Glenn Beck's 'The Blaze' Smears Trayvon Martin -- TYT

YouTube Description:

Glenn Beck's website The Blaze is trying to paint Trayvon Martin as the aggressor, not George Zimmerman who shot the unarmed teen. The Blaze also brings up that Martin was suspended from school in an attempt to smear him. Ana Kasparian and Cenk Uygur break it down on The Young Turks.

Both left and right smear facts when its convenient and both side are smearing this story for all its worth.

I don't think all the facts are in. I don't know who is right or wrong. All I know is that sadly there is a grieving family who lost their son.

Hopefully ideology won't get in the way of facts.

Yeah, it's certainly a fact that an unarmed teenage boy of his size needed to be shot in the chest with a gun in order to be dealt with.

So many in fact that there's no reason to detain the non-black person at all. Yeah.

Quit your raciest rants. Just the guy is non black does not give anyone a free pass out of jail.

You don't know what happened so keep you shit to yourself.

Maybe the guy though he had a gun I don't know, you don't know and we don't know. Time will tell.

Being 1/2 the size don't mean jack. An 8 year old with a gun is just as deadly as a 17 or 35 year old.

So Bobknight, any civilian with a gun can stalk and kill anyone else, as long as they claim they saw a gun? This was ridiculous enough when uniformed cops did it. But now I can carry and get away with murder as long as I'm the only witness?

And what about Trevan's right to defend himself? Some strange, big, armed guy was stalking and chasing him; what would you tell your teenage son to do. Seems like the teenager had more to fear than this neighborhood watch clod.>> ^bobknight33:

Even if he did have a gun, the guy should still go straight to the station and be arrested. If he just THOUGHT he had a gun, then he should go there as well.

Zimmerman is racist. And so are the cops that did not arrest him immediately.

If by gun you mean skittles. Shitbird.

Apparently, people are posting on here without realizing that MANY facts about this case are released, due to the fact that NO ONE was EVER detained and arrested.

We have witnesses, facts released by the police and witnesses. We have a 911 audio call (that not only shows a fairly strong semi-racist mindset, but more importantly what got Martin killed: the voice of a paranoid vigilante looking for a fight) -- the call almost completely tells the story of what happened afterward if there was a scuffle at all. Zimmerman chased him down, pulled his gun, and did EVERYTHING the 911 dispatcher told him NOT to do. Martin on his phone call had already told his girlfriend that he thought he was being followed and that he was afraid -- with good reason. IF...IF, a fight did break out it was because Martin was terrified for his life and we now know that he was right to do so...

If you can't bother to listen to the facts that are already here then don't bother posting. There is GREAT reason why so many are angered by this incident. There is a reason why the police chief HAD TO step down. There is a reason the Feds are getting involved...

Step into reality and get off your Republican or racist high-horse; no those two are not the same thing, but it is awfully strange at which times these two decide to become bedfellows. This could be said for the police as well, but to be honest we don't know why they are going to such extremes to protect him (although the mayor is pissed the hell off; atleast in the last interview I saw with him, he didn't understand why Zimmerman wasn't arrested either -- this is probably why you saw the police chief step down...).

I'm glad atleast many on the Sift do stay caught up on these events if they decide to post (many on the Sift are fairly knowledgeable, with the trolling at a fairly low occurrence). But, much like Glenn Beck and his cronies it only requires a few or one bad apple(s) to create misinformation (just like Fox News) and then anger is created aimed in the opposite direction, yet based entirely on lies. But, that anger is just as potent and in my experience it turns into even more racism...

/My two cents and one cent on the house...

So Florida is the Wild West...as long as you're the only surviving witness? Just have to tell the cops it was self defense and you're free to go. Even if you deliberately stalk your target, lose him, continue searching, acquire him again, and finally engage him.

About the suspension, 10 days does seem pretty significant. Doubtful it was for murder, maybe a food fight? And only 1 suspension? Not that Zimmerman knew any of this ffs, so it seems kind of moot.

Ana is livid.
I think she's personally invested in the story.


We ALL should be "personally invested". No apology for mistaken intent can bring you back from the dead if another concerned citizen decides to pop a cap in your ass. This might happen to you. It almost happened to me.

When I was 14 back in the early 80s,I was hanging out with a friend around 4 in the morning in front of his apartment building. We were going fishing and his brother in law was supposed to pick us up. A pair of Big Guys call out to us from up the block,with a VERY Big Dog,and say something like,"What do you guys think you're doing out here?". WE see the guys,we see the dog,we look at each other and we ran inside the apartment building. We head up to his apartment and a few minutes later TWO COP CARS with lights flashing park outside and we hear people get out. We stay quiet and we hear a lot of footsteps walking up the stairs then back down again. Happily,they left and a half hour later we ride off with the brother in law. We weren't doing anything except talking and sitting on the porch,and the whole episode was scarey! I can just imagine how this poor kid felt when he sees Mr Vigilantte chasing him. And I imagine he knew people in authority really don't need a real reason to be nasty,especially to puny minorities.
Why this scumbag is still walking the streets? Who will be the next random victim?
