Trayvon Martin Day

This is really showing their students that mob opinion is more important then our courts.

I agree that we should wait until Mr. Zimmerman have had his day in court. What I was implying is that, in essence, their idea of teaching their students about social equality is a huge step towards helping defuse racial divisiveness but, by the same token, I also believe that they could just as well call it something other than Trayvon Martin Day.

Nonetheless, let us not forget that mainstream perception has the historical tendency of becoming reality.

Now I'm waiting for Obama to declare a national holiday for Trayvon "Thug" Martin...

I will grant you that I have not seen or heard exactly what was said at this event. However, I have lived and worked in Prince Georges county in Maryland and have expectations based on that experience. I expect it will be a pity party for Trayvon. I expect that George Zimmerman, if he is mentioned at all, will be portrayed in negative light. I expect they will not mention "due process", "legal procedure", or "rule of law" except to say something like "Zimmerman denied Trayvon his due process and gunned him down."

I will be pleasantly surprised if the event turns out any other way.

I bought skillets today for my kids and told them to never carry them while wearing a hoodie and assaulting "white hispanics" or they would probably get shot

Describe these skillets? are they just ordinary non stick or did you spring for the cast iron that they will pass down to their kids with memories of how America used to be

I knew there was something off about that post, but I moved too quickly to the next thread to pick up on it. HAHAHAHA.

Well I wholeheartedly disagree. I think, as you said in your previous post, there is a great deal of racial divisiveness in this country today.

I also think it's perpetuated more by blacks than it is whites. This whole Trayvon thing is another excuse for many in the black community to once again play the victim card. Instead of doing something constructive the administrators of this school are furthering the misguided agendas of idiots like Sharpton and Jackson.

Nonetheless, let us not forget that mainstream perception has the historical tendency of becoming reality.

Yeah...like voting for the first "black president" who has no real world experience might be a good idea.

Yes; that right there is a good example!
