BET should be ashamed of themselves. [W:44]

How am I being dishonest?

By asking a question that my post already answered, in an effort to falsely portrait my viewpoint and avoid having to actually address what I said.

"You find BET talking about Trayvon Martin as a person and/or a human being sad and disturbing?"​




The second anyone thinks of Trayvon as a person and voices it, you go off on them, sometimes starting threads like this. Examples include:

That's more bull**** pal.



I am probably missing a whole lot, but you get the idea.

Use your imagination just like you always do and I'm sure you can come up with more bull**** to prop up your flawed beliefs with.
 
Since the show has yet to air, it may be a bit premature to assume too much about their positions. It may very well be nothing but a jumping off point to discuss broader issues blacks are encountering having little to nothing to do with Zimmerman specifically.

How about you watch the program before deciding what it's content and intentions are? And deciding that the entire black community "unconditionally" supports Trayvon "regardless" of what really happened.


No I disconnected my cable.

I'm just wondering if he was planning to watch, and if not, who cares? Free speech. Cope with it.

I just watched the special, and I stand 100% behind everything I said... This was exactly what I was led to believe it would be based on the previews I saw.

BET should be ashamed of themselves for not only airing this one sided attempt to skew public opinion against George Zimmerman just days before the trial, but doing so based on 1 thing, and 1 thing only... Because Martin is black, and Zimmerman is not.

This is a disgrace and explains to me why race relations have advanced so little in the last 50 years.

I saw one of the most unbiased, objective news reports of all time.
 
There was an article about it and the link was posted in the Martin/Zimmerman forum.


Really? Where is the link? Which thread specifically? No one else seems to have seen it. Maybe it does not exist.

Wow... I don't think you realize just how badly you've discredited yourself with that statement Jack.
 
Wow, looking foolish once wasn't enough for you I see.

You are the one who is trying to make a racial issue out of Trayvon Martin's murder.
 
Wow... I don't think you realize just how badly you've discredited yourself with that statement Jack.
I doubt the person even cares.
 
And?
What does that matter to you?

I just find it curious that black conservatives are always trying to play the race card - in favor of whites.

What about the guy that made Trayvon Martin targets? I'm afraid racism is alive and well in America.

That isn't apparent.
So maybe that is just how you view things. In a distorted reality sort of way.

That is your prejudiced view of the targets.
 
It's America... nothing matters more than race. Well, except maybe money.

People should just stop watching 90% of what's on television and allow their brains to re-adjust to reality.

Exactly how does that make Martin an innocent victim and George Zimmerman guilty of murder Pete?
