My Zimmerman Statement

People have been trying all weekend to engage me in to commenting on the outcome of the Zimmerman trial…..I have resisted as long as I could but the endless prying has brought me to this post.

This will be my one and only statement on the trial of Zimmerman and its verdict.

People let it go!  He was tried and found not guilty whether you agree or not that is how the system works here….maybe not as well as some of us would like but it is the rule and now it is over.

The tragedy of a 17 year old being shot for any reason is a horrible thing and very little can be said to defend it to anyone.  The sad part is this incident is the price we pay for allowing morons to carry guns legally.  The death of a loved one at the hands of self-styled vigilantes will continue and there will be more Trayvons out there….you may not hear much about them but they will be there.  And as long as we allow idiots who fancy their manhood in the carrying of a gun we will mourn for our dead.

The people can and should do something about this….it cannot be fixed in a year or maybe even 10…..but it can be fixed.  Do what you have to do to fix this outrageous law…….if you cannot do that then learn to live with…..MORONS WITH GUNS!

One last thing….we hear once again about a national conversation on race is needed……it has been needed for 50 years and there has been NO one that has the guts to start it.  Until we have this talk and be honest with each other there will ALWAYS Trayvons and Zimmermans…….

Get busy or SHUT UP!

Egyptian Restart?

While Americans were celebrating the signing of the Declaration of Independence the Egyptian people were declaring theirs, at least independence from the dictatorial approach of Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood……..if you have no idea of what a speak then I suggest you read a newspaper and let that mind numbing Honey Boo Boo die a natural death…….

Once the Egyptian army ceased power and put Morsi under protection the war hawks in Washington started thumping their chest……people like McCain who condemned the army for their action….basically he has come to support the Muslim Brotherhood…..think about that people!  McCain and the Muslim Brotherhood?

Let’s go back about 15 years and the Muslim Brotherhood was high on the terrorist list…….because of their extreme religious beliefs and their embracing of terrorism as a political weapon……so now let us ask…..what happen for that to change?  It appears that since they participated in the general elections in Egypt after the fall of Mubarak…they have become a democratic institution and in being so deserves the support of people like McCain…….

Now with that said….I want to ask…..why does Hamas not deserve recognition other than being on that same terrorist list that the Muslim Brotherhood use to reside?

Hamas is an organization that represents the people of Gaza and yes they were democratically elected to the posts…..so why are they not worthy of support?

Easy answer….ISRAEL!

The Jewish state is controlling the terrorist list and in doing so controlling the US Middle East foreign policy……..because the Brotherhood participated in the elections does not give them a free ride….there are many democratically elected leaders that we do not deal with for whatever reason…..but when it comes to the Middles East….it is Israel that will dictate what and who we are to support…..this is why Israel can get away with murder and I mean it in actual terms…….

The US will play NO significant role in the events taking place in the Middle East as long as our policies are driven for the benefit of Israel and no one else…..
