Exploiting and Fearing Trayvon Martin
Commenting on the February killing of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida, Stephanie Cutter, Obama’s Deputy Campaign Manager, said on MSNBC last week that President Barack Hussein Obama’s ”Republican opponents have jumped all over him because they do want to play politics with this issue.”
In apparent reference to Obama’s inappropriate intrusion in a local matter and making it personal by saying, “If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon,” Ms. Cutter went on to add that, “The President spoke from his heart on this, it was trying to empathize with some parents who had just lost a child. By any measure, this was a tragedy and we need to let the investigation take its course.” (http://bit.ly/GWEZid)
Ms. Cutter is in serious need of a reality check.
As with the 2009 incident between Cambridge cop, Sgt. Joe Crowley, and Professor Henry Louis Gates, Jr., when Ms. Cutter’s boss rushed to judgement and alleged Crowley acted “stupidly” without knowing any details about the confrontation, the president has again acted stupidly by intruding himself in the investigation.
Coincidentally, that intrusion occurred just eight months before a national election as Obama is trying to shore up his black and minority bases.
It is the president, his rabid supporters such as Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, and the New Black Panther Party, and his mainstream media who have shamelessly exploited the death of Trayvon Martin.
Even if Republicans wanted to politicize Martin’s death, what political gain could be achieved by exploiting the shooting a black youth?
The only advantage that could be gained would accrue to Democrats and their media lapdogs to use the shooting to tar Republicans with a racist label and as a tool to push for tighter gun control, both of which efforts have already begun and neither of which makes much sense.
First of all, George Zimmerman is a registered Democrat and half Latino so, if blame must be assigned, blame Democrats and minorities.
Second of all, since the Democrat Party is hell-bent on gutting the Second Amendment, their focus should be on the African-American community where most gun crimes are committed and where there exists justifiable fear of black men.
In a rare excursion into honesty, Rev. Jesse Jackson said in March, 1996, “There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery. Then look around and see somebody White and feel relieved.”
As President Barack Hussein Obama admitted in March, 2008, his white grandmother . . . (Read more at http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=20498.)

Consequences, Intended and Not
Consequences, Intended and Not
Planning is usually a prudent thing to do and, usually, the planning pans out. Sometimes, though, especially when the planning is done by politicians, unintended consequences of misbegotten schemes make you wonder where the pols’ heads are.
Communist regimes are big on planning. Five Year Plans to re-vamp its economy were always a big favorite with the old U.S.S.R. commissars and always resulted in big failures.
One of the few sad remnants of Communism, North Korea, also has little luck when it comes to economics although it is spectacular in staging funerals. The recent obsequies for its late dictator Kim Jong-il were no exception.
North Korea demonstrated its expertise in not only planning its Supreme Leader’s funeral but in its consequences for hapless North Koreans who didn’t cry enough.
As an informant reported, within days of Kim Jong-il’s death, “The authorities are handing down at least six months in a labour-training camp to anybody who didn’t participate in the organised gatherings during the mourning period, or who did participate but didn’t cry and didn’t seem genuine.”
So much for Communism, so much for the dictatorship of the proletariat where the proles are forced to grieve for a bloody tyrant.
More relevant to Americans are interesting intended and unintended consequences in the U.S.
Last month, the FBI released a report indicating that violent crime in the U.S. fell 6.4 percent in the first half of 2011 and property crimes fell by 3.7 as contrasted with the same time 2010 time period.
That was the unexpected good news.
The bad news–for liberals who seek to disarm law-abiding citizens–is that the increasing number of armed law-abiding citizens in the country no doubt accounted in large part for the drop in crime.
As proven in Florida and elsewhere, criminals are far less inclined to maim, murder, and break into homes and businesses when their prospective victims are prepared to blow them away.
The intent of gun laws is to inhibit the unrestricted ownership of guns, the true consequence of which is to concentrate guns in the hands of criminals while denying honest Americans the right to defend themselves. The joke on liberals is that the latter stocking up on weapons to defend themselves serves as a deterrent against the former.
In a related issue, a presumed unintended consequence of excessive liberality has led to excessive violence.
A federal court judge decided last year that allegedly non-violent California prisoners were uncomfortable in their crowded facilities. He didn’t comment on the discomfort felt by their victims but did order California to give more space to the perpetrators. Strapped California had no money to build more prisons and chose instead to release thousands of convicted and accused “non-violent” offenders into society.
According to La Puente Mayor John Solis, his city and others are suffering the consequences of the judge’s beneficence. Solis reports that ”Sexual assaults are up about 300 percent and assaults with guns and knives up nearly 150 percent citywide” since the release of the reprobates.
He blames “prison realignment,” a euphemism for loosing barbarians in a state where gun laws are strictly enforced and a resultant explosion of barbarity.

Black on White Crime: The Video
Black on White Crime: The Video
They rarely make the front pages nor the lead story on the evening television news, if they are mentioned in most newspapers papers or on TV at all. However, the absence of publicity serves only to illustrate the mass media’s reluctance to report on black on white crime and not to mitigate the frequency and the violence of such racist crimes.
Whether motivated by the prevailing aura of political correctness or by some other sinister motives, that MSM failure doesn’t alter the truth that incidents of blacks assaulting, maiming, killing whites in America is approaching epidemic proportions. Of late, fast food restaurants seem to be the preferred venues for the attacks.
The latest example occurred at a McDonalds in Rosedale, a suburb of Baltimore on April 18th. A video of the extended assault, filmed by a black employee who posted it on YouTube Friday, is unsettling for various reasons. Not only is the defenseless, 22 year old, white victim seen being mercilessly pummeled by two black females, ages 14 and 18, but black McDonalds employees pass by and do little to stop the wild attack or to offer assistance.
With screeches emanating from her assailants, the white girl is repeatedly punched and kicked in the head by the black girls, then dragged by the hair toward the front door and the parking lot until they are told the police had been called and an older white woman intercedes.
At that point, they get in a few last minute kicks and leave the white girl writhing on the floor apparently suffering from a seizure. The videographer is heard saying, “She’s bleeding, yo. Her mouth bleeding, her mouth bleeding! She’s having a [expletive] seizure, yo! She’s having a seizure right now, she needs help right now! Ya’al better get the [expletive] out of here now!”
