Was Trayvon Martin a homophobe?
Daily Caller ^ | 07/17/2013 | Jim Treacher

As we’ve been solemnly informed by our moral, ethical, and intellectual betters on the left, we’re supposed to listen to Rachel Jeantel and consider her a serious person or else we’re racists. Well, let’s pay Jeantel the courtesy of listening to her here, and assume she means what she says.

WARNING: Piers Morgan

I won’t attempt a transcription, but it sure does sound like she’s saying Trayvon Martin thought George Zimmerman was a homosexual rapist. And she was applauded for saying so!

So, according to Rachel Jeantel, Trayvon did this because he thought Zimmerman was gay:

As if this case wasn’t confusing enough for liberals already. First they had to call Zimmerman a “white Hispanic” so they could tell themselves they’re not racist against Hispanics (which they are). Now it turns out, if we’re to believe the brave and heroic Rachel Jeantel, that Trayvon was beating up a guy for being gay. Or at least Trayvon and Rachel thought so.

If you’re wondering what the LGBT community has to say about that, well, they’re still sorting through all the cognitive dissonance. As Patrick Howley notes:

The gay-rights advocacy group GLAAD has yet to respond to new revelations that Trayvon Martin may have been under the impression that George Zimmerman was a “gay rapist” at the time of their tragic fistfight…

GLAAD did not return a Daily Caller request for comment.

GLAAD has long spoken out against the “gay panic” defense used by defendants accused of violent acts against people they perceive to be gay.

Yeah, but all those other cases were different. Homophobia is bad, except when pointing it out might get you in trouble with Al Sharpton.

Congratulations, Zimmerman-haters. Not only are you racist against Hispanics, but you’re homophobes too. Enjoy them apples.

Dear @BarackObama: If you had a son, and he beat up a Hispanic guy for being gay, and he got shot, how would you use that politically?

I wonder what @fakedansavage thinks about Trayvon Martin being a violent homophobe? He's probably okay with it.

Update: Tom Joyner supports homophobia.

Update: “This is not about no damn LGBT, it ain’t about none of that bull$#!+!”

Update: Congratulations, Piers. You got a quick ratings blip, and all you had to do was completely derail the Trayvon narrative.

Update: Democrat Party operative Elspeth Reeve doesn’t seem to think we should believe Rachel Jeantel. Why so racist, Elspeth? Or maybe you just don’t have any problem with gay-bashing?

As a general rule, the Love that Dare Not Speak It’s Name has few fans in the African-American community.

Maybe this wasn’t about race at all.

Maybe... just maybe... Zimmerman hated homophobes and dispatched the hater when the opportunity was presented. Wouldn’t that make him a beloved darling of the left for showing such dedication to the LBGT cause?

Let me see if I got this right, Trayvon proiled Zimmerman, and then took matters into his own hands. Isn't this exactly what they accuse George Zimmerman of doing?

Should we recall an individual, Matthew Wayne Shepard, who was beaten and left hanging on a fence to die, primarily because he was of “different” sexual orientation? Wasn’t that termed a “hate crime” at the time, and legislation created and enacted to deal specifically with that aspect?

Is what Trayvon Martin did to George Zimmerman in any way different from what happened in Wyoming? In one very different respect, it was. Zimmerman was armed, and shot his assailant. If Shepard had possession of a weapon, would he have defended himself in a similar manner?

Trayvon Martin was a vindictive gay-basher, who went out of his way to deliver a “lesson” to that “crazy-azz cracka”, only something went horribly wrong.

The Universe is a cruel and unrelenting taskmaster.

“Proiled” is a good word. I think you just invented a whole new way to express the concept. Profiled someone and spoiling for a fight.

The MSM in trying to protect our sensitive ears edited George’s walkthru tape
George said T’s comment to him was “Do you have a problem Homo?”
Surly the jury heard the unedited version!

Idea for a new 501c charity:

Guns for Gays - Donated funds are primarily used to provide free firearms to members of the LGBT community who want to be able to defend themselves against homophobic attackers. A portion of the funds will go to victims of assault in circumstances where there is evidence that the attacker may have been motivated by hatred of homosexuals. Note, this may include victims who are not themselves homosexual, but may have been assaulted because their attackers may have perceived them to be gay, as in the case of Trayvon Martin's attack on George Zimmerman, which was the inspiration for this charity.

It Could Happen to You!

Don't be the Next Matthew Shephard!

Be The Next George Zimmerman!

Yep, it’s either racist of homophobic, depending on where one puts the hyphen. And personally speaking, I’d never want anyone putting their hyphen ... okay, nevermind, bad joke.
