I agree with West. Local authorities did a lousy job of investigating the incident, and there needs to be a thorough and unbiased investigation.
VP......lol
So is West also ignoring the eye witness report that this 6’2” “kid” was beating the cr@p out of the Hispanic man who shot him? Apparently so.
BTW, as a conservative, the media tells me I hate blacks and Hispanics, so my imputed racism makes me neutral...
African American political conservatives. Priorities. |
“certainly not pursue and shoot him ”
From what I’ve heard, Zimmerman was attacked as he was going back to his truck by this “kid”. Witnesses agree with that along with the 911 call where he’s getting beat up. He shot the “kid” in self defense...that’s why he’s not been arrested.
Mr. West needs to keep his nose out of it.
I love fake misleading headlines(s/), you do too huh?
He said an American dying was the outrage, ‘seemingly’ needlessly....
Well you can feel better now, the New Black Panthers have been handing out fliers, zimmerman wanted dead or alive...
So much for West!
Just another Racist/Race-baitor pretender in the mold of Colin Powell.
Martin out weighed Zimmerman, and towered over him, and inflicted serious injury.
Eric Holder is already conducting a Federal Investigation.
Has been for a week.
Holder will never arrest Zimmerman.
The closest he will come is being in the same state in which a Grand Jury pushes to arrest Zimmerman.
Whatta dilemma for the Zimmerman Fan Club!
AW’s statement is filled with cr*p
Firstly,
Facts ....
AW, you coulda been a guiding light... but you just chose the bandwagon of race based votes.
If the cr8p comes down the pipeline, tens of thousands shall perish...... in only a few days..... and you can be happy knowing you spoke as you did...
How shall that work out for your moral indignation.... Uber*ss

Given West’s own willingness to employ a sidearm when necessary, one would think he’d be a little more willing to extend the benefit of the doubt and not make any public pronouncements until all the facts are in.
So this guy should be slammed in jail, in irons if necessary, w/o trial. And the Police Chief fired for refusing to jump to conclusions.
Allen West: Some conservative. We’re supposed to be the side of “Nation of Laws.” But not when the shootee is one of West’s People, I guess. Oh well, this is the year for people to wash out of the conservative movement, and today it’s West’s turn. Bye.
Listen to the actual 911 Calls
To start with I wasn’t sure what happened.
As more and more info is available I am leaning toward it being a justifiable homicide.
And to those who just automatically decide Zimmerman is guilty of murder, well you are wrong.
Like a typical politician, West passed up a good opportunity to shut up.
Crap. I thought SO much better of West.
A Federal investigation is only appropriate if Local, County then State investigations prove to be dishonestly or incompetently done.
From what I have read and seen reported it sounds like it was investigated just fine. Trayvor didn’t like being followed by Zimmerman, wouldn’t talk to him ,and then followed Zimmerman and proceeded to beat the crap out of him, where Zimmerman was able to defend himself and shoot Trayvor, who was younger bigger and stronger than him.
Seems real clear.
The story certainly is appalling to me. Col West’s response is very responsible and tempered for which he should be applauded. I agree with everything he said. He is as true an American Hero and statesman as we have seen in some time.
My objections to this situation and equally appalled at the actions by Al Sharpton and the like to start a vigilante committee. True there was neglect in the investigation at best and racism at worst, however, pressure was brought to bear in the proper way in order to get to the bottom of this horrible situation.
