Nope. Just pointing out that likely none of them have fathers in their lives, which is a huge problem in the black community. The negative effects of this problem are obvious. You can choose to bury your head in the sand, as most of the black community also does, or you can admit it is a problem and work to address it.
I fear my last statement will never happen. And it isn't getting better, it's getting worse.
But yeah, police oppression is the black community's biggest issue. Not 70-80% children being fatherless or insanely disproportional STD rates or disproportional violent crime rates or low educational test scores or the perpetual underclass or poor health (obesity, heart disease, cancer rates, diabetes, etc)

Maria Hamilton, Mother Of Dontre Hamilton: This case isn’t a household name because Hamilton grabbed an officer’s baton and hit him in the neck with it before the officer shot him. The officer was fired because Hamilton was a diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic.
Lucia McBath, Mother Of Jordan Davis: Jordan Davis was murdered by Michael David Dunn at a gas station in Florida. Davis was playing his music loudly in his car; Dunn confronted him, then got a gun and shot 10 rounds into the car. Dunn (correction) was convicted of first degree murder. So what exactly is the problem with the criminal justice system or police, then?
Geneva Reed-Veal, Mother Of Sandra Bland. Sandra Bland committed suicide while in police custody. Rumors of an evil police murder and coverup circulated on the internet, but there was no evidence to back any of them.

No one deserves to die...or be without a father Max. You act as if you missed the point. I know damn well you got it fully. You are just deflecting.

So what really did happen on that night?
I don't know, which means Zimmerman is not guilty.
Thank you for your honesty. You dont know how many people dont have the guts to say that.
That's what I've always said. That's because I'm talking about what the law says.
If you think Zimmerman should be guilty, then you tell me what happened that night. And prove it in a court of law subject to the rules of evidence. Until you can do that, you have to vote not guilty. And thanks to the rabble rousers on the left, the DA had to go to trial before there was enough evidence to prove that. So he walked.
George Zimmerman assaulted a cop before the Trayvon incident. The way he is getting off from going to prison is because his father is a judge. If you, me or anybody else in this thread killed Trayvon? We would be in prison. It is unfair judicial system that a son of a powerful public figure or the wealthy could get off scott free while the rest of us can not.

Not with the evidence that was presented against George Zimmerman. The prosecution failed to provide sufficient competent evidence to prove the commission of any crime, certainly not murder.
What happened between the time George Zimmerman got out of his car and the time Trayvon Martin was dead? How do you know? Not some maybe this, maybe that. Proof of exactly what happened, minute by minute, beyond a reasonable doubt. Without that, you can't convict him of any crime. And the prosecution didn't have that.
Maybe if there had not been such pressure for a vigilante rush to judgement, the prosecution might have had time to put together a case. But that's not what happened.

We are against the party of Jim Crowe. Oh, wait a sec--the Democratic Party invented and passed Jim Crowe laws. Republicans were against it. Oopsie!
We are against anyone who divides people. Oh, wait a sec--the Democratic Party promotes division of families. Oopsie!
People should be able to keep the fruits of their labor. Oh, wait a sec--the democratic Party is for forcibly taking away money the poor and middle class earn. Oopsie!
We could go on and on but it's the same ol' lies: Democrats promote authoritarianism and fascism. Republicans promotes freedom for all (rich and poor) and responsibility for all (rich and poor, black and white.)
NPR talked about how moving MO's comment about the difficulty of raising African American children in a White House built by slaves. MO just doubled down on her obnoxious hating of America. Apparently the Democrats lapped it up.

Yeah, it was so difficult they sent them to elite private schools with bodyguards. I bet they have a wall around it too.
