Trayvon Martin Redux, A.K.A. Michael Brown
I’ve had about all I can take, folks. Is there a word for the cliché becoming a cliché of the cliché? This week there was a shooting death in Ferguson, Missouri which has “transfixed the nation”. All the expected players were there: Sleazeball Sharpton, Jerk Jackson, Paris S. Lewis of the New Black Panther Party (who calls himself Malik Zulu Shabazz, excuse me while I laugh myself silly), a dead teenaged Negro, a Caucasian policeman, an orgasmic, drooling media, and a riotous crowd of local and imported Negro looters and pillagers.
I can’t help but notice the almost identical unfolding of events with the Trayvon Martin frenzy a few years ago. The similarities are striking---and cliché: Trayvon was portrayed as a 12-year old “angel” in pajamas by the media; Michael Brown has been dubbed the “Gentle Giant”; George Zimmerman, quickly labeled a ‘white Hispanic’ by the press, was accused of “tracking down and murdering” the angelic Trayvon in cold blood---you know, just out hunting black people to kill; Officer Wilson in Missouri has been accused of “executing” and “murdering” the Gentle Giant, Brown; in both cases the victims were portrayed as “unarmed black teenagers” who were simply “walking home” before they were ambushed and murdered by the bloodthirsty white killers; a frenzied, lustful media breaking its neck to perpetuate the myth of the innocent black child murdered by the racist white devil; a Negro mob using the situation as an excuse to rob, burn, steal, pillage and loot the neighborhood stores which had absolutely nothing to do with the shooting; the usual race hustler victimization pimps, Sharpton and Jackson, on the scene to get whatever spotlight they can and pretend to be relevant and important; and finally, the public conviction of the shooter prior to any investigation or any real facts being known.
In fact, misinformation to perpetuate the media myth was quick to come out. In the initial hours it was reported that the Gentle Giant was shot in the back---just days short of entering college; how tragic! But later this was revised; the autopsy showed that Brown was NOT shot in the back, but he was shot (gasp!) six times. Surely this proves that the crazed, racist Wilson was just out to murder the first poor black child he could find. It was even reported that Brown’s arms were raised in surrender when he was shot.
But wait. Much to the frenzied media’s disappointment, new information has come to light. The Gentle Giant (Brown was 6’4, 275 pounds) had violently robbed a convenience store several minutes before he was shot. Store video shows him brutally strong-arming the clerk half his size. He stole $50 worth of Swisher Sweet cigars, the wrappings of which druggies use to roll giant marijuana joints called ‘blunts’.
A CNN source close to the case has reported Wilson’s version of what happened: Brown initiated an altercation with him, struggled for his gun, then rushed him and was shot. ABC news reported that a source in the police department stated Wilson had a “serious facial injury” and Chief Tom Jackson stated that Wilson had a swelling to the side of his face, consistent with witness accounts that the Gentle Giant cold-cocked Wilson while he sat in his patrol car---exactly the way Trayvon Martin cold-cocked George Zimmerman.
The similarities to the Trayvon Martin case are illuminating. Both 17 year old Martin and 18 year old Brown were portrayed as ‘innocent children’ by fawning media yet both were violent thugs, criminals and drug users; both were returning from a store with drug paraphernalia (Martin’s ‘Skittles and iced tea’ are ingredients of a drug cocktail called ‘lean’ which he bragged about online; Brown’s cigar wrappings are used to roll joints); both were belligerent and aggressive; both physically attacked an armed man; both were shot during the struggle and died; and both had drugs in their system when they died. Trayvon Martin got just what he asked for and deserved. If Officer Wilson’s version of events proves true, so did Brown.
Brown had four bullet wounds in his right arm, running from wrist to shoulder, and two in the head, including one near the top of the head.
There are two possible scenarios. First, the racist cop Wilson decided to assassinate an innocent black teenager and Brown just happened to be the one he targeted; he got out of his patrol car, Brown raised his hands and surrendered, and Wilson unloaded six shots into him, murdering him in cold blood. From just a few yards away, Wilson managed to miss the huge 275 pound hulk of Brown’s wide body and instead systematically put four rounds into his raised right arm, then shot him in the head twice after he fell forward. Hmm; it seems that if he was so keen to murder the Gentle Giant he would have aimed for the vitals, not the raised arm.
The second possible scenario is the CNN source’s version. Wilson didn’t know about the robbery; he pulled up and asked the Gentle Giant and his friend to get out of the middle of the road, where they were walking. They refused, the officer pulled up ahead of them and stopped, then he got the call about the cigar robbery. He noticed the cigars carried by the Gentle Giant. He backed up to them and engaged them in conversation. The Gentle Giant was belligerent. Wilson attempted to get out of his car and the Gentle Giant struck him in the face and shoved him back inside. A struggle for his gun ensued (just like in the Martin case) and the gun went off. The Gentle Giant ran, the officer got out of the car to give pursuit. Brown turned and became aggressive. He charged at the officer who proceeded to fire, killing him as he fell just a few feet in front of him.
Far from having his hands raised in surrender, the arm wounds are consistent with someone rushing the officer with right arm held out as a shield; the arm shots would not have stopped Brown and he kept rushing forward; the second head shot would have entered the forehead and finally stopped the huge, rushing hulk. There is apparently audio evidence from eyewitnesses which corroborate that Brown turned and charged Wilson.
