Yes because clearly you think black women are too dam stupid to know where babies come from..

If Obama had any political capital left, he shot it all up today. He's done.

Hahaha! All you have to do is look at data and see that blacks have a higher conviction rate with stiffer sentences.

Don't worry though, the New Black Panther Party hasn't sent out the memo yet for us to start attacking white people.

Preach it Obama.

I always admire Obama, but often wish he was less cautious and deliberate.

Today, I am PROUD that he is our president

I'd lay equal blame on the shoulders of the irresponsible black men.

Or perhaps you think it's some evil alien plot that's lead to 72% of black children being born into less than ideal family circumstances?

Which pricey private school did Trayvon go to?

It is only going to fuel the fires that are already starting over this whole debacle. Whatever side you fall on , the case is done and over with. We need to just all move on.

Of course you say that now. If Zimmerman had been convicted y'all would be jumping up and down, guns a-blazin'.......

You just don't like what he said. The fact that it's correct is what really bothers you.
