The entire affair of George Zimmerman's confrontation with Trayvon Martin has nothing do with justice for Trayvon Martin. What we are seeing is the thug society in the United States angry and upset that a precedent has been set allowing an individual to actually defend himself/herself and THAT is what the thug leadership and thug people are upset about.
The individuals demanding "justice" and threatening Zimmerman have to make sure the general populace feels intimidated by thugs. The claims by leadership will be that the protests are because of a miscarriage of justice when in fact, that has nothing to do with it. If they were REALLY upset about the shooting, they would be protesting in Chicago every day. I saw the same thing while teaching in the public school. The thug children were upset when someone was corrected NOT out of sympathy for the perp, but for the reason that they would receive the same punishment were it allowed to stand.
The thug society is desperate that this not be allowed to stand, because if it is, the mugging economy will take a severe hit and become unprofitable and, of course, very dangerous. They must get a reversal on this in order to maintain the thug society in top running condition. The whole issue is about being to intimidate, beat and or kill anyone who opposes thuggery, nothing else.
The other side tipped their hand early on when they held up Florida’s “controversial” Stand Your Ground statute for criticism. Even after it became clear that Stand Your Ground was in no way relevant, the Lefties continued to try to ride that horse.
Obama/Holder used the Trayvon death to wip up the lackadaisical black vote and get them @ the polls in Nov. 12.
bkmk
I’ve thought all along the left ginned up the prosecution of Zimmerman as he dared to use our natural right of self defense and did that with a legally carried handgun, both acts the left would deny us. The race angle was secondary and useful to get the Democrat’s black & brown base on board.
The left wanted to send we white middle class the message to lay down & take our licks, rather than use self defense.
Ognib!!
Your observation is spot on!
And as the self-appointed (for life) spokespersons for the thugocracy, the Revs Jackson & Sharpton especially don't want their grievance industry to end either.
It most definitely is NOT about Trayvon. Jackson & Sharpton care as much about him as they do about every African-American male killed in Chicago this past weekend.
Exactly.
Street toughs I understand. They are boring, predictable, and not all that dangerous if you take the proper precautions.
The way that this local case became a media narrative, and a hobby horse for the Democrat party is instructive, though. And watching the criminal justice system become the political tool of the current administration is nothing short of chilling.
That said, and now that it can’t be ignored, there’s really only one question. “What are we going to do about it?”
Actually, his son Jason (born April, 1970) was the murderer. O.J. is guilty as an accomplice after the fact.
Yes ZULU democracy is a fools dream!! Which is exactly why WE DO NOT LIVE IN ONE! We are a Constitutional Republic! We have allowed, for years, the rabble rousers, the media, and even Congress to put forth the narrative, day after day, that we are a democracy, when we are not. But we are becoming one.
I swear, every day I hear someone say democracy this democracy that, well this is NOT a democracy, democracy is mob rule. We had better stop the thuggery and soon, or we will become mob rule!
Well, sort of my point. Only a republic of virtue can survive. Otherwise it degenerates into a democracy which can never work
Democracies become tyrannies which are at least functional.

And "the individuals demanding 'justice'" are the same grievance industry frauds that have been doing this crap for decades ... all to the detriment of their 'race'.
As Mark O'Mara accurately stated ... if Trayvon Martin had been any other race, their would have been no such mob and no such case.
