MSNBC host blames Bush for death of Trayvon Martin

No, not that Bush. The other one.

According to MSNBC’s Ed Schultz, “Jeb Bush helped pave the way for this senseless tragedy” because as governor, Bush signed a “stand your ground” law designed to allow someone to shoot an attacker when threatened.  “What a political tragedy.”

“It’s common sense to allow people to defend themselves,” Bush said when he signed the bill into law.

What’s truly a tragedy is how the political left and anti-gun zealots are using Martin’s death to advance their own political agendas…

At least the left and right sides of the aisle can agree on one thing: Geraldo Rivera is a dope.

    And the opportunist liberal race baiters go on…Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson, The Black Panthers and the liberal news organizations are trying to whip the country into a racial frenzy. Why now? This happened a month ago. The justice process has not been completed. Whatever happened, it is a tragedy all the way around.

    So Schultz won’t have any problem if I walk up to him with a baseball bat and demand his wallet. And then beat the crap out of him after he turns it over.

      I don’t remember Los Angeles Mayor, Tony Vilar (or Chief Bratton), being likewise accused by the MSM for the assassination of 17 year-old, black, high school; football player Jamiel Shaw Junior because of his illegal alien Sanctuary City policy. Nor do I remember candidate Barack Hussein Obama talking about how, if he had a son, the lad would look just like Jamiel Shaw Junior.

      For those of you unfamiliar with the name Jamiel Shaw Junior, I am not surprised. There were no theatrics after his assassination at the hands of an illegal alien 18th Street gangster when the high school football star was gunned down just yards from his front door. The assassin had just been released from jail the day before the murder instead of being deported because the Los Angeles mayor and police chief had a “don’t ask, don’t tell” Sanctuary City policy for illegal alien criminals.

      It was truly heartbreaking that Sgt. Shaw had to take an emergency leave from her second tour of duty in Iraq to come home to her husband and younger son to bury her 17 year-old. Al Sharpton and Company did not attend, nor did they demand justice for Jamiel Shaw Junior and an end to Sanctuary City policies that are killing more people than Florida’s “stand your ground” law ever could. Just ask Cheryl Green’s mother. Cheryl was 14 when she was assassinated by another illegal alien gangster.

You dont know till your in that situation. If I was having the crap bit out of me and I thought I was going to die and all I could reach was a gun. Yes. I probally would have shot too. I guess Zimmerman should of thought before shooting and said “Hey,your black I better not shoot you because this might cause a uprising among blacks and whites. Why does it seem blacks have more or an issue these days about color than whites?

    What if Schultz had his mother or grandmother gang raped by those blacks his loves so much!

    South Africa has some of the highest incidences of child and baby rape in the world committed by OUTSTANDING BLACK AFRICAN MALES.

    More than 67,000 cases of rape and sexual assaults against children were reported in 2000 in South Africa, compared to 37,500 in 1998. Some cite a 400% increase in sexual violence against children in the decade preceding 2002.

    A third of the cases are committed by a family member or close relative.

    Child welfare groups believe that the number of unreported incidents could be up to 10 times that number. The largest increase in attacks was against children under seven.

      I’m an anti abortion person through and through, so as bad as this sounds, when you hear these people talk sometimes today like Schultzie and REALLY THINK about it, you start wondering if them aborting most of their spawn by their own volition as they’ve elected to do isn’t such a bad idea after all…

      At least these couple generations of late God help em… jsut think if those 55 million liberals weren’t aborted, they’d be running us ALL over like a Billion Barney/Mack Daddy March coast to coast!!!

Is the law that Florida enacted to blame, or perhaps one out of control person, that needs to be investigated…Now all the race pimps, Jessie, Al, etc. are all out to suck up publicity, and want to blame Bush, blame everybody, everybody hates blacks………makes me sick…….could they not think of the poor greiving family without having to fly in to make an apperance to “stand up”!

    If you see someone trying to break-in your home, car or trying to kill your family. You do have the right to kill that person! No one is debating that! Lets use common sense when we talk about mistakes like this. If someone passes by your home they are not threatening you. If you decide to follow that person because you have a gun, now, you are commiting a threatening act. Geraldo is wrong about the hoodie even though crimminals use it in crime. Gun owners need to use common sense when pulling their weapons.

Are you allowed to defend yourself then? Especially if you are around 5’2″ tall and the “poor innocent kid” is well over 6′?

      Remember Crown Heights or Tawana Brawley? Heard of AL SHARPTON.

      Crown Heights Riots 1991: Accident, 1. Jewish driver kills black boy, injures black girl.
      2. Jewish ambulance comes and is told by police to take away Jewish driver before he’s killed by blacks that were beating him.
      3. State EMS arrives and works on black children.
      4. Blacks angry that their STATE HEALTH CARE isn’t as good as JEWISH PRIVATE HEALTH CARE.
      5. — 2 HOURS LATER – Blacks stab to death innocent Jewish man in front of his son (check out Ari L. Goldman- Crown Heights:Telling It Like It Wasn’t http://www.thejewishweek.com/news/new_york/telling_it_it_wasnt )
      6. THEN AL SHARPTON SHOWS UP ON HIS WHITE …..OOOPS BLACK HORSE……
      ——————————-

      The following is info. from http://www.ruthfullyyours.com/2011/08/16/the-crown-heights-riot-20-years-ago-this-week-the-true-story-thats-never-told/

      During the Trial—
      “Then we had a famous man, Al Sharpton, who came down, and he said Tuesday night, kill the Jews, two times. I heard him, and he started to lead a charge across the street to Utica.”— quote from sworn testimony of Efraim Lipkind

      ..in leading two anti-Semitic pogroms that gave SHARPTON the expertise he needed to be an adviser to the first “post-racial “President, Barack Obama and the latest evening anchor for MSNBC. SHARPTON’S rise to respectability proves how little has been learned from the Crown Heights anti-Jewish violence which took place

    A week ago, another “teen” (who is actually 20 years old) broke into their home and attacked the elderly and ill couple.

    Tyrone Woodfork raped and killed the 85 year old lady. He left her 90 year old husband for dead, but he survived.

    Curiously, the national media did not report on this killing. And, unlike the Zimmerman shooting, they did not mention race.
