baxter has turned into a grade A kneejerk contrarion dipshit. he used to be one of the most level headed and thought inspiring posters on here, bar none. Then he had a skitzo break with reality and has never been the same.
ok so msnbc, foxnews, cnn, all of sanford and plenty of other of municipalities, people like poet, and people familiar with history are all racists.

no I am denying nothing. I am just saying that the people thinking that riots were a possibility was not some extremist racist notion. It was a very mainstream thought and concern by people on all sides.
I was right in the middle of the Rodney King riots, where I managed a restaurant and the cops had us close up 3 hours early at 7:00pm. As I drove home, I could see all those blazes off the 91 Freeway, while carrying my big nine on my front seat. I sure did not want to be another Reginald Denny who had his head caved-in by another thug wantabe, this one named "Football". "FootBall was later convicted of murder, of course maybe he was profiled because he was a Black Mo""""Fu""""............................You are employing a strawman. Isolated "riots" were always a possibility. That there was a likelihood (or a strong likelihood as I should have said) of widespread riots was based on nothing but racism and these clowns were really hoping for a race war. Read sjj's post where he fantasizes about how it would play out. The racists did not reference OWS or Tea Party demonstrations that got out of hand. They referenced the King riots and the reason was obvious. This case was unlike the King case and the connection is based on an insulated view of those riots that pretends the only issue was race.

There are speculations that Trayvon Martin was making a drug deal at that 7/11 store and that he was smoking dope when Zimmer saw him, that 7/11 video sure looked suspicious. Zimmer did say that he saw Trayvon throw away a "cigarette", and there was Marijuana in Trayvon's system, according to the autopsy. Let's face it, Trayvon was a thug wantabe and that is why he attacked Zimmer, trying to act all tough and sheet to impress Rachel, who was on the phone. The web photos of Trayvon holding a gun, and his Marijuana plant shows me that Trayvon might have been a drug dealer, also he may have been part of the burglary ring that was "working" those condos/apartments. Trayvon routinely refereed street fights and he was admittedly into MMA, aka "Ground an Pound". Trayvon was Kicked out of school for 10 days for having Marijuana in his backpack and they also found a bunch of women's jewelry on him, tell me about it. You Pro-Trayvon fools need to wake up and smell the coffee, if there is a trial, all this sheet will come out because Trayvon will then be 18 years of age and not a protected minor no moore. Victory is sweet, Mensa rules, he who laughs last, laughs longest..TOUCHE'
it's not a strawman. I am not talking about isolated riots. the mainstream media were talking about widescale riots, or riots of significant measure that would warrant a mention.
and you are basing this assertion on what? Again, it was all the media was talking about for weeks. Don't act like it was some extremist racist notion, it wasn't. You trying to add modifiers (widespread, isolated,) doesn't change that. The media talked about the possability of riots. Rodney king level was often alluded to.
The only kid here is you....
Trayvon wasn't doing anything wrong and Zimmerman stared at him for over a minute, jumped out of his vehicle and followed him when Trayvon tried to exit the situation. Everyone at that age thinks they are tough and I've seen MULTIPLE old High School friends that use to do hard drugs criticizing Trayvon for weed, when they did much worse.
I use to fist fight and thought it was the way of life because I was Country. I had a pistol when I was 13. I knew fighting was fighting and weapons is the line where the least educated step in the situation. I still fought.
The only difference between me and Trayvon I see is that he smoked pot.
Your entire post just makes you look like a racist moron. I find it funny that even Libertarians hate Trayvon when they fight for Liberty and this exposes Liberty is only important when certain people have it.
I guess Trayvon's thinking was in error and he wasn't as tough as he thought he was.

Great post there kid. Now explain how Trayvons actions got him shot. Explain what Trayvons actions were that caused Zimmerman to stalk him.
Then explain any laws that allow Zimmerman to exit a vehicle and run after someone they don't know is guilty.
Waiting kid.
Stalking is not ok. Talking on the phone in the rain is kiddo.
I think it was parents' plea of no violence that moved people to protest in peace.
These same parents have been very gracious in the face of the jury's decision.
I'm actually surprised there were no major riots.
then you must be a racist according to the dipshit baxter.
Every ethnicity/race can or has rioted, but the facts and history prove that "Blacks" riot moore than the other groups when "they" do not get their way, kind of like spoiled bratty Lib kids. The OJ trial, with their minority jury, is a good example of a riot in the making, except that jury "did their thing" and used jury nulification of the facts to prevent a riot.So have you offered a reason for expecting riots?

If "they" did riot, they would get the sheet kicked out of them, so that is not a solution. The real solution here is to bust up the street gangs, and that would really help African Americans, then we can tackle the Education problem. Zimmerman trial witness Rachel Jentile was not a stupid person, but she sounded that way because she spoke using Black Ebonics. Way back on the Old Board, I posted how the Oakland California School Board wanted to teach Ebonics in school, all true, luckily that was "shot" down by the higher-ups.Thank you very much. Suck on that Grind.
