Just a little reminder of what the true horrors of racist violence look like: http://floppingaces.net/2007/05/13/rape-mutilation-and-murder/ Of course, obastard et al and the media couldn’t care less about that type of thing...

Didn’t this incident occur about a month ago?

Yes, it did.

But most racial crimes in this country are black against black, or black against white; the press and black communists have difficulty finding any crimes where the perp is white and the victim black.

I ditto what tigers eye said:
Very well done.
I live in central FL not far from Sanford. As I have stated on other post our local news is the one that blew this out of proportion. Mainly the ABC local channel 9 in Orlando.
It then went national Jackson & Sharpton got involved and the rest is history.
I will be very surprised if we don't have some more blood shed over this before it is over. The blood will be on the local TV stations. The people marching are too stupid to accept the truth. In their minds Zimmerman shot the kid in the back and murdered him in cold blood. They won't accept the truth. . . . .

The news here (in Orlando) just said that Zimmerman shot Travon after Travon punched him.
They still won't tell the truth. Zimmerman shot the kid as he and the kid were struggling over the gun. The kid saw it when he pulled Zimmermans shirt over his head. Zimmerman had no choice it was him or the kid. Zimmerman won.
To all doubters this is all in the police report. . . . . .

Former NAACP leader C.L. Bryant is accusing Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton of “exploiting” the Trayvon Martin tragedy to “racially divide this country.”

“His family should be outraged at the fact that they’re using this child as the bait to inflame racial passions,” Rev. C.L. Bryant said in a Monday interview with The Daily Caller.

Looks like the truth is slowly coming out. Mama trying to make $$ off dead son doesn't help.

“MYTH: Martin should have retreated.”

Shouldn’t that have been Zimmerman?

Has anybody else noticed that since the story of Trayvon Martin’s death became an overnight viral race baiting lightening rod non news story, what happened to Fast and Furious? Is this what Holder needed to get the heat off- a discussion about race? What about Obamacare? $4 gas? I think we’ve been set up by an expert con. The media and political pundits are creating divisiveness for a wag the dog scenario, that if we’re not careful and lose focus.

Every public commentator from the president on down should be ashamed of the way their public comments have inflamed the situation. I hope Zimmerman is either not charged or found not guilty and sues every one of them for defamation.

The Today Show walked this story back this morning. Ann Curry looked put out. They even showed a nice photo of Zimmerman.

It has now been reported that the police report was leaked by a whistleblower. Love it!

The city of Sanford has a site and they have provided a set contemporaneous reports of the Sanford Police Department documents and 911 calls that can be found:

http://www.sanfordfl.gov/index.html

Under “Trayvon Martin Investigation” Consolidated information with regard to this tragic incident.

The police reports include burglary and home invasion reports. Also a 21 page document regarding Neighborhood Watches.
Particularly frightening to me was the home invasion of a young woman. It looked like the “gated community” was under siege by the Hoodlum Community.
Report re victim named Bertalan,Oliva dated 8/3/2011.
Address is 1840 Retreat View Circle. The Bertalan report has a good number of pages but the Narrative Section summarizes action.

Of course such information is not presented by the MSMerde nor the “Negro Community” because it does fit their political purpose.

One mistake: "More likely, Martin waited until Zimmerman was off the phone with police, and then ambushed him, as Zimmerman alleges."

Zimmerman was not ambushed. According to his OWN statement, He and Martin exchanged words, then Martin punched him.

According to the neighborhood twitter account, the Neighborhood Watch (presumably George) solved four burglaries leading to an arrest just one week before the shooting.

It’s a myth that George was calling 911 for no reason prior to this incident.
