On the left you have John Moody and on the right you have Charles Poland.

Both men had things in common.    Both were school bus drivers.  Both were almost the exact same age, Moody 64 and Poland 66.   But that’s about where the similarity stops.
Charles Poland gave his life to protect “his kids” when a gunman walked on to his Alabama bus and demanded two of the passengers.   His story is HERE, and here’s the video:

A recent interview with the Gulfport Florida bus driver, John Moody, reveals he just didn’t want to intervene.
Moody reportedly retired after the school district launched an internal
investigation. The case was turned over to the state attorney’s office, but
prosecutors said Thursday Moody’s actions didn’t rise to the level of child
neglect.  (link)
Unlike the previously released bus footage, the race of the driver appears to play a larger role than initially evidenced.  The local police asked the District Attorney to file negligence charges against Mr. Moody.   The DA chose not to pursue charges.
Watch the video and you’ll see the issue:

What is really at play here, in addition to the 15-year-old thugs who beat the 13-year-old white boy, is *why* the bus driver did not engage to assist. One can only imagine how the BGI and NAACP would approach the issue if the driver were white, the thugs white, and the younger victim black.
In this case, according to the Sharpton, Jackson and Jealous contingent, this beatdown could not be considered racist because the victim was white.  And all media efforts are desperate now, framed to protect the bus driver from any consequences to his lack of action. (more…)

Meanwhile the man who organized the hoax has a full time TV show on MSNBC and continues his race-baiting enterprises……  Go look up the entire story of *how* Tawana Brawley was handled, and you’ll see how eerily similar it is to Rachel Jeantel….
New York Post – Twenty-five years after accusing an innocent man of rape, Tawana Brawley is finally paying for her lies.
Last week, 10 checks totaling $3,764.61 were delivered to ex-prosecutor Steven Pagones — the first payments Brawley has made since a court determined in 1998 that she defamed him with her vicious hoax.
A Virginia court this year ordered the money garnisheed from six months of Brawley’s wages as a nurse there.
She still owes Pagones $431,000 in damages. And she remains defiantly unapologetic.
“It’s a long time coming,” said Pagones, 52, who to this day is more interested in extracting a confession from Brawley than cash. (more…)

Police in Gulfport have requested a local DA to file a charge against a bus driver for failing to be George Zimmerman.    Well, kinda…  watch the video and you’ll see the issue:

What is really at play here is *why* the bus driver did not engage to assist. However, against the demands of the Natalie Jackson types for young black males to be left alone to roam at will and never challenged, he was, and is, between a racial rock, and a racist hard place.
One can only imagine how the BGI and NAACP would approach the driver if he did step forth to defend the white student from the mob beating.  [Think, “he shoulda stayed in his car seat]  After all, according to the Sharpton, Jackson and Jealous contingent, this beatdown could not be considered racist because the victim was white.

Katrisha shares a valued comment:

It is difficult to feel welcome here as a black woman when blanket statements are tossed at will.
Many of “us” agree with much of what “you” say, but when blanket statements about our race are thrown, a) one automatically weakens their argument and b) it makes “us” who tend to agree, cringe or shy away.  (shrugs)

There is a bigger “there” within that comment, which deserves expansion – and perhaps a greater understanding.

In the field of ideas, conservative patriots can dress down the racists with quick dispatch.  Why?  Because the conservatives view people as individuals and not attached to collectives.   However, yes here comes the “but”,…. when the individual does not draw down their own collective – the battle of ideas is necessarily broad-stroked.
Here’s what I mean using examples. (more…)

Last year we wrote the discussion thread “Do You Think All of These People Are Going To Quit – Not Likely” because we knew then what most are aware of now.   The shooting death of Trayvon Martin, and the subsequent prosecution of George Zimmerman had nothing really to do with the events of February 26th.
The case never was about George Zimmerman;   He was only a product.   Those who refused to accept the political reality, and even George Zimmerman’s attorney, Mark O’Mara, can clearly see that now.
Rather than beat the horse, because y’all have followed this so long, let’s just focus on current events.   Those newly awakened can use the site search functions to see the 1,000+ research posts which outline the history and full back-story.
 
