A Letter to George Zimmerman

Wednesday, April 18, 2012 9:26 PM by RobertVincent

Dear Mr. Zimmerman,

Although you are free for now and may never get the chance to read this message, I felt I just had to speak my mind.

For quite a while, I have thought about the shooting of Trayvon Martin. He seemed like a average kid who was
unfortunate enough to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Granted, Trayvon wasn't perfect. After all he was
caught smoking weed and suspended from school a few times. But, death is a fate he did not deserve. The idea of
killing an unarmed teenager after disregarding police orders not to confront him in fact seems stupid on your part.

Yet, in spite of all that has transpired, you chose to invoke a "Stand Your Ground" law to claim self-defense. Not
only is that irresponsible, but it is a clear misapplication of a law designed to protect victims, not vigilantes.
Ultimately, your fate is now in the hands of an unbiased jury, once that I hope will reach the right decision.

 


Sincerely,

Robert Vincent

Internet Meme: Asma al-Assad

Monday, March 26, 2012 8:32 AM by RobertVincent

In the following internet meme, Syria's first lady, Asma al-Assad is compared to Queen Marie Antoinette of France. Both lived extravagantly while their nations struggled economically and both stood by their men during civil uprisings. First Lady Assad is nothing more than a pretty face, a "Stepford" wife wore the latest in fashion while her tyrannical husband crushed rebellion through the indiscriminate shelling of neighborhoods. Just like the French Monarchy, the Assad "Monarchy" of Syria will fall. Once the rebels win, a few travel and financial sanctions will be the least of Lady Assad's worries.

Why You Should Boycott Geraldo Rivera and Fox News

Friday, March 23, 2012 10:10 AM by RobertVincent

Leave it up to Fox News to play a "devil's advocate" position and kick the dog.

On the show "Fox & Friends," commentator Geraldo Rivera made the assertion that the fatal shooting of Florida teen Trayvon Martin could have been avoided if Trayvon hadn't worn a hoodie. According to Rivera, "if you dress like a hoodlum, then some schmuck is going to take you at your word." I've supported Geraldo in the past as a foil to Bill O'Reilly, but this time he is wrong. This is analogous to arguing that a rape victim wouldn't have been raped if she hadn't worn a revealing outfit. Furthermore, Geraldo ignored the fact that the shooter, George Zimmerman greatly exceeded his authority as a neighboorhood watchman by being armed and by directly confronting Martin, even when no actual crime had occured.

In light of this, perhaps Mr. Rivera should heed my incendiary approach to pundits who speak and write from ignorance. Talk trash and get boycotted. You saw what happened to Rush Limbaugh, with over 40 advertisers pulling their ads earning near-universal condemnation across the country. That bitch Nancy Grace should be boycotted as well, for attempting to sensationalize the Whitney Houston death by making the jump in logic to imply there was foul play just to get ratings. America will not take this lying down and should not take this lying down. We've had enough bullshit from politically incorrect, insensitive dicks like Geraldo Rivera, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reilly.

Internet Meme: Trayvon Martin

Thursday, March 22, 2012 11:16 AM by RobertVincent

UPDATE:  Trayvon's name was mispelled. It is "Trayvon" not "Tayvon"

A week ago, I learned that a Florida teen by the name of Trayvon Martin had been gunned down by a neighborhood watchman. At first, I said job well done. Sometimes lethal force is a necessary evil when it comes to preserving the peace. But, when I found out that Trayvon was in fact unarmed (by unarmed I mean he only had candy and iced tea) and that the watchman, George Zimmerman, had a history of tying up emergency services a grand total of 47 times within the past year with frivolous calls about "suspicious" people, I almost lost my meal. To make matters worse, the son of a bitch got away with it due to a "Stand Your Ground" law that allows civilians to use lethal force against attackers without any questions asked. Now the federal government is investigating the matter and I hope they find justice for this young man. Even in 2012, you can be killed for being black at the wrong place and wrong time.

In light of the Trayvon Martin shooting, I have created two internet memes. The first one underscores the pettiness with which Trayvon was murdered. Readers are encouraged to follow the #TrayvonMartin memorial Twitter feed referenced in the meme for updates. The second one makes fun of George Zimmerman's resemblance to a post-op Chaz Bono, implying that they were separated at birth.

My main issue with this case is that Neighborhood watchmen are employed to WATCH. They should seldom stalk, confront and SHOOT, especially without properly assessing the situation. When you start doing that, you go from being a neighborhood WATCHman to a neighborhood VIGILANTE. 

 

The cost of a human life

George Zimmerman - Chaz Bono, Separated at Birth?

Dear Rush Limbaugh: Fluke You!

Rush Limbaugh runs his mouth

Dear Rush Limbaugh:

FLUKE YOU! You flucking think you are too big to flucking fail?! Eight companies already pulled their flucking ads and one station flucking cancelled your flucking ass!

Who the fluke are you calling a flucking slut?! Had it ever flucking occured to you that more than half the women who flucking use the "morning after" pill use it to treat health problems?! How do you flucking know how much that student flukes?! How do you know whether or not she is a flucking prostitute?! Have you been flucking other women behind your young girlfriend's flucking back?!

I hope you flucking learn from this because it's flukes like you who are listened to by 15 million flucking idiots with your incendiary flucking rhetortic and your judgemental flucking attitude towards people you never met that are flucking up America. Never have we been so flucking divided by idiots who think they can scream bloody flucking murder about others with im flucking pugnity while teaching others that compromise was such a bad flucking word! Never have we been so damned filled with flucking hate and animosity that we tear into an innocent flucking woman who was speaking her flucking mind on a flucking issue she knew the fluke about! After all, her friend lost a flucking ovary to cysts and the only flucking thing keeping the other flucking ovary from flucking failing is the flucking medine the righties continue to label as flucking birth control!

So fuck you and your stupid ass fuckin show Mr. Limbaugh! I'm pretty sure Ms. Fluke (Pronounced "Fluck") would agree when I say this, but fuck you and have a nice day and I hope you rot in fucking hell you cowardly, pill-popping motherfucker!

Sincerely,

Robert Fucking Vincent
