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

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....

The prosecutor is a joke.

There is a poster here who claims to know her. She PERSONALLY hates the stand your ground law. The fact IS that the law was seriously needed to protect citizens from the mob here and the ilk of prosecutors like her. SHE is the danger to the individual rights.

“We who labor here seek only the truth” is the motto emblazoned on florida courtrooms. She successfully changed it to “seek only to placate the mob and our leftist agenda.”

The powers of the prosecutors need to be curtailed and contained.
