Yesterday afternoon at a press conference, the New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense circulated a wanted dead or alive poster for George Zimmerman for shooting to death a Florida teenager four weeks ago. Zimmerman, a self-proclaimed neighborhood watch captain said he accosted what he alleges was a suspicious looking black male walking through his neighborhood. He further contends the man punched him, and bloodied his nose, so Zimmerman fired a gun shot striking the man in the chest. The man was 17 year old Trayvon Martin, who would lie in the county morgue three days before police alerted his parents of their childs death.
Minister Mikhail Muhummud led the press conference, calling for the firing of Sanford Police Chief Bill Lee, the arrest of George Zimmerman and some involvement from President Obama. Muhummud stated he is the southern regional director for the New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense located in Jacksonville, Florida. While Minister Muhummud fired off a list of demands and expressed outrage over the handling of the shooting and subsequent investigation; a member of the group passed flyers to about 100 people who showed up for the press conference. Muhummud told the group he was not concerned with rumors of death threats to George Zimmerman, He should be afraid for his life (SEE http://youtu.be/ZE_i9TELcfw)
Muhummud said Im here today to appeal to the country, particularly President Obama to do the right thing while you have the power. He said that Trayvon Martin symbolizes my son.
President Obama had not addressed the issue, but had advised the Justice Department to open an investigation into the case. This morning following Muhummuds press conference, President Obama spoke about the case for the first time publicly. He echoed the sentiments of Muhummud saying If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon... (SEE http://youtu.be/efZNgSEpB1k).
When the group started chanting Black Power, Ms. Adele Azarucquoi, a white long time resident of Sanford shouted, What about White people.
Muhummud quickly said We dont hate any group. We hate injustice. We appreciate the whites who have come forth to help us.
There were less than a dozen whites, not counting media, among the mostly African American crowd. I hope there are more people who look like me at the next rally for Trayvons family, Ms. Azarucquoi said.
After the news conference Ms. Azarucquoi told a journalist, This heart of mine is sick when a kid gets killed because his skin is different from the skin of the guy who shoots him.
She then requested that a journalist walk across the street with her to speak with Police Chief Bill Lee.
Upon arrival at his office the receptionist said he wasnt in the office then said he hasnt been in the office in several days.
Later in the day Chief Lee announced he was temporarily stepping down.
Present at the news conference was Ms. Mildred Duprey de Robles, Conciliation Specialist for the United States Justice Departments Office of Community Relations. Ms. Duprey de Robles declined to speak with the press other than to say she was there as an observer.
The Justice Departments office of Community Relations is mandated to help negotiate peaceful resolutions to community problems. She appeared to have gotten an ear full and left quickly when the press insisted on more communication from her.
Members of the public who came in support of the New Black Panther Partys press conference were vocal in their outrage over the shooting and investigation. They called for the dismantling of the good ole boy network. Pastor Paul Wright, whose 1000 member church, Calvary Temple Praises, is several blocks from the police department, dropped by the press conference. When asked about the wanted dead or alive poster Pastor Wright said, I dont agree with that. We dont need to set a precedent that this is the way to resolve problems.
That doesnt look like the same kid at all.
What will Obama say about this?...
Where Zimmerman ****ed up with CHL or self defense, is you NEVER escalate a situation.
I had the privilege of serving 20 years in the USAF, and served with many fine individuals like your son-in-law. I really hope the Black Community (at-large) wakes up and realizes that the only people keeping them down are Liberals who tell them that they can't make it without their pity and support. Lowered expectations can devastate not only individuals, but communities also.
Thanks again for sharing this!
Constitution...rule of law...innocent until proven guilty. America.
I mean besides RKBA. They’ll never stop going after that.
Epiphany time for the foolish white 0bama voters...
If that's the case, the DNC is having a major case of prejac.....any - ANY - sh*t goes down before the election, even Pee Wee Herman would landslide 0bama.
Hussein’s good buddies from back during his community service days. When can we expect him to come out and chastise them? Huh? Crickets...
Amen
If/when there is a race war I have a question. As a white male, am I supposed to love or hate Obama—cause he could go boths ways on this one.
What makes me chuckle is that Obama is just as white as Zimmerman. Funny, huh?
No problem.
The other thing is that he takes a ton of BS for marrying a white chick. And it isn’t the white man and women giving it to him.
I can’t say I’ve seen it first hand, but I hear about it. All the uncle tom BS, the ‘traitor’ bs...
Here’s a man that ON HIS OWN came out of the worst of the gheto and succeeded. No they aren’t rich by any stretch. But they are OK. So if he did it, again, ON HIS OWN with no AA bonuses or special Sharpton aided crap, why can’t anyone?
Answer? He wanted it bad enough and did it. No more, no less. Just like the vast majority of successful people of any color anywhere in the world.
There is a reckoning coming for the libs. They know it and that’s why BO and CO. is ramping up the BS. The lies just do not work when people like him exist - and others see his success. They can’t work. Not forever.
Kidding aside, What makes you think they care about another election?
Just to add...
Take the phrase “I cannot believe the Dens did.....”
and think how many times you heard/thought some version of it since 06 when Pelousy took over.
Now honestly, BS aside, does the sentence...
“I cannot believe the Dems declared Martial Law and suspended the Constitution...”
... REALLY seem that far fetched?
They will reap what they sow...
Considering what percentage they are of the population, I think their chances of success are slim to zero.
Fine. Cry ‘havoc’, and let slip the dogs of war....
If the POS was lily white or pea green, the revulsion wouldn't vary an atom.

But in reply to the jest in your post, I'd advise assuming tactical hatred,
thereby assuring yourself a favorable defensive posture regardless the enemy's vagaries.
lol
Is it time to start trashing the dead kid?
They can try. All it’ll do is get a lot of folks killed...
Is this actually a picture of him? Where did it come from? Any more?
