— Ace The left is ooohing of course, like Baby Just Said His First Word.
The racial condescension among liberals is staggering.
Obama said, “Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago.”
Only if he also did Total Absorption and blow and was thinking about doing heroin.
Obama added that he had experienced racial profiling personally: "There are very few African-American men who haven't had the experience of being followed in a department store — that includes me."
During his years with the Choom Gang, I assume. I'm sure they never shoplifted.
Obama also said, “Reasonable doubt was relevant, and they rendered a verdict. Once the jury's spoken, that's how our system works.”Obama said he was "bouncing around" ideas with his staff on how to respond to the Zimmerman verdict, adding, "I think it is going to be important for us to do some soul searching."
Soul searched, I guess. Mind. Blown.
Pushing against Florida's "Stand Your Ground" law, Obama stated, "If Trayvon Martin was of his age and armed, could he have stood his ground on that sidewalk?" both the outcome and the aftermath might have been different."
That doesn't even make any sense.

Sir, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Well, as far as I know Traytable was full black. I guess Barry goes by the 1 drop rule.
By that logic Zimmerman is full Hispanic though, which complicates the racial grievance hierarchy.

He also said that when a black person crosses the street, he can hear the car lock click and that happened to him.

Huh? People actually *wait* until they see a black person to lock their car? It isn't pretty much the default these days (particularly since you often don't need to unlock your car door to open it from the inside).

By "Constitutional Lawyer" Barry meant he taught Critical Race Studies, or how the law and constitution are permanently biased against minorities and the poor.

Of course it makes sense. You seem to think that he's concerned about the facts of the case. Umm...no. If the President says or implies that GZ was the aggresor and started the fight (nevermind GZ's tenderized head and TM's lack of one), then it has to be true. He has the bully pulpit and its just assumed that the President wouldn't lie from the bully pulpit.

Personal security expert Gavin De Becker's "Gift of Fear" rehashes numerous incidents (based on his interviews with crime victims) where people had a point in their contact with a criminal in which they could either go with their gut or override it in order to appear polite - like whether or not to get in the elevator or let a stranger assist them with a bag of groceries. Criminals count one peoples' need to appear polite and to not offend anyone, even questionable strangers. This is how you become a crime statistic!

Jeezus H. Christ. How fucking stupid can Obama and Holder get? That "stand your ground" law had absolutely NO relevance AT ALL in the Martin case. Martin walked up to GZ and assaulted him, knocked GZ to the ground, straddled him and proceeded to pound the living crap out of him.
So there GZ is, flat on his back, nose smashed, head lacerated, and the so-called "child" Trayvon in the process of bashing his skull in on a concrete sidewalk. I would dearly love for one of these imbeciles to explain to me WHERE THE FUCK was GZ supposed to "retreat" TO?

As I understand it, the statistics show that Blacks have used the 'stand your ground' defense in Florida twice as much as whites based on the percentage of their population.
And the only reason I would have followed Obama around a department store is because I would have been concerned a retarded child got separated from their mother.

If Martin had killed Zimmerman, the trial outcome would have been the same, not guilty.
Reasonable doubt is what you have when no one outside of the protagonists knows what really happened.
No one ever mentions that Zimmerman didn't panic and run. That would have been stupid, but people who know they are guilty of a moajor crime do stupid things.

That might be true.
But absolutely true... if Trayvon's mother had aborted him at Kermit Gosnell's clinic, Trayvon would not have had to face the decision of standing his ground.
And if an asteroid had wiped humans out after it had wiped out the dinosaurs, none of us would have to worry about standing ground.
There are an infinite number of scenarios that can be made to speculate what could have been. Turns out there's ONE scenario that actually was and justice was served.

When you say "reasonable doubt is relevant to the case", do you mean like when semen is relevant to pregnancy? Or are you going more for the sense of relevance inherent in "a dog is relevant to a shoe"?
Thanks in advance for your brief but well-considered response!

"Jeezus H. Christ. How fucking stupid can Obama and Holder get? That "stand your ground" law had absolutely NO relevance AT ALL in the Martin case. Martin walked up to GZ and assaulted him, knockedGZ to the ground, straddled him and proceeded to pound the living crap out of him."
Silly Cracka! All the evidence showed GZ ran down TM like a cheetah on a kudu, forced him to his knees, sexually assaulted him, shot him execution style, and then sexually assaulted him again out of racist spite.

Well, of course it does not.
_South Park_ brought to the attention of the world the "Chewbacca defense" model in court, whose sole merit is that it "does not make sense".
Then in the Zimmerman trial, we saw the first-ever deployment of the Chewbacca prosecution model. Whose sole merit was that it did not make sense.
Now we're on to the Chewbacca lefty political spin model. And, you guessed already, it does not make sense. Here's the deal: it doesn't have to, and it's not meant to.

