Draggingtree Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 American Thinker: June 9, 2012 The Lynching of George Zimmerman By Anthony W. Hager George Zimmerman's public image took a blow when a judge revoked his bond, alleging that Zimmerman willfully misled the court concerning his financial situation. The fact that he's back in jail makes him appear guilty in the public's eye, and that's what matters. Whether or not Zimmerman misled the court is immaterial. In fact, his guilt or innocence is immaterial. His trial has transcended justice; it's now about capitalizing on opportunity. Zimmerman has maintained since day one that Trayvon Martin instigated their fatal confrontation. Zimmerman's various injuries coupled with autopsy results revealing Martin's injured knuckles tend to support his story. That evidence might be the reason why he wasn't charged immediately after the shooting. Yet he remains guilty until proven innocent in the eyes of many, including the federal government and national media. Could there be an orchestrated campaign between government and media entities to see this man imprisoned, or even executed? Despite the physical evidence of which we're aware, an apparent lack of credible witnesses on either side of the case, and expert legal opinion belittling Florida's case against Zimmerman, the FBI has launched a hate crime investigation against him. And it could stick. We might logically believe that the Fifth Amendment's protection against double jeopardy would compel the Justice Department to abandon the case if Zimmerman is acquitted.

pollyannaish Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Regardless of what happens, his life is ruined. And it could be said all to score political points. If you want to see a classic case of the worst kind of bullying, this is it. And it has nothing to do with either Martin or Zimmerman. It has to do with the government bullying regular people for political points. No matter what the truth is in this case (and we will never know now) the way this has been handled by the government and press should send a chill down every American's spine. Should you get in the way do the narrative to keep someone in power, you will be bullied by the elite and your life snuffed out. I believe that is tyranny at it's finest.

righteousmomma Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 I agree with all here. Pretty darn scary how our so called free press/media rushed to judgment on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
