Elderly Couple In Fear Over Spike Lee Tweet- Star erroneously linked Floridians to man who killed Trayvon Martin
MARCH 27--With Twitter and Facebook continuing to explode with posts purporting to contain the address of George Zimmerman, property records and interviews reveal that the home is actually the longtime residence of a married Florida couple, both in their 70s, who have no connection to the man who killed Trayvon Martin and are now living in fear due to erroneous reports about their connection to the shooter.
The mass dissemination of the address on Edgewater Circle in Sanford--the Florida city where Martin was shot to death last month--took flight last Friday when director Spike Lee retweeted a tweet containing Zimmerman’s purported address to his 240,000 followers.
The left is LOOSING all the political credibility they thought they had with the Trayvon case. At first, it appeared that they had found a new messiah, someone who they could put on a pedestal and abuse as a symbol of the contrived rampant white on black crime and racism that permeates ever facet of our white dominated society. But with in days of the "I am Trayvon" campaign, the lefts narrative started to unravel. They had to use a a term that is rarely used in media or in the Latino community, a "white Hispanic." This is not an unknown designation, but it is also not commonly used. I was married to a Hispanic for 15 years, my brother was married to a Mexican for 26 years and neither of us had ever heard that term. And as quick Google search will show you, that except for the recent press on Zimmerman, that term is almost absent from the journalistic record.
Since the police were just wrapping up the investigation into the killing, there was not much public information on exactly what happened on that night. We had Zimmerman's account and a few neighbors who had information after the fact. So the left ran with the spotty first look account and built a case against Zimmerman and threw it at the public. Our national race-baiting national treasures Jackson and Sharpton jumped on the proverbial bandwagon and began beating the racism drums... and the media followed the beat and built a picture of a puppy-faced angel who looked like the male child that the Obama never had. Unfortunately that picture was 3-4 years old (and the media knew that) and showed Trayvon in a light that had nothing to do with his present look or demeanor. But it served it's purpose. Zimmerman just killed the boy-next-door.
And with in days the race-baiting-team whipped up a conference in Washington DC. How did they do that in under a week's time? You can't even find a taxi cab without preplanning in Washington... on a good day. Of course our President chimed in, fully ready willing and able to use this killing to his political "advantage". He asked us to search our souls, as if we all, inclusively, are tinged with racism, even if we don't know it ourselves (shades of Critical Race Theory).
But all this has now begun to unravel. The police released some of the information that they were submitting to the grand jury. It appears that much of Zimmerman's account has been verified by at least one eye witness. And transcripts of the 911 tapes reveal collaborating evidence as to the time line and sequence of the events. And further information about Trayvon (and this information actually being recent) shows that their messiah is a stained messiah, someone who doesn't look so very good on a pedestal.
None of these facts makes Zimmerman any more or less guilty of a possible crime. He may have overreacted, he may be in the least guilty of manslaughter and Trayvon death is tragic no matter how you look at it. And Zimmerman is going to have to live with this the rest of his life. The laws of Florida that allows this kind of self defense may have to be reconsidered. But try as they may, the left is loosing the manufactured narrative on this incident. It's not working out for them in the least, and over the last 36 hours, the race-baiters on the left have been very silent.
Maybe they have shut their divisive mouths for a while and we can get along with examining the real issues, such as black on black murders, true intentional racism and real racial violence and the true intentions of race-baiting politics.

The study by the Bureau of Justice Statistics also found that from 2001 to 2005, more than nine out of 10 black murder victims were killed by other blacks, and three out of four were slain with a gun. Blacks, who make up 13 percent of the population, were victims in 15 percent of nonfatal violent crimes.

This, after all your idiotic snark earlier. Hypocrite.
That was due to ignorance. It wasn't mean spirited, I didn't know the fire was that big at the time.
