Please scroll down and get the Sousa music going before you begin reading this morning….  

At four thirty on a July morning when I was about fifteen years old, I was awake. Unusual. Don’t know why.
The house is quiet. Dad has breakfast and heads down to the barn to milk the two cows before beginning a long day’s work around six o’clock.
My bedroom on the second floor of the big farm house is actually the farthest point in the house from the front door or the back door, so slipping out of the house isn’t a matter of just stepping out of the door. But it’s a quiet, somewhat balmy morning and I suddenly realize that if I wanted to, I could go for a bike ride in my pajamas. I want to, so I do. (more…)

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Another recent shooting story is being discussed.   In New Orleans a 14-year-old black boy was shot, and the shooter arrested and now charged with attempted 2nd degree murder.
Quickly the Justice for Trayvon advocate types are rallying around “another Trayvon“, but this story does not pan out.   However, the bigger conversation being avoided is within the surrounding details.
First the details as reported by the local media:    NEW ORLEANS – A 14-year-old boy remained in critical condition Friday after being shot in the head by a homeowner who said he thought the teen was trying to break into his house. But police said the teen was unarmed and did not pose an “imminent threat” when he was shot and have charged the owner with attempted second-degree murder.

David Coulter, 23, said he largely raised his seven siblings, of which Marshall Coulter was the second-youngest, after their father died three years ago of stomach cancer.

The family of Marshall Coulter said the teenager could move only the right side of his body a little, but not the left. Doctors told the family that if Coulter survives, he would likely be severely brain damaged.
Coulter’s family acknowledged the teen’s history of burglary arrests but said he had never used a gun. (more…)

The more people and the media prop up Trayvon Martin as the symbol of black America;  The more those same people, and media, degrade and devalue all black Americans.

There is definitely a major feeling of discomfort now from both ABC News and B29’s Attorney, David M Chico, about being questioned.   They are deleting tweet questions, not answering phone calls, and in essence hiding from the recent discovery that Chico was the State Prosecuting attorney in the 2005 Zimmerman case, and ABC knew but did not reveal to audience.

Is B29 a willing player, or is she being played.?

Apparently this is going on right now:

About a week ago the Pro-Morsi forces in Egypt were organizing hardline Islamist support for a massive display of strength this weekend.   The Islamists, mostly from the Muslim Brotherhood, wanted all the Pro-Morsi folks to show up and display their support.
Not wanting such an optic to be left unchallenged, the regular people (non hardliners) who support moderation, and are more Westernized and open, organized the counter protest.   The Egyptian army supports the moderate side of the political spectrum, or this group.  Which makes sense because most of the Egyptian military officers are/were trained by the United States.

The results from the protest and counter protest are outlined well in this Daily Mail article.   There were hundreds of thousands more Moderates (military supporters) than Islamists (Morsi supporters). (more…)

Tying up some loose threads – [If you sent us this mugshot data please identify yourself so we can give you credit].    Remember that “awkward” sideways look on Sybrina’s face when the reporter asked about the “button” Trayvon was wearing when he was shot, that was also visible in the 7-11 video……?

The booking date of 3/25/08 is close to his date of death 05/01/08 ?

Justice099 was one of the first Treepers yesterday, and again today, to point out that each version of the ABC interview with B29 is highly edited to put her recorded answers behind completely differing questions.

Now ABC is being called out by a far left of center media enterprise, Slate.Com.  They too note not only the high editing, but also the construct of the edits themselves to make it appear that Juror B29 said things she absolutely did not say:

ABC News hasn’t posted a full unedited video or transcript of the interview. The video that has been broadcast—on World News Tonight, Nightline, and Good Morning America—has been cut and spliced in different ways, often so artfully that the transitions appear continuous. So beware what you’re seeing. But the video that’s available already shows, on closer inspection, that Maddy has been manipulated and misrepresented. Here are the key points.  (link)

ABC has been shown time and time again to be biased in their use of new stories to highlight political agendas.    Some of the most famous recent examples come from their coverage of the George Zimmerman case. (more…)
