Trayvon Martin's Legacy: Maybe Blacks Will Start Voting

A wise man looks upon men as he does on horses; all their comparisons of title, wealth, and place, he consider but as harness.

Huh?

Consider 95% of blacks voted for Obama; it is quite clear they are voting, and along racial lines.

Could this article be anymore self-serving?

SORRY LUKE

The best Legacy for theTrayvon tradegy would occur if AL & JESSE and You ... would

start a real conversation in the Balck Community about Black on Black violence & killings ...

Where is Your or Al or Jesse's condemnation of the FACT that 90% of the killings of Blacks involve Black on Black violence ...

Everyday in major cities across the nation Blacks are killing Black without any outcry from

the "Leaders" of the Black community ...

Where are YOU ... where is YOUR voice about the recent DRIVE BY

that left 2 dead and many injured ? I have not seen you speak out ...

YOU have this forum to express your opinion ... well get it together ...

Work to make a diiference in your Community ... SPEAK UP and demand change

IDENTIFY THE REAL PROBLEM ... that would be the best Legacy for Trayvon

G-D bless George Zimmerman!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!All black thugs must be put in jail for life without parole!!!!!You steal, you lose a hand.You kill, you lose your life.Stop rampant black crime, as they say in the 'hood, "by any means necessary!!!!!"

If the violent black murderers keep killing each other off at unprecedented rates there won't be no mo' niggas to vote for obamy anyway.

The real legacy of Trayvon Martin will be the millions made by his parents on trademarked T-shirt sales.

Oh, so that is why the NBC producer made Zimmerman and this case a "Hate Crime" against a black man. Thank you to the writer of this article who clarified the questions everybody is asking. Why an NBC producer will do something like that? Why the media keep showing the photo of a very much younger and innocent Treyvon? Why the president got involved in this when so many other black kids are being kill everyday?. Now we know, because this is an election year and the media and NBC are in bed with Obama, that's why. Because you all want to blow this out of proportion to make ALL THE BLACKS in this country move their creazy a#@ and vote in Novemember for Obama.

Now everything it's clear. Thank writer.

you are right on

racism will not go away. It is not designed that way. equality is not sharing power, it is taking power, which blacks are currently incapable of doing as observed in the trayvon, OJ and rodney king events. At best they will have more opportunities to loot. eventually all white people will leave black populated areas and they can fend for themselves. as soon as they stop shooting eachother.

Blacks should all vote if they have ID so there is no cheating. They should start their own party and vote for people who will properly represent them, not bribe them with promises that never are fulfilled. They need enterprise zones, excellent charter schools, great trade schools, and opportunity to succeed. They sure as hell will not get this from the democratic party who wishes to enslave the black vote. Blacks have to take care of themselves, their families, and their neighborhoods to earn economic success and respect from every race.

way to go Uncle Luke!!!!!!

I don't care if they want to vote. I say if they have ID and they are who their suppose be and have the right to vote, let them vote.I've had to show ID for voting for the last 40 years and that's the way it has to stay. BRING YOUR ID!NO ID, YOU CAN NOT VOTE! NO CHEATERS!!!!!!!!!!

Trayvon has no legacy. He was a nice kid when he was 12 years old, at 17 he turned into a thug who tried to beat a craker up and got killed. Oh well, lifes a beach.

I only sometimes agree with Mr. Cambell but on this voting essay I am 100% on board!

Well Uncle Luke, where's your article regarding black on black crime in the Miami community? 15 year old girl was killed in her bed last night due to a drive by, and another drive by in the same neighborhood at a funeral last week, killing 2 and injuring 14. Not enough publicity for those two huh?

The other thing that bothered me was the fact that the media hijacked the whole story to suit their needs. Perfect example is this article attempting to connect this tragedy to voting for Obama to prevent this kind of thing from happening. That to me is inconsiderate and self serving.

This situation really bothered me. This guy Zimmerman had a right to protect himself however he should have been carrying a Taser not a handgun. He is not a cop only a neighborhood watch volunteer. Had this been the case Travon would still be alive. Because of Zimmerman's poor decision causing a death of a young kid I would like for him to learn a lesson and do some time. This way some justice is served and a lot of people are satisfied.

Bottom Line, Mr. Martin would be alive today if He would have kept his hands to himself. People need to learn that they can not Go-Off the wall and start hitting people, Here is an example. In the last six months in Broward County Florida there has been (5) Different Transit Bus Driver's attacked by Young Black Youth's and these drivers were all in there 50s and 60s in age. You can't tell me that every driver provoked these attacks. This is to all the Black Parents in this Country, Please Please talk to your Children about keeping there hands to themselves and teach them it's wrong to do that.