1. We don't know if Martin was, in fact, "profiled".
2. Racial profiling is not murder.
We need to be careful not to defend profiling while defending Zimmerman, because they're two different matters. Even if profiling doesn't bother you the way it bothers black Americans, it's two different matters and they need to be discussed separately. Lumping them together ramps up the emotion while shredding the logic.

Not only shot him execution style, but in the back! Three times!
That's what the completely nutty Jane Surdyka testified for the prosecution in court.
Despite the fact that the prosecution's own medical examiner witnesses told the court there was one bullet wound from the front. And despite the prosecution's own gun expert having testified it was physically impossible for more than one shot to have been fired.
As I said: Chewbacca prosecution. Does not make sense. Does not need to. Is not meant to.
By the way, I assume none of you will be surprised to learn that the nut case Surdyka, who imagined all these impossible events, is a... retired teacher from the unionized Florida public school system.

So, uh, now that we know that Saint Trayvon of the Bloodied Hoodie was a GODDAMNED BURGLAR, having been caught by the school police in possession of items stolen from a house a few blocks from his school, while carrying a "burglary tool", perhaps someone should ask Jay Carney when it was that the President first started breaking into other people's houses, and when he gave it up, if he has given it up.

I'm assuming because you have a history of aggravated assault we don't know about? OK assuming that you like Trayvon make no attempt to contact the police, or get yourself to safety and instead double back and attack someone.... I've seen pictures of you back then; let's be serious string bean no way Zimmerman has to use lethal force to defend himself if you plied your spaghetti arms to him.
>>>"If Trayvon Martin was of his age and armed, could he have stood his ground on that sidewalk?" both the outcome and the aftermath might have been different."
Yes because Trayvon attacked GZ to begin with? Yes both the result of that fight and the jury verdict would have been very different. Or if GZ was unarmed and Trayvon just continued with his plan to senselessly beat him, similar results.

The important thing to note is what Obama didn't say, that, as president could carry a lot of weight, especially since he was 'historically' elected, making him a role model.
Obama didn't suggest it might be a good time for parents to reflect on how they're raising their kids and consider their future and safety in this world. But Obama would never ever say that. Obama wants there to be Trayvons, lots of them, in fact. Dead or alive, Obama don't care. Trayvons are good political props.

Uh, okay. Trayvon did "stand his ground," with his fists. Fists ARE weapons, frequently cited as implements of homicide in DoJ/FBI crime stats reports that the SCOAMF clearly has never bothered to read. So much for the "unarmed" bit. If St. Skittles of the Sacred Hoodie HAD been otherwise armed -- with, say, the pistol featured in some of his tweets -- there would have been a shootout, I suppose, resulting in a varying number of casualties. Which, yeah, qualifies as a difference in outcome and aftermath.

Putting aside my view of Zimmerman's utter lack of tactical awareness (Gee, what if that suspicious character isn't running away at all but instead has doubled back and is on an intercept course with me right at this moment?), Florida's Stand Your Ground law didn't apply. By the time Zimmerman was aware of Martin coming at him, Martin was hitting him and then straddling him and pounding his head into the pavement. There was no time to run and no avenue of escape. The President, an attorney himself, knows this.
Now would be a good time for a prominent Republican politician to stick his neck out and speak truth to power. If the GOP Establishment is staying quiet because they're worried about being perceived as a pack of old white guy bigots, that horse left the barn in 2008, when Obama announced his candidacy and when any criticism of either Obama or the Democrats became instantly racially suspect. We're going to be smeared with the racist brush no matter what we say or do, so we might as well speak the truth out loud about this and other racially-tinged issues.

Martin was profiled.
As a potential burglar and on drugs.
Given that Martin ACTUALLY WAS a potential burglar (having realized that potential on at least one previous occasion) and ACTUALLY WAS on drugs, that's a great big plus in the profiling column.

Let's talk about the last 35 years, by all means.
For the last 4 decades we've had countless social programs aimed at "advancing" black people, and supposedly equalizing the playing field and opening opportunities.
Enough time has passed now we can examine the results. Other than making Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton rich and famous, who benefited from all of that social engineering?
They set up a system in which a few can do well by exploiting the many who get left behind. For example, Obama is chosen by Harvard Law to be their token. Toure is chosen by Rollin Stone to be their angry opinionated African American. Etc.
You really think Toure, Sharpton, or Jesse Jackson want most Blacks to succeed? You really think they want to prevent black teens from ending up like Trayvon Martin? Of course not; their careers would be over.

In Roman times, if a person (or group of people), who had been enslaved 7 generations ago started complaining that they needed some sort of "leg up" from the rest of society, the sound of laughter would have been audible in North Africa.

