My God, why are they polling this case? There are serious scandals brewing and all these dimwits can focus on in the GZ case?
People are sick!

"Many simply cannot accept or stand Obama's black presence in their White House. Overwhelming approval of the Zimmerman verdict is just one, therefore, among many ways and means of expressing that distasteful reality. "
Pure delusional thinking.

Many simply cannot accept or stand Obama's black presence in their White House. The author is an idiot...Zero is Arab/Caucasian, with about 6% negro thrown in...he may LOOK 'black', but he isn't.

I think this author is annoyed that Zer0 is just a mulatto and not really a black.

Individuals, yes. Certain, select black individuals usually those who must disavow any relationship with blackness are allowed a modicum of success outside the black paradigm.They just don't get it. Years ago, I worked with a young white dude from Northeast Philly. Nice enough and smart enough, but everything in his mannerisms projected that he should have been doing construction work instead of having a white collar job. Me and two other co-workers constantly schooled him on how to present himself better. And to his credit, he listened and learned.
My immigrant ex-wife tells new immigrants to learn how to act like white men because that is the culture of business.
I'm sorry, but if you show up at an interview with me with your pants down below your a**, you will get five minutes and a trip out the door. And if you are white with your a** hanging out of your pants, you won't even get that five minutes.

Many simply cannot accept or stand Obama's black presence in their White House.I am thrilled to have Clarence Thomas' black presence on the Supreme Court.
Kiss my grits. It ain't about race.

One big reason is that most whites believe that they have done everything they can to not be racial in their thoughts and actions, only to be continually under suspicion.
At some point, you realize that some people could never be placated in this regard, so you quit trying.

Those white poll respondents who agree with the Zimmerman verdict have little or no personal experience grounded in oppression solely because of the color of their skins.But the black author has ... I suspect his idea of oppression consists of non-black strangers avoiding him at night (in the context of him giving them hostile looks) or not being handed plum positions at his command. And that's par for the course - among the races, blacks are recorded to have the highest self-esteem. The Dunning-Kruger effect describes pretty accurately the self-assessments of a wide swathe of the black community.

Unfortunately, Mr. Dyer repeats a numbers of well promulgated falsehoods i.e. lies. One of the biggest is that whites "allow" a modicum of black success if the black person involved does not appear too black.
My question: is success white or black? It's neither...it just is. You either have it or you don't. The fact is black Americans have the lowest rates of scholastic achievement, the highest rates of illegitimacy, and the highest rates of crime. That is a sure prescription for failure. For the umpteenth time, whites are not holding back blacks anymore. Blacks are holding back blacks.

Inisting on a guilty verdict for GZ means that blacks think self-defense is a crime. Smart thinking ... .they better hope that self defense doesn’t become illegal.
Oh, wait they’ve been conditioned by the liberal publik skools to believe that only people of color can practice self defense. What was I thinking?

Historian and activist Paul Street writes in BlackAgendaReport.com that these poll numbers reflect the separateness in perspective that reflects very real, savage, and profound, literal segregation of the races in America. Yep, two perspectives. 1) Believe in the rule of law. 2) Believe in the rule of gimme.
