This is Texas.  I'm not surprised one bit by that cartoon.
There is light and darkness in the world, to be sure.  However, there's no harm to be had in walking in the shade or shadows.

The cartoon is on the verge of a salient point - Trayvon was a teenage boy, meaning he more than likely has at least some negative points. Where the cartoon goes wrong, of course, is that it shouldn't matter if Trayvon Martin was a sinless, perfect specimen of humanity or a jerk who got straight D's and acted up in class - all that should matter is what he was doing when he got shot.

That toon with Obama crying over Martin's grave...

I bet you two bucks that if Obama had made a comment on a white boy being shot, no one would give a fuck.
Makes me think what if Obama didn't say anything about Martin's death? Something like "George Bush doesn't care about black people" some years ago?

This is almost on the level of the "re-nig" bumper sticker.
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

And on the other side...


Although I'm willing to bet this was made by a conservative to make people who want Zimmerman to be put to ustice look bad.

I'd be more sympathetic if people here didn't act like they knew what they were saying when they were saying something very much wrong.

Doesn't matter who made it, it's stupid.

We called out whoever made the crack about targets on Democrats and if this was made by someone on our side they can kindly take themselves over to the other side.

Ironbite-it's in very poor taste.

Nah, I say we take the imbeciles and assholes from both sides, put them on their own sides, and leave them on a desert island with nothing but a single apple and a pistol between them.  Let nature take its course.
