This is about manipulating the legal system to achieve a goal; ultimately this Administration and their Media want to create a “legal precedence” whereby they can eliminate the fundamental right of self-defense. Race baiting has been inserted in order to create a public outcry (race) is the disguise. Many in the media just want headlines (“If it bleeds- it leads”) they are perfectly happy to incite riots in order to get the scoop. Politicians are slightly more subtle, if they can’t cheat the legal system they are nearly as happy with “social justice” generating division. <br /> I guess if Zimmerman is a white/Hispanic then 0bongo is a white/black?<br /><br />III<br />Resist<br /><br />VICTORAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236695365244926782.post-20846103739680863482013-07-16T08:00:21.010-07:002013-07-16T08:00:21.010-07:00Zoomie: It was amazing to travel that route. For ...Zoomie: It was amazing to travel that route. For a very considerable part of the drive we were on Colorado Rt 50 and 96, much of which ran alongside the same rail line(I think) that Joseph G. McCoy established in Abilene Kansas and turned that turned Abilene into a cow town. Along that route (currently west of Abilene) it looks (to my unknowing eyes) as if the old telegraph poles are still in place (though falling apart in many places poles cracking, cross-members crooked, wires falling to the ground).<br /><br />Parts of that route included small "towns" that had nearly "every" commercial and retail building boarded up for sale. The best looking building in every town was the tiny Post Office. The ground actually "looks" like it died, and never recovered. There may be more history to that area since the Dust Bowl, but simply by observing as we drove through, it sure looked like the area died and never got back on its feet.<br /><br />In most of those small "towns" (they are nearly modern Ghost Towns) there was usually an old, unused grainery near the railroad, which I assume was the primary industry in town, and once it shut down, everything started to die.<br /><br />How the few people still living in each of those towns still hangs on financially, I'll never know - because from what we could see, there were ZERO working farms or cattle operations until we moved considerably east and ran into a cattle yard that looked like a loading station of some sort (sorry folks, I know very little about the cattle business). This cattle yard was filled with full-sized black & white cows, and it appeared they were simply being housed and fed until a train came to get them, probably for slaughter. (there was no grazing area)<br /><br />That was an emotionally rough stretch of road, thinking of the hardships people had suffered through there.<br /><br />KKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17465944474238091234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236695365244926782.post-49165314122249404652013-07-16T07:06:40.070-07:002013-07-16T07:06:40.070-07:00"They were starving and desperate, and would ..."They were starving and desperate, and would follow/support anybody who could feed them and give them a modicum of hope in a hopeless situation."<br /><br />Cue the music for "The Making of a Tyrant."<br /><br />Miss VioletAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236695365244926782.post-92024352711268619712013-07-16T05:23:06.499-07:002013-07-16T05:23:06.499-07:00Jim, I know you are busy making boomsticks but, yo...Jim, I know you are busy making boomsticks but, you should REALLY haul your butt downstate and meet with us this weekend.
