Really? After I agree with your last post, you gotta go make me look like an idiot? White kids get killed by white kids every day too. People of all colors get profiled by the police based on class, clothing, or other distinctive signs of non-conformity. What is your point? It seems like you, Panzer, and some others are going out of their way to say something along the lines of "Eh, he was black, quit being outraged."

It's true, white kids do kill white kids everyday. It's also true that some white kids grow up with out fathers. Neither of those rates are anywhere near those of black kids. There are real problems with the justice system, there are real problems with the black community and there are real problems with hoity toidy white liberals who like the idea of black people but have never actually seen one. These things all feed off each other. In no community in the world is a 72% absentee father rate a good thing.

Trayvon Martin is the worst outlet for a real grievance. He is not what people talk about when they say the justice system is stacked against blacks. You could possibly shoehorn something about police indifference in there, but going by the facts of the case, there wasn't much to arrest him with in the first place. Now, if that upsets you please be my guest and elect a rep. whom will change the law. The court is for the law, not for someones feelings. To find Zimmerman guilty in this case would be the same legislating from the bench that gives guys like Xiahou and CR heart palpation's

I believe Zimmermans story. When Martin doubled backed and started a fight, Zimmerman is (and should be) justified in shooting him. In the beginning I didn't, if only because the butchered NBC "911" call makes it seem like Zimmerman got out of his car and ran down Martin (absolute shit by NBC). This doesn't make Zimmerman a hero or Trayvon a thug. Zimmerman is a busybody HOA lackey and Trayvon was a 17 year old kid who did what 17 year old kids do.


Me and Panzer could go back and forth on the numbers all day and as much as I love a good roll in the mud, I just don't have the energy for it. I think we could both agree that the sense of frustrated hopelessness in these communities is palpable, depressing, and infectious. It's even more depressing that the only time the "black community" or their out of touch white friends can mobilize is when a "white" man shoots a black kid (how that whole narrative fell apart is another story)

http://wearenottrayvonmartin.tumblr.com/ depraved populism. Sasaki once commented on the obsession with being on the "right" side of history. Right in the sense of progress. I labeled him as a misanthrope, I am beginning to wonder if he was right. I shook the majority my whigishness long ago, I guess the last of it is being extinguished.