Iran’s foreign ministry on Friday criticized the acquittal of George Zimmerman and chastised the United States for widespread “racial discrimination.”
“The acquittal of the murderer of the teenage African American once again clearly demonstrated the unwritten, but systematic racial discrimination against racial, religious, and ethnic minorities in the US society,” Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Seyed Abbas Araqchi was quoted as saying by Iran’s state run Fars News Agency.
“The court ruling has also seriously put under question the fairness of the judicial process in the United States,” Fars reported Araqchi as saying.

I think you all are missing the larger point here. Barack Obama is first and last a community organizer. It's demonstrably the only job he ever had that he was any good at. Alinsky's Rules for Radicals is his Bible.
It's dumb to even mention all the *other* black teens that are being killed every day. The Alinsky way is to pick a single case and personalize everyone's anger around that. That person does not have to be your enemy; it can also be someone you sympathize with and know your followers will sympathize with. Obama and his minions have done that brilliantly in this case. Nobody feels like they can do anything about 5000 murders in Chicago, but by God I can go wear a T shirt with Trayvon's picture on it, and stand in a candlelight vigil, and argue endlessly on Facebook and Twitter about how "unjust" this verdict was, and pretend like I know something about America.
And what is the point of all this agitating? To keep lots of black Americans -- and white liberals who run the media -- thinking about "racism," and "injustice," instead of thinking about "unemployment."

It is - as others have pointed out - because of the name George Zimmerman. That is a white sounding name; specifically a Jewish sounding white name. Had his name been Jesus Martinez you would never have heard of the case.
The left wing machine was looking for a "white kills black" story to ferment racial strife. That they screwed up and got GZ was an accident. Once they had run the story they were stuck with it. That is why he became a "white Hispanic".
The story is part of the narrative. The left does not want calm and peaceful they want chaos.
All I can say to them is "Be careful what you wish for".

The judge said state law protects pensions from being “diminished” but there will be no such protection in federal bankruptcy court.

Was that what you dumbfucks had in mind when you voted for a twit because he was dark-skinned and would heal our racial divisions? Well, was it you dumbfucks?!

Mr. Obama's right. If he'd have attacked a guy with a gun in Florida 35 years ago, he'd have probably been killed by the guy with the gun.
And if I'd have done that 35 years ago, then I could've been killed for that moment of stupidity, too. And so could have Joe Biden. And so could have Madonna. And so could have Sean Penn. And so could have Raymond Kelly. And so could have Charles Barkley. And so could have Al Sharpton. And so could have.... The fact remains that none of us did that. We made sound choices not to attack people, and our skin color matter not one bit. Once again, Mr. Obama's words fail him and further stirs up animosity.

Gosh, you mean allowing the fiscal situation in Detroit to reach such extremes, thus forcing their hand into declaring bankruptcy, means there will be negative effects for people who worked for Detroit's gubmint? Really? Oh my gosh, we can't have that! There should never be consequences for anyone! When bad things happen, we should give people rainbow ponies and lollipops, because they didn't do anything WRONG! It's not like decades of graft, corruption, socialist policies and Demonrat rule could have been corrected in any way before things reached this point. It's not like they could ahve tried a different political model, or even tried to elect an administration that wasn't blindingly corrupt. Nooooo, that just wouldn't work. Everyone was doing so WELL until it all came crashing down. It's not FAIR to make people pay for our bad decisions. It's CHEATING!

#486 I am pretty sure California has a similar provision in its Constitution and Orange County found a work-around for it in its bankruptcy.
At any rate, a state court cannot stop a FILING of bankruptcy in federal court, simply because of this provision. The pension plan or pensioners would have to sue later in state court once the bankruptcy plan is submitted. And I still think federal bankruptcy law will trump even the state Constitution, though this might not have been litigated before.

Alex - I am sure the Detroit people are well aware of that provision in the state constitution. And there may be ways to reorganize the city's finances without touching the pensions. The judge was out of order to assume otherwise. A federal bankrupcty filing by itself does not violate the state constitution. That's why this ruling was premature and should be just ignored by the city.
At any rate this is going to be super-fun to watch. Blue-on-blue fighting is what we need. Once the money stops because the borrowing cannot continue, we will get a war among all the left constituencies fighting over the scraps. Then we win. Liberals know this too.

>>>What part of "Neighborhood Watch" don't you understand?
The follow on foot part. You are non-uniformed. Following someone on foot at night could reasonably be perceived as an aggressive act. Continue to do it long enough and it can be reasonably interpreted as an imminent threat. Had Trayvon been further from home (such that getting to safety wasn't an option), and didn't have a cellphone to call the police, it could be construed that Trayvon acted in preemptive self defense* to a clear imminent threat to his life where no other possible remedy was available. In which case Zimmerman who should have known following someone could be interpreted as a threat, would have rightly been convicted of manslaughter 2 as Trayvon wouldn't have been committing a felony when he attacked him.

