Zimmerman’s Fate and Looming Race Riots
frontpagemag.com ^ | July 3, 2013 | Arnold Ahlert

The murder case against George Zimmerman is rapidly unraveling, due in large part to the compelling testimony of key witnesses. Ordinarily, there is nothing unusual about compelling testimony changing the course of a trial, but in this case it is witnesses presented by the prosecution that are bolstering the case for the defendant. Thus, with each passing day it is becoming more apparent that the real reason for bringing this case to trial was to assuage the media-driven concerns of the racial grievance industry, led by chief arsonists Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson. Shamefully aiding and abetting them is the racially polarized Justice Department led by Attorney General Eric Holder.

We begin with the witnesses. Billed as the state’s “star witness,” 19-year-old Rachel Jeantel, the last person to talk to Trayvon Martin before his death, proved to be a major embarrassment. If there is a racial element to this case, other than the prosecution’s unsubstantiated accusation that Zimmerman “profiled” Martin, Jeantel introduced it during her testimony. She revealed that Trayvon Martin had referred to Zimmerman as a “creepy-ass cracker,” even as she subsequently denied it was a racial term. Another compelling part of her testimony was in regard to a letter she had supposedly written to Martin’s mother describing the chain of events that led to Trayvon’s death. During questioning by defense attorney Don West, Jeantel was forced to admit that, despite signing it, she was incapable of reading the cursive script in which it was written.

West further grilled Jeantel about her inconsistent statements to police, and the discrepancies in her testimony. Jeantel blamed them on questions posed by law enforcement officials, and the lengths of the interviews. As to the omission of details, she claimed she was trying to spare the Martin family....

The reason the minority community is this upset, is because they believe Trayvon was a good kid. There’s been virtually no news portraying him as a would be delinquent, beyond the known suspension. A meme being retweeted, is that Martin had scholarships waiting for him, was a model citizen and volunteered to help the community. Therefore, Zimmerman killed one of the good kids...

Understand that this is the media’s doing, and of course they went with the description the parents gave. But if all this was true,the outrage would be understandable.

If just before instructing the jury, the judge were to change the charge against George Zimmerman to that of murdering a Romulan aboard a Federation starship, the jury would still vote to convict. The fix is in.

All they wanted was an arrest — they got it.
All they wanted was an indictment — they got it.
All they wanted was a trial — they got it.

They got all they said that they wanted —

But.....

What if King Zero and his minions are already working on a plan to fan the flames and stir up racial hatred? What if they want Zimmerman acquitted so they can use the ensuing rioting and civil unrest (that they will help to spark) to further clamp down on all of us (maybe even martial law)?

I wouldn't put it past the disgusting lump of moldy slime to think about doing such a thing. Anything to increase his power.

The riots are being planned at this moment. They will be bad ones too. Altanta, Jacksonville, Phillidelphia, newwark, Chicago, Oakland and LA—That’s my guess. People should be ready because its going to happen—No Justice, No peace.

If the media get the riots they so passionately desire, one hopes that the media are among the first victims. Kind of a Schadenfreude moment.

I'm so sick of this. It wouldn't take much to set off most cities; we get that. I'm going to make a crazy statement....since the cities are going to riot at some point anyway, it will be far better if authorities expect it and can be ready.

What I'd be most concerned about would be something more like spontaneous combustion between racial/ethnic groups at a crowded summer gathering. If there is any rioting when Zimmerman is not guilty, it gives the police an excuse to lock up the troublemakers for the rest of the summer.

The only people who need to go to jail are the prosecution and the judge.

Of course it’s against the law.
But the real question is “is it against a law that Obama chooses to enforce.”

Jamie Foxx? Wasn’t she a porn star in the 1970s?

Isn’t CNN located in the heart of Atlanta?

Are there any potential rioters in that city?

...Florida law requires them to prove Zimmerman ”acted according to a ‘depraved mind’ without regard for human life.” So why did the state pursue that charge? Because Trayvon Martin became a cause célèbre for race-hatred promoters like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, who called for marches and boycotts against the city of Sanford. Their efforts were aided and abetted by corrupt media, which bent over backwards to insert race into the equation. Those efforts included the New York Times referring to Zimmerman as a “white Hispanic,” NBC purposefully editing an audiotape of his 911 call to make Zimmerman appear racist, CNN claiming Zimmerman used the word “coon” when he actually said “cold,” and innumerable news outlets publishing a picture of Martin at age 13, despite the fact that he was 17 and over six feet tall at the time of the incident.

Zimmerman had the right to defend himself. The six members of the jury won't find him guilty unless sicko democrats create a new 'standard' stating how close to death a person has to be before they're allowed to defend themselves. And as creepy as democrats are - they won't push it that far... might cost them some Hispanic votes. Zimmerman's innocent. There's not going to be any other charges.

Zimmerman needs to sue every liar in the MSM who worked to destroy his chances at receiving justice by their repeated lies about him. NBC should be paying through the nose for the next 50 years.

These people will not riot because they are angry. They will riot because they think it is fun but need a unifying event.

There won’t be any riots because the defense so demolished the prosecution’s case without even going on offense that the Trayvonistas will be ashamed to show their faces in public.

Yeah just like when Tawanya Brawley was found to be a fraud and those people were so ashamed they went away.

Oh wait...

The black media outlets would do justice to themselves and to what they call “their people” if they told the truth and helped avert a disaster. Won’t happen though...
