The final paragraph of the president’s written statement on the outcome of the Zimmerman trial:
We should ask ourselves if we’re doing all we can to widen the circle of compassion and understanding in our own communities. We should ask ourselves if we’re doing all we can to stem the tide of gun violence that claims too many lives across this country on a daily basis. We should ask ourselves, as individuals and as a society, how we can prevent future tragedies like this. As citizens, that’s a job for all of us. That’s the way to honor Trayvon Martin.
I am sick to death of this president blaming society as a whole for the sins of the bad people among us. The lack of a ‘circle of compassion’ and the need to ‘stem gun violence’ had little, if anything, to do with what happened to Trayvon Martin. And preventing future tragedies like this is not ‘a job for all of us’.
Barack Obama is a Marxist/socialist. He believes in collectivism in general, and collective guilt in particular. And I’m not buying it.
What is needed to stop tragedies like this is for Barack Obama and his ilk to stop igniting insidious sparks in an attempt to instigate a race war, and stop fanning the flames with ludicrous collectivist pap.
Although I feel sincere compassion for Trayvon Martin’s family, and I am sorry his life had to be lost in his encounter with George Zimmerman last February, I do not spend my time ‘honoring’ teenage thugs who believe the world owes them something, and who choose to threaten the lives of law-abiding citizens. My ‘honoring’ is reserved for those who deserve honor (such as the members of the American military … be they black, white, or anything in between … who are daily laying their lives on the line thousands of miles from their homes).
Nowhere in his comments did our president once mention the torment that George Zimmerman has endured over the last year and a half. Nowhere did he acknowledge that Mr. Zimmerman was unjustly accused, that Barack Obama himself attempted to prejudice his trial, and that his administration did everything within its power to adversely affect the outcome when a genuinely honorable American citizen’s life hung in the balance.
This president's evil intents, and penchant to preach collectivist garbage, appear to know no bounds. |
