JIM TREACHER: The George Zimmerman Narrative Just Got Even Tougher To Maintain.
Why does it matter that George Zimmerman has black ancestors and was raised in a racially integrated household? I have no idea. Maybe it doesn’t. But then, I’m not the one who’s spent the last month insisting he was motivated by racism. I’m just curious about how the press is going to describe him now. White Hispanic*, with a footnote? They’re the ones who think his racial background is a crucial detail. They’re the ones who’ve been working overtime to paint him as a racist.
I don’t know for sure if Zimmerman is a murderer, or a victim who fought back, or something in-between. And neither does anybody else. The loudest voices just have what they think they already know about him, and everything else is just their frantic attempts to reinforce that belief.
Who else has to be hurt over this? How much more blood has to be shed? When are we going to stop listening to guys who pay the bills with race-baiting?
What the hell is wrong with everybody?
I blame Obama.
