April 14, 201214 yr I haven't listened to the audio, so I can't comment on that. I marvel at your ability to throw Obama under the bus at every turn. I will say there is no way that George Zimmerman is either found guilty or acquitted by November...I doubt his trial date is even set for any date this calendar year. Unless the defense tries to draw it out I would be surprised if this case isn't in court by mid summer.

Well Obama does speak a lot on local matters and racial issues, just thought this was right up his alley for a teachable moment.
April 17, 201214 yr Not necessarily. Of course, MLK is more famous, but Malcolm was trying to cure blacks of WDD by preaching self-reliance, self rightousness and knowledge of your history and others, and not just what is taught in school. As much as I love pigs feet and white women, I would still take Malcom's approach. How would you define his approach??
April 17, 201214 yr President's do often speak on local matters but did Bush speak out every time the Kansas bunch spoke out? NewBPP is no different and you guys keep referring to them as the Black Panthers, they are not. They are separate and distinct and have been disavowed by the BPP.

April 17, 201214 yr I feel obama is using race to help ensure he gets the black vote. President Obama (title and proper capitalization included) "strategizing" for the "black vote" once again shows your grasp of the current state of affairs as well as voting history.
April 18, 201214 yr [/font] How would you define his approach?? Swinging your way to equality instead of singing your way to equality. Be non-compromising be confrontational and turning the other cheek, while at the same time learn some knowledge of yourself and your history.
April 18, 201214 yr Author President Obama (title and proper capitalization included) "strategizing" for the "black vote" once again shows your grasp of the current state of affairs as well as voting history. I apologize, I should be respectful and say President Barack Hussein Obama is staging the black vote, funny how he never mentions any other black kids who get murdered as looking like his own.
April 18, 201214 yr I apologize, I should be respectful and say President Barack Hussein Obama is staging the black vote, funny how he never mentions any other black kids who get murdered as looking like his own. He could but so many are killed he'd never stop mentioning kids.
April 20, 201214 yr Author What a bunch of liberal hypocrites bashing Ted Nugent, where is the criticism of the Black Panthers from them. U.S. Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz, chairwoman of the Democratic National Convention, responded earlier this week, saying "threatening violence - or whatever it is that Nugent's threatening - is clearly beyond the pale." msnbc.com Entertainment - Secret Service: Issue with Ted Nugent has been resolved

April 20, 201214 yr Author You say this but I can't help but feel like you'd be outraged if 50 Cent or Jay-Z or any other rapper said something similar about George Bush getting re-elected back in 2004. The Dixie Chics did says some stuff about Pres. Bush. Didn't like them anyway, but those people can criticize all they want, but whepoliticians become hypocrites like that, then that upsets me. Besides, Nugent didn't put a bounty on Pres. B.H.O head like the black panter party did Zimmerman.
April 20, 201214 yr The Dixie Chics did says some stuff about Pres. Bush. Didn't like them anyway, but those people can criticize all they want, but whepoliticians become hypocrites like that, then that upsets me. Besides, Nugent didn't put a bounty on Pres. B.H.O head like the black panter party did Zimmerman. If Zimmerman was the POTUS then the New Black Panther would have been eradicated. He's just an ordinary citizen who doesn't have the luxury of having a Secret Service that is paid to protect him. The questions you have about why the New Black Panthers are allowed to put bounties on citizens are legitimate questions that maybe a policeman can shed light on as to why they have been allowed to do so. They definitely shouldn't be allowed to do that and I guess everyone is doing what I am trying to do.....ignore them and let them wallow in their insignificance.
April 20, 201214 yr Author In this day and time you can't ignore threats. Somebody may take them serious and do just what they asked, wanting their 10 min of glory. IMO it was a legit threat on TV and is being put on back burners because they are black. If the KKK or some Militia group said that, then it would be all over the news and arrest being made for hate crimes. There is a double standard being used in this case.
April 20, 201214 yr Honestly, using the "Black Panther Party" as a touchpoint of outrage is very, very ridiculous. That's on par with citing George Lincoln Rockwell as a voice for white folks in America. Bobby Seale doesn't even take them seriously.
