In reply to the discussion: Today is Trayvon Martin's 18th birthday. [View all]noiretextatique
(27,275 posts)52. he is convinced that Martin is dead
because, like all BLACK MALES, he was violent towards poor zimmerman. he is also convinced that the kindly zimmerman was doing a service to the neighborhood by stalking "suspicious looking" people, like Martin. he is also convinced that assholes like zimmerman have some "right" to harass BLACK PEOPLE, especially BLACK MALES. and BLACK PEOPLE, especially BLACK MALES should docilely sumbit to questioning by random, suspicious assholes like zimmerman...because: as everyone knows, BLACK PEOPLE ARE SUSPECT.
and there you have it.
he's on my ignore list.