So which scenario is the more believable, the more likely? A racist, vigilante cop gunning down an innocent black teenager for fun or a cocky, violent black thug on drugs who had just robbed a store, using bad judgment and causing his own death? I believe that in the coming weeks and months it will be shown that something very like the second scenario is what happened. As Mychal Massie, the conservative black commentator observed at the time, “There is one reason, and one reason only, that Trayvon Martin is dead; he attacked a man with a licensed firearm who used it.”
But even ironclad evidence won’t dissuade the buffoons, race pimps and looters in Ferguson from displaying their low nature and shameful behavior. And it won’t stop the despicable media from another orgy of hoping for racial animus on another day, to further their racist myth. If Officer Wilson coldly hunted down and murdered the docile, surrendering Brown he deserves to face the death penalty and I hope he does. If Brown belligerently and violently attacked him however, as seems most likely from the evidence, then we should all be glad that Wilson has rid society of another violent black thug who had just committed robbery and surely would have robbed, raped or even murdered someone else eventually; good riddance.
Meanwhile, here’s a little advice for not-too-Sharpton, Jerkson, the idiot Spike Lee and those other race pimps who complain about the ‘crisis’ of young black males being ‘murdered’ by police: if you want young Negro males to stop getting shot, you might want to suggest that they stop committing violent crimes. You’ll be amazed how well that would work.
Michael Brown 2.0
Who will be "..."3.0???
Excellent article. Some excellent points are made here.
I wonder why the media and race baiters keep pushing the meme of young black men being shot by racist white cops for no reason.
And I wonder why, after the Trayvon case made them all look foolish for jumping to the conclusions that they did, that they did the same thing again, jumping to conclusions before any investigation had happened in the Brown case.
We still don’t know everything, but, we do know that this is not a case of a racist cop eager to shoot a black man for nO reason.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
If not for that, we'd all be sitting twiddling our thumbs.
As it stands, the cop hasn't been charged...but neither was Zimmerman in the beginning.
We have a star witness for Brown an accomplice in the robbery. Now we find he's wanted for another robbery and filing a false police report. The idea of Brown as a peaceful gentle giant who was shot in the back while surrendering has been proven false. We know little about the cop but even the press has had to admit, begrudgingly so, has a clean record.
It's going to get worse and uglier as this falls apart on them
I’m waiting for the juvi records to be released to put a stop to the parental units claiming he was never a thug.
If an officer went hunting for black people, wouldn’t he try to do so when no one else was looking? There are other witnesses etc. Was he going to kill them all? When he knows what happened to Zimmerman, why would he be so sure he could get away with it when Sharpton and Jackson are ready to fly anywhere at a moment’s notice?
Apparently this kind of police-hunting-kids is so rare that Brown was completely unafraid that Wilson would shoot him. Brown didn’t act like he was at all concerned from the very start nor did he by rushing the cop at the end - he was SURE the cop wouldn’t shoot him.
Bill Whittle offered up statistics that show that blacks kill whites disproportionately but large portions of the country are ready to believe it’s open season on black people. This myth that whites hunt blacks is uncontested in the media. Ah yes, the MSM, when they aren’t getting loser Obama elected they’re fanning racial animosity.
The robbery video pretty much killed the narrative. The story has been in slow death since.
Do you have a link to the article?
The link given just goes to your home page
and there is no sign of the article there.
Right - so don’t educate the public about the actual numbers of whites/blacks killed etc. in order to put things in context, instead, do what cnn does and post a story today about income inequality in Ferguson that’s “only getting worse” (i.e., race based income comparison).
Here’s the cnn link: http://money.cnn.com/2014/08/21/news/economy/black-white-inequality/index.html?hpt=hp_t4
And those closest to this devolving population are being told by their leaders (Obama, Sharpton, Jackson, Holder) that the fault of this predicament belongs to White America.
Of course, that is a false premise.
But the unwillingness of the real culprits (those closet to this culture and their leaders) to assume responsibility means that this problem will only get worse.
And it will get MUCH worse.
That said, it isn't racial.
There are plenty of fine Black men and women who find their way in America...who assimilate and becoming productive citizens. It's just the thugs and the race baiters who keep this farce alive.
All the normal black people are let down and undermined by the “squeaky wheel” thugs. I do feel sorry for them. As thuggery makes police reluctant to respond, the decent black people are further victimized. It’s not safe for the normals to report actual events or participate in jurys - they WILL be victimized by the squeaky wheel types if they vote “wrong.” WHAT A WASTE.
The only thing that Trayvon and Michael have in common is :
Crump and Chump (politically connected attnys), along with their 'Social engineering' associate to expose the case to social media,creating a false narritive.
Involvement of the "JUST-US" Dept. under Holder, and the CRS(Community Social Resources Div.)which previously organized 'out-of-towner' antagonism and protest.
Purposely having relevent information favorable to the 'accused', remain undisclosed (photos of physical injury)after release of the false narrative was considered fact.
It certainly won’t be Dillon Taylor, the white man shot by the black cop in Salt Lake City.
Don’t know who #3 will be, but one thing is for certain, it should happen according to schedule just about October 1,2014.
So he and Michael Brown had some similar tastes in smokes.
