Intellectual Exercise – Reverse the Races.    Think about what the headlines would look like if a group of white teens dragged a black couple from their car while shouting “die nigger”, “get that black whore”… and beat the man and his wife mercilessly….. THAT would be national headlines on all major media 24/7, Sharpton and Jackson would be quick to the scene, and CNN would be calling again for that national conversation.   Yet a group of black thugs do it, yet again, and it’s merely a local story buried from sight.

NEW YORK –  A group of 10 black youths — one of them a 12-year-old girl — surrounded a  white couple’s car in Brooklyn, viciously beating the husband and yanking the  wife to the pavement by her hair as they peppered the two with racial slurs,  authorities said.

“Get those crackers!” some of them screamed,  according to court papers. “Get that white whore!”

The confrontation erupted about 7 p.m. Monday, as the marauding group crossed  Avenue U at E. 58th St. near Kings Plaza Shopping Center in Mill Basin.

Ronald Russo, 30, and his wife, Alanna, apparently had the green light and  the husband honked at the group to get out of the way. The rowdy kids started  kicking the car, according to the criminal complaint. Ronald Russo got out to  check on potential damage to his vehicle.

And that’s when all hell broke loose. (more…)

Trayvon’s Foundation:  Following the Paper Trail

(A Guest Post By Treeper: Big Jim)

Not long after George Zimmerman shot and killed Trayvon Martin in self-defense, Trayvon’s family created a charitable, tax-exempt organization, the Justice for Trayvon Martin Foundation, Inc.
Given the volume of smaller donations that have been generated during the public appearances of Trayvon’s parents, and that some larger organizational donations have been received by the Foundation, I wanted to find out how much money had flowed into and out of the Foundation.
In order to find the money I needed to follow the paper trail, and as you will see below, in following the paper trail I ran into a few surprises.
For a tax-exempt organization the paper trail starts with its incorporation.  In order for an organization to have tax-exempt status (a “501(c)(3)” organization) it must comply with Internal Revenue Service regulations. (more…)

On the weekend before Miriam Carey crashed her car through barricades in front of the White House and was shot to death, her sister, Valarie Carey, on behalf of 5Linx, was in Orlando and gave a check for $54,000 to the Trayvon Martin Foundation.
But there’s an even more odd twist, which we’ll begin to outline after this story:
(Via Gateway Pundit) Miriam Carey confused America last week when she inexplicably rammed her car into the White House security gate, then sped away.  It was later discovered the 34 year old woman with her young toddler in the car was most likely suffering from postpartum depression and mental illness.  Miriam Carey was unarmed, but the police gunned her down, anyway.  She was surrounded by police, in her stopped car, with a child inside.
Now, Miriam Carey’s five sisters, one of which is an NYPD police officer, want answers.
According to WorldNetDaily,

The sisters of a Connecticut woman shot and killed by police in Washington, D.C., a week ago say they have many unanswered questions, including why officers chose to draw their guns and point them at a woman who may, at that point, have done no more than make bad driving decisions. (more…)

There are 3 Zimmerspects we are still engaged upon.   1.)  The malicious firing of Ben Kruidbos [pronounced like “cried boss”].   2.)  The internal fraud within the 4th SAO; and 3.) The specific and intentional manipulation of evidence through prosecutorial misconduct within the George Zimmerman case.   The latter two will outline the risk within the first.
…. and, oh yeah, she knows this.
ORLANDO, FL – Lawyers for State Attorney Angela Corey say she has “sovereign immunity” and are asking a judge to throw out a lawsuit filed against her in the George Zimmerman/Trayvon Martin case.
Ben Kruidbos, her former information technology director, was fired in June after he testified that prosecutors did not turn over all information to Zimmerman’s defense team in the shooting death of the 17-year-old. Kruidbos said he was a whistleblower and under the law cannot be fired.
The lawsuit says Kruidbos testified in response to a subpoena, and the firing was retaliation for his testimony. (more…)

Holder: Trayvon Martin investigation is 'ongoing'

— AJAM Live (@ajamlive) September 30, 2013

There are few, if any, positive aspects to the national spotlight and attention surrounding the George Zimmerman case.   A review of mandatory minimum sentences could be one of those outcomes. 
A new trial announced today in the case of Marissa Alexander.   Spotlighting a prosecutorial charge put upon by Angela Corey, the 4th District State Attorney’s Office in Jacksonville Florida; and a mandatory 20 year minimum sentence imposed by the judge after conviction.
The case is controversial, not so much for the conviction, but more for the sentence.

