How is the acquittal of Jose Ines Garcia Zarate different from acquittal of George Zimmerman? Why is Trump so outraged?
George Zimmerman is a white man (actually, he identified himself as a “white Hispanic”) charged with killing a black teen-age boy. Garcia Zarate is a Mexican man charged with killing a white woman.Zimmerman claimed that he killed Trayvon Martin in self-defense. Garcia Zarate claimed that he never aimed the gun at Kate Steinle and didn’t deliberately fire the fatal shot. Rather, the gun went off by accident and the bullet ricocheted and struck Steinle.Trump is outraged by the verdict because he’s a racist, particularly obsessed with white blonde women being victimized by men of color. Had he been born in the Deep South late in the nineteenth century, he might have joined the Ku Klux Klan, where he would have found kindred spirits. Remember, he took out full-page ads in New York City newspapers demanding the death penalty for the five black and Hispanic men arrested for raping the “Central Park Jogger” before they had even been tried, much less convicted. Even now that DNA evidence has not only exonerated them but identified the real rapist, he continues to insist that the five men are guilty.Garcia Zarate has never been accused of a sex crime, but in Trump’s mind he’s a sexual predator who came to the United States specifically to prey on attractive blondes. This is in keeping with his claim that Mexico “doesn’t send its best people” to the United States, specifically calling Mexicans drug mules and rapists.He also sees the acquittal as a personal affront since he campaigned on an anti-undocumented immigrant platform and promised to build a border wall, which he insists would have kept Garcia Zarate out of the United States. But since Garcia Zarate has repeatedly been deported only to return, he may be more resourceful than Trump gives him credit for.
Is 'RUSH' a Jewish Surname?
Rush Name Meaning and History English: topographic name for someone who lived among rushes, from Middle English rush (a collective singular, Old English rysc), or perhaps an occupational name for someone who wove mats, baskets, and other articles out of rushes. Irish: reduced Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Ruis ‘descendant of Ros’, a personal name perhaps derived from ros ‘wood’. In Connacht it has also been used as a translation of Ó Luachra (see Loughrey). Irish: Anglicized form (translation) of Gaelic Ó Fuada, ‘descendant of Fuada’ a personal name meaning ‘hasty’, ‘rushing’ (see Foody). Altered spelling of German Rüsch or Rusch (see Rusch) or Rosch. and Rusch Name Meaning and History topographic name from Middle High German, Middle Low German rusch ‘rush’, or a habitational name from a place named with this word. nickname from Middle Low German rusch ‘quick’, ‘hasty’. (Rüsch): see Ruesch. All of the above from Dictionary of American Family Names, Oxford University Press, ISBN 0-19-508137-4 via Ancestry. There could have been Jewish people living near or working with rushes, or who were hasty, back in the middle ages when they started using surnames. The 1881 Canadian census asked religion. It is free, from the Mormons: http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/f... It is the only free census that has religion. I looked at people named Rush (born 1835 - 1845, to get heads of households; if Mom & Pop are Jewish, Catholic or Protestant, the kids will be too, generally). One was a Deist. The rest (I just looked at 10) were Protestant or Catholic. That doesn't mean there wasn't a Jewish Rush there, though.
Why do liberals care more about thought crime than actual crime?
@undisclosed desires Sorry but thoughts are not crimes. Are you going to start measuring peoples brainwaves? Perhaps it isn't the thoughts that are the root of the problems but instead the forced integration of disparate peoples. The vast majority of wars throughout human history have been as a result of ethnic conflict. Apes are tribal and humans are just hairless apes. My aim is to achieve relative peace through things that are actually acheivable with reference to reality rather than hoping that human nature and thousands of years of evolution will be overturned by well intentioned legislation or moral grandstanding. Humans also share 90% dna with earthworms so the 99.9% statistic is meaningless outside of context.
When is being politically correct wrong?
When a deferred political correctness demand is used to avoid someone’s own responsibilityWe have quite a lot of this in the Netherlands at this moment where groups of dark skinned people use a children’s saga (Black Pete or ‘Zwarte Piet’) to project their own failure to forge ahead in society. Under the misguided label “racism”, they have created a line of thought that Black Pete is some kind of black face that has a deeper sense to imprint the message that anyone who has a dark complexion is a servant and stupid. It is historically completely incorrect (Black Pete is modelled on a Moorish page and has a acrobat like role to entertain children and bestow gifts on them). But this line of thought serves as a public relations model and a potential value proposition (somehow, the Dutch should reimburse all current black people for their 17-th century slavery ancestors). This discussion is widely perceived in the Netherlands as a way to avoid their own responsibility for attending school, applying for a job and turning up in time to fulfill the requirements.Another example (just in this week) is perceived racial profiling by the police. In the Netherlands, Moroccan young man are overrepresented in all the wrong statistics in the police. From traffic violation to harassing women, from school drop-outs to gang violence, they are (percentual) leaders. This week, the police stopped a Moroccan young male rapper in a very expensive car for a check-up. Although he was the legal owner of the car, and duly send on his way, they cried foul claiming racism. When the police would be looking for tax fraud suspects, they would probably raid the country club. When the police investigates Ajax football hooligans, they would start in Amsterdam. And when a 23-year old Moroccan makes an ostentatious display of himself in an expensive BMW, he shouldn’t be surprised the police asks for credentials. the root cause is their overrepresentation in crime statics.
