I was a guest on Crane Durham”s Nothing But The Truth show on July 15.
We covered a variety of topics related to the George Zimmerman verdict and the aftermath, including threats of federal prosecution and civil lawsuits.
One of the issues we discussed was the false racial narrative of the case perpetuated by the media, a topic we have dealt with frequently.

It is extremely discouraging to see the fanatical left continue in its unrelenting campaign to tear America apart. It is not rational not to believe that is what Obama and his hordes want.
Rick,
Please do not be discouraged rather recall that they fail at such behavior time and again. I remind you that part of life is suffering and it is our lot to suffer such fools.
I hope you are right, and I will do all I can to make you right, but I don’t share your optimism.
They failed in the 60’s they shall fail again. The backdrop of Detroit going belly up at same time the very same people are trying so hard to foment a race war is too funny to be sad.
The image of the big black fist that is in Detroit…..
They did the dry run of occupy picked a few losers and have been paying them to foment anger MAJOR FAIL.
Failure is all they know, what is important is we keep names of those who either caved or cow towed to.
Provide them no sanctuary and no career.
A recent poll (http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/lifestyle/general_lifestyle/july_2013/more_americans_view_blacks_as_racist_than_whites_hispanics) showed that the majority of Americans think blacks are more racist than whites. When broken down by respondents race, blacks were more likely to view blacks as racist than whites. Eric Holder’s witch hunt would only bolster this view. In fact, his witch hunt would make this administration look petty and overtly racist.
Perhaps it is just me but if anyone needs a survey to know this…….
The white left and self anointed blacks have done what they have done for decades, yawnnnnnn.
I don’t vote for this shyte they did to be blunt:
let it burn. I am not going to lift a finger or shed one tear while they implode upon themselves.
It is those who seek to abolish the Constitution that will
DEMAND her protections when what they have wished for goes pear shaped… I say the sound of CRICKETS upon them.
When are we going to be rid of jerks like Obama and Holder. I could say most of Obama’s appointees as well. Not all but mostly black. Guess you could say I’m racist. 🙂
Never, there will always be trials and tribulations.
The question is who are you and what do you do.
There are times when feeding rope is proper response
and there are times for getting a pony and a tree.
This is a keep feeding them the rope time for those who haven’t had their first cuppa yet 😉
and isn’t it creepy how almost all of the obambi white women are lesbos or married to some former 60’s wannabe radical? They are clowns every single one of them.
They hide behind existing laws or invent new laws to hide behind and try to foment nitwit blacks to rumble.
Such cowards America have never seen, hell the Brits had the balls to face colonials eye to eye.
your last sentence echo’s fear i think we Americans have at this moment in time . Britain is gone . No more people with morals to defend her greatest from the Moo-lisms . The Muslims just had a man arrested for flying the ‘Union Jack’. The Queen herself just gave ‘Homosexual Marriage’ the OK !!
Most Americans are fed-up with toeing this line of our prez. As Brits can no longer fight for there country , we do not want to be next ! rant over TY
i wonder were the thumbs down came from . i simply used Muslims instead of Blacks
I would also like to thank the Professor for this blog. As someone who often doesn’t understand the law, I appreciate his ability to put it into words I understand without making me feel stupid! Thank you, Professor Jacobson.

