Understanding the Charges Against George Zimmerman
| April 11, 2012 | Posted by JerriCook under Bad Lawyers, Criminal Procedure, Equal Protection, Legal Issues, Nut jobs, Political Correctness |
In a news conference on April 11, 2012, a pandering special prosecutor announced that she and her team of investigators were going to seek ‘justice for Trayvon’ by charging the victim, George Zimmerman, with 2nd degree murder. So, let’s take a look at what that means.
The Elements of 2nd degree murder:
Second degree murder is a homicide (the killing of another human) committed with malice. The issue in this case isn’t whether a homicide occurred. Zimmerman clearly killed Martin, and admits to doing it. Here, we are concerned with the element of malice, which can be proven in four ways:
- Intent to kill
- Intent to commit serious bodily harm
- Reckless disregard for the life of another
- By application of the Felony Murder Rule, if one exists by statute in the State of Florida.

It’s long been an American cornerstone—those who have done the crime and served the time deserve a chance to rejoin society as a productive member. Ex-cons who go to school, get a job, and become active in their communities are often a force for good in communities where crime is rampant and drugs are ubiquitous. They become role models. So, why can’t these role models participate in the political process? By what authority are they banned from a major part of American society? (more…)

[UPDATE: It seems poor, innocent docile Trayvon was sent to his father's house because he was suspended from school for beating his bus driver senseless just five days before he attacked Zimmerman . Let me guess, the bus driver was a racist like George Zimmerman, right? Before the beating of the bus driver, Trayvon had been busted at school with weed. And there's more. Just weeks before he attacked Zimmerman, Martin had been caught with burglary tools and women's jewelry in his backpack.Obviously, the school's policy against drug use on school grounds is racist, and so is the law against burglary tools. I have news for Barack Obama, if he thinks his would-be son would be like Trayvon, it's very, very telling.]

It’s pretty much over now. This whole meme that some racist White guy shot a poor, innocent, docile child for being Black has come crashing down around the collective mainstream media. They all got it wrong. What really happened to Trayvon Martin is revealed in the uncut police recordings from that night. Take a moment to listen to them below. Martin was in an area where he had no business being— a gated community. Gates aren’t there to keep people in. He was spotted by Zimmerman who was only trying to protect his community from another break-in. Zimmerman called 911 and reported the suspicious character. The dispatcher told Zimmerman they didn’t need him to follow Martin, and Zimmerman complied. He had no choice, because as the recordings reveal, he had lost sight of Martin at that point.
Zimmerman turned around and went to his car to await the police. What Zimmerman didn’t know is that Martin saw him retreat, and when a thug sees a retreat they immediately believe the other person is afraid. Martin followed Zimmerman back to his car and attacked him from behind. Trayvon Martin got exactly what he had coming, and the color of his skin can’t change that. No matter what charlatans and race-baiters like Barack Obama, Al Sharpton, and Fox News would have you believe. (more…)
Racist Blacks and the real tragedy of Trayvon Martins’ legacy

As the sophomoric crowds of protesters jump on the racist bandwagon, marching through the streets of America’s cities demanding “justice” for Trayvon Martin, the rest of us are forced to ask the obvious question. Why do black racists like Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakahn, and Barack Obama get a pass when it comes to Due Process for other races?
A Grand Jury has been impaneled to investigate what happened on the night Williams was killed. Why do the Black Panthers and Al Sharpton’s idiot minions believe that they can circumvent the justice system? Isn’t that how Americans get justice, in the court system? Can you imagine if a group of Hispanics, Asians, or Whites demanded that the court system be circumvented? The whining in the Black community would be ear-splitting, and the term “lynch mob” would be screeched across the airwaves. (more…)
Why Assembly Member Jerry Petrowski is the Wisconsin GOP’s Best Choice Against the Left
| March 17, 2012 | Posted by JerriCook under Legal Issues, Rural Issues |
Before Wisconsin Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald decides that Representative Mary Williams should be replacement for Pam Galloway in the upcoming recall election, he might want to consider Assembly Member Jerry J. Petrowski’s credentials, which are far more impressive than those of Williams. A cursory look at Project Vote Smart reveals that Petrowski is a dedicated public servant and a steadfast conservative. His military service and strong commitment to his entire community (not just the privileged few who will heap unwarranted praise on him) is apparent even at first blush. The Democratic oppo teams aren’t going to find much on him, but I promise you they’ll have a hay day with Williams, and in so doing expose several other RINOs who take party money and then behave like tyrants.

I almost gagged. Not because of the low-carb beer I was sampling, but because the Wisconsin GOP is considering running Mary Williams of Medford in the wake of Pam Galloway’s resignation. Galloway was targeted by the whiny teacher’s unions and was facing a recall election this spring. On Friday evening, the reports that she would resign started leaking out. Then, the claim that that Mary Williams, certified RINO and elitist snob was being considered for Galloway’s seat. Hold on there Wisconsin GOP. You might want to reconsider. (more…)
