First, we have Democratic Representative Bobby Rush wearing a hoodie on the House Floor purely for political theater. He ends up getting kicked off the House floor.
Second, Rep. Frederica Wilson *knows* that Trayvon was murdered. And she *knows* that he was racially profiled. Plus, she used an old out of date picture of him to portray him as being young, fragile, and innocent. Rep. Wilson states that "Trayvon Was Hunted Down Like A Dog, Shot Down In The Street." Here is the video of her on the House floor. How does Frederica Wilson *know* this? Was she there when this tragedy happened? Or is she relying on second hand information using supposition as declaratory fact when nothing has been proven? What about the investigation? Nah, she wanted want to wait for the facts to come out because that might contradict the narrative spun by the media and the Democrats race card politicization of this horrible tragedy.
Third, we have Rep. Hank Johnson saying that Trayvon was "Executed" For "Walking While Black In A Gated Community." Here is the video of Hank Johnson.
Was Hank Johnson there to witness the "execution" of Trayvon? How does he *know* that Trayvon was executed? How about we wait for the results of the investigation instead of making assumptions and thinking the worst of George Zimmerman and seeing the incident in the worst possible light?
Hmmm.... We seem to have a lot of Dems who think they're now the judge,the jury and the executioner. These people don't want justice. They want revenge. The Democrats politicization of this tragedy to advance their race-based agenda is disgusting. It doesn't look like they really want to find out the truth. The narrative spun by the media fits their agenda so why ruin that with the truth?

Heinous Shooting of Trayvon Martin: Self-Defense, Cold-Blooded Murder, or an Accident?
Before I go into my thoughts about the incident that transpired which culminated in Treyvon Martin's death I want to extend my heartfelt sympathy to his family. The whole situation is horrible. To lose one's life at such a young age is tragic.
Secondly, I am going to address the progressive race hustlers who are politicizing the tragic death of this teenage boy. Their central focus is on the fact that this happened to a black person, one of their own as Al Sharpton stated, but the racial aspect of this awful incident shouldn't be the main focus of their concern. The primary focus should be on the fact that a young human being's life was cut way too short due to a tragedy, one most likely preventable. Louis Farrakhan and the New Black Panthers are irresponsible to call for an all out race war, a new civil war. The New Black Panthers have even gone so far as to offer a bounty for the "capture" of George Zimmerman. Their calls to violence crosses the line into vigilantism. There is a big difference between advocating for justice and promoting vengeful actions. The race hustlers are adding more fuel to the fire and increasing the dissension among different ethnic or racial groups. Progressive commentators are maleficent to politicize this and their attempt to connect Republican politicians' positions on economic issues to this heinous crime is absurd.
My first reaction after hearing the two 911 recordings was a combination of outrage and sadness. Whether the slaying of this young teenage boy was an accident, murder, or self-defense I don't know. Two things seem self-evident; that Zimmerman was hyper-vigilant in his neighborhood watch duties, and that he refused to listen to the police when he chose to follow Trayvon. The police told Zimmerman to stop following Trayvon and were on their way to investigate the situation.
I am unsure whether this incident was caused by George Zimmerman having a preconceived stereotype or due to racism, or whether he would have been overly vigilant with any individual who in his mind looked to be engaging in suspicious behavior? Is there any evidence in Zimmerman's past to indicate that he had previously targeted blacks? In my opinion it is a high probability that this heinous act wouldn't have happened if George had just listened to the police, backed off and let the police handle the situation. Whether George was motivated by racism as well as whether this was cold-blooded murder, an accident, or an act of self-defense we don't know and is very much in question at this time.
After having read an article in the Orlando Sentinel it looks like there is more to this heinous incident then has been reported by the media. According to the article there is at least one eye witness who corroborates George Zimmerman's account of the events which occurred that fateful night. But the other side of the coin is the fact that Trayvon was not in possession of a gun or any other weapon, at least that we know of. The only two items in Trayvon's possession that night were a bag of skittles and a cell phone. Was there some type of scuffle between these two individuals? Between the corroborated account and listening to the second 911 call it seems very likely that a brawl happened between Zimmerman and Trayvon. But I honestly don't know whether a scuffle occurred or not. At the very least Zimmerman should have been arrested for disobeying a police officer's direct order.
I will repeat what I said at the beginning of this post. This is a tragic incident that ended with a teenage boy's death, far too soon. May justice be served. God rest Trayvon's soul.

Horror and Tragedy in Brooklyn: 7 Blocks to Walk; A Boy Ends Up Brutally Murdered
After attending summer day camp Leiby Kletzky, an 8 year old Orthodox Jewish boy, was supposed to meet his parents after walking 7 blocks. But he became disoriented and lost his way. This is so tragic....sniff....and he asked the suspect for directions. From what I've heard, the little boy was tied up, suffocated, and then the suspect chopped his body up. This little boy's body parts were found in the freezer and in a trash bin. What makes this horrific tragedy even worse is the suspect is a man from their own neighborhood and of the same background. This monster is also an Orthodox Jew. This is so sad. My heart goes out to this boy's parents and the whole community in Brooklyn. It is sad that in today's times kids can no longer walk on the streets alone safely.
Do you think that this is a case which calls for the death penalty? I do. Unfortunately I don't think that New York has the death penalty. Maybe that will change due to this horrific crime? Do you think that we need the death penalty as a deterrent to crime?
From CNN:
An 8-year-old's grisly murder would shock any community, but there's an added layer of astonishment in this neighborhood because the alleged killer appears to hail from the same close-knit religious community as the victim.
On Thursday, New York police charged a 35-year-old man with the killing of Leiby Kletzky, an Orthodox Jewish boy, after officers found human remains in the man's refrigerator and a trash bin.
The alleged killer also appears to be an Orthodox Jew who lived relatively nearby to Kletzky, according to community members.
"You can't possibly describe how tragic this is and how upset people are this boy was murdered by a person living in the community, who shares his religion and his neighborhood," said Ezra Friedlander, who lives in Borough Park, the neighborhood where Kletzky went missing on Monday.
On Thursday, Levi Aron was arraigned on first degree murder and kidnapping charges in Brooklyn in connection with Kletzky's death.
"It would have been extremely scary if a terrorist would have come into the community and killed a boy, but when it's one of your own you feel even more vulnerable," said Friedlander, a public relations executive who represents many Orthodox Jewish clients.
"The level of fear that mothers and fathers and children here are experiencing is something that I never witnessed before," he said. CONTINUED
