The left’s stupidity over the Zimmerman verdict encapsulated
First off, this is a bit unfair because I’m about to quote Jesse Jackson, but peering into insanity can sometimes teach us…things…
UPDATE:
Jesse Jackson just called on U.N. to Intervene in Zimmerman Case, WOW. After saying Trayvon ‘deserved jury of peers’ http://t.co/08m5LhzY70

And it’s time to call on the United Nations Human Rights Commission for an in-depth investigation of whether the U.S. is upholding its obligations under international human-rights laws and treaties,”
When asked about the Zimmerman verdict, Rev. Jackson stated that it was a “tremendous miscarriage of justice,” adding that Zimmerman was “at least guilty of murder.” (At least?) And then he laid the golden egg; Asked about the makeup of the jury on MSNBC he stated:
There was no man on the jury — Trayvon was a black boy — there was no man, no black on the jury. So at least the idea of jury of your peers was a stretch all the while.
America, Trayvon Martin wasn’t on trial. Our constitution grants the accused in a trial a “jury of one’s peers,” not the victim.
It’s laughable, but it’s also illuminating. Many on the left (not all) would be happy to have justice be damned in the name of other causes; gun control, racism, equality and class.
Nowhere on the internet does stupid get more magnified than on the site DailyKos.com:
I actually threw together a Bad Lip Reading style video of Rev. Jackson only I didn’t have to change…anything:
What Jesse Jackson ought to be addressing is why violence was TM’s first choice in responding to the situation. He could have talked, ran, or called the police. Instead he was on the phone with someone he didn’t even ask to call the cops and chose to assault, batter, and threaten to kill. But Jesse takes the easy way out and screams racism instead of helping his people be lifted out of poverty and violence. Think about it. He simply wants to turn a simple profit and feel self important. He has no interest in helping blacks other that giving them a victim mentality.
Unless you’ve visited Democratic Underground, Salon.com, or other leftist sites in the last couple of day, you really don’t understand how stupid, ugly, and racist the left really is.
I spent a tiny bit of time at Salon.com today on ugly, ugly “hate whitey” threads trying to have the “racial” discussion the left has been calling for throughout the Zimmerman ordeal.
They didn’t really engage. They just called me names.
Seriously, here are a couple of the titles of articles that Salon.com is featuring that I responded to:
– Our real problem is white rage
– White supremacy, meet black rage
I guess that they can’t even agree on who is enraged. But I suppose someone certainly needs to be. 🙂
It’s unreal.
