Well, don'tchaknow, when George Zimmerman supported Obama...he was only supporting the white half.

When George dated a black lady in high school, taking her to the prom, it was all a ploy to appear non-racist so he could murder little black boys a decade later.

I never claimed he wasn't a racist. I'm not a mind reader, and I've asked repeatedly why those who claim to know what is in Zimmerman's head haven't taken *their* mind reading skills over to the JREF to collect the $1 million prize.

The silence has been deafening. Nobody knows If Zimmerman is a racist or not.

As to what I actually said... I claimed that the meme that he was acting in a racist manner that night, or that he was racially profiling, was debunked when it was proven to be based on the media's deliberate lies, forged quotes, doctored pictures etc. He never said 'Those *N***s always get away' to the police, etc.. The media just made those up.

In spite of the proof, the meme remains a favorite over at StormFront, as a way to 'get' 2 minorities for the price of one. It has also been repeated here many times.

Can you offer up a reason for continuing to promote the debunked meme, that doesn't carry water for StormFront?

Anyone who continues to promote the meme that Zimmerman was racist after it has been proven a lie, is certainty operating from some suspect agenda.

There was no 'These N***s always get away' on the tape, that was proven to be a deliberate media lie. There was no 'Hello police, I want to report a black man in my neighborhood', that was proven to be a deliberate media lie. There were no 80 something phone calls from Zimmerman to the police in the previous 11 months complaining about black people, that was proven to be a deliberate media lie.

And there was no such thing as 'white Zimmerman', that (complete with lightened pictures) was proven to be a deliberate media lie. He is brown skinned and of African descent, as is President Obama.

After all of that was debunked, the 'racist Zimmerman' meme was kept alive by StormFront and other white supremacist websites. and fed back into the internet.

Your convoluted thinking on racism here is laughable. On the one hand you spout off about Zimmerman and his colour, neatly avoiding the fact that very same "Racists" as you obnoxiously put it, are defending Martin, who is black.

Fucking laughable. I am sure others have spotted the flaw in your argument, which I suspect is more to do with your anti European stance.

And a heads up on world history.... We are all of African descent.

Even those dead Indians that you claim were never massacred by the Brits? That's not an anti-Euro bias, but an anti-massacre bias....

And you give yourself away incontrovertibly by the fact that you can't even tell the difference between concern for human life (despite your beliefs to the contrary, those people were human beings) and 'former colonials', daring to disagree with your revisionist history.

And I've defended Martin here as much as anyone who wasn't willing to lie to join the lynch mob. I've never made any secret of the fact that my agenda is to call out the racism on both 'sides', and to stick to facts and the law.

Personal attacks again, how quaint.

I asked you before which Indians you meant but got no reply, as I said then, if its the "Smallpox blankets" try reading what I said on the issue.

As for my beliefs, you havent got a fucking clue what they are, just what you wish them to be.

Somehow or another, denial when called on your denier games, just isn't that compelling.

But feel free to go running for whatever relief you need from being 'personally attacked' by having your own words thrown back into your face.

So, these things, for you, prove that he wasn't a racist?

I won't go so far as to say that the findings "prove" he wasn't a racist, but the FBI, The Sanford PD and a jury all found that there was no racial basis on Z's behalf the night of the incident.
I may quibble with the SPD, but the Federales went after him hard, investigated Z's entire life up the yinyang and came away empty handed. That says something.
And then there's the fact that a jury of his peers found the same, which carries legal weight in this here country.

So is Z racist? I dunno. Lots of facts and prior history seem to indicate he ain't. But to say what happened between Z and M was racially based, yeah, that's not right.
(Now if you were claiming an age bias, as in Z was skeptical of teenagers,I might be with you there)
Not unless someone is sitting on some facts that no one else has been able to uncover

I asked because, for the first time that I've heard of, a negative was proven on these boards. Nigh on possible - completely impossible, according to some.

As far as I'm concerned it's next to impossible to 'prove' that someone is either a racist, or not a racist. I can't be bothered to go down that path.

Yet, it *is* possible to develop a strong feeling one way or the other. My own feelings have changed, a lot, at different times of my life. It was only when I did some teaching in further education (i.e. of 16-18 year olds) I didn't realise just how *big* black kids came. Six-foot teenaged boys. Weird. But then realised that these were still boys who were awkward, clumsy, trying to be cool, couldn't hit it off with girls and didn't know how . . . and so on. We all know teenaged boys. We males, at least, all were teenaged boys, once. Twats, basically. Well, I know I was.