It’s the media. The paid goons who really don’t do “news” so much as propaganda. One thing you’d know, though. Their audiences aren’t black. Because they don’t get a real good cross section of people in their media shows.
You’d find Asians missing. Hispanics missing. Our kids missing. And, lots of white’s missing.
They do think, though, that they can stir up the pot.
Yesterday, and it could have been at JOM (Just One Minute), or Instapundit, where the comment got made: It’s as if the polling companies have gone on vacation. And, the reason given? The polls weren’t showing their agenda, correctly. A good majority of Americans sympathize with George Zimmerman. And, besides, the comment went on, obama’s numbers are tanking. So this part of their “show” is erased from view.
At OJ’s acquital, there was real surprise by lots of people, other than blacks, who had watched the trial. But OJ had been wealthy. So the blacks reaction was more like HA. HA. HA. We can do that. And, you can’t stop us.
This one is different, because Al Sharpton, head grievance man, knew how to call out rioters in 100 communities. Two groups of 50 in each of our 50 States? When Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills was picked, I laughed my head off! The richest librals live there! Seeing rioters coming only meant they got on thei jet planes and left the area. The screaming mob, it seems, doesn’t even disgriminate. Can’t tell the difference between white librals, who always support their schtick. And, the average American.
Oh, they also picked on Hollywood. Blacks hate gays, don’t cha know. Bringing the Trayvon message into that neighborhood could’a disrupted a few same sex marriages, no? Would the “Justifiers for Trayvon” have gone outside to invite these “drop-in” guests in?
The only “rainbow” in that coalition belongs to Jesse Jackson, and his “rainbow” got co-opted in Hollywood. You can’t fool me.
And, for the cherry on top of the cake Detroit went bust.
Obama talks a good game. But he can’t bail out (or away) any of his vexing problems. Which is a good thing.
No carol it is not the media.
Every single human has the ability to think on their own.
I for one am sick and tired of the MEDIA MADE ME THINK IT
excuse. as for Hollywood…..
Hey, as a Florida resident, if Reverend Jesse gets all black thugs and their sympathizers to vacate the state, he would become my favorite person
Hi Carol . on the polling . We all know we can’t trust them anymore . In barrys first term he an chief of staff threaten to sue every polling company that hurt their feeling . polling the next week looked real good for bambie . Imagine that !
(i never cap his name nor prez till we get a real one)
“One of the issues we discussed was the false racial narrative of the case perpetuated by the media…”
Which, by itself, is certainly bad enough. Unfortunately, it was not left by itself, as we all know only too well.
Our own central government injected itself into this in very clearly racial ways, and for the crassest of political gain.
They have very overtly signaled they intend to keep up this outrage, and we all know why.
These people are outlaws.
What? They are not outlaws they are elected officials.
America does not have a central government we have 50 states. Melodrama aside it is best to stick to the facts.
There is an enemy within and they have been elected.
The Constitution is in cursive……
The Constitution is in cursive……
Best subtle line evah!
Since when can elected officials NOT be outlaws at the same time?
We certainly DO have a central government. Where did you graduate from public school?
It used to be hypocrisy was a case of the kettle calling the pot black.
Now we have a case of the mixed white/black’s kettle calling the mixed white/hispanic/black’s pot white.
A race war means martial law, means no elections, means King Barack.
There will be no race war, the astro-turfed charades are dwindling. FAILURE
some of you need to cancel your cable tv me thinks.
AME black churches ( if you don’t know bone up ) are trying to gin up this weekend, using cherry picked occupy people who they have on the payroll. FAILURE
Perhaps I would be more willing to listen to your argument if you were a trifle less condescending.
We had a civil war before, but it didn’t affect elections.
Well, I am telling everybody, we need to learn a lesson from Rahm Emanual, and not let this silly crisis go to waste. The Left has thoughtfully exposed the fact that many in their party are pound-for-pound as Moon Bat crazy as the Birthers.
We should take advantage of this. I am calling the Trayvonites, “The New Birthers” so that the undecided can see the many similarities between the two groups. Particularly the whole Hysterics Over Unfounded Suspicions thingy.
Although I am appalled at the Great Racist Witch Hunt, I am delighted that Conservatives are no longer the only side which has openly bizarre, crazy conspiracy theorists out there in public babbling like maniacs. We have been missing that since the Truthers have sort of faded back to Roswell.
Sooo, maybe we should start talking up this point. The New Birthers, The Birthers of the Left, The Trayvonite Birthers, etc.

Who are you calling “birthers?” There are legitimate questions surrounding Obama’s birth certificate. And I’m not talking about where he was born. But there are things that can’t be explained. I don’t think it’s wrong to ask.
@JoAnne, don’t feed the trolls.
@Squeeky is trolling. Do you know who Squeaky Fromme is?
Well, either way, don’t feed trolls…………..they live like parasites on such tidbits.
Do you know what SPELLING is???

