Nothing at all. But you open with a tenuous connecction between Zimmerman, whom you've already convicted (despite the fact that Florida officials have declined to press charge yet), and Mormons or Mormonism. Knowing full well that no one on this board will call you on how unfair that is. Knowing full well that all you have to do is mention racism and something to do with Mormons and Mormonism in the same sentence or paragraph and you will be cheered and supported and buttressed by more clever rhetorical points that have little to do with how Mormons actually live but more to do with your own, and their own, religious bigotry.

But if you're going to do that, this is the place to do it.

Do you have anything that could add to this that would help clarify things?


Nope. I just hope justice will be done and someone doesn't get hanged as a scapegoat. Justice may or may not mean Zimmerman goes free. Seems unlikely with Obama, Farrakhan, and Sharpton stirring up people to race baiting and violence. Racism from whites was largely abolished decades ago. The Left has to keep it and racism from blacks going in order to maintain a ready supply of voters and mobs.

Although I don't think he should have made the OP, it was about bcsapce and maybe a couple of other people who make the insanely stupid argument about the ban not being about race but decent.

Only in a frenzied mind can an innocent black kid minding his own business get shot and killed by an overzealous gun-toting authoritarian and Obama be the racist. Astonishing.

This has yet to be determined. We live in America thank goodness. But you are proposing that the constitution be made null and void.

Obama be the racist.


He's weighed in to stir it up and play the race card for his campaign. Obama therefore is a racist.

I never said anything about any conspiracies. I don't know why the guy hasn't been arrested or charged. It's a question many have been asking. And, lest you think it is only liberal "race-baiters" who are questioning it, your buddy Mitt said today: "What happened to Trayvon Martin is a tragedy. There needs to be a thorough investigation that reassures the public that justice is carried out with impartiality and integrity." Newt Gingrich called what happened a "tragedy" that warrants a grand jury investigation. Senator Frothy said: "It's a horrible case, and it's chilling to hear what happened ... I think it's pretty clear the problems we're seeing in this case, and hopefully the state Attorney General and local community is reacting and responding, and hopefully this matter will be an example of what law enforcement has to do in a case like this." I guess the GOP presidential contenders all have profound tolerance for conspiracies, too, eh?

Where in the hell did you get that from? I am proposing that a man who shot and killed someone under extremely suspicious circumstances be arrested and, if there is sufficient evidence, he be charged with a crime and tried. If he has a valid defense and the prosecutors are unable to make their case beyond a reasonable doubt, then justice will have been done. As noted, people who care about justice whether democrat, republican, white, black, or whatever, think there is something highly unusual about the fact that the shooter in this case was not even arrested. It's bizarre. And you seem to think that calling for an investigation into why the shooter was not arrested is "racist" and somehow also tantamount to trying to make the constitution null and void. You are completely whack.

And your a pretentious ass. Again.

President Obama wrote:I think every parent in America should be able to understand why it is absolutely imperative that we investigate every aspect of this and that everybody pulls together, federal state and local to figure out exactly how this tragedy happened.


Where is the race baiting? By the way, "playing the race card" does not, in itself, make one a racist. Obama is not playing any race card here, but even if he did, that's not the same as being a racist. Once again, the fact that you are so deficient in logical thinking explains much about how you are able to continue to believe fanciful things.

What I wrote earlier in this thread, EQ.

Me to. And that deserves some thoughtful, comprehensive investigation. It does NOT deserve reflexively accusing this guy of racism because it serves some agenda.
