News Media Pimps
For some reason, the news media has picked this one incident to dwell on racial discrimination and vilify our judicial system.
Attorney General Eric Holder "Stand Your Ground" allows, encourages escalating violence"
CBS News - '"Justice For Trayvon Martin"
Forbes - "The Whole System Failed Trayvon Martin"
Al Sharpton - organizing "Justice for Trayvon" rallies
Bottom line: George Zimmerman was found not guilty by a jury (selected by both sides) and based on Florida law. The jury's decision was based on facts and evidence and should be respected.
President Obama - "we are a nation of laws, and the jury has spoken,"
BUT - as usual, the capital-based news media, spurred on by any inflammatory controversy, regardless of facts, is using this case to inflame the public so more newspapers and TV time could be sold. The more controversy stirred up, the more money they make.
Finally, walk a mile in GZ's shoes. In the exact same situation, would you have shot anyone who started beating you up?
YUP!
