...compared the murder of his cousin to the killing of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin

Name me one similarity other than them both being dead and of the same race. Uh uh uh uh ....uh uh uh.

I don’t know him at all, nor do I know of Emmit, but I take it Mr. Till’s brother is a black boy.

What about the WW2 vet who was beaten to death? Two days ago I said that story would be buried in two days. Today I read the news and *surprise* absolutely nothing about it.

Memo to Mr. Simeon Wright: There is no comparison to Emmett Till and Trayvon Martin. Trayvon Martin (aka “St. Skittles”) was a 17 year old thug wannabe who attacked George Zimmerman. While he was pummeling and slamming George Zimmerman's head into the concrete, Zimmerman fired one shot with his Kahr PF-9 pistol and Martin died. Case closed: a clear case of self defense.

Zimmerman did not stalk and kill Martin; Martin stalked and attacked Zimmerman. Martin died because he was a stupid thug. Deal with it.

MSNBC host Craig Melvin allowed the slanderous myth spewed by Mr. Wright to air unchallenged. Melvin was either too stupid or he was intentionally buttressing the MSNBC agenda that Martin was an innocent baby gunned down by an evil “white Hispanic”.

I like this line........
Trayvon was fatally shot during an altercation by former neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman........

Don’t you just love how the lib press assigns blame in such nonchalant ways? They’ve been doing this to Zimmerman ever since this story first broke. It’s not “During an altercation, Trayvon was shot by Zimmerman”...No, it’s “Trayvon was shot during an alteration BY Zimmerman” so people will read it as if Zimmerman was the cause of this altercation.

He was a black boy who wolf-whistled a married white woman in the deep south in the 1950s, which was stupid enough, but then he compounded it by bragging about how many white women he’d supposedly had sex with, even after he had been abducted by the people, including the woman’s husband, who eventually killed him.

He did more than that. According to the trial testimony:

On the evening of the 24th, Emmett, and five of his relatives and their friends, drove a few miles to Bryant's Grocery & Meat Market in Money. After a few minutes of milling around in front of the store, Emmett followed one of the other boys into the Bryant store. After the other boy made his purchase, Emmett was left alone in the store for a minute or so with Carolyn Bryant, the white woman working the store's cash register. What was done or said in those few moments is not known for certain, but whatever happened doomed Emmett. As Carolyn Bryant would later tell the story in a Tallahatchie County courthouse, Till asked her for some candy inside a candy counter. When Bryant placed the candy on top of the counter, Till grabbed her right hand tightly and asked, "How about a date, baby?" When Bryant pulled her hand free and started to walk away, Till grabbed her by the waist near the cash register and told her, "You needn’t be afraid of me, baby I’ve [slept] with white women before.” Till's cousin, Simeon Wright, writing about the incident decades later, questioned Carolyn Bryant's account. Entering the store "less than a minute" after Till was left inside alone with Bryant, Wright saw no inappropriate behavior and heard "no lecherous conversation." Wright said Till "paid for his items and we left the store together."

There is, however, general agreement about what happened next outside the store. As Carolyn Bryant left the store and headed towards a car (to retrieve, she testified, a gun), Emmett whistled at her. Till's cousin described it as "a loud wolf whistle, a big city 'whee wheeeee!'" Till's Mississippi cousins instantly knew that Till had broken a longstanding taboo relating to social conduct between blacks and whites, and that they were in grave danger. They quickly ran to their car and sped out of Money.

He allegedly assaulted a white woman. All sides agree that he frightened her enough that she felt the need to arm herself. And he did so in the Deep South.

One fact of life in the Deep South: up until the 1930's, Mississippi was majority black, and even today, after many blacks migrated north, is still 37% black. White Mississippi knew that the only way to stop Mississippi from resembling the South Side of Chicago, was to deal savagely with any Chicago-style behavior.

“He’s delusional. We have a black President, AG, and SCOTUS justice to name but a few. In 1955 blacks were but mere servants to those in power.”

