"A member of a pro-Travyon Martin group was unmasked Wednesday as he tried to get on the Florida jury in George Zimmerman’s trial for shooting the unarmed teen.
A white male potential juror identified on his Facebook page as Jerry Counelis gave long, rambling answers about his impartiality when asked basic questions by attorneys.
Counelis, known as panelist E-7, said he was an unemployed painter and musician and had no problem being sequestered if chosen to serve on the jury.
Circuit Judge Debra Nelson said she had a question for Juror E-7
She then asked if Counelis posted something to the Coffee Party Progressives Facebook page on March 21.
Nelson circled something on a piece of paper and handed it to him, and told him to look at it and tell the court if he posted it.
Counelis said 'yes,' and was dismissed from the room. It’s not clear if he’s been taken off the list of potential jurors.
There were several other incendiary remarks about Zimmerman and police in Sanford, Fla., where Martin was shot.
According to its Facebook page, the Coffee Party Progressives is a group “dedicated to seeking justice for Trayvon Martin.”
On March 21, Counelis wrote on its page that the justice system “needs an enema.”
"In Sanford ... & I CAN tell you THIS. 'Justice' IS Coming!" he wrote, adding that "with the noise WE made ... it couldn't be covered up."...............""You'll get a fair trial followed by a first class hanging."
--Judge Roy Bean
In this case, however, George Zimmerman has much less to fear from a possibly prejudiced and arbitrarily-minded judge. What he does have to fear is the tide of radical liberal reaction.
To say that his lawyers have their work cut out for them would be a gross understatement. The impaneling of this jury will be the deciding factor in this trial, but even the court system will cower in fear of the likely reactions of the mob in the event of a not guilty verdict. This effect has already been seen in reports concerning what evidence the jury will be allowed to hear, such as Martin's text messages.
Our society has come to look upon troublemakers as victims, and all who make an effort to resist wrongful behavior as right-wingers, rogue vigilantes, or racists.
Hateful and white-blaming* people like Jerry Counelis, unemployed, presumably without children, and thus having no problem being on a jury for an entire month, are doing all that they can to get themselves on this trial so that they can convict Mr. Zimmerman. People with jobs who may also concerned about crime simply cannot afford to take month off from work (In the US, employers are not required to pay their employees on jury duty and many people are self employed) or leave their kids behind to be sequestered in a hotel for that amount of time.
*The media was quick to let all of us know that George Zimmerman was a "white Hispanic", and thus fully eligible for anti-white hatred and bias. White hatred by liberal whites has also become almost endemic in the US.(**See below)
This setting is ripe for all of the stay-at-homes to avenge Trayvon Martin, regardless of the latter's actions at the time of the shooting.
Families too have come to have no shame in putting up a wall to prevent any facts from affecting their perceptions. In my county in New Jersey a few years ago, a police officer shot and killed an adult male who had repeatedly taken steps that clearly put the cop in imminent fear of his life. The video in the link below shows what the actor did at the moment that the police initiated the arrest to the point when the second (Backup) officer was able to catch up with his vehicle - all with the initial contact officer having been inside of it.
When the family members were given a chance to review this video in a private setting, they decided to ignore what they witnessed and left proclaiming that they still thought that their son had been wrongfully killed. In the same manner, the Martin parents decided to pretend to believe that the cries for help on the recording were those of their son and not of George Zimmerman.
With the shooting here in New Jersey, the media here took the very same position that it did with the Trayvon Martin shooting. The deceased was painted by all as the greatest guy in the world, one who would not harm a fly. The only differences were that the sensationalized coverage was not all over the national media and no media organization tampered with the evidence to make the cop look guilty. The tampering, of course, was done to George Zimmerman on at least two occasions. Bearing false witness is a very evil thing to do.
There is a frightening movement in our society that seeks both to enable people to act as threateningly as they wish and to, through fear of prosecution (Along with death threats, etc.) , to force others into inaction.
