My guess is that they’ve omitted a lot of grants they’ve gotten from Obama and Holder.

Trayvon Martin has shown the whole country (including white, drug-induced liberals) how our black youth are being raised. No getting around it. And it is not whitey’s fault. It is black mama and daddy’s fault.

Racism or recurring past experience with the same outcome? Change the behavior, change how you are viewed, and stop making excuses for it. Thats how you get people to stop viewing you as criminals / thugs.

The regime and the media set the premise for the trial narrative and their presentations ignoring the setting where the incident took place..

An area having a “Neighborhood Watch”. If some of those so called conservative talk show hosts had interviewed guests who run such watches they would have exposed the regime and the media for the frauds they are. Particularly a “gated” neighborhood watch.

When you enter one of these and start wandering around no matter if you are white, blue, red, green, or black. You can be asked your purpose for being there. You are on private property. And yes those on patrol can and do leave their vehicle and follow on foot if they lose sight of the person they’re observing..That’s the Neighborhood Watch Captain’s a fancy name that’s really a security guard’s job. .

Since the Zimmernan not guilty verdict has been rendered, the facts of this case are still being shamefully being concealed by the media to the extent they are advancing and are complicit in permitting a putrid injstice to be committed of the worst order,organized and instituted by our governent.While denied. It began as a miscalculation when a surname of a Jewish origin shot up and lighted the heavens like a star shell in the darkest of nights.

It would have been difused if the media used pictures of both side by side because they look like cousins. And the area where this occured of paycheck to paycheck struggling homeowners of all races trying to protect themselves had been reported and not some ritzy all white enclave.they portrayed..

Worse yet the media is still pilling it on with ABC editing a a black jury members (remember when they were all white)t remarks to make it sound like she accused Zimmerman of murder which has been used by this writer in this newspaper,

It’s the second time this President of the United States has interjected himself into a confrontation between those in authority on legal grounds reasonably questioned and released someone involved in a curious activity in a patrolled area. Could this attitude be based from the idealized communist concept that there is no such thing as “private” property because the state (collective) owns the land ? .

Obama is demonstrating that he and the socialists can whip up the black population to create civil strife should it be necessary if congressional investigating bodies get too close to impeachment time at a moments notice . That includes; Bengahzi, IRS,EPA, MSA, Windgate,solar panel gate, and yet untouched travelgate 2. And congress has gotten the message by treading lightly.

The result as we have seen is that another marxist axiom (division) has been implemented which has resulted with gangs of black youths murdering happless whites who happen into areas usually where a black population is the majority. Those media outlets who by their delberate misuse of the instrument of the 1st amendment are just as complicit in those deaths as the regime is. And that includes Ms Paterson and The San Francisco Bay View National Black Newspaper.

"We do not have time to sort through and analyze all this information, so our brain and mind takes shortcuts."

Like "Ebonics," or an inability to learn "cursive?" Or maybe pronouncing 'ask" as though it were written "ACKS," just because it's slightly easier, implying phenomenal, mind-boggling tongue-laziness?

My mind sorts through several million options in a couple-thousandths of a second, but then, I'm not a "Liberal," am I? Speak for yourself there, Buffalo Gal.

As my great-uncle Henry used to tell me, "Yes, Billy. All men are created equal. But 20 years later, there are some pretty glaring differences..."

Period.

Hippo. Not a "horse." A "hippo." A black hippo.

With really odd facial coloration, at that.

They got affirmative action up the wazoo. WTH is she complaining about!!! Blacks are spoiled rotten here with affirmative action opportunities. If they are too discombobulated to take advantage of them for jobs and eduction then it’s not my fault or the whites fault or any Asians here who blacks are usually insanely jealous of because many immigrate here with a pittance and make good lives for themselves and their children who get into college and do well in general.

Asians children can come here knowing zero or minimal English and do great in school and university. So much for accusations of racism by blacks

Social scientists have been studying these issues for decades. Unconscious bias. Implicit bias. We are learning that we all have biases about many things.

And what implicit bias did this genius discover in the actions of Trayvon, and in the very detailed testimony of Rachel Jeantel where she described their speculations about Zimmerman and his possible motives?

The logic she uses in this piece is poor. From the general to the specific, without the aid of any evidence against GZ.

My wife, a school teacher, has only one question for Dr. Patterson, J.D.: “In the Martin/Zimmerman encounter, who threw the first punch?”

I wonder if the Department of Justice can introduce notions of implicit bias to explain why George Zimmerman’s actions were motivated by negative views of Black people. I do not have expertise in how to plead and prove a case against Mr. Zimmerman using implicit bias concepts, but I feel it would be helpful for the body politic to have to face how racism manifests itself today.

In other words, this nitwit now wants to convict Zimmerman not on any facts of racism, but unconscious racism. This goes beyond thoughtcrime. You are now guilty of thoughts you don't even have, because you're white.

I blame the White Devil that invented light bulbs for the poor lighting in that photo!

new ways of viewing race are surfacing

I agree that new views on race are surfacing. White guilt is quickly evaporating, and many people are becoming more comfortable on pointing out the black community's extreme tribalism. Further, many people are beginning to understand that genetics does play a role in group dynamics and group outcomes.

To come full circle, I wonder if the Department of Justice can introduce notions of implicit bias to explain why George Zimmerman’s actions were motivated by negative views of Black people.

We are going to need something like the post-WW-II Denazification program for demoKKKrats...

It wasn’t right because they probably spit in it and did other things to it.

By showing Trayvon bare chested, the defense primed the jurors to think of him as a dangerous Black man.

Trayvon posted that same picture on social media accounts, so the young thug clearly thought of himself as dangerous and wished others to think of him that way as well. Thanks for confirming that, Eva.
