Letter: White Hispanic Leafletted Black Church To Demand Justice for Black Homeless Man Beaten By Police Chief's Son

Narratives.

You will recall the incident of the beating of the black homeless man Sherman Ware on December 4, 2010 by the son of a Sanford police officer. The beating sparked outrage in the community but there were very few that stepped up to do anything about it. I would presume the inaction was because of the fact that he was homeless not because he was black. Do you know the individual who stepped up when no one else in the black community would? Do you know who spent tireless hours putting flyers on the cars of persons parked in the churches of the black community? Do you know who waited for the church-goers to get out of church so that he could hand them flyers in an attempt to organize the black community against this horrible miscarriage of justice? Do you know who helped organize the City Hall meeting on January 8, 2011 at Sanford City Hall?? That person was GEORGE ZIMMERMAN.

That's from an unnamed (but verified) Zimmerman family member.

Full letter here. The writer calls the NAACP "racist."

Well, it is.

First Cop on the Scene's Report Supports Zimmerman's Claim of a Beating. He notes the bleeding from Zimmerman's head and nose, and also notes that Zimmerman said he kept calling for help, but no one came.

He realized that people had heard him calling out, and began lying about who was yelling, from moments after the shooting?

Scream 2: Are there any media people in NYC who could afford the $699 registration fee for a conference on voice biometrics going on April 3-4? Tom Maguire suggests that maybe they ought to give it a whirl.
