When are people going to learn that Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and their ilk don't want an end to racism, they thrive on it and without it they'd be ordinary citizens just like the rest of us. They're basking in the glory of advances won through the sacrifices of others and using every opportunity to keep the spotlight on themselves, often preying on the misery of others to get their own time in front of the cameras. And what of the President? True, he said we need to make judgements based on all the facts, but also just had to mention that if he had a son he'd be the same color as Trayvon Martin. Color may have played a roll in the tragedy of Trayvon's death but why speak of it in those terms by someone who is supposed to be the leader of us all? I've got three sons of my own, the youngest of whom were not so long ago Trayvon's age, so in them I see him and mourn his loss deep in my heart. I also have children the age of George Zimmerman (as could the President) and in them I see him, so wonder why this rush to judgement by so many people when we only have a few bits and pieces of information about what might have gone on when he shot Trayvon. I hear talk from all sides about wanting justice for Trayvon, we all do, but how many of those people want TRUE justice for George, even if it turns out this was all a tragic misunderstanding that got out of hand and not the cold blooded murder so many people seem to want it to be? I'm just sick of all this race bullshit, we need to move on, and even if it played a part in Trayvon's death can't we leave it there and not carry it into the way we deal with this? I see two sons here, American sons, my sons, your sons, and the President's sons, both of them the President's sons, not just the one who is his color or mine. Same for the two bozos who call themselves Reverends but don't revere anything but their own fame.
