Agreed. And Trump was starting to expose it. He was shining a spotlight on its failures. IMO, that is the real reason for the riots of 2020. Democrat/Leftists/Communists were losing the grip on the black vote and had to exaggerate white cop on black crime.

Dead thug. But what about the perjury charges against the family. They should be behind bars.

That is an angle I had not previously considered. I thought they were revving up Black hatred simply to help them in the election, but it very well may have also been the consequence of them seeing the black vote slipping away from them.

Very astute perception on your part.

Zimmerman should sue them again.

The media lies. It’s what they do. That is not what the recording said, nor was the “stand your ground” law even a factor in that case.

Lies, lies, and more lies.

They are bums, just like the dead thug. No money there to get. Same for the fake girlfriend. Also a lying thug.

But, they should be prosecuted.

Wrong. Ahmed Arbery was not the aggressor in that case.

Your claim here is a variation of "Who ya gonna believe? Me? Or your lying eyes?"

Ahmed Arbery was absolutely the aggressor in that case. Arbery charged at a man, punched him in the face, and attempted to seize his shotgun.

I absolutely reject the notion that anything which happened prior is relevant to Arbery attacking the younger McMichael.

Arbery did attack the younger McMichael, and he was the aggressor in the confrontation which got him shot.

The media invented the term "white Hispanic" to label George Zimmerman, although he is one-eighth black and three-eights indigenous Peruvian...but he has a German surname. I've always wondered if Al Sharpton jumped into the fray because he assumed that Zimmerman is Jewish because of his surname (he isn't, but Bob Dylan, born Robert Zimmerman, is). Homer Plessy of the famous Plessy v. Ferguson lawsuit was only one-eighth black but he is always described as black.

For all of Trump's faults, he was asking the right questions and the bureaucracies hated him for it. Europe, NATO, The US government and all of its agencies felt threatened. This is also why some RINOs disliked him too. He was fighting β€œthe system.”

Trump wasn't a politician in the traditional sense. And he didn't need to be president or be part of the system.

Had Zimmerman displayed his firearm when first approached by Martin the whole incident would have been defused. Martin would have mouthed off then bugged out.

Injuries the press HID and DENIED he had.

Trayvon was pounding George Zimmerman’s head into the concrete sidewalk, as witnessed first hand by a tenant, just a few feet away, who told Trayvon to STOP attacking Zimmerman.

George Zimmerman was RAILROADED! It is actually amazing that he is not an innocent man in prison for life.

Only one day in, I saw the news video AT THE SCENE with George right there, in the rain, Trayvon’s dead body under a bright yellow tarp, with a can of Adirondack Watermelon Flavor “Fruit Juice Cocktail” NOT TEA!, on top either holding down the tarp or holding saint Trayvon from ascending immediately into heaven. I guess the former since the press had not deified him yet.

The police determined it to be a righteous shoot and let George go home.

The next morning, the same news outfit was back filming the scene, now in daylight. It was very clear to see the proximity of the incident with the tenant’s, witnesses, vantage point. They interviewed the ear/eye tenant witness, through the door, and was told RIGHT THEN that Trayvon, THE PUNK, was the aggressor and was beating the crap out of George.

This was DAY ONE! George should have NEVER been arrested, let alone charged with ANYTHING!

The rest, as they say, is history.

"They are a Liberal vote creating machine."

We agree on this point.

Very good. So you do grasp that racial politics are and have always been a tool to keep liberals in power?

10th anniversary celebration of a guy who attempted murder, no wonder they support BLM riots.
