(Salon.Com)  Since Florida cannot defend black life against white fear, the question now is: How should black people respond?

How much more are black people in this country supposed to take?

On Saturday, a Florida jury failed to convict Michael Dunn for the callous murder of Jordan Davis. Though he was convicted of three counts of attempted murder and also on a gun charge, a mistrial was declared for the first-degree murder charge. He will face substantial jail time – perhaps up to 75 years on the four charges for which he was found guilty.

Prosecutor Angela Corey has also publicly declared her intent to seek retrial on the murder conviction. However, she is the same prosecutor who oversaw the Zimmerman murder trial and failed to get a conviction. (more…)

I’ll be writing up some thoughts on how the media is presenting this again.

The issues are far more complex than can be summarized in a six to eight hundred word synopsis.

There are serious issues represented in how Chris Cuomo and the larger media are continuing to advance a historically flawed narrative surrounding the shooting death of Trayvon Martin. When the trial evidence was presented (poorly in my opinion) and then the jury verdict was announced, a decision by the media was needed. Would they admit their former false presentations, or would they double down on their false media narrative.

It is now clear the media is wantonly doubling down on their falsehoods.

It is also clear the reason they can get away with it is because Mark O’Mara played a white-guilt apologist role in keeping the “why” out of the sunlight.

As the only person who interviewed hundreds of students in/around Krop Senior High School, and having invested thousands of hours in research to the people and motivation’s behind the story, we will attempt clarification.

VERY FEW, almost no-one, at Krop Senior High School knew Trayvon Martin. When you understand why that is, you begin to understand how totally false the entire construct of the shooting storyline, as presented by the media, actually is.

The STAND YOUR GROUND statute was NOT used in either the Zimmerman or Dunn trials.   Period.

Let me repeat.  The STAND YOUR GROUND statute was NOT used in either the Zimmerman or Dunn trials.   Period.

Repetition is needed because literally every single media pundit talking about either trial says, as if it were true, that Stand Your Ground was a factor in the self-defense claims of George Zimmerman and Michael Dunn.  However, for media and politicians they can never let facts get in the way of their propaganda.

FLORIDA – Critics of Florida’s Stand-Your-Ground law are using the verdict in the murder trial of Michael Dunn to showcase their argument that state laws should be changed.

Dunn was convicted on three counts of second-degree attempted murder, but the jury could not reach a verdict on first- or-second-degree murder in the shooting death of 17-year-old Jordan Davis after about 30 hours of deliberations.

“It’s a sloppy bill. It needs to be narrowly tailored and judges need more discretion,” U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown, a Jacksonville Democrat, said Sunday.

“When the law started, the intention was very good: If you break into my house, I’m going to deal with you. But when you extend [that premise]…. there are problems.” (more…)

“Reporters Without Borders”,  a watchdog organization headquartered in Paris, France and known by its French acronym, “RSF”, has published its annual “World Press Freedom Index”.

Liberty Blitzkrieg brings to our attention that in the great march FORWARD!, the US was a front runner in the stakes for greatest loss of press freedom in year over year results – slipping an impressive 13 slots  from #33 last year to #46 on the 2014 world ranking, after Romania but before Haiti.

There were some “non-surprises”, such as North Korea and Eritrea remaining at the back of the pack, but also some pleasant surprises with tiny Belize clocking in at an impressive #29, hanging out in the “free press” band with Australia at #28.

Clearly, much work remains to be done before the US can be satisfied that the people’s work is completed and it can comfortably hang in the 100’s with its pals in the middle east and Africa.  Maybe that will provide the necessary incentive to Dirty Harry in the Senate to get working on that innertubes kill switch.  In the meantime, those pesky bloggers keep bringing up stuff like Benghazi, or Warrantless Wiretaps, or the ever expanding use of technology to spy on and monitor its own citizens.

