The White Trayvon and Black Zimmerman

Had to take a break from this place. I got tired of reading the cult following of Obama that gets defended even though he uses his big stick (Bidens words) to the backside of America.

Have to revisit this one since there still is no arrest and it's been over a month and a half. Turns out the victim that was killed by the black guy was mentally challenged with a very low IQ. If you have forgot this case it's understandable because the media doesn't feel its as important as the Florida case (maybe because the victim was not black and the shooter was???). Remember the victim was unarmed but was accused of swing a pipe or a bat even though one wasn't found.

I love how the Libs made the Martin/Zimmerman case political by calling it a race issue and then try to defend the Arizona case just because the shooter is black and ruins their argument for the Florida case. It's really a very sad situation.


The Link
 
In the AZ case, all the shooter had to do was drive away. It's hard to believe that he was in danger while in his car, unless he was trapped by the man. Zimmerman might have driven away is he wasn't being beaten. Funny that he had a broken nose, cuts on the back of his head, and the injuries to Martin before he was shot were to his knuckles. It is hard to beat someone on the knuckles with your head.
 
I love that I35 has come back from a vacation apparently spent basking in the rays of the Daily Kos.

News arcs and media attention are a fickle thing. I know that the race issue looms large in the minds of our favorite right and left leaning yap dogs, but there is more to it than that. I mean, the media has a sense of timing, it would seem, and they follow our lead.

Why hasn't the Arizona case gotten more attention? Why haven't most of the killings connected with these insane gun laws gotten more attention? Why did it take so long for the Martin/Zimmerman case to come to light?

The OK case I noted above, which had some overt racial baggage and multiple killings over a number of years has not been picked up on the national wires.

To a lesser degree, the case of the military vet shot on a playground in Fla has not really gotten alot of national attention.

Maybe it's just that America is used to stories that involve idiots and their beloved guns. Fatigue sets in pretty quickly.
 
One white Trayvon Martin is getting his posthumous day in court. Trevor Dooley is going to court as the judge found that he instigated the confrontation which occurred between himself and a man who physically accosted him in order to disarm him after Dooley brandished his weapon.

Maybe the courts can instill some sanity into these idiotic stand your ground laws, and thereby send a message to the idiots who are made bold by those laws.
