“‘which told jurors that Zimmerman was allowed to use deadly force when he shot the teen not only if he actually faced death or bodily harm, but also if he merely thought he did.’”

I wonder if their suspicion is that the possible fall-out of all this means open season on all the “gangsta’s” out there who daily parade themselves in varying degrees of intimidation. Rather than take a good hard look at what is happening to the hard-wiring of today’s youth with the affects of rap or hard-core metal and ultra-violent movies and video games, the attention on guns and stand-your-ground laws puts the focus on those who try to go about their daily lives not encountering/not offending the over-hyped, judgmentally-challenged youth of today who, for the sin of walking in ‘my ‘hood’ or daring to “disrespect” by making eye-contact, will assail you with a threatening glare or vile words...or worse.

Exactly
I heard some on MSNBC say that because of this everyone’s son going to the store to get Skittles wearing a hoodie is at risk of being gunned down, and that EVERY parent in the USA should be worried about thos precident.

Kids dont were hoodies where I live, not even the black kids. Why dont THEY just call for banning their sale ? Problem solved.

He’s the number one racist and the ends justify the means.

Pray for America to Wake Up

Not everyone’s son who is wearing a hoodie and going to the store to fetch some Skittles and Watermelon drink are under the influence of/habitual users of “Purple Drank”.

That being said, I do talk to my 15 year old [bi-racial] son about his public persona, the attitude he projects and how he wishes to be perceived.

It's Time for President Obama to Give Up on His Race-Uniting Promise

By his actions since he was first elected, he may as well give up on that promise.

I think the mainstream culture in America is way over the “race issue”.

It’s the urban sub-culture and their “leadership” that are holding onto it and fomenting it.

Indeed - my first thought on reading the title was “GIVE up” on it. He never even intended to be racially uniting.

But - never expect leftists to admit to their real beliefs and agenda.

bray, he’s half white and half black and can’t even unite himself. He’s less than half a man no matter what he does.

David is being far, far too kind to Obastard. He has promised, and delivered, nothing but racial strife since he first reared his ugly head. I hear people say Bathhouse Barry has set back racial progress 50 years, and I disagree. I'm pegging it at 140 years, to Reconstruction.

And another thing...FTA: Trayvon Martin's death was terribly tragic. No it wasn't. As the evidence that was suppressed at trial shows, George Zimmerman did Florida a huge public service that night by permanently removing one major-league thug from society. Martin was well on his way to a life of savage crime.

The guy doesn’t always lie.

That's how it is with pathological liars. They tell the truth just often enough to throw everybody off. I know, I'm related to one and I've known how this works all my life.

I drove through a part of town recently that has ALWAYS been known as black town. Not a black person anywhere. Mexican grocery stores and Mexican women pushing baby strollers down the street with 3 or 4 more kids following.

The same thing is gradually happening in Newark NJ; they elected Cory Booker by putting together a coalition of various Hispanics, whites, and “others” (overthrowing the black machine candidate, Sharpe James).

Saw 2 interviews with black women demonstrating in Newark; they were from Irvington & East Orange. They don’t have the numbers for a good old-fashioned riot, and they have a black mayor in Newark who is conspicuously quiet because he is trying to attract businesses and taxpayers to Newark (and these demonstrations aren’t helping).

Rule #1 in Journalism 101—Verify anything you read by as many sources are practical.Rule #2 If your editor is a “progressive” and supports the Race Baiters like Eric Holder, the Black Panthers,Muslim Brotherhood,SPLC ,Democratic Party, Communist Party et all. Then it is safer to write what you think they want to read than anything the facts suggest.Rule #3 in todays Media anybody with a name like Castro can’t be bad.( Or Tray van ,Or Jesse Jackson,Juan Williams, Eric Holder,Barack Hussein ......)
