PEOPLE FORGET

PEOPLE FORGET


People forget. Zimmermann was told to stand down from following Trayvon by police - and he did not comply. Apparently it's only important to comply when you're Black.

Trayvon called his best friend and told her that some cracka-assed cracka was following him.

He gave a blood curdling cry for help that a voice examiner determined could have only come from a teen, before they found other 'experts' who said it could have come from a grown man.

The folk who freely called him a thug on your posts and mine, did they EVER apologize? Not one. NOT ONE!

This would not even have gone to trial if Sharpton had not staged a protest. The citizens there said that he wasn't the only one murdered in this way; the difference was that he wasn't from the area and the family balked at there not being a trial.

The racist judge stipulated that racial profiling could not be a factor in the trial, when most every Black person in america - and not a few white people - knew that if Trayvon had been 'Billy', this would never have happened.

And yet the [defence] was allowed to go on and on about ground n pound and how once Trayvon got on top, he could have used a stone from the ground to bash in Zimmermann's head. (I put defence in brackets because everyone including the parents knew who was really on trial).

Both Jimmy Carter and Colin Powell backed Zimmermann with 'rule of law' and 'ground n pound' and they were never called to apologize.

The hero in this racist quagmire they called a trial was a chinese coroner of 19 years named Shiping Bao who determined that from the autopsy in his expert opinion, the lack of bruising showed that Trayvon could not have been engaged in any ground n pound on Zimmermann and the gunshot trajectory and residue was inconsistent with what Zimmermann claimed.

The [prosecutor] and the [judge] refused to allow Shiping's testimony and according to Shiping, he was warned to go along with the racist narrative.

When he came out with the truth of his findings, he was fired. He found employment elsewheres, commenting that he would miss the sunny weather but not the racial climate.

But what burns me the most is how the same people (even some black people) diss Zimmermann now, but NEVER acknowledge where they stood then. Pitiful.

And these same 'misguided' folk are deluded about policing policy changes; you can't fix what's broken through better training, bodycams, civilian oversight and liability insurance.

Police trained and hired from the community and answerable to the community is the ONLY solution.

Can't wait 'til we have our own media. Everything changes.
