Nope. It doesn't go out the window, your wishful thinking and willful blindness notwithstanding. YOU would love to change the subject to self-exonerate.
FACT: Conservatives have for SO LONG stirred up racial hatred towards racial minorities (especially Blacks) such that even people like Zimmerman learn to distance themselves from the "Latino" part of their own heritage and become "honorary whites" (like Herman Cain).
How? By demonstrating their animus towards Blacks (or Latinos etc.). This is a well-researched phenomena and includes anti-Black behavior by White immigrant groups in the past too. It's NOT something imagined or made up by "Lefties."
The "profile/image" of the "Black Threat" has been engraved in the subconscious minds of people who don't even know Black people or live around them and have no objective basis for fear or perceiving them as threats. Why? BECAUSE the NEGATIVE ASSOCIATIONS made about young Black males (including their mode of dress) have been so media-hyped that their very Physical Presence has been made Synonymous with "dangerous," and "threatening."
Again, well-researched.It may not comport with your political ideology, but True nonetheless.
Also, White Conservatives are spreading "doctored" photos (as in the techniques Breitbart "perfected") to DELIBERATELY and MALICIOUSLY portray TRAYVON in a FALSE AND NEGATIVE LIGHT to both perpetuate the “BLACK THREAT” racial-profile AND INTENTIONALLY INFLICT DISTRESS on Trayvon's family and Black folks in general.
Funny you chose NOT to respond to that since your in "self-exoneration" mode.
