“What If Trayvon Were White?
By Wayne Allyn Root
August 1, 2013”
“I’m Wayne Allyn Root for Personal Liberty. A couple of weeks ago, Barack Obama held a press conference to discuss a local court case. Highly unusual. Actually, unheard of. Why on Earth would the President get involved in a local court case? Obama just can’t let the George Zimmerman/Trayvon Martin case go because he is obsessed by race (They use it as a club! Everything they do not like or agree with is racist! Someone ought to tell them about the boy calling wolf when no wolf was there until ….— my addition).
Obama asked the key question, ‘What if Trayvon was white?’ So I’ve set out here to examine that very question. What if Trayvon were white and George Zimmerman were black? Obama is right: Everything would have been different about the case (Absolutely!—my addition).
If Trayvon were white, there would have been no national headlines. No one outside Sanford, Florida, would have even heard about the case. A black Zimmerman would never have been charged with a crime. And if there had been a trial and a black Zimmerman had been found not guilty, you can bet your last dollar that Obama’s Justice Department would not be considering civil rights charges (True!— my addition). If they did, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would call it double jeopardy and a modern-day lynching of an innocent black man. That’s right; they’d be marching in the streets to defend the black Zimmerman (Of course they would! Skin color is their defining criterion!—my addition).
The reality is that white Americans are killed by black Americans every day, but the national media never report it because they are afraid of being called racist (True! Or they are Black racists! Yes, there are Blacks who are racist just as there are whites who are racists! Most whites are not racist and most Blacks are not racist regardless of the race baiters. If most whites were racist, we would still have slavery and segregation! Such poor reasoning power!—my addition). I can’t remember ever seeing or hearing race mentioned on the national news unless it is a white-on-black crime. And then, of course, it is the centerpiece of the story and always blamed on racism.
By the way, Zimmerman isn’t white. He is Hispanic. But liberals never let facts get in the way of a good story. That’s why the media and the race-baiters have coined a new phrase: ‘white Hispanic.’ Sounds like a new race was invented just to justify liberals’ use of the word ‘racism’ to discuss this case.
The same fear of being called racist is exactly the reason the national media never reports black-on-black crime, which has become a national tragedy. Cities like Detroit, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Obama’s Chicago (True for Chicago!—my addition) are young black male killing fields. They are more dangerous for black Americans than serving in Afghanistan or Iraq. Why don’t the national media report on this tragedy? Why hasn’t Obama ever held a press conference to discuss that crisis? It is certainly much more devastating to the black community (But, it does not fit their criterion to make all Blacks victims! Barack Hussein Obama who was raised by a white mother and then a white grandmother and grandfather! Who attended a private high school in Hawaii and Harvard Law School! Such a special ghetto experience!—my addition).
Could Obama name any of the black murder victims in Chicago that were shot by other blacks during the Zimmerman trial? I’ll bet not (Of course NOT! It is not part of his agenda!—my addition). Why are all those young dead black men that also look like Obama’s son any less important? Is it because their deaths don’t stir up racial anger or resentment? Is it because none of their deaths move his agenda forward?
Here’s another difference: If the victim, Martin, were white, there’d be no involvement by Sharpton, Jackson or the Congressional Black Caucus, nor tweets by liberal Hollywood celebrities, nor protests across America. When was the last time any of the race-baiters weighed in on a murder involving a white American? When was the last time a white person being murdered resulted in protests or rioting? Can you name one?
Have white people ever protested en masse about a black accused criminal getting found not guilty? Did the O.J. Simpson verdict cause rioting by white Americans?
Here is something else we know: If Martin had been white, the President of the United States would never have gotten involved in a local court case. Never. So why did he get involved here? The primary reason is to create a distraction from the tragedy of his failed policies and never-ending scandals. He is doing all he can to keep Americans from focusing on the sinking U.S. economy; the unthinkable national debt; the record number of Americans on welfare and food stamps; the millions of people left jobless by his anti-business policies; the bankruptcy of Detroit (which was ruled 100 percent by Democrats for more than 50 years); the murder, mayhem and out-of-control gun violence of his hometown Chicago (with the strictest gun laws in the Nation); the unraveling of Obamacare; the Internal Revenue Service scandal; the Benghazi, Libya, scandal; the Associate Press spying scandal; the James Rosen spying scandal; the Kathleen Sebilius extortion scandal; the Operation Fast and Furious scandal; and wars and unrest all over the Mideast.
The reality is Obama is using Martin to change the subject. He’s hiding behind Martin’s ‘murder’ to get the media (The mass media does not want to talk about Obama’s many scandals either!—my addition) and voters’ minds off his own scandals and failures. Just as he has done repeatedly, Obama is changing the conversation to save his own skin. Martin is Obama’s W.M.D. (weapon of mass distraction). He’ll exploit Martin as long as he possibly can, so he doesn’t have to explain his own failures and scandals. As Saul Alinsky taught Obama, ‘The ends justify the means.’
Don’t forget the IRS scandal just happened to deepen on the very day Obama chose to bring up Martin at an impromptu press conference. We found out that Obama’s political appointee was at the very center of the IRS scandal and that he met with Obama only two days before the IRS harassment against conservatives started.
Another obvious difference is if the victim were white, Obama would never have weighed in about ‘white angst’ or ‘white pain (Or whites being attacked by Blacks!—my addition).’ Should our President be feeling the pain of only one race of Americans? What about the rest of us? Don’t our anger or feelings count (Of course NOT! Whites are the privileged class according to Obama! I guess since he is half white and lived in a white world, he should know! He knows everything else!—my addition)? Isn’t Obama the President of all Americans, of all races? Is this President trying to bring us together or purposely tear us apart?
In the end though, Obama is right. If Martin were white, this would all be different—100 percent different. And if Obama were a white President and he weighed in on a local black-on-white murder, he’d be called racist, ignorant and insensitive, and he would be drummed out of office by the liberal media, race-baiters and the NAACP.
You know the definition of a racist, don’t you? Anyone winning an argument with a liberal. I’m Wayne Allyn Root for PersonalLiberty.com. See you next week. Same time, same place. God bless America.”
