Why is Obama touting a guy who committed a racist, homophobic attack

    Hussein Obama once said that if he had a son, he would look like Trayvon Martin. We all remember Trayvon Martin as the young thug who had a history of drug use and assault who violently attacked George Zimmerman because of Zimmerman's race and the face that Martin thought Zimmerman was a homosexual. It turns out Martin messed with the wrong guy and in self defense Zimmerman killed the young criminal.

    Now fast forward a few years and we have Obama still trying to re-write history. He actually has a foundation dedicated to this Trayvon Martin. With leaders like Obama, Sharpton, Farrakan, Jackson, and Maxine Waters, is it any wonder this African Americans cant get a head.

    My Brothers Keeper is an alliance launched by Mr Obama following the killing of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in 2012. The initiative represents a call to arms to “adopt innovative approaches, strengthen support, and build ladders of opportunity for boys and young men of colour.”

    The shooting of Trayvon — an unarmed African American teen — sparked widespread outrage, and a national discussion about the persistent violence inflicted on men and women of color in the United States.

    This is sick.

    Yeah, wondering whether Obama is going to support breakdancing as a new Olympic sport in 2024 or just go straight to twerking.

    Shit is getting real.

  6. This was never claimed by any party to the case in the court of law, it is completely made up.

    What is true is ZImmerman went after Martin when he was told by police to back off:

    "About 7 p.m.: George Zimmerman, a 28-year-old neighborhood watch captain, calls 911 to report "a suspicious person" in the gated community Retreat at Twin Lakes. Zimmerman says he is following Martin after the teen started to run, prompting the dispatcher to tell him, "We don't need you to do that." Zimmerman pursues Martin anyway"

    What is funny is that you tout being able to pull out a gun and shoot someone if they break into your home or threaten you, but Zimmerman is pursuing this kid who did nothing wrong and Martin defends himself and gets killed for it. Zimmerman gets nothing for disobeying the police. Remember....obey the police and you won't get shot. Disobey the police and you can shoot someone.

    Uhm what? Martin attacked Zimmerman and was beating him senseless when Zimmerman pulled a gun and shot him.

    Is Zimmerman a jackass for acting like law enforcement and confronting Martin verbally? Yes. Did Zimmerman defend himself against assault? Yes, and a jury thought so too.
     
  8. So ZImmerman was just walking around minding his own business when he got jumped for no reason by Martin out of no where?

    OP claimed Martin attacked Zimmerman because of his race and that he thought he was a homosexual. that bullshit you are ok with I guess..

    The point is that Zimmerman did not attack Martin. Zimmerman obnoxiously followed Martin and stupidly confronted Martin verbally. Martin then physically attacked Zimmerman. See how that works?

    Completely incorrect.

    We can only go by what was said in court. Trayvon Martin called the guy a "creepy ass cracker" and thought he was a gay rapist. IN YOUR FACE, PAL.