The police, prosecutors/district attorneys and judges are poised to let Mr. Zimmerman be made a scapegoat to appease the mob and prevent more of the anti-white violence that immediately followed the shooting. I submit that we cannot let the fear of delusion-driven reaction affect the outcome of any decision, particularly legal ones.
We also need to put aside any ignorant "what about" claims that refer to injustices towards minorities in the courts from the past. We made the necessary repairs long ago. We also need to emphatically state that we will not entertain the notion that whites still need to be punished for crimes that they did not commit.
Jeff Hitchcock (co-founder of the Center for the Study of White American Culture) — “There is plenty to blame whiteness for. There is no crime that whiteness has not committed against people of color. There is no crime that we have not committed even against ourselves … We must blame whiteness for the continuing patterns today that deny the rights of those outside of whiteness and which damage and pervert the humanity of those of us within it.” [Chris Weinkopf, “Whiteness Studies,” Frontpagemag.com, June 25, 2003.] (added 6/29/03)

Donna Lamb (member of ‘Caucasians United for Reparations and Emancipation’) — “Knowing what I know about what my people did, I wouldn’t be able to respect myself if I weren’t doing everything I can to have … white people face up to this crime we committed and to right this great wrong.” [Manny Fernandez, Thousands To Rally for Reparations Apology Also Sought For Slave Descendants, Washington Post, August 16, 2002] (added 4/10/03)
David Roediger (social historian at the University of Minnesota) — “Whiteness is the empty and therefore terrifying attempt to build an identity on what one isn’t, and on whom one can hold back.” [The Social Contract, A Europhobia Sampler, Summer 1998, p. 290.] (added 4/10/03)
Noel Ignatiev (white Harvard professor and editor of “Race Traitor” magazine) — “Keep bashing the dead white males, and the live ones, and the females, too, until the social construct known as the white race is destroyed. Not deconstructed, but destroyed.” [Robert Boatman, “Trent Lott’s of the Left,” Frontpagemag.com (online), January 3, 2003.] (added 2/05/03)
Robin Morgan (white author) — “My white skin disgusts me. My passport disgusts me. They are the marks of an insufferable privilege bought at the price of others’ agony. If I could peel myself inside out I would be glad. If I could become part of the oppressed I would be free.” [Robert Boatman, “Trent Lott’s of the Left,” Frontpagemag.com (online), January 3, 2003.] (added 2/05/03)

Harris Sussman (white “diversity consultant,” in a front-page article in Managing Diversity, a publication subscribed to by U.S. government agencies) — “When we say ‘white people,’ we mean the people of greed who valued things over people, who value money over people. We know exactly what their values are and where they lead. We have all paid a terrible price for those values …” [White People, Washington Times, Feb. 13, 1997, p. A10.] (added 2/05/03)
Maggie Gallagher (white columnist) — “I hate the idea of being white. I never think of myself as belonging to the ‘white race.’ Those who do, in my experience, are invariably second-raters, seeking solace for their own failures. I can think of few things more degrading than being proud to be white.” [Maggie Gallagher, “The Rhetoric of Race,” NY Post, Oct. 20, 1995, p. 25.] (added 2/05/03)
Richard Parry-Jones (white vice president of Ford Motor Company) — “we are trapped in a monocultural environment that is dominated by old white males. We need to change.” [AP, Ford Ties Executives Perks Pay to Merit, Dec. 24, 1999.]
Susan Sontag (white intellectual) “The truth is that Mozart, Pascal, Boolean Algebra, Shakespeare, parliamentary government, baroque churches, Newton, the emancipation of women, Kant, Marx, and Ballanchine ballets don’t redeem what this particular civilization has wrought upon the world. The white race is the cancer of human history.' "
I don't allow attacks such as these to go unchallenged. Whites are by no means alone in regards to things that were either clearly wrong or less than right. Societies created by whites also happen to be some of the most free, tolerant, prosperous, and safe (without tyrannical control) places on earth. They also tend to be the most fertile places for artistic, scientific, literary, recreational, and political pursuits.
The Left needs to deconstruct the West. This must be kept in mind when one reads or hears such vicious drivel.