Under Florida’s mandatory minimum sentencing guidelines Marissa Alexander was sentenced to TWENTY years in prison for firing a warning shot in her kitchen when her husband was confronting her.   They had a troubled, at times violent, history together.
Good construction of the factual backstory HERE. 
There are two sides to every story, and in this case the actual conviction –based on the evidence– as found by a jury, was correct.   However, the sentencing was excessive based on the actual event.  A sentence structured around a charge, and mandatory 10-20-life guideline when a firearm is used in the commission of a charged and convicted  felony. 
[excerpt from MSN News]  …  The 1st District Court of Appeal in Tallahassee said in Thursday’s ruling that the trial judge made a “fundamental error” when he instructed the jury that Alexander was required to prove self-defense beyond a reasonable doubt. (more…)

The slow motion *public* train wreck continues.   Shellie Zimmerman and her attorney Kelly Sims sit down with Ryan Julison’s pal, Matt Lauer.  
D’oh….  
…And Sims, good grief….. look at the noggin’ on that Sims fellow and tell me he’s not trying out for a part in Alien Nation, the TV series.
(New York Daily News) Shellie Zimmerman, 26, told NBC’s ‘Today’ she is conflicted about what happened the night her controversial husband fatally shot the unarmed 17-year-old. Her doubts surfaced after an explosive domestic violence incident at a family home in Florida, she said. But she stopped short of claiming Martin was a victim of racial profiling.

The estranged wife of George Zimmerman said that since the couple’s spat at a family home in Florida she now has doubts about her husband’s innocence for killing Trayvon Martin.
Shellie Zimmerman, speaking publicly for the first time since she told cops her husband threatened her with a gun on Sept. 9, told NBC’s ‘Today’ that the man she loved changed dramatically after he was acquitted for the murder of the unarmed 17-year-old.
“This person that I’m married to, that I’m divorcing, I’ve kind of realized now that I don’t know him,” she told Matt Lauer on Thursday. “And I really don’t know what he’s capable of.” (more…)

Gee, I wonder why you never heard of this race-based mass shooting incident in North Carolina, which took place while the trial of George Zimmerman was ongoing ?   Hmmm… couldn’t possibly be because the media hold any disposition toward not spotlighting race-based spree shootings when the black attacker specifically asserts his chosen targets were white people. No, wait…
GREENVILLE, N.C. (AP) — A man who shot four people near a Greenville Wal-Mart in June picked out his victims because they were white, according to several indictments handed down against him.

Lakim Faust had more than 100 rounds of ammunition when he started shooting at people at a law firm and a shopping center in June, authorities said.
A grand jury indicted Faust on 14 charges Monday, including four counts of attempted first-degree murder.
Faust, who is black, picked out his victims based on their race, according to the indictments. The documents didn’t specify why Faust wanted to shoot white people, and police have not talked about why he picked out his targets. (more…)

The Supreme Court, responding to numerous lawsuits brought about by harmed citizens, has affirmed -at the behest of all law enforcement communities- that the police have no “affirmative duty -or- responsibility” to protect any individual citizen from harm.
Quite simply, Law Enforcement is only statutorily bound to enforce laws; and/or respond to violations of law *after* an incident has occurred.
The absence of an affirmative duty to intervene prior to criminal conduct gives rise to the common concept of self defense.
It is our right to self-protection, in conjunction with our right to form associative arrangements, which gives rise to our right to form internal security agencies such as the police.
This is an essential part of the social contract with law enforcement.
However, contained within that right is the right to oversight of those agencies, and the right to alter or abolish them if they become destructive or oppressive.
This oversight is just as central, if not more so, as the establishment itself.
A fundamental unwavering principle behind the construct of internal security agencies which we create, permit and accept, is the duty to oversee such agencies within the formation of our Constitutional Republic.

Apparently interest exists into our records requests….
OCALA, Fla., September 19, 2013 — The  Conservative Tree House, a political blog which detailedly reported on the  Trayvon Martin shooting’s aftermath, is now due to receive documents specified  in a Freedom of Information Act Request.
These documents pertain to how the office of Florida State Attorney  Angela Corey and her team handled the prosecution of George Zimmerman. Last  week, The Jacksonville Times-Union revealed that Corey is under state  investigation for allegedly illegal actions in firing her office’s information  technology director, Ben Kruidbos.  (continue reading)