But all of them are still not worth a bucket of warm spit! These Black Mensa’s have poisoned the well but good! Reverend Manning is spot on in his comment about “Black Failure.”

True. We've had at least 2 here in sleepy SW Pa in the last 10 months. Timothy McNerney and a friend, students at Washington & Jefferson College, were walking home from a bar at closing time when they were jumped by 5-6 black males. McNerney died of blunt force trauma to the head. Took 9 mos to find and arrest 3 of the predators.

Last week Zachary Sherdan was shot in the back as he was running away from a black male with a gun.

No national news.

There is a strong undercurrent of something very seriously wrong going down.

Till was an idiot , however he did’t deserve to die or even deserve to be beaten the way he did before he was killed.

Comparing the tragedy that is emmet till to trayvon is plain irresponsible. Till was tourtured and killed by a gang of southern racists. He was killed in a very horrible wayas well and was completely overpowered the whole time.

Trayvon attacked zimmerman first and had the physical edge and laid several hits on George before george used his weapon to defend himself.

Till was an idiot for having a big mouth in a deeply segrated area and was cocky till the end, but no one deserved his fate at all. Till was also from another part of the country as was visiting relations so he did or didn’t realize how his cockyness would betaken, but never deserved to die or even get beaten up for it.

Where Trayvon more or less brought it on by attacking george and it wasn’t and act or tourturous malacie like with till, it was one shot in self defense, not touture for several hours followed by a bullet to the head and dumping the body like it was with till.

To equate the two is an act of “Moral Relativism” that is completely irresponsible.

NBC Anchor Doesn’t Correct Guest Who Calls George Zimmerman ‘White Boy’
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3058724/posts

If your federal office holder is Republican E-mail them this and ask them why Republicans aren’t responding

The truth and dual purpose behind the Zimmerman persecution .. The regime and the media set the premise for the trial narrative and their presentations ignoring the setting where the incident took place..An area having a “Neighborhood Watch” and the person working security just doing his job. Why was this episode politicized ?...The first was to gin up the base for purposes explained herein but there was another second agenda..

If some of those so called conservative talk show hosts had interviewed guests who run such watches and had the courage to fight PC and defend Zimmerman they would have exposed the regime and the media for the frauds they are. The few who are still “milking this” by accepting black callers.

Allowing them to mis-state the facts such as as Martin was “stalked” or Martin was “stopped” and “questioned” when there was no right to do so. Instead these hosts fail to cite the simple facts outlined and documented here, allow the callers miss-conceptions go unchallanged, or cite examples of policy or corruption let alone ask them what has Obama done for you? Or even dismiss them as unfortunately being used and deliberately mis-informed..

Particularly a “gated” neighborhood watch.When you enter one of these and start wandering around no matter if you are white, blue, red, green, or black. You can be asked your purpose for being there. You are on private property. And yes those on patrol can and do leave their vehicle and follow on foot if they lose sight of the person they’re observing..That’s the Watch Captain’s who is really a security guard’s job.http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3054721/posts

The person of mixed race including black working security was attacked on private rights of way while on foot who discontinued an observation and was returing to his vehicle after being suggested by the police to do so. Legally he could have approached Saint Trayvon but didn’t..The hooded tall figure was allowed to continue on his way.unimpeded. But didn’t. That figure turned out to be a Martin Trayvon who doubled back and attacked the “neighborhood watch” worker as he was returing to his vehicle. Knocked him to the ground and began beating him severly. Saint Trayvon, the attacker, was subsequently killed in a struggle over the Neighborhood Watchman’s legal pistol.

Both were dark skined and could “pass” as cousins.

