What if Trayvon Martin Had been White?

There's a slight improvement here over other Republican op-eds on the same topic, because Wayne Allyn Root shows some concern for white war crime victims, but he still shows too much concern for black crime victims, and he's wrong about the reason why the MSM don't report on black crime. It's not because they fear being called "racist," but because they support black criminals. Also, "Obama" isn't talking about Trayvon Martin to distract the American people from his many failures, but because "Obama" is waging a racist war of annihilation against whites, and race hoaxes are his favorite propagandistic weapon.

 

In 2007, he had no failures to distract people's attention from, yet he promoted the Jena Hoax ("Jena justice") in his first presidential campaign. And as he recently bragged, early in his career in Illinois, he promoted the racial profiling hoax (though he didn't put it that way) by sponsoring an "anti-racial profiling" bill that was passed and signed into law. For "Obama," race hoaxes are not "distractions," but business as usual.

What if Trayvon was white?

President Obama weighed in on a local court case — again. He asked, "what if Trayvon was white?" I believe the answer is clear.

If Trayvon was white, there would have been no national headlines. No one outside Sanford, Florida would have even heard about the case. A black George Zimmerman would never have been charged with a crime. And if there had been a trial, and a black Zimmerman was found "Not Guilty," you can bet your last dollar that Obama's Justice Department would not be considering "civil rights charges." If they did, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would call it "double jeopardy" and "a modern day lynching of an innocent black man."

The reality is that white Americans are killed by black Americans every day, but the national media never report it because they are afraid of being called "racist." I can't remember ever seeing or hearing race mentioned on the national news unless it is a white-on-black crime. And then, it is the centerpiece of the story, and always blamed on "racism."

 By the way, George Zimmerman isn't white. He is Hispanic. But liberals never let facts get in the way of a good story. That's why the media and the race baiters have coined a new phrase: "white Hispanic."

The same fear of being called "racist" is exactly the reason the national media never reports black on black crime, which has become a national tragedy. Cities like Detroit, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Obama's Chicago are "killing fields" for young black men. They are more dangerous for black Americans than Afghanistan or Iraq. Why doesn't the national media report on this tragedy? Why hasn't Obama ever held a press conference to discuss that crisis? It is certainly much more devastating to the black community.

Could Obama name any of the black murder victims in Chicago that were shot by other blacks during the Zimmerman trial? Why are those young men that look like Obama's son any less important? Is it because their deaths don't stir up racial anger or resentment?

Here's another difference — if the victim were white there would be no involvement by Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, the Congressional Black Caucus, or tweets by liberal Hollywood celebrities, or protests across America. When was the last time any of the race baiters weighed in on a murder involving a white American? When was the last time a white person being murdered resulted in protests or rioting? Can you name one? Have white people ever protested en mass about a black accused criminal getting found "Not Guilty?" Did the OJ verdict cause rioting by white Americans?

Here is something else we know: If Trayvon had been white, the President of the United States would never have gotten involved in a local court case. Never. So, why did he get involved here? The primary reason is to create a distraction from the tragedy of his failed policies and never ending scandals. He is doing all he can to keep Americans from focusing on the sinking U.S. economy, the unthinkable national debt, the record number of Americans on welfare and food stamps, the millions left jobless, the bankruptcy of Detroit, the murder and mayhem of Chicago, the unraveling of Obamacare, the IRS scandal, the Benghazi scandal, the AP spying scandal, the James Rosen spying scandal, the Kathleen Sebelius extortion scandal, the Fast & Furious scandal, and wars and unrest all over the Middle East.
