Did Trayvon Martin have a criminal record?
Yes he does Hurley’s detectives, all of them veterans with excellent records, told a different story under oath when questioned by Internal Affairs. They knew the shell game was about to be exposed upon first learning that Martin was one of their students and outside agencies would be requesting his records. “Oh, God, oh, my God, oh, God,” one major reportedly said when first looking at Martin’s data. He realized that Martin had been suspended twice already that school year for offenses that should have gotten him arrested – once for getting caught with a burglary tool and a dozen items of female jewelry, the second time for getting caught with marijuana and a marijuana pipe. In each case, the case file on Martin was fudged to make the crime less serious than it was. As one detective told IA, the arrest statistics coming out of Martin’s school, Michael Krop Senior, had been “quite high,” and the detectives “needed to find some way to lower the stats.” This directive allegedly came from Hurley. “Chief Hurley, for the past year, has been telling his command staff to lower the arrest rates,” confirmed another high-ranking detective.
Mexican white boy questions?
i have to complete a summer reading task for school and the questions make no sence to me i provided the questions below please answer them with the question (70 points best answer) 1. Danny feels too brown to be a part of the baseball team at his private school and too white to be a member of his Mexican father's family and community. Why does he let the color of his skin prevent him from being a member of either community? 2. Danny's ability to play baseball is remarkable by any standard. What pushes him to practice hours a day, striving to be the best he can be? Why does he choke on the pitcher's mound? Why is it so important for him to show the team at his private school how good he is? 3. The showdown between Uno and Uncle Ray is an important event in establishing Danny's reputation. What is at stake? What does Danny gain from the exchange? What, if anything, does Uno lose? How does the showdown shift the balance of power among all of the guys? 4. The relationship between fathers and sons is examined through Uno and his father and Danny and his father. How are the boys' relationships with their fathers different? How are they the same? Does either Danny or Uno come to accept the relationships with their fathers? In what ways do they accept or reject their fathers? 5. Sophia asks Uno, "We all start out believing we can do anything. But at some point we lose it. Why is that?" (p.212) This is true for all of the characters in the book and many people in real life. What happens in life that causes people to lose sight of their dreams?
Wouldn't it have been so much better if Trevon Martin and George Zimmerman both minded there own business?
zimmerman should have minded his own business
Why do black people always try to play race card on every issue?
Well, I'm black, and I'm usually very hesitant to bring up the race card. And to be honest, it's quite ridiculous of you to accuse all blacks of using the race card. Have you met all blacks? I certainly know quite a few, and we certainly don't. But the truth is that many things in society are racially motivated. Race does play a part in one's general life experience. Yes things have evolved quite a bit, but there is still a way to go. And the fact remains, that someone sees a black person in a hoodie, they are more likely to feel somewhat threatened than if they see pale skin in a hoodie. And the truth is that, there are many events in history, even recent history which support this claim. I'm not saying that this factor has anything to do with this case. I'm really not even getting into my opinion of the case. But that is where many blacks are coming from. There is indeed a struggle which the black community still faces in America, and only someone foolish wouldn't see that. Of course it's gotten far better, but one still exists. There are still ills of America's past which still persists when it comes to racial tension. I don't think whites owe blacks anything other than to be treated with respect, as we should treat them. And to be honest, I find it interesting the way I see so many whites complaining about how blacks feel whites owe them something, when really, so many blacks couldn't really care about less about the things whites do, so long as blacks are respected. So be careful about your generalizations you make. Those are quite offensive.
Did you know you can be a beneficiary of racism without realizing it and without being a racist?
The reaction to Ta-Nehisi Coates' magisterial essay ("The Case for Reparations") on the lingering effects of American racism is polarized around people's reaction to the word "reparations." But much of the story he tells is about something simpler, and completely uncontroversial: the power of compound interest. You might remember, as a kid, getting this problem on a test: Would you rather have $10,000 per day for 30 days or a penny that doubled in value every day for 30 days? The answer is you want the penny that doubles in value every day. If you take the $10,000 you end up with $300,000 after the first month. Take the penny and you end with about $5 million. What Coates shows is that white America has, for hundreds of years, used deadly force, racist laws, biased courts and housing segregation to wrest the power of compound interest for itself. The word he keeps coming back to is "plunder." White America built its wealth by stealing the work of African-Americans and then, when that became illegal, added to its wealth by plundering from the work and young assets of African-Americans. And then compound interest worked its magic. http://www.vox.com/2014/5/23/5743056/you-can-be-a-beneficiary-of-racism-even-if-you-re-not-a-racist
Why to liberals keep denying that trannies are pedophiles?
Paul Luckman (Wikipedia calls him Nicole Louise Pearce) committed the most unthinkable and brutal crime in recent history. He is a tranny. Then there is the 50 year old man pretending to be a 6 year old girl.
