George Zimmerman’s Father Says The ‘True Racists’ Are African-American [View all]
Source: Think Progress
As the murder trial for George Zimmerman begins, his father has released an emotional and highly unusual e-book, publicly opining on all aspects of the case. The book by Robert Zimmerman Sr., called “Florida v. Zimmerman: Uncovering the Malicious Prosecution of my Son, George†was released today on Amazon for $3.99.
The most striking chapter is called “Who Are The True Racists,†an apparent effort to rebut claims that his son’s actions were racially motivated.
Previously, Zimmerman Sr. “believed generally racism was a thing of the past.†He says that, personally, he hadn’t encountered much racism, even though his wife is Hispanic. But after his son shot and killed Trayvon Martin, however, Zimmerman learned that racism is “flourishing at the insistence of some in the African American Community.â€

57. There is no question that Zimmerman IS a killer
that's a fact.
That he's a ****ing murderer is my opinion.
How about self defense?

11. any Floridian who ever thought racism was a thing of the past
is an idiot or a liar or both. As for African American racists; I've encountered hundreds if not thousands of racists and they've all been white. Might be a hypothetical possibility for one to be black but sure no empirical reality in my half century of observation. (As a white member of a biracial family.)
I have seen many White liberals who are racist. Hell, the most racist people I have encountered are liberals as they are often angry and bitter. Dangerous mix.

33. As for African American racists
If any exist, it's a defense mechanism. If you get kicked in the nut by people in blue shoes frequently, innocent people in blue shoes make you nervous.
As a parent, I can feel for Zimmerman (sr) wanting to protect his son. As a thinking member of the human race, I wonder about his sanity. Thats like trying to relieve the itch of pubic lice with a grenade.
Racism is racism regardless of color. :mental:

The race peddling, race baiting, race scamming, race card playing, race extortionists are not only racist, but are expert at fanning the flames racism by all races. People like Shartpeton, Jackson, Wright et al.

Ask a few Asians what they think about your notion.

It's all you white peeples fault.

Some of the most virulent racism I've ever seen came from American blacks.
I've also seen pretty bad racism on display from hispanics. Muslims are also usually prety bigoted as well in my experience.
There are white racists, but you won't see it in the professional ranks like with blacks and hispanics. It just isn't accepted.

The libs are so insulting to the black community. They act like they can't live without the gubm'ts help. They can't succeed without the gubm'ts help.
I would be pissed as hell if everyone else thought so highly of my race. Do they not see that they treat them like they are worthless? That they can't make it on their own merit? Does it bother them that the libs want to hand everything to them and not ask anything of them? That's so wrong.

As long as Big Daddy Gubmint gives them free stuff that used to be other people's, they don't care.

George Zimmerman's father is almost right. The "True Racists" are leftist blacks. Of course, it has been my experience that all leftists are racist.

You got that right. :hi5:

There was a thread in the past week, maybe it was copied to here...but I don't recall...that the DUmmies debated whether Zimmerman was actually Hispanic. Ya' know, with the "Jew" name and all. Their terms, not mine.

Apparently none of these idiots have worked in the federal government if they don't believe in black racism. Dumb asses. Gina, I think it's more insidious. Some of the more opportunistic among us--white and black--know all to well black racism will be given a pass and those individuals play both sides of the fence. I've even been a party to low information voters come right out and say they've never been treated with racial hostility but if the...'crackas is gonna give it up, I will make sure to use whatever I can'. Plenty of blacks I've seen have learned how to use racism to their advantage both to cry they've been the recipient of it AND knowing they will get a pass if they are the ones doling it out. Liberals have basically created a culture where the minority plays by the rules of the majority they supposedly loathed 60 years earlier.

An even playing field is the only solution to racism.

What I've seen that becoming is the the 'once' oppressed become the oppressors.

Blacks who adhere to leftism are extremely racist, not only towards whites but towards hispanics and asians, heck they seem to have a problem with everyone even fellow blacks hence the high amount of crime they perpetrate in their own nieghborhoods. The time has come for blacks to look in the mirror when they're looking for someone to blame.

^Bill Cosby, up until recently has been making very similar statements. He was roundly ignored, until he started his muslim riff.

Well I dropped the $4. Will see what the man has to say.

I notice that too. Leftism encourages racism by feeling victimized and angry. It is an angry ideology that attracts angry people.

^And professional agitators, like owebuma, Sharpton, Jackson, Wright, Farrakan, and Malcolm the 10th.

I think it is time to de-stigmatize "racism" and begin the process of education about how racism should be accepted as natural and a valid part of human nature. It is time we give racist the same protection as every other group that cannot help being who they are.

I seen this between blacks of different skin tone. The names the darker ones use to describe the lighter ones would have made even Robert Byrd blush.

There was a study done several years ago that showed that racism is innate. Young toddlers of different races were put together and they tended to separate into groups based on their race.

I wouldn't agree with that conclusion. To me racism has to include hatred and or attitudes of racial superiority.

32. I wonder if it was conspired by the attorney for it to happen.
There are some attorneys that are corrupt.
Yep, 99% of lawyers give all the others a bad name.
Then I went to the original site and found this:
Congressional Black Caucus. “[A] pathetic, self-serving group of racists… advancing their purely racist agenda.” He later adds that “all members of Congress should be ashamed of the Congressional Black Caucus, as should be their constituents.” And finally: “They are truly a disgrace to all Americans.”
The NAACP. “Simply promotes racism and hatred for their own, primarily finical, interests” and “without prejudice and racial divide, the NAACP would simply cease to exist.”
NAACP President Benjamin Jealous. “[W]hat I would expect of a racist.”
Trayvon Martin’s funeral director. A “racial activist and former head of the local NAACP.”
Benjamin Crump, Natialie Jackson and Darrly Parks, attorneys for Travyon Martin’s family. “The scheme team.”
The National Basketball Players Association.
Black Chamber of Commerce.
National Association of Black Law Enforcement Officers.
National Black United Fund.
United Negro College Fund.
Replace black or negro with white and all of them would be on the SPL H8ers list. By definition, except the NBA, they tell you they are racist in the name.

The true racists are Jesse Jack(ass)son, Al (not so)Sharpton, Jeremiah (wrong)Wright, and every liberal who thinks playing the race card makes it an instant winner.

I would think racists think they are superior and hateful as Obumazombie points out.

Well I just finished Mr Zimmerman's book and it is pretty eye opening. Some of the things I got from it.....
GZ's father is white and mom is from Peru with a grandfather from Africa. IE no more white than the president is.
He grew up in a multi-racial household.
The restraining order that was taken out by the ex had a matching one from George to keep her away from him.
The lawyer that represented the AA homeless man that GZ advocated for after he was beaten by the son of a high ranking LEO and the NAACP refused to stand up for, was one of the first screaming racism.
GZ and his wife had mentored several minority children over the years.
On the night in question GZ was returning form grocery shopping, not on NW duty.
Wounds were pretty obvious on him as the recipient of the beating while St Trayvon had wounds only to his knuckles and the gunshot.
The entire Zimmerman family is in hiding and in fear for their lives.
The paternal Zimmerman pulled no strings to help his son not get charged. He was a magistrate in Virginia never in Florida. He had been retired for a few years prior to the incident.
The judge that ordered him back to jail stated that he had no ties to the county as one of the reasons for sending him back. That was false, his parents, wife and in-laws live there.
The charging documents are full of speculation not fact.
His charges against certain groups and individuals are stated pretty clear and the harm they have caused his family is indefensible.

Libs love to elicit death threats, and use threats of physical violence and force as a weapon against those whom they oppose.
