“Herman Cain shows why he would be a far superior president than the current occupant of the White House.”
For some reason, we crucify our best leaders...
Gun control. And the push for it.
That’s what all of this seems to be about.
On the surface, it appears this was a senseless killing, Cain said.
Im not an investigator, but I believe all the facts should be out on the table before we draw any more conclusions in this case, he continued.
“but it appears this was a cold blooded killing that police thoroughly bungled”
If this is how you see it then you’ve not been keeping up on the facts. Stop listening to the MSM on this and do a little reading into what happened. The evidence and the facts point to this shooting being a justified case of self defense.
Just read some of the threads here on FR and you’ll see what I mean.
He once again shows why I am glad he is out of the race. Black trumpets all for Cain. From Rick Perry’s rock to this. He assumes it is a senseless killing, and Zimmerman should have been arrested. Besides him, of the current candidates have handled this right. They all assume the worst about Zimmerman, and the best about Martin. GOP is nothing but DNC light.
“For some reason, we crucify our best leaders...”
Cain crucified himself. He should have know he would be subject to a full body cavity search.
A quibble: A killing that occurs in the course of a fistfight is by definition not "cold-blooded."
Working just from the facts that aren't seriously disputed, it's evident why the police didn't automatically arrest a veteran Neighborhood Watch captain who had already called for police back-up, and who had obviously been jumped and beaten. Especially when the dead guy the cops found was the real onea gold-toothed, tattooed, 6-footer with hair on his upper lip and probably skinned knucklesrather than the PhotoShopped 12-year-old whose picture has been promoted.
More facts are always nice. But as far as Zimmerman's actions go, only a political opportunist would conclude that the case is any more complicated than that Trayvon picked the wrong guy to punch.
What would be productive to explore is whether the recent rash of burglaries in the gated compound was actually the work of Trayvon. He had a contact therehis father's girlfriendand he had been suspended from school three times, including for truancy. And he was caught at school, not just with a marajuana baggie, but with a screwdriver and women's jewelry. That suggests either a burglar or a poofter. I guess time will tell.
I even voted for him.
???
Same here. He says too many dumb things.
How I would have loved to have seen him there..infectious good disposition, a pistive man. Maybe light on policiy areas but if you have a good team in place, it could have been done. The Left knoew this, they destroyed him..Axelrod and Allred, completely coordinated attack from on high. NO ONE will convince me otherwise.
I hope he is given a role in the next adminstration. We need more Herman Cains.
spellcheck is my friend...I know.
Yeah, I was disappointed with his comments. Your comment in the money.
Your retarded headline needs to be shot.
Police departments don’t generally let a murderer walk free if they have evidence of the crime. While we don’t have all the facts here, we definitely have plenty of evidence of media bias. It’s so blatant. They don’t even hide the fact that they aren’t really interested in the truth. That’s not sensational enough. Back when I went through school, reporters were only supposed to report facts. Opinion went on the editorial page. Our media, like many modern institutions, is a complete joke. Unfortunately, I won’t be laughing when blood is shed over this crap!
Just for the record, Zimmerman was grilled 5 hours for the shooting. I think I read he was cuffed before he got into the police car. I might have that detail wrong; there’s so much stuff out there that is not true.
