Trayvon Martin Case Evokes Reaction from Extremists, White and Black

Trayvon Martin Case Evokes Reaction from Extremists, White and Black
Posted in Black Separatist, White Nationalism by Ryan Lenz on March 26, 2012


The killing of Trayvon Martin has aroused the passions of extremists
on both sides of the racial divide, with some blaming civil rights
leaders and the media for the controversy – and black separatist
leaders suggesting vigilante justice for the neighborhood watch
volunteer who shot the unarmed 17-year-old in Florida.

Joseph Farah at WorldNet Daily, the archconservative website that has
tirelessly attacked President Obama's citizenship, dismissed the
activism surrounding the African-American teen's killing as bald
opportunism. "[W]hen the race hustlers like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson
and race hustler-in-chief Barack Obama started exploiting, I began to
think we were being conned once again, by (the) vicious, biased,
America-hating, leftist-controlled press," Farah wrote on Sunday.

Farah went on to cite the case of a white teen set on fire by two
black teens last month in Kansas City. "This is a real hate crime,"
Farah said, "the kind you won't likely see reported on the national
media and the kind you won't likely hear race hustling politicians
like Sharpton, Jackson and Obama talking about."

White nationalist Kyle Rogers, a board member of the white nationalist
Council of Conservative Citizens, also attacked the media. "Almost all
of the news items about George Zimmerman and Trayvon contains [sic] a
combination of false statements, opinions presented as facts,
transparent distortions, and a complete absence of some of some of the
most relevant details," Rogers wrote on Saturday. "Is the media really
reporting the news, or is this classic agitation/propaganda to advance
a political agenda?"

Civil rights leaders also were criticized by Jesse Lee Peterson, a
black, anti-gay preacher who once thanked God for slavery. He said
their actions are not about justice. "It's about getting even with
whites and gaining political power," he wrote in a March 22 news
release. "This is black hatred of white people and a result of more
than fifty years of brainwashing by racist civil-rights leaders."

Meanwhile, Louis Farrakhan, head of the Nation of Islam, said in a
message to his followers on Twitter, "Where there is no justice, there
will be no peace. Soon the law of retaliation may very well be
applied."

Even more bluntly, New Black Panther Party leader Mikhail Muhammad
announced over the weekend he was starting a "Wanted: Dead or Alive"
campaign to bring justice for Trayvon. He offered a $10,000 bounty for
the capture of George Zimmerman, the Hispanic man who shot Martin,
according to the Orlando Sentinel.

When asked whether he was inciting violence," Muhammad replied, "An
eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."

The shooting in Sanford, Fla., occurred on Feb. 26 after Zimmerman
spotted Martin wearing a hooded sweatshirt returning from a store to
buy Skittles and iced tea. The Orlando Sentinel reported today that
authorities say witnesses have corroborated "much of" Zimmerman's
claim that he was left bloody and battered after Martin punched him
and slammed his head into the sidewalk.