At this point, because we have stayed faithful to sharing the truth of the whole construct, we have eyes/ears all around, inside, and surrounding almost every individual player in this insufferable ruse.  So let’s take a look at Ms. Candy (above left) and Fruit (above right) against the backdrop of their most recent conversation with the Feds.

(Miami Herald – Written by Jay Weaver)  The parents of Trayvon Martin and their lawyer met with Justice Department prosecutors and FBI agents at the U.S. attorney’s office in Miami Wednesday to discuss the status of a criminal civil-rights investigation into the fatal shooting of their teen-age son last year.
The federal investigation, which was opened while George Zimmerman faced prosecution for the death of the 17-year-old, gained renewed interest last month after Zimmerman was acquitted in state court of Martin’s killing in a Sanford gated community.
Prosecutors with the Justice Department’s criminal civil-rights section and FBI agents from Central Florida met with the late teen’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, and their attorney, Benjamin Crump, to bring the family up to speed, according to sources familiar with the meeting.

(Via NewsBusters) It seems that when there’s a good liberal narrative to be advanced, facts and  actual history don’t matter.
That was apparently the case when Oprah Winfrey claimed that the “n-word” was  the last thing heard by “millions” who were lynched. The implication is clear —  millions of blacks have been lynched because of their race.  Worse yet, Parade Magazine let Winfrey get away with her “fact”  unchallenged.
Winfrey  made her comments in an interview discussing Lee Daniels’ “The Butler,” a movie  that chronicles one black man’s years of service in the White House. Winfrey  plays the role of Gloria Gaines, the wife of Cecil Gaines, who served from  Eisenhower through Reagan. (more…)

No, we will not be writing discussion threads around the latest George Zimmerman sighting in Missouri and North Dakota.  Think about it.
Instead focus on the bigger picture.   Yesterday President Obama met with Eric Holder and Al Sharpton in the White House.

Gee, do you wonder why?  

Do you wonder why the Urban League summit in Philadelphia was filled with talk of eliminating punishment for school behavior, or criminal behavior, or violent behavior?
Did you wonder why, last year in July/August 2012 President Obama signed an executive order to assist “Blacks Only” in getting rid of school punishments, suspensions, et al.

Do you wonder why criminal background checks for employment are now considered racist?   ….And the EEO labor department is facilitating changes to EEO regulations?
Do you wonder why Tom Perez, former DOJ-CRS, Community Relations Service, (Black rights only) head is now in the president’s cabinet as Labor Secretary?
Do you wonder why black former CRS head Ondray Harris quit working for the Administration in DC after he was told to specifically punish white people, and to only hire black people.
Do you wonder why the Obama/DOJ planted, and yes they are planted, left-wing student Marxists are making noise in Tallahassee Florida to get rid of self-defense laws like Stand Your Ground?
Do you wonder why?
Really?

Looks like 2J’s is climbing back aboard the race-baiting express.   The comparison to former Alabama Governor, George Wallace, had to come with full DOJ/Eric Holder approval.   Vivian Malone-Jones (the young black lady who was the center of the George Wallace issue) is Eric Holder’s sister-in-law.
The entire fiasco set up in Tallahassee Florida is race-baiting ridiculous in the extreme.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida Gov. Rick Scott on Wednesday demanded an apology from longtime civil rights activist Jesse Jackson for comparing the state’s struggle with the Trayvon Martin case to the civil rights clashes with police during the 1960s in Selma, Ala.

Jackson spent the night with protesters upset that George Zimmerman was found not guilty of second-degree murder in the shooting death of Martin. They’ve refused to leave the Capitol until Scott calls a special session to have legislators overhaul the state’s self-defense laws.
Jackson called Florida the “Selma of our time” and even compared Scott to former Alabama Gov. George Wallace. While he was governor, Wallace famously stood in the door at the University of Alabama to try to block the entry of two black students. (more…)
