Trayvon Martin Case: My Opinion

"Why are you not talking about this more? You said you think Zimmerman is guilty of Racism? You said you think he should have been arrested. You said the Police should be fired. What about all this new evidence coming out,,,,,,,,,"

Hey folks,

"Do you still hold to your original opinion? Open your eyes man!!!" My eyes are WIDE open TC. The following is for TC and anyone else out there that think I'm not talking about this case enough. Completely unintended by me, this entire Big Sunday Edition, with the exception of the Health and Science Segment has turned into the Trayvon Martin Case. So you want me to talk about this. OK. Lets talk.

First, here are the FACTS we know. A Black guy, in a Hoodie {Be he Six Feet Talk with Dreads or not} is walking down a street in a Gated Community. A HISPANIC Male, the Captain of the Neighborhood Watch sees him. He called 911. He CHASES the Black Guy down the Street. Now some of this new information says that he looses the Black Guy. The Black Guy now known to be Trayvon Martin then comes up from behind Zimmerman and attacks him. Zimmerman Shoots him dead.

Some of you are not going to like me too much here, but if Zimmerman never engaged Martin, NONE of this would have taken place. So I DO blame Zimmerman for initiating first contact and triggering the Situation. No pun intended. Did he engage Martin because he was Black? Seems like it to me. But we do not have all the Facts. Does the Police Report make sense? No. Does it look like they may be attempting to hide something? Yes.

I have NO problem whatsoever in standing with the Community and demanding answers. But NONE of this is my main issue with this. THIS is.

At least two people were killed and 11 others wounded in violence across Chicago overnight, most of the victims from just two shootings on the West and South sides, according to police.

Suspects were being questioned in one of the shootings, the killing of a man near his home on the Far South Side, officials said.

The worst shooting occurred around 6 p.m. Thursday when two men in hooded sweatshirts opened fire inside a convenience store in the 1400 block of West 79th Street in the Gresham neighborhood, police said.

One man was killed and five others were wounded. The victims ranged in age from 16 to 24.

The gunmen fled in an SUV and police continued searching for them this morning.

About four hours later, four people were standing in a parking lot in the 4100 block of West Roosevelt Road when a black car drove up and gunfire rang out.

A 29-year-old man was shot in the arm, a second man the same age was shot in the leg, a 27-year-old man was shot in the leg and a 36-year-old man was shot in the thigh, police said. They were all taken by a friend to Mount Sinai Hospital, police said.

The gunman's car fled west on Roosevelt Road and north on Keeler Avenue, police said.

Other shootings:

-- A 31-year-old man was shot and killed across the street from his home on 113th Place between State Street and South Michigan Avenue, police said. David Gulley, 31, was pronounced dead at Roseland Community Hospital about 5:10 p.m., according to the Cook County medical examiner's office said.

Calumet District officers saw the shooting and brought several people in for questioning, police said. Up to three guns were recovered, police said. The people were still being questioned as of 5 a.m. today, police said.

-- A 24-year-old man was shot in the buttocks in the 11800 block of South Ashland Avenue about 5 p.m. on the Far South Side, police said. He was walking down the street when two people approached on foot and opened fire, police said.

He was stable Advocate Christ Medical Center, police said. No one was in custody this morning.

-- About 10:15 p.m., a man in his 30s was shot in the leg in the 13100 block of South Ellis Avenue. He was taken to Metro South Medical Center in Blue Island, police said.

And this?
Breitbart.com - Hoodie-Wearing Gunmen Kill 1, Wound 5 in Bobby Rush's Chicago District by Dan Rieh

Former Black Panther Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL) made quite a fuss when he donned a "hoodie" during a speech in the U.S. House of Representatives until he was escorted out. At the time, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) "applauded his courage" for doing so.

Meanwhile, back home in Rush's district, two men wearing hooded sweatshirts, or "hoodies," were the shooters in an incident that left one dead and five injured.

In fact, during a span of six-hours Thursday night, 13 people were shot, leaving two dead in Chicago. It would seem it takes more courage to simply walk down the street in Rush's district than it does to wear a hooded sweatshirt in the House of Representatives by way of a stunt in a bizarre tribute to a young man shot and killed in Florida during a shooting incident still under investigation.
Or THIS..Time - Spike Lee's Incorrect Tweet Causes Elderly Couple To Flee Home

70 year old couple - Famed director Spike Lee was forced to apologize after retweeting an incorrect tweet thought to reveal the address of George Zimmerman, who fatally shot 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.

The Sanford, Fla. address Lee tweeted out to his more than 250,000 followers actually belongs to an elderly couple, David McClain, 72, and his 70-year-old wife Elaine, who subsequently received threats and hate mail directed at Zimmerman, the Orlando Sentinel reports. The negative attention, along with a few visits from reporters seeking Zimmerman, forced the bewildered couple to temporarily move into a hotel.
This is all a direct result of Race Baiters and the Media hyping this ONE Incident up. This is all because the Mother of Trayvon is attempting to Trademark his name. This is all because Obama jumped into the mix. All because Jesse and AL are involved. OH, I love this VIDEO. I posted it on FACEBOOK.

Congresswoman Corrine Brown (D-Fla.) insisted on CNN Wednesday that her colleagues‘ outrage over teen Trayvon Martin’s death was not solely because Martin was black — but faltered when asked to name the murdered “young white female” Brown said she was just as concerned about.
I really do not care if Al and Jesse, Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL), or Stars, or even the President himself, want to make this an opportune moment to gain Political Points, 15 minutes, Financial Gain, or whatever. They are stoking the flames. They are making things worse than they EVER needed to be.

Murders and Killings happen all the time here. We never hear of 99 percent of them. This one? This one has tried and Convicted Zimmerman before all the facts are in. This one is throwing Fuel on the Fire. This one is going to cause MORE innocent people to get killed. From the Politicians looking for Political Gains, the Race Baiters looking for more Fame and Fortune, and the Media sensationalizing this for whatever reason, it is my fear that this will end badly.

I said it before, I'll say it again. I will stand with the community and demand Answers. From the fact he was not Arrested, or even detained for any length of time, to the inconsistencies in the Police Report and Videos that are out there, I have no problem with an outside agency coming in to Investigation this Incident. I would rather it NOT be the Obama Administration's Justice Department of whom we already know is Bias, but an outside Agency non-the-less. It is my fear however, that even if Zimmerman is found innocent here, he will still be hunted down and slaughtered like an animal. This will lead to even MORE Violence by others to seek to revenge HIS death. So on the cycle goes.

This is a terrible and tragic Incident. Someone lost their life. A Mother lost her child. But to further the Violence and the divide of the Races for Personal Gain is insane. It needs to end. It needs to end NOW.

Be right back with MUCH more on this, in just a second.
