He was deliberately trying to fan racial animosity. Plain and simple!! So now, they (the left, esp. Eric Holder and Jesse Jackson) want to eliminate our right to self defense. Afterall, stand your ground, wasn't used in this trial, so what they really want to do is stop our right to self defense under the guise of stand your ground. the right to self defense is fundamental to this country...but the liberals on the left don't really care about that. They want to fundamentally change this country, but eliminating its fundamentals.

If the Martin boy would have been white, Zimmerman would have been toast. Now the "Race Hustlers" will have their day again! They are just as bad as the White Supremacists as both groups give in to blind hatred and contribute nothing to unity of people for peace.Beverly Hills Publishinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13999946327694919059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4560465072711180606.post-64904060167356286152013-07-22T12:53:10.591-07:002013-07-22T12:53:10.591-07:00Mr. Horn happens to be a religious man who would n...Mr. Horn happens to be a religious man who would never celebrate the premature death of any person, regardless of race, sexual preference, or any other criterion. I read no joy in his words. You, Mr. Wilson, seem to be a thoughtful and well spoken man, and you express yourself respectfully. However, you do not challenge Mr. Horn's thinking. You impeach his character. I would suggest, sir, that you have no grounds on which to do so other than false assumptions which I fear are based on Mr. Horn being a white Conservative. If my assumption is wrong, I retract it and reaffirm that you have no basis on which to impeach his character. If I am correct, shame on you. The sword of bigotry cuts both ways.iRabbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04550697085289562399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4560465072711180606.post-90303757481899599192013-07-20T15:55:41.288-07:002013-07-20T15:55:41.288-07:00Mr. Horn: Who (other than yourself) appointed you ...Mr. Horn: Who (other than yourself) appointed you to be qualified to comment on what is best for the African American community? What specific connection do you have to that community? Have you worked on their behalf in order to improve the conditions in which they reside on a daily basis? Other than providing some quotes from some extreme right-wing (and mostly failed) politicians, what qualifies you to speak on this subject? The politicians you quoted have a very limited constituency in the African American community, because, unlike you, the African American community understands what is in their own best interests. The vast majority of that community has repeatedly rejected those for whom you speak so fondly.<br />I ask you, where were you when your hero Ronald Reagan was riding roughshod over the Constitution during the Iran Contra affair? Were you speaking out as vehemently then as you do now? And where were you, again, when your hero Reagan was manifesting his mean-spiritedness at the very beginning of his 1980 presidential campaign in Philadelphia, Mississippi, where less than twenty years earlier three civil rights activists (two Jews and an African American) were murdered simply for exercising their right to peacefully assemble?<br />Yes, some of today’s true leaders of the African American community have had their individual failings. However, they continue to have significant support in the community, whereas those you quote have little to no influence. I for one will continue to support those, such as our current President and our current Attorney General, who have demonstrated not only in words but in actions and worked to better the conditions of the African American community.<br />Mr. Horn, I respectfully ask you to eliminate your desire to politicize what I sincerely believe both you and I can agree was a tragedy in the death of Travyon Martin. Although I disagree with the decision of the jury, I respect its ultimate conclusion. I ask you to have the common decency to understand the hurt his family is feeling at this time. What type of commentator are you who seems to obtain joy in writing that Travyon was like many of today’s teenagers in that he did some things which he should not have been doing<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16826594535627887243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4560465072711180606.post-7990591261246361292013-07-20T00:17:27.091-07:002013-07-20T00:17:27.091-07:00As always, you have expressed yourself very well. ...As always, you have expressed yourself very well.