Zimmerman should have known this. Any mature man should have. A silly teenaged boy *will* do silly things to 'defend his honour' and 'not lose face'. I picked fights with giant bouncers at that age - but they remembered themselves at my age, then, and didn't crush me as they could have done, easily. I was a twat. They remembered that they were twats at my age. I think that's why I wasn't pummeled.

Silly 17 year old girls go out and do stupid things that lead to rape or worse. Silly 17 year old boys get into insane fights. I do think black boys get 'sized up' as way more dangerous than they are. I've not seen the slightest thing about Zimmerman that's suggested that he was above that. He *could* have seen a stroppy teenaged kid with attitude and realised that the situation should have been handled one way rather than the other.

17 year old boys should not be killed for what 17 year old boys ordinarily are and can't much help being. It isn't civilised. Actually, it's quite cuntish, IMO.

Inability to prove a negative does not constitute proof.

I made it very clear that I never said it was proven that Zimmerman wasn't a racist. Nobody can prove that.

I said the meme, sound bite, factoid, gossip, whatever you want to call it, that he targeted Martin for a racist murder (as in, if Martin had not come by, Zimmerman would have shot the next black person to walk by) was a construct propped up by media manipulation.

Those forgeries, etc. were uncovered months ago, and during the trial, it was revealed that there was no racist language used by Zimmerman. Nothing at all to support the claim, but it continued to be posted here long after.

The jury found that M was killed because he assaulted Z w/o provocation. Not for doing what 17 year old boys "ordinarily do."
That is,unless you know lots of 17 year old "boys" (Notes that the state of Fla is more than happy to declare 17 year old adults when it comes to death penalty time, or trying a minor as an adult.)who go around committing A&B on complete strangers.
Which, as has been noted on this thread, is a truly insane thing to do in FLA where 1/2 the population is armed.

Since when is attacking someone, hitting them in the face, knocking them to the ground and the repeatedly driving their head into the pavement acceptable behavior?
For some reason, everyone freaks at Z-Oooh,he left his truck.Oooh, he followed the "kid" (Notes that Z has exacty as much to walk any street as M, or any other citizen for that matter. And needs to justify his being there not at all. It's a free country).
But nobody has a problem with M committing assault. It's all Z's fault, ya see. Because this "kid," he wasn't responsible.
I don't get it.
I don't get it at all.
Z could have gotten in his face, called him a motherfucker and it still,legally at least, would not have justified an assault.
On the other hand, M assaulted a "cracker" (His own gals words), so who exactly was the target of a hate crime here...?

FR-

A photo from the Houston pro-Zimmerman counter-rally of the NBPP anti-Zimmerman rally picked up by the AP shows a woman holding a sign that read, “Racist & Proud.”

That looked incongruent with the other reports from the pro-Zimmerman side.
The Houston Chronicle identified her as Renee Vaughan:

Scanning the internet we found that a “Renee Vaughn” from Austin worked for a far left environmental group, the Texas Campaign for the Environment.

Renee even has her photo linked to a far left environmental website.


The article has an update -

UPDATE: Brandon Darby interviewed Renee Vaughan at the rally. She told him her sign means that “there are people here who are racist and apparently think that’s OK. I’m not one of them. I’m being sarcastic.”


Fanning the flames. How nice and bullshit to her sarcasm. She got caught.




OH I would not say that, The National Review, the most right wing racist publications in the US just printed a column telling it's reader to have their children stay away from blacks. Now talk about fanning the flames.

There's a kinda slight difference between a wingnut publication and a picture in an AP report, dontcha think?
Like 10 people,most of whom have already made up their minds re all causes political, will read the national review. Whereas an AP pic and story, yeah, that goes out on the national news wires and is frequently picked up, and reported, verbatim, no questions asked by papers worldwide.
They ain't exactly apples and oranges....

I won't go so far as to say that the findings "prove" he wasn't a racist, but the FBI, The Sanford PD and a jury all found that there was no racial basis on Z's behalf the night of the incident.



Pointing out the difference between what Zimmerman WAS and what he DID. His actions are subject to law, but his beliefs aren't. As if the facts of his actions didn't create enough uncertainty, people are now claiming to know his mind.

Cuz they have amazing superpowers!
Superfriends have united against Z, yet he still rescues trapped motorists from burning cars. He's like the Dark Knight-the hero our Gotham deserves :-)

(Don't kill me on that folks,I'm so being tongue in cheek...at least re the Batman comment)

Course, again, the fact that the feds had a team of 45 investigators vet Z's life, looking for any excuse/hint/lingering odor of racism and found nada-yeah, that don't mean nothing, right?
Utterly irrelevant in light of what people "know" or are "sure of."
Because their guts and biases, they know more bout what's going on at ground zero than the peeps there.
