    Louis Farrakhan threatens violent retaliation :rolleyes:

    http://www.theblaze.com/stories/far...e-no-peace-law-of-retaliation-may-be-applied/

    Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan has been among the vocal voices weighing in on calls for justice for Trayvon Martin, an unarmed 17-year-old who was gunned down last month while walking home in Sanford, Florida. On Wednesday, a march was held in New York City in support of the teen’s family, as federal and local authorities launch investigations into how the incident unfolded and why the state’s “stand your ground” law applied to the shooter in this case.

    “Where there is no justice, there will be no peace. Soon the law of retaliation may very well be applied,” Farrakhan wrote, including the hashtag #Trayvon to clarify the subject of his angst. “Let us see what kind of justice will come for his bereaved family and our bereaved community,” he said

    Paging Mr Blade, we have a potential violent situation here.
    Is it ok for esteban to shoot a black person if they try to do harm to Mrs esteban in retaliation according to the minister Ayatollah Farrakkhan.

    Tell us bigtexxx, why do you call it a "threat" if someone else instigates a fight and then claims self defense?

    You have yet to answer that simple question.

    I can't beleive you are going down this same path again? I pwned you once already on the very same topic.

    first of all it's not okay for anyone to harm someone else

    as for the answer to your question, it depends on where you live and the circumstances around it

    Welcome to the lefty world, they pick and choose their faint outrage to suit their political agenda. Normally, they would not give 2 shiit about Trayon Martin. We will soon have a national lynching, million hoodie march, all kinds of race pimps will get involved.

    Post racial society my ass!

    He must have just gotten American Online.

    Nancy Grace does this every day on her show and on the internet in which she always finds the accused guilty. She then goes into extreme b**** mode and calls for their head while trying to turn America against the individual even before the trial begins.

    I agree there is a slippery slope ...it's called "Stand Your Ground". Zimmerman clearly demonstrated how a well intentioned law can be abused particularly if law enforcement picks and choses how they will apply it.

    Your so called "Mob Mentality" is called democracy. In America, we have the right to assemble. It's a basic constitutional right.

    It is VERY VERY important that the public respects our law enforcement which is there to uphold our laws. It fundamentally undermines the stregnth of our nation if the public loses faith in law enforcement.

    I agree with you that now that authorities are taking this serious, we should let justice run it's course. That said, it is my understanding that Zimmerman is still not in jail. To me, that still appears to be an injustice. You can't convince me otherwise that the outcome would have been different if the roles were reversed. However, I'd guess most people feel much better that justice will be served now relative to last week.

    No not if Minister Farrakhan is the one doing it. Of Farrakhan is more in line with your political leanings than mine. He's opposed to welfare, and other social services provided by the government, much like you are.

    Farrakhan is also a proponent of gun ownership.
