Rachel Jeantel's Language is English ? It's Just Not Your English

Last week, Don West, defense attorney in the George Zimmerman murder trial, asked friend of Trayvon Martin and case witness Rachel Jeantel a strange question. “Are you claiming in any way that you don’t understand English?” he inquired, though she had been answering his questions in fluent English throughout much of the previous day. Jeantel, who was born and raised in Miami, insisted that she did, but West wasn’t convinced. He asked her once more whether perhaps, because her first language was Creole (transmitted to her by her Haitian mother), she had any trouble understanding English.

I have to admit, I have a difficult time understanding the majority of Republicans. It's that "twang". How can you be white, live in this day and age with all the TV and still talk like that? Are the only shows they watch "Beverly Hillbillies, Dukes of Hazzard, Gomer Pyle and Petticoat Junction" in endless reruns?

Why is it strange to make sure a witness understands English?

Which Republicans have a twang?

Where does that picture mock Martin's friend?

He provided links to something, that makes him smarter than us right wingers according to his defenders.

Let me ask you a question do you understand Bostonians when they speak the english language,how about Brooklynites when they speak it.

This thread is a segue into the twilight zone. Trivial. Let's stay on topic, though. Don't side track people sidetracking. Let's ignore the high black crime rate. And particularly, the fact that Zimmerman's neighborhood was being targeted by black burglars. I understand that G.Z. fended off a home invasion by black youths in his neighborhood. Let's don't mention THAT. Let's don't mention the bigger threat to young black males: EACH OTHER. Not cops or paranoid whites with guns. And the fact T.M. affected a black gangbanger rapper wannabe persona. Let's talk, instead, about the presupposed racism of noticing the creole accent of a witness. Even Jimmy Carter accepts the Zimmerman verdict.

 

[jwoodie]

Let's also not forget that Martin committed aggravated assault, if not attempted murder, on Zimmerman.

I understand pretty much everyone who speaks English, even you.

"I think the jury made the right decision based in the evidence presented because the prosecution inadvertently set the standard so high that the jury had to be convinced that it was a deliberate act by Zimmerman and that he was not defending himself and so forth," he said. "It's not a moral question, it's a legal question and the American law requires that the jury listens to the evidence presented."

Asked if he thought Martin's killing and Zimmerman's case presented any broader issues of race, Carter said not necessarily, considering the prosecution didn't bring up any alleged racial motivation during the trial.

Carter said he agreed with President Barack Obama regarding the trial.

How you guys always try to twist shit into gold is a surprise. The prosecution didn't bring up any racial aspect because the judge wouldn't allow it.

So many "suspicous" black males. And that last one, skinny and short? Was seven fucking years old. That's right SEVEN.

Doesn't matter if it's Sandy Hook or Zimmerman or who they elect to congress, Republicans seem to want to support kooks and only kooks. They loooove the "brain damaged".

It can't be true about republicans loving the "brain damaged" because they don't seem to like you too much.

That seven year old 911 call states right in the report that he called because the 7 year old child was unsupervised and he was concerned for his well being. Some of those reports even had him describing white people and Hispanic people. It wasn't just black males? Weird! Now go run along you little rascal you.