When is Obama going to say, "If I had a son, he would be just like Marion Barry"?

Maybe if Zimmerman had minded his own business .. nobody would've died that day.

*egregious!

Sadly, in Florida it is too late. The politicians the African American community failed to go out and defeat have now passed the most aggregious voter suppression laws in the country. Jackson and Sharpton can't hold voter registration drives. That's now against the law.

A joke! You had a great leader in Malcolm X. He was killed by his people. (Read about X. Don't watch the movie). You chose Martin Luther King... A religious leader! A joke! You have a respected, well liked, and most importantly liked and accepted by the whites, leader in Bill Cosby. You kicked him out. You choose Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. When he finishes his term(s) as President, if Obama criticizes you, learn from it. Listen to him. He may be your last chance. Like him or not, Obama stands to be the best spokesman you have ever had. For a race of people not wanting to be stereotyped, you have done some incredibly stereotypically stupid things. Most importantly, don't listen to Luke!

To understand the Trayvon Martin vs. George Zimmerman case, you need to listen to the recorded phone call made by the neighbor to 911. The fatal shot is heard during this call. Merely listen to it. Then draw your own conclusions. No need for experts. No need for pundits. No need even for an open mind. Just listen to the haunting call. A transcript won’t do. It must be heard.Here it is: http://soundclick.com/share.cf...

Who are you and what have you done with Luke? This article was clearly not penned by him. It doesn't blame white people even once. Minority voting participation is a huge step toward equal representation as you say, but until the people realize what power they really can have over this country they will never seize it. If the changes made thru the polls were instantaneous, maybe more undereducated people would vote. Right now, they see the election results, but don't see it personally benefit them in any real-time manner, so they can't be bothered.

Wow..My respect for you as a human,as an artist and a deep political thinker is boundless.

How about being proactive and setting up black marches to eliminate black on black crime in the inner city, creating more solid family units in the black community, and eliminating the gangster stereotypes? Start with yourself and community before looking outward to change others.

Leading Afro-Americans to the polls will not get Sharpton and Jackson camera time but dividing Americans will.

"Instead of taking money to hold self-serving rallies, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson should be marching people to their local voter registration offices. The only way to stop injustices such as Trayvon Martin's killing is to march when it really matters. And that's on Election Day."===============================

I like how you say it was an "injustice" as if you know exactly what happened. As long as people think and act like you then there will never be any real debate or "equality" it's just one side against the other.

If it's proven that the kid attacked Zimmerman without provocation will you admit you were wrong? Or is it simply an "injustice" WHENEVER a Black man is killed, regardless of the circumstance?

You should be railing on the sycophants like Sharpton and Jackson. They are the ones inciting problems more than anyone else.

They already vote. How do you think Obama got elected in the first place. It sure wasn't because of his policies.

The thing to watch is to see of they come out again.

Please sign this petition for MSNBC to fire Al Sharpton. Please pass it on.

Maybe blacks should stop wearing hoodies and looking like thugs. Maybe blacks should pull their pants up and stop emulating inmates.Maybe blacks should get their butts in school and get educated.Maybe black fathers should stop being absent from their childrens lives.Maybe blacks should start being more responsible for their own actions and stop blaming others for their shortcomings.Maybe blacks should just grow up.

What can we do about this? I'm willing to help somehow. I'm from CT but I would volunteer my time to get people registered and to get them to vote on election day if something was organized.

For anyone that is interested….I am an audio guy..

I took the 911 call with the most audio informatiion regarding screams, compressed it, ran it at half speed and pitch corected it 100 percent.. even though it runs slower (just a tenth over half speed) anyone with an ear for music can tell not a note has been changed.. Digital affords you this luxury. In the analog days we had to physically slow the tape/medium down and you lose pitch and clarity.

Anyway, what I find most interesting is the ghastly scream at about 1:12 right after the final shot.\.

THIS AUDIO IS NOT ENHANCED per sey.. not like enhancing a photo.. the only enhancing has been to adust volume levels so you don’t hurt your ear listening to everything at relative volume levels.

There are a few swirling artifacts in this copy because I had to compres the wav file to a 128 kbps mp3 to fit on my page so you had a player to hear it on.. These artifacts are slight and will not distract.

The 911 call as you have never heard it before, draw your own conclusions. Listen for the scream after the shot.

Again, draw your own conclusions, I am not here to change any minds tonight. This exorsize is just a way to access the call and hear things you would not of just listening to the raw recording.

united we stand, divided we fall.
