THE TRAYVON MARTIN DISTRACTION...SPY DRONES IN YOUR BUSINESS

 

Last weekend I was thinking to myself what the Trayvon Martin huge news coverage is really about. I do know one thing is that his death is a waste of life, which I intimately know from suffering the needless loss of my nephew in December of 2006. My nephew was killed like so many other Black males in the United States by the hand of another Black male. Destroyed for nothing that he himself had done, just killed walking down the street to a friend’s house. So, I truly understand the pain Trayvon Martin’s family is feeling. Trayvon Martin was hunted and killed for no apparent reason, for nothing that he himself had done.

George Zimmerman was the culprit that took Trayvon Martin’s life and caused the pain and suffering for Trayvon’s family. George Zimmerman’s stupid action has caused pain and suffering for his own family. Zimmerman, in my estimation, was a zealous fool that really wanted to taste death issued by his own hands. This was not a reaction by Zimmerman, but something he had planned in his own imagination for sometime and the opportunity finally presented itself for him to act out the fantasy he had mentally rehearsed. Surely, this is speculation on my part, with nothing to support it other than Zimmerman’s own actions.

 

All the marches in support of Trayvon Martin’s family calling for a true investigation into his death is warranted as it smells quite fishy that a man can take the life of another and walk away Scot free. I would love to see all the energy poured out for Trayvon Martin continue for all the Black people killed to march in every city and town where Black killers are decimating other Black people. However, I couldn’t help but think that all this television and radio coverage was being used like the hand of the snake charmer waving in front of the cobra while the other hand grabs it from behind

Yesterday the hidden was exposed, the hand grabbed us. While we were all looking at, mad about and discussing the misery of the death of Trayvon Martin our president was busy giving the out of control police more power to invade our privacy. On February 8th Mr. Obama signed into law H.R. 658 allowing for the commercial use of spy drones in U.S. airspace. This means soon enough the police state will be expanding into the sky above your home. Your backyard will no longer be your private domain. Drones as small as bees will fly around snooping into your private business.

 

While the people were crying for justice for Trayvon, while the country holds it’s breath to see if the health bill will be held up as constitutional and the Republicans continue on their battle to see who will be the front man that will lose the presidential farce of an election, the hand of the snake charmer kept us busy while el primero presidente Moreno de Los Estados Unidos was usurping our rights away (some more). To add to the dearth of tricknology by the supreme tricksters is the false fighting about who is the more worthy to lead, the Democrats or the Republicans while both voted equally in the Democrat controlled Senate 75-20 to be able to spy on us. History of late in the U.S. has taught us (if you pay attention) every time there is a big hoopla, especially a Black and white racial hoopla, there is something brewing behind the scenes. WAKE UP!!!

WISE WORDS FROM THE AFROSPEAR TRUTH SEEKER

»

The world of American politics, especially presidential politics is blatantly and unashamedly opportunistic. It’s all about hype, slogans and who can capitalize on the latest story capturing the short attention span of the fickle public in the 48 hour news cycle, and/or trending within the world of social media.

Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich can learn from the master politician, President Barack Obama, on how to jump on an opportunity like a pit bull on a 4 year old. When Rush Limbaugh referred to Sandra Fluke on February 28th as a “slut” and “prostitute” for voicing her support for birth control during an unofficial House Democratic hearing, 2 days later she got a call from the President asking if she was “okay”. The parents of Trayvon Martin, a black teenager who was murdered in a racial motivated shooting on February 26th, has received no call (as yet) from the President to ask if they were “okay”… and they probably won’t.

See… Obama knows he needs the white woman vote to get re-elected, so he strategically decided to show empathy for Fluke’s hurt feelings when she was called a couple of derogatory names. On the other hand, he knows he’s got the Negro vote sown up, so why would he need to show any concern for their pain? Why risk his re-election by being accused of showing favouritism (i.e. sympathy) to people with the same skin colour as him in their time of grief for their murdered son… a grief caused by the imbedded racist attitudes of the “other” people he needs to support him for a second term in office?

The Republican contenders should take a page from Obama’s playbook and call Martin’s parents to offer their condolences. They should also put on a hoody, have a bag of Skittles in one hand and an Iced-tea in the other, take a pic and post it on their Facebook page with the caption: “We’re All Trayvon Martin!” Sure it’s blatantly insincere and strategically opportunistic, but that’s what American politics is all about. It’s about taking advantage of the hot story and manipulating the story line for your own benefit. After the Fluke affair the media was on them, particularly Romney, for not calling Fluke or publicly admonishing Limbaugh, especially after President Obama did so. By calling the Martins, maybe the media… and African-Americans… may finally wake up and realize that “Barack Obama doesn’t care about Black people”. The republicans may even get a few more black votes.

Hmmmm… I doubt it
