His 911 call he called the young innocent African-American boy several racial names, and he said he is tired of THEM [African-Americans] going into HIS [hispanic] neighborhood. That is clearly racism at its finest, and unfortunately the world has more than its fair share of non white racists. Which includes Al Sharpton.
No it's a fact. Blacks had been terrorizing his community with a rash of burglaries.
I don't understand are Blacks allowed to launch a campaign of terror and no one should stop them or point out that hey the criminals are Black?
I thought it was great. To me, it demonstrates a huge difference between Obama and Romney which is that Obama at least can appear to be in touch with the average American while Romney has difficulty doing this.
What's sad is the idea that being in touch or caring that a child was killed somehow depends on his looks matching yours or your family's.

Because when we are the victims and discriminated against, then we are latino or hispanic. When we do the crime, then we are white. If we are going to be referred to as white, then fine. But, the media needs to be consistent. It seems like they are fanning flames here and bringing up images of the old south, when hispanics had nothing to do with that. They deliberately make the connection when its convenient for them.
They aren't calling him latino or mexican or whatever else he could be because it's an election year. Hispanics and minorities will choose our President come November. Where have some of you been? Spanish will be the official language in the next 50 years. And the southwest and CA will pretty much be an extention of Mexico.......poverty, drug violence, and all.
Again, check out FrugalYankee's link to the police report: Zimmerman is
described officially as "White."

...so the killing Trayvon Martin will put an end to these burglaries? He was the sacrificial lamb?
The inept police department does not seem able to get a handle on the crime issues. They need an overhaul from the ground up and perhaps now they will get it.
What an absolutely beautiful post. I loved it. Can't rep you enough.
Not surprised you'd rep a veiled threat. Trayvon is no more or less a victim than the thousands of black men gunned down by other black men each year. Why aren't their deaths a "tipping point".
