George Zimmerman was the wrong color. That's the crux of the problem.

George Zimmerman was the wrong color.

More specifically he was made out to be a white guy.

Trayvon Martin is one of the most important figures for illustrating the yawning divide between left and right in this country. To the left, Zimmerman was guilty of the following crimes:

Owning a gun

Legally carrying a gun

Profiling a preson of color because he was casing properties

Defending himself from assault.

Not rolling over for the liberal attack machine.

Those, to the left, are far more serious crimes than the crime of attempted murder that Trayvon was engaged in - after all, to them Trayvon was just standing up for centuries of oppression of the black man, and Zimmerman had some whoop-ass coming to him for profiling Trayvon - and liberals cheerfully lap up all the misinformation in the case (such as Zimmerman being ordered to not follow Trayvon) because it bolsters their opinion.

And I am not joking. I've tried to discuss this case with liberals. This is how they feel, and feelings matter much more than facts and law to them.

watch captain George Zimmerman mistook him for a burglar

Presenting this as news is false and misleading news. Fortunately, anyone exposed to even a tiny bit of the court testimony would know it is false.

I guess it’s no more insane than the community crack smoker getting a nobel peace prize.

FTA:

Martin was walking to his home in a gated Florida neighborhood in 2012 when neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman mistook him for a burglar. After a brief struggle, Zimmerman shot and killed Martin, an act that a jury later deemed justified.

ABSOLUTE LYING CRAP!! St. Trayvon of the Skittles(SBUH)had gotten home then decided to get Zimmerman, doubled back, jumped Zimmerman, tried to murder him by bashing his head into a cement sidewalk, and was stopped only when Zimmerman shot him with a legally permitted firearm. Martin was nothing but an evil young thug and a wannabe murderer whose budding criminal career was cut short by an honorable man who refused to be a victim. That the "civil rights" movement treats the subhuman Martin a a martyr only shows how evil that movement has become.

And another Martin — Martin Luther King — is rolling in his grave.

Yes, I know the man was a jerk in some ways, but he did help to advance racial equality. And he was not a punk street thug.

Perpetuating reports of an attack by a black youth of a black security guard into a concoction as a racial incident of lies and urban legend generated from utterances made from the “POTUS Bully Pulpit”. From a POTUS who needed to generate racial division to maintain control serves the regime very well.

His parents have become mega rich over this. He had what another year of life before he would have been gunned down by another punk and his parents would not have received a dime. His parents are pathetic.

Even the liberals are suckered into the perpetuation of the Saint Trayvon myth.

It's not about him anymore, if it ever was. It's about the perpetuation of the Saint Trayvon of the Condo Complex Foundation.

The loving parents, formerly not exactly belonging to the Fortune 500 elite, now have their own money box already loaded with cash for their own personal use a la the Clinton Family Charitable Foundation to Bilk the Permanently Stupid.

In other words, start a tax exempt "family" foundation, install Daddy as president and Mommy as treasurer, put family and friends on the board of directors, then vote yourselves fat salaries, health insurance, world-wide travel, lodging, food and other expenses...all paid for by donations from cultish, knuckle-dragging disciples and arm-twisted local and national businesses who don't know or care they're supporting racist scam artists.

The hardest work the Trayvons have to do is to keep the myth and the mystique alive and in the news so that the cash keeps coming in....and the above article is part and parcel of that agenda.

Obama's half-brother and Kenya resident, Malik, also set up one of these fraudulent tax-exempt "charitable" family foundations (The Barack H. Obama Foundation) which incorporation was more-than-speedily approved by the IRS after the divine intervention of Lois Lerner herself.

In fact, this "family foundation" thing is such a lucrative racket, I'm surprised a rage to form one isn't sweeping the country.

And the dumbass media continues to churn out ignorant drivel such as the article above.....while, as usual, ignoring the scam itself.

Make any myth you want - if it furthers the expansion of the welfare state, the MSM will be right there to help you sell it.

Recall Mathew Sheppard, the guy killed in an alleged gay-bashing attack that really ignited the recent gay-rights movement.

Turns out he was really killed during a meth deal with other homo/bi-sexuals that went bad. The gay journalist who exposed that in a gay publication justified the decades-long misrepresentation of the murder as being too influential to the advancement of the cause. But now that the cause has been advanced, it was ok to reveal the truth.

It shows the bankruptcy of the current civil rights movement.