Oh, dear, I’m so sorry! I’m just not used to trolls on the Prof’s blog! The neighborhood has been invaded. Yes, I do know who Ms. Fromm is, shoulda figured it out! Thanks for the slap on the hand!
I disagree, but what is important is the near-universal laughter and disdain with which RATIONAL people greet Birthers and their silly nonsense.
The important difference here is, that higher-up Republicans disassociate themselves from their Birther moon bats, while the Democratic higher-ups are welcoming their Trayvonite moon bats with open arms and egging them on.
This would be a FANTASTIC talking point for Republican talking heads! Plus, the comparison is appropriate. The two groups have MUCH in common, both in mindset, and in practice.
I have written on it, and will probably do more. But my blog is very esoteric and eclectic and not well read. And never will be to the world at large. But my goodness, wouldn’t it be great to hear Rush, or Sean Hannity, or Mark Levin say something like:
“Can you believe these Trayvonites??? These people are the Birthers of the Left. They build a case on nothing but suspicions, and silly legal analysis, and then try to get the authorities involved. The difference is, that the Democrats embrace them.
Every party has its crazies. We have ours. But we try to hide ours in the basement somewhere. Out of sight. But to get some votes, to do some race baiting, to drive some more phony divisions between Americans, to cause some more class warfare, the President and Eric Holder and the Black Congressional Caucus, they run to their crazies! They give them group hugs, these Trayvonites, and egg them on! etc.”
That’s my opinion. Use their silliness the same way the Democrats use our silliness.

Poor George, he must be kicking himself in the butt since he voted for his persecutor.
To rub IT in, McDreamy is the ASA prosecuting his wife for perjury.
OMG, ugh, that guy is a turd!

