Wednesday, May 23, 2012 8:13:11 PM Just symptomatic of our paradoxical role as the perpetual perpetrators and the simultaneous victims, Old Ollie - I've pointed out before how little Zimmerman resembles anyone from my family. |

EgalM - I don't think the mob cared what was going on. They saw a chance to beat on a white guy, had {in their mind} an excuse in Trayvon, so the did. I stopped trying to make sense of the senseless. |

Tuesday, May 22, 2012 6:28:32 AM How does a black guy getting out of prison intensify the situation? Are you F'ing kidding me people, how stupid can you be. It's not like the white guy was beating the black guy, he was holding him down according to witnesses. Did they not see the purse and wonder what a male was doing with it? Nope they saw whitey trying to keep the black man down. When will this sh^t end, yes your relatives and previous generations were treated badly, current generations have no excuses, they are doing it to themselfs now. |

Monday, May 21, 2012 10:37:06 PM You know what - I was pissed-off. I'm sorry. What I should have said was this: that attitude comes not from what you describe (which I began to rebut in my 2nd paragraph), but rather from my perspective the overbearing sense of entitlement and vindictiveness these communities have DUE to all the disproportionate race-based privileges in the professional and academic spheres which have been thrust upon them, and in added measure the race-baiting which has been perfected by their unelected community 'representatives.' Do white people need a figurehead to speak for us? I'd like to see one of ours get away with those kinds of shenanigans. |

Monday, May 21, 2012 10:27:15 PM "it happens whe a group feels so opressed and marginalized that they no longer see logic or reason in dealing with the dominant group." Have they ever seen logic or reason when dealing with this 'dominant group?' Oh yeah, back in the days when they actually WERE being marginalized and oppressed. I hope you're white jamie, and I hope you try touting this umbrella of tolerance in the next racially-charged minority area you find yourself in - I'm sure they'd love to hear you pining over the plights of the underprivileged while you're getting the white-bread beaten out of you. Like that girl who went to South Africa to protest Apartheid! |

Jamie, it also happens when you glorify thug culture. When a criminal persona is the "cultural hero" people emulate that bad example. People that glorify bad behavior will behave badly. It's not rocket science. |

Monday, May 21, 2012 6:51:49 PM this type of thing does not happen out of nowhere...it happens whe a group feels so opressed and marginalized that they no longer see logic or reason in dealing with the dominant group. I am not excusing what happened to this guy just trying to stop a mugger, but this isn't about black people just being racist or bad people.

Monday, May 21, 2012 5:13:25 PM I wonder how many 'strikes' Babb has used up. 11? 15? The exact same spot for the exact same crime after 3 years in jail? Obviously society is to blame! Link To Story What's with the Month Old stories about the Martin case? First the video and now this from April? Digging deep in the submission archives? lolz! |

Monday, May 21, 2012 4:41:49 PM @ Nickel2 OK,the next time you come here as a 'working visitor', and some lowlife character starts pummeling you within inches of your life, I will wait for the judge and the jury, to carry out their judgment rather than using the necessary measures to protect your longevity. Far be it from me to step in. |
