! It was in Fact a Long and Hard Fought Trial but I Hope That Justice Will Be Serve !

Imagine that you have a seventeen year old child, he left the house to go by snack for himself. On his way back and it was dark, he encountered a man following him and as most black kids do– he stated on his phone to his friend whom he was talking to, on his way back to his house——(probably) “some guy is following me” and probably stated even further that ” why u following me man” to George Zimmerman who followed him> Trayvon Martin on 2/26/2012—and at which time Zimmerman did not state who he was. A struggle ensued or took place from there and Trayvon ended up dead—–with a gun-shot wound pumped into his chest point blank range.

Now, Zimmerman was told by the police when he called them, not to follow Trayvon, he did not listen. He knew, by the  rules of the Housing Watch Team, that he was not supposed to have come out of his car and follow no one, he did. And has much as his neighbors were close he never called any of them for help or knock on any door for help. Zimmerman prejudged Trayvon because of other neighboring kids he could not get, for whatever reason. Zimmerman stated and complaint that his head was smashed into the concrete pavement.

Look at these two characters– who is bigger than who and who had some type of training for this type job and for this same reason. Zimmerman of course

Trayvon was going to be the example not to toy with him (Zimmerman).

Zimmerman used Trayvon, has a tool to send a message to the neighboring kids in the community. “I will not tolerate you in my Gated Community, keep out” and he took this seriously. Trayvon is dead because one man was hell bent on sending a msg. Zimmerman’s target was ripe for the picking; he was classically alone, had a hood on, was on his phone and not paying too keen of attention.

The bottom line is this,  Zimmerman saw his chance to do something and he took it. You see, Trayvon was not Trayvon, he was a menacing neighboring kids whom Zimmerman wanted for a very long time. The kid is dead–this is a fact.

 Remember Election September 10

For those of you who live in Laurelton Queens,  the 31st district; Michael Duncan needs your help. He has hit the ground running since the special election in Febuary via the last eight years and has not stop. He has been, since day one fighting for schools, for the protection of children, Seniors, housing, financing and a level playing field as well as a better community and way of life for all to live in.

The Cry Of A Nation

Are we hearing correctly?—-that our country-nation is not only AAA again, but that we are $117 million dollars in surplus. Have all the lies that Republicans tell, this  takes the cake. You mean to tell us that people are living in states where they can’t even get medical help; women are losing their health clinics; schools programs are being cuts and we are in a surplus range and the Republicans are crying wolf. If true, this is an outrage and must not be tolerated. Dems have to pore on the pressure and not letup.

By the way Immigration Reform is a done deal; congrats to the President.
