Pedro's Podium: Guilty Until Proven Guilty

Guilty Until Proven Guilty

Sometimes the story just writes itself. In the news media there is a saying: “If it bleeds, it leads.” I can just see the scene in the bowels of some media organization or Progressive consulting organization. They see a story. It has all the right elements. The episode involves a gated community, a dead African-American, a legally armed Jewish—read white—shooter, and to top it off the shooter goes free. This would seem to be the next great headline grabber. How could it miss? After all it occurred in Florida, which passed a “stand your ground” law a few years back.

Twisting this whole affair into a blood letting lead story line would seem to be child play. What a narrative: The rich shooter in his exclusive neighborhood (a member of a community watch) must have used his political influence to hunt down an innocent kid for walking while black (WWB). With the waning interest in the “War on Women” political story, the Left Stream Media really needed another story to grab the headline and help push their left-wing agenda. All they needed was to paint the picture and wait for the Merchants of hate, such as groups like—Eric Holder’s favorite hate group—the New Black Panthers, plus race baiter Jessie Jackson, and don’t forget all of the self-hating white commentators at NBC News and their cable channel. Of course I could not leave out MSNBC’s leader on the Progressive hate front man, Al Sharpton.

With the employment of Mr. Sharpton as a so-called “commentator” NBC removed any last shred of being non-biased and embraced the outright hatred for America and freedom. No one should be surprised that they would not only openly advocate for the murder of an American citizen, without trail, but turned one of their employees lose to push vigilantly justice. NBC and the rest of the media have pushed the limits on the First Amendment. They are constantly attempting to insight riots by not only showing prejudicial pictures of the victim, but repeating a narrative that is based in fiction. Media pundits nightly discuss this sad episode as if they personally witnessed it. They ignored anything that does not fit their agenda, and again in the case of NBC, edited 911 tapes to fit their hate filled desire to see blood run in the streets. Even though they promise an investigation, the damage is done. Maybe it is time for Comcast to look a little closer at their broadcast unit.

The biggest problem with this story is that somehow the tale became more complicated when the “rich Jew” became a Hispanic. So the media suddenly coined a new race; White-Hispanic. The sudden rush to judgment by so many has put innocent people in danger while pandering to worst elements of our society. Those who rush to judge others without all the facts are as guilty of the crimes committed by those they are attempting to insight. The blood of all the innocent lives lost or damaged is on the hands of those who sent them forward. It is a national disgrace that so many racist are so willing to demonstrate they blind hate. What makes Mr. Sharpton, Mr. Jackson, or the members of the New Black Panthers any different then the Klukers of the last century? There is none in my eyes. Racist haters should not be given a national stage to communicate their sick and demented ideas.

So will the media once again be able to fill their coffers with blood money from riots that they insight? Is it not time for the American people to turn off the hate speech from those who only wish to fill their “news” programs with scenes of death and destruction that they have directly encouraged. I know of no other time that the media has so openly called for and supported violence.

The death of a 17 year old person should never be used in such a manner. The open calls for violence are unacceptable for this nation. The rush to judgment serves no one who believes in equal justice under the law. Guilty until proven guilty is not the American way. The real guilt falls on those who ignore the real crime of black upon black because it does not fit their agenda. This affair is not worthy of national attention in this manner. Those who are in-sighting violence must pay for their criminal behavior. It is still against the law to shout FIRE in a crowded theater and those who are shouting for blood must face the justice that they want to deny to Mr. Zimmerman and anyone who may be injured or kill if the riots they seem to be calling for occur.
