This changes nothing--and a proposal regarding the New Black Panthers.

Glad that some more facts are coming out in the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman fiasco.

It seems that unlike the portrayals by the rabble-rousing asshole Al Sharpton and other race-baiters of his stinking ilk, little Trayvon Marin wasn't quite the angelic altar boy they portrayed him out to be.

He was in the midst of a four-day suspension from school because of possession of drugs, according to the Miami Herald. Another report claims this was his second suspension from as many high schools in as many years.

There are some stories circulating with links that allegedly show Trayvon Martin's "gangsta alias" profiles on MySpace and Twitter and Facebook. Lots of pictures of guns, his tattoos (autopsy report should show conclusively how many--if any--tattoos Martin had) and comments.

If true, Martin was no angel. Sad, because other links to sites hosted by his (alleged) family members show a pretty typical All-American family. Unfortunately, good kids sometimes go bad. Our jails and prisons--and cemeteries--are full of such examples.

But recent reports are also showing something else about the Zimmerman/Martin incident.

It seems that according to witnesses, Zimmerman was getting his butt kicked.

But this changes nothing.

The facts are, and always will be, Zimmerman was in his SUV and had a cell phone and his gun. He was in direct contact with the police. He was in absolutely zero danger.

He chose, willingly, to exit his vehicle and accost Martin. Zimmerman put his own well-being at risk.

It is my sincere hope that any closet "hero-wannabe" who has their CHL and fantasizes about chasing down bad guys learns something from this case.

Now, for the New Black Panthers who put out a bounty on Zimmerman. . .

I propose a bounty be put on the head of every single active member of the New Black Panthers. And if a member of the black community itself turns one of these racist alpha-hotels in, then I propose the reward be tripled.

Never forget that such groups like the New Black Panthers, the Ku Klux Klowns, Aryan Nazikooks and other race-baiting hate-groups exist to divide--not unite.

And never forget that the mainstream media will always give them attention and coverage if it means or presents the opportunity to cause yet more controversy and division between the races.

People of ALL races are smarter that than. Do not fall prey to the antics of those who make their living by creating, stirring up and feeding hate, division and controversy.

Do we no longer trust the Grand Jury process? Or did we only trust it when OJ Simpson was on trial?
Where is George Zimmerman's civil rights, when we see the Black Panthers, Spike Lee, the NAACP, Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson, and the President of the United States already saying that he's guilty?
And all the rest of the racists in America already deciding he is guilty!
How can he get a fair trial when The Race-Card president speaks out against him?
And how come Obama and Holder don't speak out against what the the Black Panthers are doing?
How can he get a fair trial when Spike Lee, Holder, Al Sharpton and the Black Panthers stirs up the lynch mob along with the other race hustlers?
The New Black Panthers are no better than and reminiscent of the KKK.....

Hmpffff. You are probably right Tex, as far as legalities go.

BUT: this kid was a bomb and all he needed was a trigger by the looks of it. And, like it or not - he was defused - permanently.

We talk about 'taking our nation back' and 'taking our communities back'. The Z-man was doing that. He was the lawful occupant of a gated community - and the black kid was not. And I will bet that more develops: this kid probably has a history in the community too.

If this guy popped some gang banging piece of crap - I am good with it. Some black communities are seriously out of control and need a wake-up call.

Maybe this is one of them. For now I say buy the man a beer or at least give him a fair shake until all the details are out.

"The Z-man was doing that"

i.e. he "was a bomb and all he needed was a trigger . . .": and he had one.

It blows up both ways. That's why people are free to talk smack.

Yeah, race baiters like Sharpton, Jackson et al are out there stirring the pot, and I personally think a bounty on ANY of the groups like that is the right way to go...

Every ethnicity has a majority and a minority. The minority portion of the respective community is usually identified with the racial slurs and epitaphs that oddly enough, when they use on each other is okay--but when anyone outside their ethnicity uses, becomes racist.

The Asian community has a portion that is out of control. The Hispanic community has a portion that is out of control. Sure as hell, the white community has a portion that is out of control.

The black community does not have a lock or exclusivity on problems within their own community.

What's more, I'll grant you that there are more TRUE leaders in the black community who are concerned over what is going on than there are in the Asian, Hispanic and White communities.

Race has exactly zero to do with this whole Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman case.

Martin's father lived in the community and as such, Trayvon Martin had every legal right to be where he was.

Zimmerman had a right to keep tabs on him.

Zimmerman did NOT have a right, or authority, to leave his vehicle and accost Martin. Zimmerman was safe INSIDE his vehicle--he had a cell phone and gun, for crying out loud.

For where I stand, I could care less if Martin ambushed Zimmerman or Zimmerman started the crap and quickly found himself on the wrong end.

Fact is, Zimmerman (apparently) thought that he could "handle" a situation that was NOT a situation and that his CHL was some sort of a talisman.

The result was a questionable shooting that need not have happened and a huge cloud of suspicion and aversion cast upon the entire law-abiding gun community.

IF Martin had followed Zimmerman back to Zimmerman's property, it would be different. IF Martin had been skulking around Zimmerman's property, it would be different. IF Martin had run up to Zimmerman's SUV and yanked him out then started assaulting him, it would be different.

That is not what happened. Zimmerman left the safety and sanctuary of his SUV to go and play cop.

And we, the law-abiding responsible gun-owning public is paying for his cranial rectitus.

I so love when you read my mind and post it. Thanks! This was a stupid play blown into a national circus. Now Mr. Smart, is in hiding, which sucks. I am pretty sure he is very much regretting his actions for so many reasons. Taking a life is never supposed to be an easy thing and the impact was already likely haunting him. Add the now national impact and death threats and this is just a horrible AVOIDABLE situation. This is why having a permit should be about defense not offense.
