Being that Florida is a stand-your-ground state meaning that you do not have a duty to retreat when posed with danger if you are legally allowed to be there and all the evidence showed that George was defending himself, no charges were brought against him that night. It wasn’t until later when then President Obama called governor Rick Scott and demanded that he find somebody in the state of Florida that would prosecute George. After consulting multiple district attorneys, the Governor found one in Jacksonville that would take the case.
...
Thanks Rick /s
I remember St. Orange Drank.
Trayvon was a gangbanger thug problem teenager who tried to play the Knockout Game on someone walking through the neighborhood. He joked with this girlfriend on his cellphone just before he attacked Zimmerman that he thought he was gay.
That is what the evidence at trial showed.
So he talks in confidence with somebody he finally trusts after 7 years,.....and they immediately run to post what he said on the Internet.
Just a small correction. It’s Phil Robertson, not Robinson.
Finish later - time for burgers now. Thanks for posting.
Since Ammoland is a blog, that is what they do. Why do you have a problem with that?
You think CNN would have conducted a fair interview?
What is the matter with you idiots anyway?
The leadership of the so called political opposition (Republican) will wonder why as they lose a crucial election because of their inability to stand on principles. When Presidential actions should have been denouced and the police defended. When as President Obama initiated his racial division policy through the abuse of the “Bully Pulpit’ which went unchalanged and subsequently led to attacks on law enforcement. The only person to courageously do so was Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke and has because he is black received the “Uncle Tom” treatment
Clarke decried Obama’s abuse of the “Bully Pulpit” to create racial division which wound up using other similar incidents such as Ferguson MO and NYC.. Where Obama supported by the media would defend the attacker resisting arrest killed in the struggle over a law officers gun. Alledging the attacker was an “unarmed victim” of police brutality because he was black. Subsequently. There were continuous attacks on police ending up in a score of deaths.It Began when Obama used a non descript incident known as The Zimmerman trial and encouraged racial division through his twice use of the “Bully Pulpit”
. Obama defended the black attacker who was killed (a 17 year old 5’11 175 pound Trayvon Martin) by a 40 something year old 5’6” black hispanic (Jorge Zimmerman) working security in an integrated housing complex that was attacked by Martin knocking Zimmerman to the ground and the black youth was killed in a struggle over Zimmerman’s gun.
The media portayed the incident as Martin was an innocent black youth murdered in cold blood because he was black and the guard as a white hispanic guarding an exclusive white “gated”community .
Obama used the incident to declare racial division by using the “Bully Pulpit” declaring Martin was a victim of whites who could have been; First; “his son”, then; Obama himself.
When that inflammatory defense was picked by black gangs It also wound up and was used as an excuse to commit a score of racial assaults ending in deaths and serious injuries.
All the while this was happening in various areas of the country Such as the murder of an Australian visitor from Melbourne Christopher Lane killed while exercising on a Duncan Oklahoma street by members of the black gang known as the Crypts.
Such assaults were described by the press as “black youths with nothing better to do” Although there were some gang members who admitted their assaults were “for Trayvon” but met by stony silence from the democrats or denial from MSM because initially it was dismissed as a Obama miss-speak. As if he didn’t rely on a teleprompter for carefully prepared text checked out by advisers giving him the facts.
Shamefully members of the opposition so called Republicans chose not to condemn this but convenient to ignore. Thus demonstrate they are politically dysfunctional. Unwilling to work with or even recognize legitimate concerns from what they call the tea party who in reality are the Reagan voters of 2016 and unable to congeal into a unified working political unit. They did not learn from 2012,2014 and some continue to blow off 2016.
From my essay in this subject in http://www.theusmat.com/index.htm
Response to the title.
That's understandable, maybe you should concentrate on the entire gist of the article before posting...
Don't worry, posting before reading is a common trait around here.......
You should know that, you've been around here long enough so that doesn't excuse your ignorance.......
Nor your rush to judgment. Thanks.
yeah, that rick scott note pissed me off. what a suck up POS.
I like GZ and read every bit of info there was when the events were taking place. Without a doubt, he was innocent and needed to be exonerated.
I love the story about the Robertson meeting too; really great and love that GZ is a believer and I’ll see him in eternity!
The video the MSM loved to NOT show. Trayvon Martin was a tall, imposing figure. Not the cuddly little ball of fluff portrayed by the Left.
. Obama defended the black attacker who was killed (a 17 year old 511 175 pound Trayvon Martin) by a 40 something year old 56 black "WHITE" hispanic (Jorge Zimmerman)
Personally, being of Puerto Rican decent, (via my father born 1920, & raised in Puerto Rico.) I had NEVER heard the term "White Hispanic," until the former main lame stream lying media, got hold of this incident.
I grew up in (late 1950's to late 1970's) BRENTWOOD, Long Island, New York. At the time living there, Brentwood was the largest Puerto Rican population, outside of Puerto Rico.
At its height we had ~950 members, the numbers lessening over time, likely as the racists posting their bile came to realize that they were not welcome.
At present we're around 673 likes and 641 follows.
As the trial ended I pondered what I could do with this community page and ready-made audience that could carry on the page in a new and positive direction.
I redefined the 'about' page description to ...
"GZ is no longer the primary focus of this page.
These days we are examining racism in the larger societal context,
and Promoting Unity and Mutual Respect."
I do expose racists but more importantly, I think, high-light folks of all hues working to bring folks together not divide them.
I only rarely post news about GZ and truth be told I'd rather not have to deal with him any longer,
but there are occasions when articles like this are published that I feel some responsibility to the group to post them,
and so I thank you for posting it and I will share it.
It is unfortunate that TM made a bad decision and after arriving at the safety of his father's girlfriend's house
decided not to stay there but to go back and confront GZ.
The racist hate-mongers wish to ignore TM's own responsibility in causing his demise, doing a grave disservice to other young men
by not teaching them the correct lesson to be derived from the GZ/TM encounter and perhaps leading to other unnecessary and tragic deaths.
Yes and Pam Bondi, who gets a lot of press as a conservative, helped push that through.
