Hoping to fan racial flames in his direction before the South Carolina primary, Pete Buttigieg tweeted out his support for Trayvon Martin on the occasion of what would have been Martin's 25th birthday, February 5.
"Trayvon Martin would have been 25 today," Mayor Pete tweeted. "How many 25th birthdays have been stolen from us by white supremacy, gun violence, prejudice, and fear?" Buttigieg threw in a Black Lives Matter hashtag just to make sure black voters knew he was down for the struggle.
This tweet would have been unfortunate six months ago. Today, it is unforgivable. In December, attorney Larry Klayman, the founder of Judicial Watch, filed suit on behalf of George Zimmerman in the Circuit Court of Florida's Tenth Judicial Circuit. The story made national news
Based on the research of filmmaker Joel Gilbert, as seen in his new documentary and book of the same name, The Trayvon Hoax, Zimmerman is charging that Team Trayvon substituted an imposter for the real "phone witness" in Zimmerman's 2013 murder trial for the 2012 shooting death of Trayvon Martin and in the depositions that led up to it.
Zimmerman should sue Buttigieg as well. Far from being a white supremacist, the Hispanic Zimmerman was a civil rights activist, an Obama-supporter, and mentor to two black teens at the time Trayvon Martin attacked him. The evidence in Zimmerman's defense was overwhelming, which is why he was acquitted.

If Buttplug really believes that then by definition as a white man he is responsible and must drop out of the race.
Bam! That’s the proper retort. Thanks, Salamander.
Zimmerman's paternal ancestry is white but his maternal ancestry is African and indigenous Peruvian. He is one-eighth black...something the media studiously avoided mentioning.
Homer Plessy of the famous Plessy v. Ferguson Supreme Court case was only one-eighth black, same as Zimmerman. (That was the "separate but equal" decision.)
Agree.
I bet he turned his cap sideways before he tweeted dat yo!
Does Mayor Buttplug ever wonder, if white supremacy and white privilege are “a thing,” why Gray Beaver pretended to be a Native American for decades?
Buttplug is trolling for Biden’s black voters in SC. Watch this guy, he is a Communist, America-hating wolf in sheep’s clothing. He comes across as moderate and measured because he has a good voice, doesn’t yell or wave his arms, and is pretty smart. But under that facade is a rabid Leftist/Communist - just look at his positions on a whole host of issues.
Biden is toast; Bernie has been targeted and won’t win (who knows if he will literally even survive, he’s already had a coronary on the campaign trail); Gray Beaver won’t ever win a primary except maybe Mass of Two Schiffs...and that leaves Buttplug (a young and telegenic guy who doesn’t scare people) and Bloomberg. Bloomberg will buy him off, and Buttplug will be the incredibly well-financed Dem nominee.
Especially since Buttboy would cheerfully kill them while they’re coming out.
The left is evil.
These people twist everything, then insist that it’s true because they said it.
Spoken like a true bottom.
Zimmerman would be eligible for reparations with his black ancestry.
Both Buttigieg and Warren suddenly started talking about St. Skittles. Hmm, why both? Neither, obviously, never heard of him.
there is no such thing as white supremacy. There is such a thing as white excellence in achievements.
What exactly does he mean that he blames it on white supremecy? Trevon was killed by a latino man who was scared to death. How is that tied to white supremecists except in a twisted mind?
IIRC he was saddled as a ‘white mexican’ or some such. As opposed to a black mexican or brown or orange or green or chartruese or whatever.
Or was it ‘white hispanic’.
“...Zimmerman’s paternal ancestry is white but his maternal ancestry is African and indigenous Peruvian....”
I really don’t care WHAT he is; all I see is a Citizen with the same basic Human, Civil, and Constitutional right to defend his life from some mongrel ghetto savage as you or I have.
The leftardniki love to use the race bait. It’s all they have.
Why are they dredging up Trayvon? We haven’t had a race riot since Obama.
‘But black folks aren’t gonna fall for this one bit.’
hmmm...really? there’s a very low bar for what they fall...
‘Until he starts to peach in a black church.’
well, he is a fruit, so...
Consider what is being proposed as an alternative to "white supremacy". It is not equality under the law. That has been rejected. To the Left, a "colorblind society" is racist.
What they are aiming for is black supremacy.
If there had been effective black supremacy, George Zimmerman would not have been allowed a firearm, and he would be dead, not Trayvon Martin.
He doesn’t have the lisp or else it would be pronounced “pweach”.
