Here is an interesting article from www.thepoliticalcesspool.org about the latest on the Trayvon Martin case. This follows this previous post about it. This follows this post about the Knoxville Horror case and this post about a white person who was burned by a black gang from http://nicholasstixuncensored.blogspot.com/ and this post about the Congressional Black Caucus that you can contact and you can read the very interesting book that is being shown HERE!Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman: Reaffirming the Anti-White Religion
The following column was written by my good friend, Dr. Kevin MacDonald, a frequent guest here on The Political Cesspool Radio Program. In my opinion, this is the single best article written to date on the Martin/Zimmerman story.
You have to be living under a rock not to notice the deluge of media coverage of the Trayvon Martin-George Zimmerman affair. The accounts I have seen inevitably emphasize Blacks as victims and implicitly at least, the message reaffirms the narrative of Blacks as innocent victims of Whites. This of course flies in the face of data on crime showing that Blacks are much more likely to victimize Whites than the reverse, with the media bending over backwards to prevent any indication that race was a factor. I don’t recall any national media outrage recently when two Black teenagers set fire to a White teenager after dousing him with gasoline, even though they said they did it because he was a “white boy.” This happened only a few weeks ago. Rather than the wall-to-wall coverage seen in the Trayvon Martin case, there was only a brief and fleeting mention in the New York Daily News and no mention at all in the prestigious national media. It doesn’t fit the narrative that the media feasts on and promotes. No angst from Obama; no Justice Department investigation of a possible hate crime.
Indeed, it’s quite common for the media not to identify the race of non-White perpetrators. And somehow Mr. Zimmerman’s Latino background also slips into irrelevance.
Also virtually unmentioned is that Martin and Zimmerman were fighting, with at least one witness emphasizing that Martin had the upper hand just before the fatal shot. Although Zimmerman seems to have been overzealous in his scrutiny of possible criminals in his community, he may indeed have been “standing his ground” once the encounter escalated into violence. Indeed, the Orlando Sentinel reports that the police are sticking with the version that Martin was the aggressor.
Given all this, it will be very interesting to see how this all plays out. The message of the poor, defenseless Black kid buying Skittles is turning into the thug who was suspended because of drug use at his school and who went out of his way to attack Zimmerman and was pounding his head into the concrete.
The main take-home message thus far, however, is the massive media overkill designed to reinforce the fundamental premise of the new dispensation: Non-Whites as victims of evil Whites—perhaps the most pervasive mantra (in Bob Whitaker’s sense) promoted by the mass media. In all societies, elites reinforce their power by interpreting events in a way that upholds and reinforces the fundamental ideology of the society. In times past, religious figures interpreted events from the perspective of their religious beliefs, and because of their power to disseminate their views to their congregations, it helped reinforce their religious beliefs. Back when America was a self-consciously White country, the media reinforced the image of courageous, brilliant, inventive Whites. The media deluge that greeted Charles Lindbergh when he accomplished his trans-Atlantic flight in 1927 doubtless produced a huge upsurge of national pride and an implicit sense that Whites were uniquely talented and creative (in inventing airplanes) and adventurous in embarking on a very dangerous mission.
But now the media goes into overdrive pretty much only when the message is that Whites are evil or, as with the election of Obama, that America is at last shedding its White identity (and none too soon). The main source of information in today’s society is the mass media which is controlled by an elite that is hostile to the traditional people and culture of America. Events like this, as seen through the lens of the media, serve to reinforce the current multi-cultural zeitgeist which is based on the premise that White people have no right to assert their interests and identity as Whites except when, as in this case, White identity is linked in the media to unjustified violence against non-Whites or some other evil.
The anti-White establishment will use this event to do whatever they can to advance their larger agenda. There have already been calls for repeal of “stand your ground” laws as inherently “racist“—another mantra endlessly repeated by the media. (Actually, the logic is impeccable: If Blacks are far more likely to attack Whites than the reverse, then they are more likely to be victims of “stand your ground” actions.) And I don’t think it’s a coincidence that today’s LATimes features an op-ed by Gregory Rodriguez arguing that free speech should be curtailed in the interests of managing diversity.
The scary thing about the new religion is that it is hell-bent on legislating itself into permanence by enacting police state controls that would reinforce the already pervasive informal controls that threaten Whites with loss of livelihood if they publicly stray from affirming the multicultural dogma. After all, with such a morally uplifting ideal, anything is permissible.

Although Zimmerman seems to have been overzealous in his scrutiny of possible criminals in his community, he may indeed have been “standing his ground” once the encounter escalated into violence. Indeed, the Orlando Sentinel reports that the police are sticking with the version that Martin was the aggressor.
Police sources say Martin was the aggressor on Feb. 26, knocking Zimmerman to the ground with a single punch and then climbing on top of the 28-year-old neighborhood watch captain and slamming the back of his head into the ground. Police say this account, given by Zimmerman, is supported by eyewitnesses, according to the Sentinel’s report.The above report also indicates that Martin was suspended from school because he was found with an empty baggie for marijuana, a violation of the school’s zero tolerance for drugs policy.
One such witness reportedly told police that he saw Martin on top of Zimmerman, striking the man, while Zimmerman cried out for help. The attack left Zimmerman bloodied, police sources told the Sentinel, and led him to fire at Martin in self-defense.
Police say Zimmerman was bleeding from the nose, had a fat lip and confirm that the back of his head was cut. He received first aid at the scene but refused to go to the hospital and received medical treatment the following day, according to the Sentinel’s sources. (see ”Trayvon Martin case: Martin was the aggressor, police sources say.“
