 dispatchers. That man carried a 9-millimeter handgun. The boy carried a bag of candy."

The cascade of lacromosity quickly turns into a tsunami:

Americans saw the anguish of the boy's father and the tears of his mother. America saw a child who was its own. America saw its concept of basic fairness sinking in to the marsh of miscarried justice.

What Blow is really demanding is not justice at all but "social justice" (hereinafter called socialjusticeism), an utterly bogus leftist propaganda term that turns the authentic, historic definition of justice on its head: socialjusticeism is not justice for anybody, accused or accusers; it is injustice for all those whom the left hates. Nor should anybody be decoyed by Blow's brusque, phony feint at genuine justice: "The state will vigorously prosecute, and Zimmerman will be vigorously defended as is his constitutional right."

Charles Blow is obviously certain beyond any doubt, reasonable or otherwise, that George Zimmerman brutally gunned down Trayvon Martin out of racist malice. So are the Black Panther goons who have put a million-dollar lynch mob bounty on Zimmerman's head. A trial has not yet been concluded, so I don't know if Zimmerman is guilty or not; therefore, I have nothing to say about his guilt....

“A boy’s blood had been spilled on a rain-soaked patch of grass behind a row of mustard-colored condominiums by a man who had pursued him against the advice of 911 dispatchers. That man carried a 9-millimeter handgun. The boy carried a bag of candy.”

The cascade of lacromosity...

Is that a real variation, or the new way to spell forms of the word lachrymose?

America saw a child who was its own.

I for one sure as hell DIDN’T see a child that was my own.

My question is, what the heck was Trayvon’s father doing, much less thinking? Did this man realize his son had been suspended for some pretty bad behavior that year? Did he have a clue that his son was stealing from people?!!! I mean seriously, when I grew up, if I so much as did half of what Trayvon Martin did, my father would be administering corporal punishment, which in my day getting a whacking from your parents to give you a clue that you did something that was incredibly defiant, disrespectful, or uncalled for. However, instead of noting Trayvon Martin as a troubled, undisciplined kid who met a tragic end. If anything, one person who infuriates me is a father, or any kind of parent who gets away with pretty much not caring whatever it is that a child is doing. That’s what infuriates me more than anything, is the fact that Trayvon’s family doesn’t seem to even so much as recognize what was going on with a grown kid who was seriously on the WRONG PATH.

My 2 cents.
Is anyone else as outraged as I am about what has all the signs of a CAVE-IN to the race pimps Jackson, Sharpton, et al to head off the race war the actions of Obozo and others have made almost inevitable. (Obozo’s deplorable record in every area has left him with nothing BUT the race card to play. The Zimmerman situation is just the most recent available “trigger event.” Given the racial tension he and his minions are exacerbating, there WILL be others for him and his lapdog media handmaidens to exploit. It’s not too extreme to say that we have front row seats to the rending of this nation’s very fabric.
When “Special Prosecutor” Corey began the alleged “news conference” announcing that — as I predicted to my son just an hour or so before it aired — she had filed an INFORMATION against him, the ever so subtle Ms. Corey tipped her hand when she referred to Trayvon’s “...sweet parents.” She didn’t just throw Sharpton a bone: The plan is to throw them a complete human being — and (how disturbing this) registered Democrat — named Zimmerman.
Factor in that the state DID NOT take their so-called “evidence” (which probably would have included the doctored NBC 911 tapes had they been available and not yet found to be a total fraud) before 21 citizens in the Grand Jury. It appears clear that the fix is in and, despite any exculpatory testimony or evidence, NOTHING less than the public lynching of Zimmerman will satisfy a black community Sharpton and his flunkies will keep whipped up until he’s strung up.

We’ll have to wait to see how this plays out at trial but here’s my prediction: If Zimmerman is found NOT guilty of Man2 (not likely if the state can stack the jury as it often does), there will be serious race trouble. If he IS found guilty, there will STILL be race trouble for the reasons previously noted: Obozo needs it if he’s to get another term. It could easily be SO severe that he will go martial law and suspend the Constitution and the election. Can’t happen? Who in his right mind could have predicted what he’s ALREADY gotten away with?
Suggest you all brace for impact some time before November.

Only one problem, Holders America, (fueled by Obama’s secondery support strategies) wants to hang a honkie at any price.

This demonstrates the absurdity of Obama’s split policies and hidden agendas all which add up to race wars, class wars and general calamity.
He is the most destabilizing and destructive president that America has ever had.

Three things to learn about the Zimmerman/Martin confrontation if you are attacked by a feral thug:

1. Don’t call the police
2.Carry a revolver so you don’t have to police your brass
3. Walk away and keep your mouth shut

All this what you have said could very well plant the seeds for a second American revolution, mark my words.

The attacker had blood on his mind, so when he was slamming George Zimmerman’s head, trying to kill him, George did what I would do in a heart beat, he shot the attacker. Black people are being manipulated to get violent, which will bring the obvious reaction, we who carry will shoot the attackers and little barry bastard’s race riots can begin as diversion from his Cloward&Piven commie assault on our We The People Republic.

Dershowitz called the affidavit justifying Zimmerman’s arrest “not only thin, it’s irresponsible...Most affidavits of probable cause are very thin. This is so thin that it won’t make it past a judge on a second degree murder charge...There’s simply nothing in there that would justify second degree murder...I think what you have here is an elected public official who made a campaign speech last night for reelection when she gave her presentation and overcharged. This case will not - if the evidence is no stronger than what appears in the probable cause affidavit - this case will result in an acquittal.”

Charges against Zimmerman will be tossed in October or so.

Blacks will riot.

Martial law.

Election will be suspended.

Dictator installed.

That is all.

"Justice for Trayvon ... and only for Trayvon."

Great title.

Sums up, succinctly, what I've been trying to say for years.

We need to get back to "justice for all."

And another little-known fact:
"Civil rights" are supposed to be for all citizens, too. Not just for "minorities."

Who knew? Certainly not Eric Holder.

We’re finally seeing in the full light of day the ugly reality of black racism. Our descendents will weep over the irony of black Americans gathering together in the spirit of the lynch mob - not just here, but with Tawana Brawley, the Rodney King riots, the O.J. Simpson trial, the Duke lacrosse players, and dozens of other instances where blacks chose racial solidarity and hatred against non-black people instead of supporting rule of law, love of neighbor, or basic charity. God have mercy on their souls.

Excuse me, but that's a BLACK boy, RED blood, and GREEN grass, Mr. Blow.

I just can't stand it when people try to ignore color issues.

First they have to get all the guns and second they have to get the allegiance of the Nat'l Guard and military. Ain't gonna happen.

Turn in all firearms registered to you and/ or in your possession by October 31, 2012 or you will face 25 years in a federal prison for non-compliance with martial law.

What do you do?

Hide them?

What if your neighbor reports you to the local democrat party headquarters? Earn some extra favor by turning in those who will not comply.

And as far as the military goes...they are property of the US government AND they have been infiltrated by both hispanic and black gang members.

At this point in history, I’m inclined to put my money on maybe it could happen instead of ain’t gonna happen.