Check out this video, this Pastor really lays it all out there about the truth of why many blacks refuse to believe Zimmerman is not guilty.
WOW! Incredible video. And best of all, he is right!
Too bad it was cut short, I would love to see the whole video. Any chance?
I think this is the sermon/pastor:
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/07/18/lightning-rod-nyc-pastors-stunningly-confrontational-sermon-on-trayvon-martin-you-see-the-world-through-your-black-eyes/
Here is another one along the same lines:
http://ronbosoldier.blogspot.com/2013/07/black-racism-killed-trayvon-martin.html
He , the pastor . Laid it out . AMEN
It is so frustrating and soo wrong that the black leaders who do call for personal responsibility, call out the race baiters and those media darlings that earn their living taking millions $ to ummmmm ” improve education. poverty. crime etal” are not presented equally by the MSM…They are instead treated as ” idiots” , ” and irrelevant”. I place this on the door steps of the MSM, parents, and the so elevated false black leaders…
The racial agitating isn’t about race or rights. It’s about turnout.
Obama was only able to win because the young minority turnout held high from 2008. He wasn’t on the ballot in 2010 and it was a fiasco for Democrats. Their only chance in the midterms and in 2016 is to keep young minority voters motivated and turning out.
Forty-plus years of federal control of public education has dumbed our youth down to the point they no longer have any critical thinking skills. If they learn anything at all, it’s what their union teachers and leftist texts drum into them – and that’s not match, Shakespeare, and Aristotle.
So keeping them – and minority voters generally – all worked up and angry is the key for Democratic electoral prospects, at least until they can convince Republicans to grant the vote to millions of new unskilled welfare clients.
“…MATH, Shakespeare, and Aristotle …” – drat the lack of an edit function.
Now Obama’s doubled down by saying Trayvon could have been him 35 years ago.
Somehow, I can believe that, if you think about it for a minute.
If Holder is despicable for his Racist Hotline,
Obama is doubly despicable for his Putz Line.
One commenter said something to the effect, ‘Too Bad, the country and world would certainly be a better place today.’
Link
There’s many a person who may not say or type that, but will be thinking the same thing.
So 35 years ago, Obama was doing drugs, walking around with burglary tools, women’s jewelry and jumping overweight latinos?
Pity that we didn’t know this before the 2008 elections . . .
He’s right…. 35 years ago he WAS a dope-smoking stoner who walked around looking scary, so yeah, just like Trayvon.
Yep, Trayvon seemed to be angling toward an invite to the Choom Club!
“Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago.”
And any one of Kermit Gosnell’s tiny victims could have been you 51 years ago, Obama.
Oh, except I forgot. Gosnell was “just a local story” not worth Obama’s time or effort to comment on.
Carry on.
The ultimate touche, that.
Bravo to that
Well.
Now Pres. Snoop-Dog is out singing teh “Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen…” blues about growing up on the mean streets of an exclusive, elite suburb of Honolulu.
What a fraud.
Only in Obama’s America can a brown man shoot a black man and the white man gets the blame.
“brown man shoot a black man in reasonable self defense”
Rep. Steve King’s summation of the Zimmerman trial said to Rep. Bobby Rush on Hannity last night:
“What happened was a young Hispanic man shot a black man in self defense, was tried by a jury of women and somehow Bobby Rush thinks it’s a white man’s fault.”
Given the latest personalized interjection of himself into the Zimmerman case – AGAIN! – I would love a reply to my question:
Does George Zimmerman have any case, any grounds, any standing to take Obama, Holder, and/or the US government to court for recklessly endangering his life, for obstruction of justice, or some other grounds I can’t think of now? I know he’s suing NBC, but this?!?! Beyond the pale outrageous!!
As I see it, the President of the United States saying what he did has, in effect, put a target on Zimmerman – with a “presidential seal of approval” on anyone who kills Zimmerman, basically. Maybe even a “presidential pardon guarantee” to boot!
Obama has turned this into a national race war gauntlet challenge, I believe.
May the Lord help us and protect us from this hideous regime.
“Does George Zimmerman have any case, any grounds, any standing to take Obama, Holder, and/or the US government to court for recklessly endangering his life…”
I would say, very provisionally, YES!
I think there is a landmark case to be made that the civil authorities at the highest reaches of our judicial system have grossly violated their Constitutional oath by utterances that taint any potential jury pool, rob Zimmerman of his presumption of innocence, AND prejudice the state legislators by casting aspersions on the laws they passed.
Well, yes, Mr. President, it could have been you, thirty-five years ago, if you had jumped out at one of your neighbors in the dark and committed a violent assault upon him, causing him reasonably to fear for his life.
While I’ve noticed comments on websites becoming more and more balanced, even pro-Zimmerman now that the trial is over and the truth has come out, that the Traybots are becoming more aggressive and strident on TV and during speeches. They are not going to let this go and Obama just had a news conference where he stoked the fire.
Only consideration: 2014. The Democrats have nothing to run on and plenty to run away from, hence RACISM! shall be the prevailing campaign theme.
Even worse that having nothing else to run on, the Democrats are going to have to run on OBAMACARE. Which I promise you is going to turn out pretty badly when young people have to start coughing up money for it.And others see their rates take off. And companies find it cheaper to pay the penalties. And work hours get cut back. etc.
Which we all hear about in great campaign ads, if the idiot Republicans ever learn to stop catering to the Country Club Crowd.

Best comment I’ve read:
Obama: I’ve been followed in stores.
Commentator: That’s the Secret Service you idiot!
Now that’s funny no matter who you are.
Or a loss-control officer who’s a keen judge of character…
For Obama and company this is all about keeping young lo-info blacks on the Democrat plantation, though they do risking alienating some young Hispanics.
With the national media there is another component. The 24/7/365 cable/internet news cycle had made theirs a tawdry business. The media’s fixation on race is, in part, an attempt to cling to past glory. Everyone who has studied the history of the national media learns how the national media lauds itself on having been instrumental in bringing the racial injustices of the South to America’s living rooms and breakfast tables in the 1950s and early 60s. In the minds of too many editors and producers it is still 1963 and every white Southern male is still Bull Connor.
35 years ago, he was barry soetero. And, he had more than one social security card number. Plus, just like Trayvon, his school records disappeared. Not that I had ever thought he had been suspended. But, now? Who Knows?
funny, where I work, there hasn’t been a single word said about the Zimmerman case, even though it’s a heavily integrated environment.
Of course, everybody there is trying to make a living by selling stuff. And junior Al Obamas don’t last a day. I wonder if that might be a factor.
