George Zimmerman’s acquittal Saturday night on all charges in the killing of a black teenager, Trayvon Martin, sparked deep emotional reactions across the country Sunday, resurrecting an intense national debate about the role of race and racism in American life.
=======================================================================
Declaring 'enough is enough' after one of the worst shooting sprees last week in Chicago, the Rev. Jesse Jackson, Rev. Al Sharpton and other civil rights leaders marched on the streets of the Windy City in protest against the wave of black-on-black crime plaguing that city, demanding tougher prison sentences for criminals -- WE INTERRUPT THIS 'TWILIGHT ZONE' EPISODE to bring you a reality-based news bulletin!Liberals are stunned and dismayed that George Zimmerman was acquitted of all false charges. The Holder Justice Department is looking into filing spurious civil rights charges against Zimmerman because he was acquitted. And because, if Obama had a son, he wouldn't look like George Zimmerman.
The three main reasons for Zimmerman's acquittal were: (1) no evidence, (2) he was innocent, (3) no evidence. There were six women on the jury but Nancy Grace was not one of them.
The Zimmerman shooting case marked the first time in history that liberals weren't claiming that the gun acted on its own.
Interestingly, when the identities of the D.C. snipers became known -- one of them named Muhammad -- libbies were quick to forgive and forget, insisting the two were just misunderstood murderers. Besides, they only intended to shoot white people. With Zimmerman, libbies couldn't wait to lynch him.
Liberals constantly lecture and harangue conservatives about the sacredness of the jury system. They wanted to try KSM before a regular jury in New York City because there's no way a jury could get it wrong. Unless libbies disagree with the verdict. Harry Reid said that since Zimmerman was acquitted the Justice Department should prosecute him and that "this isn't over with." He also said, "I support the system." Say, maybe we should look into Harry Reid's activities and prosecute him. I support the system.
From the media-manufactured 'narrative', to the assumed "facts" about the case, all crumbled in the courtroom. Short list:
-- Liberals argue hysterically that Trayvon Martin was this innocent little darling armed with nothing more than Skittles and a soda. Evidence from the prosecution's own witnesses showed the innocent little, 6'2", 160-pound lad was very busy committing battery against Zimmerman that night. Moreover, angelic Trayvon got suspended from school for possessing a burglary tool and women's jewelry. (Jesse Jackson says Trayvon "was doing all the right stuff");
-- We hear endlessly from the media that this was a tragedy all the way around. The media yammer on and on about the tragedy of the death of Trayvon Martin. Obama, a self-proclaimed "black" man, called it a tragedy yesterday because the 'self-proclaimed Hispanic' Hispanic wasn't the one who got killed. It wasn't a tragedy. This was the PREVENTION of a tragedy. It would have been tragic had Trayvon succeeded in bashing Zimmerman's head on the cement enough times to have killed him. Or if an innocent man had been convicted to appease a mob;
-- Liberals insist Zimmerman should have stayed in his vehicle while a suspicious character fitting the profile of perps plaguing the neighborhood with a rash of burglaries was allowed to roam around. Just like every good neighborhood watch captain would do. Then it turns out that Trayvon had 4 whole minutes to get away (the time between Zimmerman losing sight of Trayvon and when the innocent pacifist lad decided to batter the man he allegedly was afraid of);
-- During the 14 months before the Zimmerman incident, that neighborhood had experienced about 8 burglaries. (Out of force of habit, Janet Napolitano noted the neighborhood had never been more secure);
-- Zimmerman 'tracking' Trayvon doesn't vitiate a claim of self-defense since what matters was Zimmerman's state of mind while getting pummeled. Contrast that with Ted Kennedy's state of mind while drowning a girl and Bill Clinton raping a woman);
-- Liberals claim the Zimmerman case shows why the 'Stand Your Ground' law must be repealed. The Zimmerman case wasn't based on Stand Your Ground, principally because Zimmerman's head was being slammed against the ground;
-- The prosecutors, consisting of expert mind-readers, accused Zimmerman of being a racist. They know this because the tolerant, saintly racial healer Trayvon Martin called him a "creepy ass cracker";
The record shows an FBI investigation a year ago concluded, after interviewing 30 people, there was no evidence the shooting was caused by racial bias or hatred on Zimmerman's part, so good luck bringing "civil rights" charges against him.
Anway, that's...

Having cruised a few network news sites, there is about 99% support for the verdict. The only ones angry are the black racists that wanted to lynch Z.
Makes you wonder how he got that way? (/s)
That is so a racially-motivated homerun out of Leftist Tyranny Park. This show trial -a mockery of real justice - had everything stacked against an hispanic cracker - a crooked judge for one - and still his cracka half wins because the keystone mob-appeasers did not fix the jury.
Its a cursive conspiracy against putting an obviousl innocent whitish hispanic without a pressure group to organize rallies like daddy Obama did with the DoJ - allegedly.
having a trial at all was injustice
Well done, Sir!
Very good summation.
Racists 4 Trayvon do not have that 3d digit IQ most humans have
Are you serious? The corrupt bastards are still trying to attack this man in the media after their embarrassing loss?
GZ needs to file suit against anyone who opens their mouth now even if it’s thrown out of court.
Trayvon Martin, sparked deep emotional reactions across the country
Yea like what store can I smash into and steal me a TV.
That’s because they heard this type of statement from stupid, uninformed CNN and MSNBC commentators misrepresenting the facts.
I suppose without reasonable doubt like in China GZ would be on death row now.
Liberals want America to be like China. They all are Orwellian Maoists.
Liberals are hate crime mongerers in that case...
The hate crime bill is their creature, one diluting reasonable doubt of defendent behind subjectivity of what the person thought. It can be manipulated in terms of perceptions.
Rabid muscle twitch stubbornness is the only liberal cause. We should let them flail around until they turn blue and then leave them on the side of the road, not rescueing them like we had to at Woodstock.
bttt
A backlash is coming. I sense people are getting fed up. The age of deference and manners is about to end.
Moreover, if Holder thinks he’s going to do something with this, he’s mistaken. Not only did the FBI already pre-empt his stupid potential case, but he is opening up the government to yet one more massive lawsuit. NBC is already being sued by Zimmerman’s lawyers. I hope they bankrupt that grotesque organization.
You’re damn right anger flows. I’m getting sick of blacks getting the benefit of the doubt on everything. It’s reverse Jim Crow, reverse Reconstruction and it’s time to stop. In a sane world, the Justice Department would move in and PROTECT Zimmerman and INVESTIGATE any threat against his life. But noooooooo.

I think the time is WAY past to enable them to experience TRUE equality. How about an equal chance to make your OWN GD living and stop extracting it from the taxpayers for starters?
How about an equal chance to get up in the morning and hustle to work, like everyone else??
Actually, if Holder decides to file a criminal civil rights case he will have Omara in Federal Court filing a motion to foreclose the charges based on the DOJ having sent their folks to Stanford to assist and help plan demonstrations to force Florida to file charges against Zimmerman. The DOJ can not be considered to have been seeking the facts when they were involved in getting the charges filed through attempts to stir up the Trayvon supporters in order to force a criminal case.
The obvious bias is there and the DOJ can’t get past it because of their actions in this case prior to the filing of charges against Zimmerman in Florida and the fact that they had an ongoing FBI criminal Civil Rights Violation investigation in process at the time.
