Got it. The threat is not that the ghetto will explode if Zimmerman is acquitted. The ghetto is exploding every day. It is that the ghetto will be burned to the ground if he is not and there will be 1000 more Trayvon deaths. Either way it is a win/win for the elites.

I'd call it a win/win for civilization. 1000 less travons is a 1000 less thugs on the street.

If they want to act like animals and foul their own nests then let them. But if they take their behavior out of their own neighborhoods they should be shot. We have the right to defend ourselves.

Let me add that in any sane country George Zimmerman would be seen as a hero.

Simple solution really, the “settlers” need to get outa town!

[Portcall24]

Couple of great quotes within this piece. Here's a keeper:

"Everyone is the hero in their own story. And another:

"And so they become cops. It's vigilantism of a sort and it's a symptom of social collapse."

[Aevery_Freeman]

It's a culture clash of a primal kind. Settlers and nomads. Cops and robbers. Builders and destroyers.

Here's another.

The Sultan's nomads are looters, the societal construct is that his nomads should remain moochers and allow the legal looters, lawyers and politicians, do the looting.

Not one of Obama's sons, so he doesn't matter.

This horrific crime, which is a thousand times worse than the Zimmerman self-defense shooting, will not get one-thousandth of the national media attention.

Let's just call it what it is- a hands off form of eugenics with a built in boogey man called the creepy white ass cracka'.

George Zimmerman was looking out for his neighbors while Trayvon Martin was looking to live the thug life.

Once again Greenfield nails it.

To understand the Zimmerman case, you have to live in a neighborhood that has just enough property values to keep you paying the mortgage and just enough proximity to dangerous territories to make you feel like you're living on the frontier

Daniel, Daniel, you are still the premier wordsmith around.

[GOPJ]

It's doubtful that anyone in Zimmerman's neighborhood who weathered multiple break-ins has much sympathy for the Martin family. And that's one reason that the prosecution hasn't found any useful witnesses.

Once again Greeenfield 'gets it'....

[GOPJ]

What are cops and thugs? Cops are the protectors of the middle class and thugs prey on the middle class. Not just any part of the middle class, but the vulnerable parts, the men and women without enough money and mobility to get out when neighborhoods turn bad. And then it all comes down to territory and who can intimidate whom. Either the cops intimidate the thugs or the thugs intimidate the cops.

This is one more reason Hollywood fails most Americans. For the elites, cops are people who stop them from having 'fun'... abusing those with less, taking what they want by economic force etc. For the middle class cops are protectors - they keep the lawless on both ends of the spectrum from hurting us. Movie makers ofter side with criminals because on this issue - taking advantage of the majority in the middle - they agree.

[GOPJ]

The liberal media is made up of liberal elites.

Liberal elites feed on the middle class just like gang bangers do... Both groups want to exploit those who are relatively easy to exploit. Gang bangers use violence, liberal elites use ‘force ‘em to fight among themselves’ immigration ‘reform’.

Years ago the press came from the working class - and people trusted them. Now they're members of the rip off class and no one trust them. Well, other than fellow elites and thugs... the criminal class that holds up the elite liberal class...

1000 less travons is a 1000 less thugs on the street

Amen

Daniel, Daniel, you are still the premier wordsmith around

This horrific crime, ... will not get one-thousandth of the national media attention.

You're being charitable; a google search on his name reveals only, at best, a faint reference to a pedestrian death and a hit-and-run driver.

I found no reference to any indication as to why he may have been "in traffic".

[Travis McGee]

I feel like a Berlin Jew around 1932.

From a white teacher in a black school:

If you haven’t seen it, it’s not going to make you feel any better.

[Sioux-san]

Very South African of you ;(

[Sioux-san]

Just look at those dead eyes - no soul left in those top two murderers. If Trayvon had been arrested for the crimes he committed in Miami (rather than “promoted on up to Sanford”), he would still be alive in jail. I pray for George Zimmerman to get justice and for Joshua to get his.
