I wanted to schmack the hell outta Hannity over this incident. He really needs to at least TRY to be informed before opening his piehole on the airwaves. Kinda reminiscent of Obowma’s standard routine.

By calling Zimmerman “white”, what, exactly, is the point you are trying to make?

No, you made a false statement. Here is YOUR comment: “Zimmerman is only HALF white.”

Put up or shut up.

I thought that Zimmerman shot the 6’2” HS football thug in self defense. Zimmerman was on the ground, he had grass stains on his back and it was probably his voice screaming on the 911 call. The thug was out on the prowl during a suspension, while the mixed race Zimmerman had previously been involved in helping to catch a thief as a citizen crime watcher in his crime riddled community. The facts will come out in time hopefully to prevent a race war instigated by Hussein and his media sycophants.

Well....if his mother is a latin, that would make him only half white, assuming, of course, that you consider Jews to be “white” as well!

Bottom line...he isn’t all white any more than Obama is all white.

Good points all. Also, is Obama saying that all blacks look alike? His son would look just like Trayvon? That sounds kind of racist.

Only the highlighted part was written by Garrett. The rest of the column was written by a loon. Here's the Garrett column http://www.nationaljournal.com/whitehouse/obama-s-trayvon-moment-one-for-the-history-books-20120323

Exactly. I’m waiting for a photo of a 17 year old. As long as they keep putting out 12 year old photos, I feel like we’re not getting the full story.

And it’s not like he doesn’t have the same access to the info that we do, not to mention staffers tasked with providing that info. Either he needs to start vetting the info his staffers provide him, or maybe he needs to fire one of the staffers.

I DO know his forum on his website is run by out-of-control mods with a “God Complex”. They ban conservatives there for any excuse at all.

Hannity really needs to ‘get a clue’.

Re: Zimmerman’s ethnicity....

here’s what his own father said:

Media reports have increasingly begun to identify the shooter, 28-year-old George Zimmerman, not as “white” as he was originally identified, but as Latino after his father identified him as such to a Florida newspaper.

http://multiamerican.scpr.org/2012/03/with-shooters-ethnicity-race-becomes-an-even-bigger-part-of-the-trayvon-martin-story/

Seems to me....his own father ought to know better than some “know-it-all” poster claiming that Zimmerman is white.....

eh?

Of course Mr. Zimmerman is white.

Dad Jewish, of course “white”, Mom’s Spanish ancestry, of course “white”, plus possibly unknown percentage of Amerindian which anthropologists classify proto or neo mongoloid, same as what used to be referred to as oriental.

I just don’t know why several freepers keep trying to disqualify him as being white, except they want to prove the media wrong who say correctly he is white. We all know the media is stressing that he’s “white” as opposed to the guy’s “hispanic” heritage, so they can say Trayvon was killed by a “white” guy. The media can’t make me react, and try to throw Mr. Zimmerman out of being “white”, like they can some freepers.

we seemed to have avoided the polarization that often accompanies high-profile racial incidents

He hasn't been paying attention, has he?

Um....you’re beating a dead (and retarded) horse here.

What part of “his own father claimed he was Latino” are you incapable of comprehending?

I noticed that while trying to stomach his friday show that not a single person called in or spoke in defense of Zimmerman.

Had to be by design I’m thinking.

Well, considering that Zimmerman is the one that was calling for help, on the ground, getting bloodied, that means the listeners either didn’t care or didn’t know....since the REAL story hasn’t exactly been touted by lamestream media outlets.

By design, do you mean that Hannity has taken the pro-Trayvor stance officially? If so, I will stop listening too.

Me thinks Mr. Gnat is a nubee troll. He wants so bad for Zimmerman to be all white so he can stir up his racist hoodie boys to do their thing.

Hey ..... we may be laughing at the Prez ......

However it might be a good idea to note that he was actually the first out of the gate to make his carefully worded statement which is actually a briliant political move on his behalf. Unfortunately for the GOP this actually will read in the electorate as him appearing as a leader with his Clintonesque "I Feel Your Pain" statement.

This should poll well with his base.

In the meantime the GOP is still concerned about Etch-a-Scetches.
