Enough Race Whining and Reverse Racism!

The race hustlers aren’t done.  Recently they’ve organized rallies around the country to protest the “injustice” perpetrated by our legal system, by acquitting Zimmerman. Now they are demanding federal action against Zimmerman – as a racial criminal.  And the always political Eric Holder appears to be surrendering to the hustlers’ demands. He has even established a Gestapo-like tip line to solicit racial evidence against Hispanic George Zimmerman. Could anything be more un-American than to ask citizens to snitch on one another?

Needless to say, this is an outrageous situation driven by Black racism and race hustlers. As tragic as the death of Trayvon Martin is, no crime was committed.  And the demands of the race hustlers are over the top – irrational – self-serving – and irresponsible.

Trayvon Martin picked a fight with a little, fat Hispanic with a gun.  Trayvon slugged George Zimmerman – knocking him to the ground – pounced on him – beat the hell out of him – and failed to back off when he had the chance.  Trayvon had four minutes prior to the confrontation to walk the one-minute distance to his father’s fiancé’s home where he was staying. Instead he chose to attack the undersized and seemingly defenseless neighborhood watchman.

Frankly – I don’t know about you – but I’ve had enough of this whining from too many Black Americans and reverse racism. This is certainly an unintended consequence of my youthful lobbying effort for racial equality.  The failure of Black leadership is atrocious as evidenced by the racist speakers at the recent NAACP convention.