The 2014 World Press Freedom Index spotlights the negative impact of conflicts on freedom of information and its protagonists. The ranking of some countries has also been affected by a tendency to interpret national security needs in an overly broad and abusive manner to the detriment of the right to inform and be informed. This trend constitutes a growing threat worldwide and is even endangering freedom of information in countries regarded as democracies. Finland tops the index for the fourth year running, closely followed by Netherlands and Norway, like last year. At the other end of the index, the last three positions are again held by Turkmenistan, North Korea and Eritrea, three countries where freedom of information is non-existent.

VIRGINIA – Some were surprised to hear about the black mob violence on Valentine’s Day  at Victoria’s Secret in Norfolk, Va.

Not at the violence: The Galleria at Military Circle has been the site of  dozens of episodes of racial lawlessness over the last two years, most of which  has gone unreported in the local newspaper.

The surprise is that this mall is still open. Most of its major tenants are  gone or leaving – Sears, J.C. Penney’s, the nearby DoubleTree also closed. The  big draw there now is a movie theater with cheap tickets.

More than 25 percent of the space is vacant. DeadMalls.com says the mall is a  “zombie” that is really dead but just acts alive.

The latest example of black mob violence at the mall came  on Valentine’s Day. A large group of people fought in the Victoria’s Secret  store. One guy pulled out a gun and shot someone in the leg. (more…)

VENEZUELA –  “I want to get out of here. I want to leave this country as soon as possible and never come back.”

The text from my friend Luis surprised me. A lawyer by training, he got his masters in urban planning from an elite Manhattan university, and had returned to Venezuela full of hope. He was hired by a local NGO working on poverty abatement issues. But now, he’s fed up.

“Nothing works. There are lines to buy everything. Prices have gone through the roof. You can’t go out at night for fear of getting shot. If you want to get married, finding a place to live is impossible. The country has become unlivable.” (more…)

NEW YORK – Two radio DJs in Long Island who caused an uproar last week by posting the homophobic RSVP to a birthday party for a ‘little girl with two gay dads’ admitted on Saturday that the whole thing was a hoax.

K-98.3 DJs Steve Harper and Leeana Karlson on Wednesday posted on their show’s Facebook page a heartbreaking note written on an invitation to a ‘tie dye party’ for a girl named ‘Sophia’s’ seventh birthday.

The DJs tricked people into believing that Sophia had two gay dads, and the note – supposedly written by the mother of a friend of Sophia’s, who they called ‘Tommy’ – stated ‘Tommy will NOT attend. I do not believe in what you do and will not subject my innocent son to your lifestyle. I’m sorry Sophia has to grow up this way.’ (more…)

Mitch McConnell said two weeks ago on Fox News Sunday the GOP would attach demands to a debt ceiling vote:

“We ought to attach something significant for the country to [Obama’s] request to increase the debt ceiling,” McConnell said. “That’s been the pattern for fifty years, going back to the Eisenhower administration. I think it’s the responsible thing to do for the country. I think he’s the one being irresponsible by saying, ‘Oh, just raise the debt ceiling. We’re not going to do anything about the debt or anything else that’s important to the country.'”

Yet, when the time came to actually deliver on fiscal restraint, it was Mitch McConnell who led the Senate Chamber to give Obama a blank check and raise the debt limit with no fiscal restraint and no demands.   And if you don’t like that, if you oppose him, Mitch says “bring it on”…  I will not be defied.

“No my friend, you don’t sell this stuff to me.  You sell this to the people who don’t have self-respect and self-determination,  and they are weak,  and they love to be subjugated and to be dependent on the government.”

WASHINGTON DC – On Tuesday, the Senate Conservatives Fund called for the ouster of House Speaker John Boehner. Now the SCF, originally founded by Sen. Jim DeMint and run by a close DeMint associate, has launched the harshest attack yet on its No. 1 target, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. The SCF likens McConnell’s leadership of the Senate to Internal Revenue Service harassment of conservatives. (CONTINUE READING)
