FLASHBACK – On October 6, 1988, the Abrams Grand Jury released its extensive and thorough 170 page report concluding that Tawana Brawley (“Brawley”) had not been abducted, assaulted, raped and sodomized as had been claimed by Brawley and her advisors.

The report further concluded that the “unsworn public allegations against Dutchess County Assistant District Attorney Steven Pagones” were false and had no basis in fact. To issue the report, the Grand Jury heard from 180 witnesses, saw 250 exhibits and recorded over 6,000 pages of testimony. (more…)

Giffords 2.0?  Of course he does.   And thankfully the water-carrying media will continue selling the Republicans politicizing the story and stuff….
(CBS News) — Vice President Joe Biden said Florida’s “Stand Your Ground” gun laws will be a topic of debate in light of the controversy surrounding the shooting of Trayvon Martin.

“It’s important that people be put in a position where their Second Amendment rights are protected, but that they also don’t, as a consequence of the laws, unintendedly put themselves in harm’s way,” Biden told anchor Bob Schieffer in an interview to air on “Face the Nation” on Sunday. (more…)

Sometimes I question intelligence.  Not yours, but the intelligence of the Pravdaesque media.   Do they really think we are that naive?  Skip that, it’s rhetorical. 
In a recap of the stupidest “analysis” I have ever heard about a story, here is some of the most insufferably ridiculous pretzel logic analysis sold by CNN and FOX today as professional.  We begin with CNN:
On CNN anchor Don Lemon’s commentary today – he hosted several segments about Trayvon Martin and “expert analysis” of the story.
In one segment his expert said that Trayvon was treated by paramedics on the scene for 8 minutes and declared dead. Subsequently she concludes by looking at the arrival time of George Zimmerman to the police station, minus the travel time there, Zimmerman could only have been medically treated by EMS for a total of 7 minutes.
This flawed, cognitively dissonant and pretzel logic analysis, went on for over 15 minutes.
REALLY?   Ever heard of treating two victims at the same time?  Ever heard of two different EMS units being dispatched simultaneously?  Perhaps the Fire Dept paramedics and also an Ambulance (Emergency Medical Service)?    DUH!! (more…)

This is a prime example of why our founders did not establish a “Democracy” as our form of governance (more after article).  The actual facts are not yet even known in the Trayvon Martin case, and the insufferable progs move to pass legislation in response.
(The Hill) — In the wake of the slaying of Florida teenager Trayvon Martin, House Democrats are drafting legislation designed to prevent similar tragedies in the future.

The lawmakers want to adopt tougher rules for neighborhood watch programs, eliminate certain state gun laws, rein in racial profiling and require an examination of racial disparities nationwide. (more…)

There is nothing yet reported by the Trayvon family, the media, or the vast contingent of parasitic self-absorbed parties seeking to take advantage of the situation, that dispute the statement, or account of George Zimmerman.  NOTHING.  Despite their earnest efforts at manipulating the media, and presenting a counter -perhaps intentionally false- narrative, the original account of the events provided by Mr. Zimmerman still stands solid. 
TAMPA — One of George Zimmerman’s neighbors is speaking out, saying looks can be deceiving.  Despite booking video from the Sanford Police Department that many say shows George Zimmerman largely unscathed from his encounter with Trayvon Martin, the neighbor said he saw Zimmerman with obvious injuries.
The neighbor is talking for the first time about what he saw on George Zimmerman’s face less than 24-hours after Zimmerman shot and killed Trayvon Martin.
“I saw George. He was banged up. His head had two big bandages, that weren’t flat, had a bump on them,” the neighbor, who did not want to be identified, said. (more…)

Never letting a good crisis go to waste.  Chuck Schumer and the opportunistic left-wing seek gun controls, and review of defense law.  Oh, SURPRISE.
WASHINGTON – New York Sen. Chuck Schumer is calling for hearings into Florida’s controversial “Stand Your Ground” law in the wake of the killing of teenager Trayvon Martin.

Appearing on CBS’s “Face the Nation” Sunday, the Democratic senator argued that the law, which empowers a person to use deadly force when he or she is under serious threat, impeded investigations into killings like Martin’s. George Zimmerman, a neighborhood watchman who shot Martin, has held that he’s protected under the law.
“I think we should examine this law,” Schumer said.  (read more)

First ABC began backing down.  Now, less than 24 hours later it’s NBC’s turn.  In two stories, both attached to the Trayvon Martin Case, NBC needs to walk back from their prior reporting:
In the first story NBC is forced to admit that George Zimmerman DID actually have a severe cut and swelling on his head consistent with his statements to police.   The stolen and leaked ABC tape was selectively and intentionally manipulated.
MSNBC Admits Zimmerman had head injury. (more…)

A soup to nuts deconstruction of the lies and obfuscations by the media in the Trayvon Martin case. Along with what verified fact based information we can gather.
Every Day The media looks more and more insufferably inept.
Throughout the past week more new facts surrounding Trayvon Martin have been discovered thanks to the New Media doing the work the Institutional Lame Stream Legacy Media intentionally refuses to do. Simultaneously we discover how many lies and falsehoods are continuing. Yesterday’s updates include:

• Tea & Skittles – What does that mean exactly and where did that story originate?
• Did anyone bother to check how far to the nearest convenience store or 7-11.?   Not the Legacy Media that’s for sure.
• It’s NBC’s turn trying to figure out who is manipulating their newsroom and why?  *Nudge, nudge…. wink, wink…

In short. This is perhaps the biggest national racial event since Rodney King. It is also shaping up to be the biggest media driven false public story since Richard Jewell. It’s in the process of becoming a watershed event; And, as more facts surface, it continues to look almost entirely fake. It’s a tempest in a teacup.
The whole thing is an institutionally media-generated racialist/socialist psycho-political agitator’s dream come true.
Today we will update and continue to outline and contrast the false narrative sold by the Legacy media types, TV, Print and Radio including: ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, FOX, CNN, PBS, Associated Press, Reuters Media, USA Today, New York Times and other like-minded affiliates.
For the sake of these continuing posts we are going to focus entirely on Trayvon Martin and not the infinite various nuances and side stories spinning out of the false narrative. I apologize for the length, but accuracy matters and context is needed.

SUMMARY of Content: In summary we now know that Trayvon Martin was not the innocent 17-year-old (junior year) High School kid portrayed by the media as: a football player, a volunteer mentor, a math loving student, and loving respectful child, who was serving a five day ten day suspension for tardiness. This was, and is, a complete fabrication. The truth is divergent in the extreme. (more…)
