I’m sure he was simply reaching for his Skittles. After all, look at his baby pictures on tv 24/7.

I sure as hell wish the ass wipe media would have done their job before the race baiters had upset so many people......

Of course, it all serves a purpose. Obama’s White House advisor, the MSNBC host Al Sharpton, he of the Tawana Brawley debacle, is exposed once again as a fake. Jesse too.

And the Florida/national media, too...shown to be amplifiers of the politics of racism and hate.

Related to the above cartoon is this excerpt Here

Meanwhile, the president hasn't suggested any national soul searching is necessary in the
case of a 13-year old white boy who had gasoline poured on him and then was set on fire by two black teens who said "You get what you deserve, white boy." The boy's
offense? Possibly it stemmed back to an incident in which he tried to answer a question
about Black History Month in school, and his black teacher snapped at him "What would you know about it? You're not our race!"

You can bet it's not because they want to keep his SAT test scores private. BTW, what kind of family has a "family lawyer" on call. One that has to deal with periodic criminal complaint's perhaps?

Most likely, when the son was shot, the parents had lawyers calling and offering to represent them in any wrongful death suit against the housing development, Zimmerman, the police, and anybody else they could think of.

I’ve been wondering that as well. I suspect they may have found drugs in his system.

'You get what you deserve, white boy': Boy, 13, doused in gasoline and set alight in racially-motivated attack

This incident was mentioned today by Simon Conway afternoon drive-time host of Des Moines WHO 1040AM.

The undoctored 911 call. The word at 2:18 is "punks" not the racial slur on the doctored tape.

>>>I’m asking everyone to refrain from responding to my posts on this case from previous days, now and in the future, meaning posts from today and future days.<<<

I was goofing on the complex time frame of your request.

Sorry, meant no offense.

OK, that’s what I finally figured.

It was a sort of insurance, meaning that tomorrow I cannot be responsible for what is say today, and the day after tomorrow for what I say tomorrow.

After having read a few of the kid’s tweets I’m very much inclined to believe the shooter.I’m inclined to believe that that kid was capable of something like that.

No, according to his own brother, he was suspended for beating a bus driver senseless.

How do we know this? If true that's a **very** revealing fact.

Not only that, but according to the Miami Herold, Martin also wrote “WTF” in graffiti on his locker along with another boy. Also had women’s jewelry on him(Possibly from home burglaries) WOW what a model student and a upstanding citizen this chubby cheek kid is turning out to be

But this is *exactly* how I'd expect a 17 year old son of Osama Obama to be.

It’s self-defense. Period.

If this is,in fact,exactly what happened then the guy obviously should be in the clear.But now that our Community Organizer-In-Chief and the DOJ are involved this will be milked *at least* through the election.

You can’t write a coherent sentence, let alone make sense
