  1. It's only relevant if you've misunderstood the words.
  2. ...The conservative movement doesn’t understand anti-racism as a value, only as a rhetorical pose. This is how you end up tarring the oldest integrationist group in the country (the NAACP) as racist. The slur has no real moral content to them. It’s all a game of who can embarrass who. If you don’t think racism is an actual force in the country, then you can only understand its invocation as a tactic. From that perspective, then of course George Zimmerman is a victim of “racism” and so is this man in Mobile, of whom the people writing about him know absolutely nothing. It’s a game, in which hurling insults around indiscriminately is entirely within the rules...
  3. ...Floridians generally support the firearm self-defense law that George Zimmerman will use as part of his defense in the Trayvon Martin case, but they also support him being charged with second-degree murder because they think he is guilty. 42% of Florida voters support the "Stand Your Ground" law, and 32% oppose it. Republicans overwhelmingly support it (60-13), and independents like it as well (45-31), but Democrats oppose it (24-50). 49% think Zimmerman was appropriately charged, while 25% think he was not. The verdict is more narrow when it comes to his actual guilt of said charge--31% believe he is guilty, and 26% think him innocent. Despite the hullabaloo, 46% believe Zimmerman will be able to receive a fair trial, and 37% think he cannot. Floridians generally do not believe Zimmerman was motivated by racism when he killed Martin--only 32% think he was, and 45% think he wasn't...
  4. And there is nearly a 100% probability TM would be alive had he left GM alone There is the 100% fact that Trayvon would still be alive if Zimmerman hadn't got out of his truck to follow him. So look at the lines above Any conclusions? Zimmerman shouldn't have profiled Trayvon.
  5. And there is nearly a 100% probability TM would be alive had he left GM alone There is the 100% fact that Trayvon would still be alive if Zimmerman hadn't got out of his truck to follow him.
  6. Latest is that Zimmerman was drunk.
  7. Like you whining about what's on the news? Just change the channel man.
  8. I find comfort that the justice system works for the blackman and whiteman alike. Except it's been proved it Doesn't. Due to that Institutional Racism you can't see.
  9. Whites were found guilty just not enough to be sentenced to death for identical crimes. Why would that be?
  10. Trayvon is 100% dead. His killer is 100% alive.
  11. ...Nearly eight in 10 Americans agree with the arrest of Trayvon Martin's accused killer, George Zimmerman. That's according to a CNN and ORC International poll. Zimmerman was arrested last week and charged with murder in the shooting death of the unarmed Florida teen. The survey finds 78 percent of those polled say they thought Zimmerman should have been arrested...
  12. No, the Primary Issue is your acceptance of Institutional Racism. Are you happy that many White defendants got away with their crimes?
  13. Don't know it ever was. I do know that Whites commit the majority of crime.
  14. ...From colonial times into the 1960s, the overwhelming majority of those executed were African American, and although most victims and perpetrators of crime are of the same race, the overwhelming majority of victims in cases where executions took place were white. Hundreds of African Americans have been executed for a variety of crimes against white victims, including scores of African American men executed for rape. However, just four whites have been executed for crimes against African American victims, all murders...
  15. I really have no idea and I really have no idea how many black people are racist. I was just pointing out that you cannot tell by the color of ones skin if they are racist or not. And in a poll like the one you posted you can have as many racist respondents on one side as the other. I don't know why I let you suck me into this stupid game you are playing...(well it is kinda fun) but will really make no difference in the long run. No one will have their minds changed by anything we say here. A few will think a little. However the more light is thrown onto the usual suspects dark little political corner the better.
  16. ...A 2001 study conducted by two University of North Carolina professors, who analyzed cases over four years in the 1990s, found the odds of receiving a death sentence in North Carolina increased 3.5 times in cases in which the victim was white. In addition, the study found, black defendants were twice as likely to receive death sentences in instances of identical crimes. Nearly half of the defendants North Carolina has sentenced to death since 1977 are black, although the state has had an African-American population of roughly 22 percent over the past three decades. This figure, collected by the N.C. Department of Correction, does not include defendants sentenced to death and later exonerated for wrongful convictions--the last three of whom were all African-American...
  17. No. Your Question is now answered. What percentage of White folks do you think are Racist?
  18. ...A new poll shows that almost 60% of those in South Carolina familiar with the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman case, think Zimmerman acted irresponsibly and should be held accountable for Martin’s death...
  19. This is Zimmerman's story. The Truth is not yet apparent.
  20. The dispatcher asked Martin's Color. Zimmerman said Black. He didn't have to get closer to check - he already knew.
  21. Looks like a lot of racist black people already have convicted him without a trial. So 72% of black folks are Racist. You really believe that? And the white folks who initially let the killer go free? They weren't racist in the slightest? 72% might be a little high I would put it more around 63%. WTF So, according to you, 63% of Black folks are racist. What percentage of White folks would you call racist? 64%?
  22. No Wendy ABC edited out the part where the dispatcher asked GZ about the race of the person he was following The person that did that at ABC has been fired GZ only offered what race he thought he was AFTER he was asked But he already knew Martin was black.
  23. ...A plurality of Florida voters agree with the decision to charge George Zimmerman with second-degree murder in the Trayvon Martin shooting, a new poll from Public Policy Polling finds. 49% of voters agree with the decision to charge Zimmerman, 25% disagree and 26% are’t sure. Voters aren’t sure whether he is guilty, though – 31% believe he’s guilty, 26% think he’s not guilty and 43% aren’t sure. Most voters don’t believe the shooting was motivated by racism – 45% say it wasn’t, 32% say it was and 23% aren’t sure. 46% of voters say Zimmerman can receive a fair trial, 37% believe he will not and 17% aren’t sure. Despite the controversy over the shooting, more Florida voters than not still support the “Stand Your Ground” law that allows citizens to use lethal force in the face of a perceived violent threat without having to retreat first. 42% support the law, 32% oppose it and 26% aren’t sure...
