You are an abject liar. Now you want to be a cracker. I wish you would make up your mind.

Talk is cheap. Prove it. link?

if it was just sunshine, you might have a point.

I recall the same thing.

back during your crusader rabbit days

Yeah, he came on doing his 'I'm one of the brothers and here's how it's going to be' routine.

He came in doing his troll routine. That's about all he's good for.

And he quickly consummated the long romance between himself and that vile po It.

What was Travon's crime? Being black and wearing a hoodie?

No,Snookie; since you ask, it was more like more like simple assault and battery, apparently; the problem was, the man he assaulted happened to be armed with a gun. It occurs to me, that if Trayvon felt so afraid/threatened/dissed, whatever, because Zimmerman was following him, he COULD have used his cellphone to call the police, instead of talking to his girfriend. Naaaw, I guess not; hell, that would have been too much like common sense, and we can't have THAT, not in your vision of America! I guess we could say that there were TWO people who took the law into their own hands that night; one died for the mistake, and your side wanted to lynch the other.

Just maybe, it might not be the best idea to celebrate or beatify EITHER of these two poster children for poor judgement, but...oh, snap! I forgot about the political need for martyrs, real or imagined; do carry on!

Symbolism is necessary.

Uh huh; but to who, and to what purpose? The problem with symbols is, they're in the eye of the beholder, and mean very different things to different people.

For instance, we see a lot of posts hereon Black crime and the reasons for it, and people here who are (or represent themselves as) Black, come across with talk like, "Yeah, I'm Black, and I'm BAAAAD! Follow me, you crack mother****, and I'll f***you up!" Empower yourself by acting thretening-it may be satisfying, but is that really the message you want to send? Well, IS IT? Then, if anyone reacts negatively to this message, well, "They're RACIST!" Then you glorify Trayvon Martin, and what other people see, is a thug-wannabe, with (by his own words) a racist attitude, and outrage from your side that someone who isn't Black had the audacity to defend himself from this "little angel" who was not quite the innocent, harmless little kid they media originally portrayed as a hapless "victim of a racist vigilante". Wanna know how that comes across? It comes across as, "Black people hate you, just for being, well, not Black, and so, they should be allowed to bully you, prey on you, and threaten you, without consequence to themselves; after all, you're not Black, so you deserve it, Cracka!"

Now, to a lot of us, if you're actually white, that comes across as self-serving pandering and/or misplaced guilt, at best, and if your'e Black, it's either faintly ridiculous posturing, at best, or downright menacing, at worst; you're either silly and annoying, or a threat to me and my loved ones. Either way, you're not my friend.That's bad enough, but the message you're sending to those young Black men who AREN'T thugs, is that there's nothing for them between acting like a punk, and acting like a groveling, subservient Uncle Tom. You're telling them that it's not only OK, it's good, and it's cool, to be a caricature, rather than just be a good man, and that's a damn lie.

So yeah, symbols say a lot; but you better be sure they're saying the right thing, not just whatever is expedient, or gives you a little visceral satisfaction at the moment.
