What would you do if you were a white
man/woman that had your face beaten in by a black 6'4," 300 lbs man on
drugs and had evidence of that fact and not even a day after you shot the
person who did it, not only the community you lived in but the national media
and your Government automatically decreed that the person who did it was the
innocent and you were the guilty party, before all the evidence was even
collected? If that weren't bad enough,
because of that, now you and your supporters have to live in hiding because
you're receiving death threats.
Darren
Wilson supporters in Ferguson have had enough.
Not only are they are receiving death threats, but their family members
are also, to show exactly what their "support" of a "white
man" is getting them.
Supporters
of Darren Wilson — the white police officer who killed 18-year-old black man
Michael Brown — rallied in St. Louis, MO, Saturday, with their de facto
spokeswoman delivering a statement but declining to give her name.
"The
news media has shown a strong bias against Wilson and his supporters."
"Many
of us have received death threats against ourselves and our families,”
“Contrary
to media suggestions we are not affiliated with any hate groups.”
“We will not hide, we will no longer live in
fear.”
“At the end of this statement the media will inevitably ask for my name,” the woman said. “You want my name– my name is Darren Wilson, we are Darren Wilson.”
[applause]

Out of all of the people
in Ferguson, you would think that the black people would be the most
sympathetic and compassionate, because they are the ones that preach
oppression, rush to judgment, wrongful prosecution, racial bias and
lynching based on the color of one's skin.
Oh wait, isn't that what
we have here with Darren Wilson? At no time have we heard that Wilson
ever said, "'N-er', stop or I'll shoot you," "damn thugs always
get away with it," or that he ever had any racial animus or racist
proclivity what-so-ever. So, we don't have an "innocent until proven
guilty" mindset, but we have a "Federal Civil
Rights Case" with
no evidence that it was ever racially motivated, except the one racist ideal
that was created by and propagated by the media and citizens of
Ferguson, now it's "white until proven innocent, no, just lynch his
ass."
Every single person, who is demanding the immediate arrest and prosecution of Darren Wilson, is simply a lawless vigilante that hides behind the faceless, nameless power of the mob. They want to immediately go to the execution of Wilson without the inconvenience of having to through any of the multiple legal hurdles to be overcome to gain a conviction. They are nothing but a mob seeking to trample the judicial process. They are the greatest enemy of justice that I can imagine.
ReplyDeletethe thing that slays me the most, these same people in the 60s were crying "injustice, unfair racial prosecution, this is a lynch mob." We have the angry democrats, but the only thing we are missing are the burning crosses and white hoods.
