Black Conservatives and the Zimmerman Case

Last paragraph of the OP is a good one:

It is unfortunate that so many prominent Black Conservatives seem unwilling to speak out against racism, because by not doing so they are not only poor representatives for Blacks, but are poor preachers for Conservatism as well, because Conservatism is the antithesis of racism. As Ayn Rand says, “Racism is the lowest, most crudely primitive form of collectivism. It is the notion of ascribing moral, social or political significance to a man’s genetic lineage—the notion that a man’s intellectual and characterological traits are produced and transmitted by his internal body chemistry. Which means, in practice, that a man is to be judged, not by his own character and actions, but by the characters and actions of a collective of ancestors.”

Game, set, and match. I doubt the Leftist apologists have any excuse now.

Overruled. It aint over until the fat lady sings.
 
Is the left starting to see that there won't be a federal prosecution in the Zimmerman case and are trying to blame black conservatives for it?
