News of the verdict reached Leimert Park -- the "heart and soul of black L.A.," according to Ali -- in the midst of a celebration of Nelson Mandela's 95th birthday Saturday, said community member Rudolph Porter.

So, just to clarify:

Bullshit reason to smash things > dude who helped topple apartheid on his deathbed. I'm sure Nelson would approve of that.

This aftermath is causing people to do the thing I hate most:

1. Completely unaware of the facts, they think GZ was racist and hunting black folks and started the fight. They stopped listening to evidence after the first day of NBC's "reporting."

2. Being completely morally ignorant, saying even if he was getting his head bashed against a sidewalk (which he wasn't), he had no right to pull a gun.

3. Being absolutely certain of their own superiority and your stupidity if you don't agree with them.

A difference of opinion I can live with, but ignorant smugness pisses me off and makes me hate people.

This is why his ass should've stayed in the car.

My favorite part about riots is that they are trashing their own neighborhoods.

"Heading to point A to get some bread. No wait, I can't. We burned it down. Damn. Now I gotta walk all the way to point B. Hope it's not burned down too."

"Oh shit. That was your uncle's place we trashed? Oops. Sorry."

Feds seem disappointed they can't prosecute for hate crime. They could, they'd just lose. Then there's this that indicates the U.S. AG is looking into Florida's self-defense laws.

Parents open their mouths, prove themselves idiots. Grieving idiots, but idiots nonetheless.
I think that if Trayvon had been white, this wouldn't have ever happened. Obviously race is playing some type of role.
Only in your mind.
On ABC, Fulton said she wishes the jurors had "had an opportunity to really know who Trayvon was and to put that in context with what their decision was."
Good to know that the jury doesn't need to take into account who George Zimmerman was and put that in context.

Yeah, too bad the judge didn't allow such evidence. Such as the texts and pics from his phone suggesting he was into drugs, guns, and petty crime.

Charles Barkley.... is a pretty level headed fellow.

This goes along with what I said before... there were no huge riots because the majority of the black community weren't fooled by the race pimps this time around.

I am not Trayvon Martin. Somehow this has become huge.

Seay said he wrote the post to protest Stand Your Ground laws, which he said make it too easy to kill people in the U.S.


Which had exactly ZERO to do with the Martin/Zimmerman case.

Obama Opines:
You know, when Trayvon Martin was first shot, I said that this could have been my son. Another way of saying that is Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago. And when you think about why, in the African- American community at least, there’s a lot of pain around what happened here, I think it’s important to recognize that the African- American community is looking at this issue through a set of experiences and a history that -- that doesn’t go away.

There are very few African-American men in this country who haven’t had the experience of being followed when they were shopping in a department store. That includes me.


Me. Me. ME. It's always about ME.

Also, my God what a cumbersome phrase: "African American Community." Can we just go back to "blacks?" One syllable FTW.

Zimmerman helps people out of a wrecked car.

Ted Kennedy says, "That could have been me, 44 years ago."

After reading the story, I sort of wonder why the headline didn't say something like: "Zimmerman suspected of causing SUV crash, helps victims from wreck"

That would be more properly aligned with the media's story about the guy, right?

Not enough lake. Ted's also been dead for a bit. Finally, he would've had to have called sooner than eight hours after the accident. Ted wishes his accident went this smoothly.

I bet the people he helped were black, since the article didn't mention the race.

Stevie Wonder is apparently boycotting Florida.

Ted kind of comes off as an asshole, particularly this:
He didn't have very nice things to say about Martin, either, characterizing the slain youth as "dope-smoking" and a "hoodlum."

Yeah, because Ted knew him personally.
