On Tuesday, Georgetown University Professor Michael Eric Dyson told MSNBC’s Martin Bashir that he believes, if the racial distinctions were reversed in the case against George Zimmerman for the 2012 murder of Trayvon Martin, the public’s reaction to the cases would be dramatically different. He added that the “George Zimmermans of the world continue to get away” with “the killing of our children” without facing justice.
Dyson began by lamenting the course of court proceedings in which, he said, Martin was “dying again the death of a thousand qualifications, which is what our legal system is about.”
“I don’t have much faith in the processes here, because it doesn’t really speak — they don’t really speak to the issues that are being raised here,” he continued.
Dyson said that, if Zimmerman is acquitted of murder charges, “then the children of poor and people of color in this country do not have the same quality of justice as given to those who are able to muster up resources and defend themselves against such a charge.”
Dyson said that Zimmerman was only arrested and charged in the first due to the public “outcry,” leaving him with little hope that a jury would find him guilty. “Part of the moral victory was getting him into the courtroom to be subject to criminal proceedings to begin with,” Dyson added.....

“Isn’t Zimmerman a “people of color”? Or does this idiot mean there is only one kind of “people of color” color? I’m off white...isn’t that a color?”
I’m sorry - (a.), he is not he “right” color to suite the narrative; and (b.) “Latino” is not a race in this particular situation (although, strangely enough, it is in others), for the same reason.
So now they got Professors of Gibmedats!
Don’t be saying there’s no progress!
Charlie Manson predicted it a long time ago.
Hey hey hey! It’s another hysterical black pseudo-intellectual.
Who is this clown? He can’t be listening to the evidence. If he were, he’d have shut his mouth a long time ago. Not one scrap of evidence goes against Zimmerman.
Oyyy....ping.
I tan really nice so am I included in the color thing?
More proof these idiots don't want justice done, they want a "moral victory". Can't send more guilty black men to jail. It's the turn of the White-Hispanics.
Just a comment (not directed at anyone):
Well don’t let your kids run the streets and burglarize houses. If you see them doing Fight Club or posting negative racist rants online it should make you pay attention. If you notice your kid has horrible grades and got busted for selling marijuana thats a problem. Of course if you’re kicking back and drinking a few beers and smoking pot around your kids, can’t hold down a job and live off welfare benefits and you wonder why your kid is out at all hours of the night and always seems to have money or jewelry or both YOU might be the problem.
I have darker skin than he does.
I thought there were only 10 murders over the 4th?
I can't listen to most black people that are featured prominently in the media. They have no credibility. Saw Jesse Jackson the other night commenting on Paula Deen's "road to redemption". J.J., the pimp, needs to go jump in a lake. It doesn't matter if it's the L.A. riots, O.J., Duke Lacrosse, or Trayvon. It doesn't matter what the facts are. All that matters is race.
Yep. It has become quite clear that for the most part, they are totally obsessed with race to the point of lunacy.
No actual fact from this situation matters at all, the only thing that does seem to matter is their erroneous and false speculation.
As soon as I hear it start, and yes, it really only has to be even a single word, I know what’s coming and I walk away or turn it off. I don’t care to listen anymore. In fact, I will even say to them shut the Hell up about it and learn how to think critically.
One of the untold stories of Trayvon is that his grieving parents have not been the ones raising him all these years. That inconvenient truth has been buried by the MSM.
““George Zimmermans of the world continue to get away” with “the killing of our children” without facing justice.

Maybe it’s me,but I don’t think of a 6’tall 17 year old as a child.
.
I've been thinking the same thing. Poor Charlie was just ahead of his time.
And two of Charlie Manson’s biggest fans are Billy the Bomber Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn. Dig it!
No. He is a white black hispanic.
His mom and his uncle are, in fact, darker than ObaMao.
Hence the successful effort by the prosecution to keep them out of the court room other than when they were on the stand.