The facts of this case are still being shamefully being concealed by the media to the extent they are advancing and are complicit in permitting a putrid injstice of the worst order,organized and instituted by our governent, to be committed .While denied. It began as a miscalculation when a surname of a Jewish origin shot up and lighted the heavens like a star shell in the darkest of nights. It would have been difused if the media used pictures of both side by side because they look like cousins. And the area where this occured of paycheck to paycheck struggling homeowners of all races trying to protect themselves had been reported and not some ritzy all white enclave.they portrayed..Worse yet the media is still pilling it on with ABC editing a a black jury members (remember when they were all white)t remarks to make it sound like she accused Zimmerman of murder .

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3048225/posts http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3048631/posts

The result as we have seen is that another marxist axiom (division) has been implemented which has resulted with gangs of black youths murdering happless whites and “hispanics” who happen into areas usually where a black population is the majority. Those media outlets who by their delberate misuse of the instrument of the 1st amendment are just as complicit in those deaths as the regime is.

Other forms of media particularly the black media had the duty but not the obligation to verify and report factually. But instead quoted the reports from various “mainlining” socialist media sources: Some examples here all of which serve the first purpose of selecting Zimmerman as the target. What is the result ?

Black youths believing they would get top level peer approval began attacking happless white and hispanics which may have wandered into their area which resulted in murders or serious injury and some cases stalked their white victims.

In reality these victims are martyrs to the cause of American socialism.,and the political opposition says nothing..

What could the purpose be ?

What better way to cover up Bengahzi, Fast and furious, IRS, Wind and Solar panel gate, NSA spying on US, Over-riding the constittution? Don’t look into who accompaines Obama on his many trips around the world at taxpayer expence ? Were they the heavy hitters or their friends holding the president’s hand isn’t that pay back at US taxpayer expence?. Isn’t that an impeachable offense ??

Now if somebody even suggests impeachment. Get to your black base voters, whom you’ve done nothing for,.all worked up. Pick on some security guard who’s doing his job. Accuse him of being racist ,even though he is part black..

But his last name sounds “jewish.”Who’s doing surveilance in an mixed race area of modest means a where there’s been robberies and burgalries by young blacks. Now call that surveilance stalking, the area he’s patrolling owned by rich whities,and the guard of course he’s white.

That person he’s watching a 10 year old black kid and a saint ,not six foot two 165 pound 16 year old, who gets killed fighting over a gun. . Now paint a target on the security guards back .Ain’t that neat ? What better way to discourage any investigation into malfeasance and corruption by organizing the base for riots in the streets ? Think it’s too far fetched ? Think it’s not working ? Look again http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3051558/posts

You are encouraged to Print this up or email -pass it on....Why ? Time to expose citizens to the face the facts that they may believe whatever activity they get involved in is perfectly legitimate and legal. If it suits their purposes this regime and its adhearants will paint a target on their back. Wether it’s a black hispanic who gets turned in a “white hispanic” or union members losing their health care benefits if Obamacare gets funded.

To date the political opposition known as Republicans has yet to mention or comment on this example of how this regime operates. Time to ask them why ?

“Today I read the news and *surprise* absolutely nothing about it.”
Here neither, that be Albany NY. Our newspaper doesn’t like to mention the race of the murderers, seems like its racist I guess........ even when the murders occur locally. If the TV didn’t send cameras to arraignments the newspapers would never have to tell.....unless it was pertinent, like they were White.

Till was not killed for whistling at a white woman, or even for putting his hands on her.

He was killed because he refused to submit and show due deference to the white men who were beating him. It is highly doubtful they initially had any intent to kill him. They wanted to teach him a lesson, vindicate their own white maleness and make other blacks see what would happen if they didn’t “stay in their place.”

When Till refused to play along with the scenario of crawling to confess the superiority of his torturers, they had essentially no choice (in their minds) but to eventually kill him.

The whole attitude here is very similar to the traditional Muslim/dhimmi relationship. It can be peaceful and even friendly as long as the dhimmi freely admits the superior status of the Muslim. If he refuses to do so, the Muslim has no choice but to force him to submit, and if he doesn’t, to kill him. Doing anything else would utterly violate his worldview and sense of propriety.
