They told me if I voted for John McCain…

…that we’d see an increase in militia activity, and they were right!
Black Panthers offer $10,000 bounty to catch Trayvon killer

Group also hopes to form militia as racial tension soars after killing of black teenager in Florida
Plus: the curious appearance in press reports of a new ethnic sub-group – the “white Hispanic”.

Apparently Hispanics are considered Caucasian because Caucasians are from Europe, and Hispanics are of Spanish descent.

I wonder how La Raza and the National Black Panther Party will get along once militia become fashionable?

Obama, Planet Healer, raises the anti.

Thing is, he already had the black vote; why did he feel the need to pander to it. Especially as he does NOT have the black American experience, being a wealthy African kid, and not a slave in his background.

For him, it's just about skin color, isn't it?

Hispanics include people of white, Indian, black and Asian racial types, and even all of them mixed together. I find it interesting that Zimmerman was singled out by the NYT as being specifically "white" Hispanic; guess that helps to "clarify" the narrative.

No doubt the narrative is "white ain't black, that's what counts".

Sounds like incitment to murder to me. Isn't that illegal? Not that I'd expect Eric Holder to proceed against "his people" on such a charge, even if the DoJ had jurisdiction. But I don't expect any local prosecutors to do so either. Lynching is supposed to be illegal, but not, evidently, if the lynchers are black.

It now appears that Martin was trying to beat the guy's head in by smashing it against the pavement. Oops, that doesn't fit the narrative of unprovoked killing.

It's all about racism, see. And only whites are racists, so even tho Zimmerman is "white Hispanic", it's his white side that makes him so.

By this reasoning, any man that is half white is racist. For instance, let's say Obama had a white mother. Then he would be a racist.

Oh, wait....

Michael: I've been wondering about that, too.

Some Hispanics are white, being of pure Spanish descent, for example:

Ricardo Montalban, Mexican.
Cesar Romero, Argentinian
Marco Rubio, Cuban
Antonia Banderas, Spanish
etc.

Hispanics, like "whites", are lumped into some monolithic aggregate in the interest of our present poisonous racial politics, without regard for reality.

In any case, race is immaterial in the Martin killing, except for the one fundamental fact that Zimmerman isn't black. If Zimmerman had been black, ho hum, no story.
