Gotta love stuff like this coming from those who claim race has nothing to do with it.

Hell, Jongsie, why didn't you mention watermelon and fried chicken while you were running down your list of stereotypes?

Zimmerman is white. He isn't.

Trayvon was shot in the back of the head, execution style. He wasn't.

Zimmerman suffered zero injuries.

Trayvon, as pictured, isn't a 12 yr old, but was in fact 17 years old, stood 6 ft tall, and was hardly a 'skinny kid'.

Which runs into another LIE told by the media. Zimmerman outweighed Martin by 100 ( I think Niki said 130 lbs ? ). False. There was 30-40 lbs difference. 50, tops. Far from the hulking brute , picking on the mild mannered, fresh faced kid as the media tried to portray.

Want more ? Or does that draw you a clear enough picture?

( as if I really need to ask )

* Note to everyone* - Do not believe Anthony. He does not know what he thinks he knows on matters concerning of what I think or believe.

Boy, for someone who hates it when others bring up "lies" and "lying", you don't seem to have a problem accusing "the Left" of exactly that.

Let me guess: If FauxNews said Zimmerman was white, they "misspoke", right?

Soon the MSM will be sick of it, the election is coming and they have to get to Republican bashing. You libs will get sick of it when you discover you can't link Conservatives to the murder, then you'll dump Trayvon's parents like a bad habit.

Oh, and I forgot to add the NBC edited 9-1-1 call, by Zimmerman. He was asked what the suspect looked like " white, black or hispanic " , and he replied " He looks black ". Only NBC altered the audio, as the Left often does, and completely changed the context of the conversation.

If FOX ( never heard of 'fauxNews', sorry ) News reported that Zimmerman was 'white', then it shows they're as bad as the rest of the media, and no where near as 'right-wing' as the Left would have us believe.

Ive heard none of those from the press, myself. From regular people people, yes. But not the media.

But Im sure you can provide links.

*Note to everyone*: Anthony is spot-on. Pay no heed to Rappy's pleas for pity.

I agree with Story's original post, it is a situation that needed further investigation, and its good that it got media coverage because it was a situation that warrants scrutiny, but I think at this point the media coverage might be doing a disservice to the legal case.

Note to self: Take out the recycling.

Ah. NBC was the group behind the ACORN tapes, then? Were they the ones who selectively edited the Shirley Sherrod tapes?

I guess I never realized that Andrew Breitbart was part of "the Left"...

So if MSNBC reports that Zimmerman is Hispanic, does that mean they're not as "left-wing" as "the Right" would have us believe?

Yeah, I forgot to mention that all the outraged members of the Congressional Black Caucus will be donning new colorful Spring hats as they try to defeat all the outraged members of the NAACP for a 1982 green Cadillac Deauville in the new network's only game show called Ask Or Ax Da Bitch?

Personally, I'm satisfied that the VERY PUBLIC ATTENTION got the shooting looked at - one month after it happened and was ready to disappear into the dustbin of history. Without the coverage it wouldn't have been looked at at all.
