Trayvon Martin

It does appear that political correctness has clouded our minds at times. The guy on this video makes some interesting points!

Is it considered racist in bible belt America? (obviously that is the key rather than Greater Manchester).

MLK used it. Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and others like them use it.

The Rainbow/Push organisation uses it.

What do people think the the "C" stands for in NAACP?

you know that MLK has been dead for 45 years right?I know how unfair it may same that they can use "coloured", and freely toss about the "N" word without repercussions even though if we do it were called "racist" even though Jesse and Martin said it once, but I guess we have to make some sacrifice if we want to continue to receive all the other benefits of being white.

What interesting points??!! Assumption?? Take out the 'Black' equation and you still have a young man shot to death. What is this clown talking about??!

They did a toxicology report on Martin, right? Did it come back as him having drugs in his system? Maybe that needs to be clarified?

Also, it was raining that night and why wouldn't the boy have put his hood up?? I do to protect the back of my neck against the sun, so I guess I would protect my head as best as I could against the rain!

I thought, also, Zimmerman admitted to following Martin, so even IF Martin had been 'smoking', that clearly never made him paranoid! Wouldn't he have just 'freaked out' and gone home? I thought weed relaxes you and makes less prone to violence??

I dunno, I don't do drugs, but I'm also not an assh*le preacher in a church.

I think the toxicology report came back that he had been smoking illegal substances but didn't know how recently.

Are you aware that Trayvon was carrying 2 of the 3 ingredients necessary for making "Lean" or "Purple drank"?

<a class="postlink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple_drank" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple_drank</a>

..and on social media had referred to it several times, talking about making some good lean drink. Other friends of his had asked him if he had a hook up for some lean...

Yes, he has been dead a while but the others are still alive ((and use it repeatedly) and the aforementioned organisations are still around.

'coloured' is not the 'n-word'. I don't see any NAAN organisations.

Whatever the case may be, the Juror using ""boy of colour" once during thee Jury process when asked to describe Trayvon is nothing at alll to be up in arms about. I know that some don't like the verdict but to try and cast the jurors as racist is quite frankly despicable and utterly pathetic.

The ONLY time when Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton care about black life, is when that individual has been killed by someone who isn't black.

In 513 Days Between Trayvon Shooting and Zimmerman Verdict, 11,106 Blacks Murdered by OTHER BLACKS

To be exact, the shameful truth is that 93% of African-American murders are committed by other African-Americans. That is breathtakingly awful when you consider how incensed the African-American community is about the Trayvon tragedy, no matter what you believe about Zimmerman’s guilt.

Let’s do the gruesome math, not out of morbidity, but because it manifests the incredible self-centered insanity of people like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

8,000-9,000 African-Americans are murdered each year.

93% of them by other African-Americans.

That’s 7,905 (from average)

That’s 21.65 murdered each day by other African-Americans.

And these racebaiting culture-hustling microphone-pimps only get riled up when a “White Hispanic” kills an African-American? It’s absolutely shameful.

To update, in the 513 days between Trayvon dying, and the Zimmerman verdict, 11,106 African Americans have been murdered by other African-Americans.

Seen on another webpage. Kind of interesting.

Those figures are "mostly false" according to Politifact

" No one actually knows how many African-Americans were murdered by other African-Americans in that time frame, and the numbers cited are actually an extrapolation of murder statistics for 2005. More current figures from 2011 show fewer deaths. So the specific numbers are not literally accurate."

Let me guess a white man wrote this (with made up facts).

Let me guess a white man was eager to share this.

 

[ElanJo]

Rachel Jeantel now says she thinks Trayvon threw the first punch.

If I was the Martin's lawyer I'd gag her before she says something else that goes against the narrative.

What interesting points??!! Assumption?? Take out the 'Black' equation and you still have a young man shot to death. What is this clown talking about??!

They did a toxicology report on Martin, right? Did it come back as him having drugs in his system? Maybe that needs to be clarified?

Also, it was raining that night and why wouldn't the boy have put his hood up?? I do to protect the back of my neck against the sun, so I guess I would protect my head as best as I could against the rain!

I thought, also, Zimmerman admitted to following Martin, so even IF Martin had been 'smoking', that clearly never made him paranoid! Wouldn't he have just 'freaked out' and gone home? I thought weed relaxes you and makes less prone to violence??

I dunno, I don't do drugs, but I'm also not an assh*le preacher in a church.

What were the ingredients he carried?

 

[TheMightyQuinn]

Ah if he had drugs on him or had ever taken a drug it's OK to shoot him to death?

What's worse, black people or people on drugs?

This forum is becoming a holding cell for some seriously psychotic characters.

Peace and love.

Float on

he had skittles and watermelon drink, which aren't even what people would normally use in the drink , though i suppose you could mix cough syrup with anything. Not sure how familiar people are with it but its called LEAN. its hard to get off the couch when you're on it let alone be suspicious and attack people.

So what I work with several white guys who walk around with bags of coke and E pills I guess they deserve to be murdered? How many on this very forum getting high on a regular basis on their drug of choice?

People are allowing themselves to act like he asked to be killed, facts are he was murdered for defending himself against an aggressive, racist person following him. Zimmerman has a MySpace page that has surfaced which shows his inclinations and true feelings towards us people of colour.

if blacks started killing white teenagers who looked suspicious there would be some perspective and referring to black on black crime us irrelevant as most if not all those people are given harsh sentences or end up on deathrow.

Race is not a choice it's just a roll of dice why anyone feels superior for being one thing and that others are inferior because nature made them another is beyond me.

It's getting out of hand now a 13 year old girl was murdered by a paranoid pensioner and a 14 year old boy unarmed killed by the police while out with his friends.

We are not free nor seen as equal I accept that now, wholly. The new tactic is to say "oh it was not racism it was (insert whatever clause).

We are all humans it is a sad state of affairs really but I seek no sympathy nor acceptance from those that harbour certain views. We have survived much worse and comments from fellow Brits and people I considered brothers on the web prove to me the chasm is wider than I ever thought.

 

[SWP's back]

I feel it should be said:

No one deserves to be murdered for getting high

No one deserves to be murdered for being black/white or even Asian.

No one deserves to be murdered for winning a fight.

However, under the idiotic laws on the US, he is technically not guilty of murder.

The guy is a ****, whether he is racist or not only he knows (though it is safe to assume he probably is), whether he shot the lad because he is black, again only he knows (this is less clear - I personally think he'd have shot anyone that got the better of him).

But the main thing is he is a ****, a **** with a gun. That he still legally owns. But it is likely he won't make the new year having shown remorse. In that event I wouldn't shed any tears for him.