I have to admit that IF this had involved Barky, the media would have had a more difficult, though not insurmountable, problem describing GZ as 'White Hispanic' without describing O. as 'White Black', or something like that. Putting aside the manifest tragedy of the entire still-evolving event, it would have been interesting to see how the media would have handled it.
It occurs to me that Obama, Holder, and Race Hustler's Inc. actually are engaged a stalking of GZ that far transcends any 'stalking' that GZ did. But, you know, self-evidence and logic are concepts foreign to progressives.

There is a great deal of imagination/rationalization associated with that. First of all, Martin was on private property..., and he was a guest at that. People walk in my community all of the time, and at any given time some are following one another. If your perspective is that to do such constitutes 'imminent threat', then we should brace for a rash of 911 calls, as people engage in 'preemptive self defense'. I'm not worried, because the people here are not idiots, nor do I believe that your perspective has a rational basis. It is merely gross rationalization to support an argument for which there is not a scintilla of evidence, based entirely on an imagined scenario. If you have something to state that does not include 'if', 'might', 'had', or a host of other imagined conditionals, then post away. Otherwise, all that you offer is totally unfounded speculation.

Account yourself fortunate. It seems to me that the GZ jury was exceptionally thoughtful. My fellow jurors have not been people that you want to spend much time with. To many believe what they see in/on movies/TV.

I doubt that would have stood up. All Trayvon had to do if he felt threatened was to start knocking on doors and request sanctuary. Even if nobody would let him into their home just waking up the neighborhood would have made nearly anyone following him withdraw. Unless, of course, he was known to most residents as the Neighborhood Watch guy and
Also, Zimmerman wasn't following him at the time Martin attacked. He'd lost him. Even if Martin had no place to go in the neighborhood, he could easily have maintained his distance and left the area. The prosecution's stance supports this. The choice to have a confrontation was entirely Martin's. Further, the choice to immediately escalate to violence was entirely Martin's. He made no attempt to ask at shouting distance, "Why are you following me?"
Nothing, including the prosecution's star witness, indicates Martin ever felt threatened. Rather, the response to Zimmerman appear to have been solely anger. People who have been caught doing something they know was wrong often react that way. Plenty of people can look back on such moments in their own youth, including several of us. The difference is that we didn't react by making the other person feel in danger for their life. Perhaps one of us did and had the good fortune to be physically overpowered rather than shot. If Zimmerman had the right training for such a situation the world would be saved this whole business. At least until the race baiters found a new martyr.

If I were a more cynical person, I might suspect that passage was put in the Michigan Constitution as a booby trap to force a federal bailout.
I wonder when and by whose proposal that bit came to be there. I doubt it was part of the original document.

Martin wasn't profiled ... he was acting suspicious and it turns out did go on to commit a violent crime later that night ... so I would say the suspicion was warranted ...

There are very few Department stores that haven't experienced a large number of African-American men who have stolen merchandise ...
some reputations are earned ... some are not ...

Now, the thing to do is, you get a poker from the fireplace, see. Then you find some anti-slavery nutbag to hit with it. This time we'll win that war!

The left doesn't want a civil war but not for that reason. Another civil war won't have a globally salable theme like "Free the slaves!" It will likely mean that several states drop from the union. Freedom would be allowed to persist. If that were to happen, a lot of good working folks like me stuck in CA would leave the US for the new nation. And you would have prosperity right next to desolation. Then you wouldn't be able to hide the failure of your ideology. That's why Colorado is so important. It breaks the western conservative geographical powerblock, and would make it difficult to form a new nation with WY ID TX OK KS UT NE ND SD MT which would put the old US out of business in a generation.

Thank god the Pres feels so sorry for the Martin family, so do I. It must be horrible to lose your son to a tragedy like this.
Apparently the Pres doesn't give a shit for the Zimmerman family situation, considering they are having to live in a state of constant fear from all of the death threats. Are their no laws in America regarding death threats and are these not being enforced any longer? My guess is that the threats are a feature, but please don't profile anyone who is threatening you.

I want to hear an Illinois Republican come out and say that he could have been Zimmerman, except that he couldn't carry a gun in 2012 and instead would have been lying there dead with his head bashed into the sidewalk while Trayvon would have gotten away free.
Is there an Illinois Republican?

Obama should butt out. Why does he feel a need to speak about something like this?
If he needs a case to represent racism this isn't it. And if he is going to butt in he should tell people this had nothing to do with race, and everything to do with suspicious behavior and probably an over jealous neighborhood watch guy. But not race.
Condolences to the family, of course, it is a terrible thing to lose a child, with all his potential unrealized, no one should out live their child.
But inciting a race war will not bring him back.
