Obama’s son goes walking by at 2AM in a strange neighborhood, just whistling and thinking about his mother and Jesus, when he was gunned down by a White Racist Republican Jew, who listens to Rush Limbaugh, for absolutely no reason and just because he is Black. Ok! Got it...I think....?
America, what a crazy country this is.
“I don’t know – not having been there and not seeing all the facts – what role race played in that, but I think it’s fair to say, number one, any of us would be pretty angry; number two that he Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home,” Obama said in response to a question from the Chicago Sun-Times’s Lynn Sweet.
Gates, Obama allowed, “is a friend, so I may be a little biased here. I don’t know all the facts.”
It was 7:20 pm (hardly the midnight hour) and Trayvon belonged in that neighborhood (either his father or father’s fiance lived there).
We will never know what happened unless we have accurate info.
The shooting happened just after 7 p.m. Sunday evening on Twin Trees Lane. A man who witnessed part of the altercation contacted authorities.
“The guy on the bottom, who had a red sweater on, was yelling to me, ‘Help! Help!’ and I told him to stop, and I was calling 911,” said the witness, who asked to be identified only by his first name, John.
“And then, when I got upstairs and looked down, the guy who was on the top beating up the other guy, was the one laying in the grass, and I believe he was dead at that point.”
Well, if he had been given his own skittle pooping pink Unicorn as promised he would not have needed to go out at two in the morning. So whose fault does that make it?
