Everyone is unhappy with what happened, even the man who defended his lifebut this just keeps the problem going on and on and on and on.... Which works quite well for the strategery of certain politicians. Including, or especially, one whose father was a British Colonial citizen.

"Wonder who paid for their plane tickets to the Left Coast?"
At rallies and church services, thousands of dollars in pledges have been made to help them pay expenses including travel to events.

No go on their plan to whip up the unwashed masses on this non-issue. Even the local media kept playing up the Rodney King riots, linking to the Trayvon case. So very transparent are these race-mongers and the complicit racist media.
Too bad for them that people even in the "Crenshaw" district are working their asses off trying to support their families. Sometimes surviving is the priority - an under-reported story these days in Obamaville.

Zimmerman was named the captain of the neighborhood watch team. That means he coordinated meetings and crime data for the neighbors use in their watching duties. Awareness of the crimes, locations and descriptions of perps is key to effective neighborhood watch groups.
To: SaraJohnson
Right, and I think captain is a reasonable title for his position. But whoever wrote the article calls him a "commander", which strikes me as slightly overblown, and which IMO subtly implies hypervigilance. It reminds me of how they use the term "gated community" to sneak a connotation of privileged white separatism into the story.

How many black males were shot and/or killed that night?
These rallies are just a prelude to what is going to happen when GZ walks.
They have this nonsense “blame deflection” rallies in St. Louis from time to time. They march a little bit, release some balloons, make garish memorials with stuffed animals tied on a street light next to where the decedant lay, and four blocks over, it’s the ever present sound of someone burning through a magazine.
This is going on in every major and minor city in the US.
It will NEVER end.

Then you are quite naive. The reason the loaded term “gated community” is featured in nearly every press account is that it helps them form a narrative. The fact that there’s a front gate isn’t newsworthy otherwise.
To: Free ThinkerNY
As usual, conveniently ignoring the fact that most violent crimes against blacks and within their community are committed by other blacks.

Mom and Dad are pimping their thug sons death for profit just like AL and Jessie.Yep - I wonder if it will ever strike them that they are capitalizing on their son's death. If it does, I wonder if it will bother them. I don't recall any stories about the "father" raising hell to find out where Cute-ums was while he lay in the morgue for over a week.

Any honkies there? How about Samoans? Did MS-13 sit in the audience? Any Vietnamese or Eskimoes there? If not, the NAACP is racist, LA is racist and the racist South L.A. church is racist.
Racist! Racist! Racist!

The fact that theres a front gate isnt newsworthy otherwise. I'm sure that if gated was left out, you would have a conspiracy theory as to why the press failed to mention this is a gated community.

Further digging into the Zimmerman family tree now shows that the Trayvon death is a Jewish Peruvian brown white black-on-black shooting.
Endless possibilities for rallies for the next two years.

You're right. The media doesn't have an agenda. “Gated community” insinuates nothing that helps advance their spin on the story. It's just a neutral term like white hispanic. Thanks for straightening me out.
