See, the point of the OP is that not only is Obama to blame for no jobs but that Trayvon Martin is guilty in own murder because blacks are out of work unskilled and uneducated and THAT is the problem here, not racism, silly!

I cannot roll my eyes hard enough at this disgusting right wing trollery. So blatant it's not even to be believed.
