obviously you are not as enraged as everyone else subby

Subby sounds white.

RussianPooper: Let's continue to ignore other things that we really should collectively be more outraged about.

I don't know. I think it's pretty justifiable being outraged over the murder of a black teenager whose only crime was being in possession of Skittles while black in Florida --especially since his killer is free and hasn't been charged with a damn thing.

But, you know, you can go be outraged over the ending of Mass Effect 3 or the temperature of your latest iPad or something truly important, okay? Leave us our little moments, please.

RussianPooper: KONY outrage last week, Trayvon outrage this week.

Not that these aren't tragedies, but it seems to be more of a macabre societal entertainment than anything else. Let's all join in on outrage about something! Let's continue to ignore other things that we really should collectively be more outraged about.

Expressing outrage on behalf of others is the American way.

Fine, I know there will be some other outrage next week you'll be posting on Facebook after you forget about this one.

Nope. I'm going to email you to ask whether or not something is truly worth being pissed off about. Clearly, you are in a position of superiority that allows you the ability to judge situations and events through appropriately jaded filters.

I'd hate to be angry at something if that something is not truly worth being angry over. Thankfully, we have you. Please give us the guidance we so desperately require, and we will allow this boy's murder to fade from public appraisal to become the forgotten thing needed to keep from irritating both your delicate life and your sad, sandy vagina.

Hoodie? Uh oh, better keep my wallet on a chain this weekend

You can't go calling every rally a "Million X March" and have a hundred people show up. Even the "Million Man March", which had several hundred thousand people show up, was a nation-wide effort. Months of planning went into it.

Didn't they manage to actually ban hoodies in the UK? Or was that some farked up dream I had?

I've seen this, and online petitions bouncing around Twitter...

You know what? I think the guy needs to do serious jail time (manslaughter at least, it seems), but

WE DO NOT ARREST PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY BASED ON A PETITION OR PROTEST

Well if nothing else all the Sturm und drang about this case will probably provide the necessary political cover to repeal the asinine "stand your ground" law (and yes, I'm fully aware it doesn't really apply to this case, but it was the reason cops cited for not arresting Zimmerman at the scene)

So, there's that at least

Yes, because it was so much better when victims of crimes had to worry about getting charged with a crime for defending themselves....

Trayvon.

His name was Trayvon.

No but in fairness protests can lead to better investigation, which can lead to arrest.

And during this event, there will be a shooting incident by the some of the "protesters" killing/wounding double digit number of people.

/bets?

Thank you! Someone needs to point this out.. all he did was get on a petition, nothing else! if it wasn't for this petition no one would even know of this guy's name.

HotWingConspiracy: Didn't they manage to actually ban hoodies in the UK? Or was that some farked up dream I had?

No.

Some shopping centres have banned them from their premises. That's it.

what about a brazillion hoodie march?

Look, I'm as outraged at Trayvon Martin's shooting as anyone

No, no you're not.

And this headline is trollrific! thanks admins, because the last 2 threads about this case just drew the racists flies into the toilet here and I'm getting the fark out before it happens again.

I was about to respond angrily but I have a feeling I/we were just trolled big time.

Plans to attend.

cameroncrazy1984: Subby sounds white.

nah I know lots of white people pissed over this also.
Subby just has sand in his veejay jay.

I'm going to wait until all the facts are in.

Currently I can see the kid deserved a beatdown at most, and wannabe supercop seemed way too eager to pull and use his piece.

My friend went to this. She's retired. She goes to a lot of protests.

/I know. Wow.

White America (new window)

It's coming. The wool is coming off the eyes and people are going to realize we are all looked at as 'minorities' to those in power. Sooner or later all people except those at the top will realize there is no difference between us and all those people we are supposed to be afraid of.

Can't see the video but is that the chick from FAU ?

Hey man, those hoodies are saving the Earf.

People can be offended all they want, but why do they assume that they know better than the police whether or not a person is guilty of a crime? If there were evidence there to support his guilt, why isn't he under arrest? It may very well be an injustice that a proper investigation apparently hasn't taken place, but these people aren't calling for an investigation - they're calling for an arrest. That's not due process, and if it were done to them they'd be claiming discrimination.

So no, you can't have your cake and eat it too. Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton aren't going to change that.

Like young Mr. Martin? He was the victim of the crime here. And had more grounds under that law to fark up some guy coming out of the dark at him with a pistol giving commands.

What about the outrage over this? (new window)

Oh that's right, he was male and white which disqualifies him from being covered by the media.

/FTFY

This can only go well.

I am:

A. Not tired of this story

B. Tired of this story

Fun fact:

The FAU student threatening to kill her white classmates the other day was in the process of setting up a rally for Trayvon.

I love how the same people making fun of the Kony 2012 thing is taking this so seriously. Never change Fark.

Yes. And the day before she was helping organize a rally.

"These are not the f*cking coons you're looking for."

I gotta wonder how many people actually legitimately care, instead of the usual hurf blurf I AM OUTRAGED ABOUT SOMETHING that happened to someone that I don't know or care about.

I dont watch the news anyway so honestly not all that familiar with the story.

This anti-hoodie sentiment is just another strike against the Assassins from the Templars. This entire incident was planned by them.

/Nothing is true

Zimmerman should be hanged for general stupidity, if nothing else.

don't you have a drag race to go to?
