Wading Through The Cesspool Of Journalistic Malpractice – Research Help Request

Kevin CunninghamBUMPED – As a direct result of the ABC video manipulation story on Zimmerman we rec’d a tip to dig a little deeper and aim the Looking Glass toward: Matt Gutman, Candace Smith, Kevin Cunningham, Jess Kutch and Howard University.    (Within complex corrupt systems often there will be a few people uncomfortable with the “illicit agendas'” surrounding them – such is the case with the aforementioned tip).

So if we grab our Looking Glass, stand atop an April 2nd Daily Caller Piece guest authored by Chuck Rudd, and look around, what will we find?    Let’s go look: (more…)

Black Skin Privilege – By David Horowitz and John Perazzo

In a free society, composed of individuals who are unequal by nature, the highest government good is neutrality in the treatment of its citizens before the law. One standard and one justice for all. This is the only equality that not at odds with individual freedom. It is the only equality that can make a diverse community one. A nation that respects individual rights and protects individual freedom cannot be sustained if there is one standard for black and another for white; one for rich and another for poor. It can only be sustained by a single standard — one law and one justice for all. – David Horowitz & John Perazzo

Members of the New York City Council wear "hoodie" sweatshirts as they stand together on the steps of City Hall in New York to call for justice in case of killing of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in Florida

(FrontPage) When a Neighborhood Watch guard shot Trayvon Martin in February 2012, a chorus of civil rights activists concluded that he had been killed because of his race. Michael Skolnick, the political director for hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons, spoke for the consensus in an article he titled, “White People You Will Never Look Suspicious.”

I will never look suspicious to you. Even if I have a black hoodie, a pair of jeans and white sneakers on … I will never watch a taxicab pass me by to pick someone else up. I will never witness someone clutch their purse tightly against their body as they walk by me. I won’t have to worry about a police car following me for two miles, so they can ‘“run my plates.”’ I will never have to pay before I eat. And I certainly will never get “‘stopped and frisked.”’ I will never look suspicious to you, because of one thing and one thing only. The color of my skin. I am white…. (more…)

GZ Court Docs – State Response to Motions and Defense Reply

george-zimmerman-2nd-bond-hearing-1-0629Four current motions appear in preparation for Tomorrow’s hearing in the George Zimmerman case.   Two responses from the State in response to defense filings, and two replies from the defense pertaining to those responses:

First the initial response from the StateStates Response to Defendant Motion For Third Party Disclosures/Evidence –  This in essence is the States reply to Zimmerman’s request for information about the Benjamin Crump interviews with DeeDee (Witness 8) and his possession of the recordings therein.

Bottom line – The State is “now” complying with previous request.

The reply from the defense team:  Mr. Zimmerman Reply to Compel therewit –  This in essence is the defense team saying nothing is actually complied with until they are in possession of the full un-edited version provided to the State along with the accompanying documented Chain of Custody.

Bottom Line – Not only does the defense want the information, but the documentation to review the timeline and handling of the original request. (more…)
