TYT: Trayvon Martin Smear Campaign



Via Think Progress: "Twitchy, a new website run by prominent conservative blogger Michelle Malkin, promoted a photo — purportedly from Martin's Facebook page — that shows Martin in saggy pants and flipping the bird. The photo, which spread quickly on conservative websites and Twitter, is intended to paint Martin as a thug. As Twitchy later acknowledged, it is not a photo of Trayvon Martin...".* Ana Kasparian and Cenk Uygur discuss the smear campaign against Trayvon Martin (the unarmed 17-year-old shot and killed by George Zimmerman) on The Young Turks.

They so desperately need an excuse for why "thou shalt not kill" was broken, that they have no problem breaking "thou shalt not bear false witness". Where's Roy Moore to drop some stone tablets on a few heads?

So sad when a murderous SOB can possibly get off because of his fathers political pull. I can only imagine that is where all this is coming from?

And to think this person was a judge is obscene.
