The word ‘Thug’ has been tossed around to describe black people in this country for decades now as a substitute for Ni**er. Every since the country developed a minute consciousness that drove them away from overt racism, bigotry and hatred, thug has served as a useful alternative, but we understand the intent and meaning behind the word.
The word ‘Thug’ has been used to described the so called African American even when they were the victims of heinous acts committed by white people or even the police. Hell, even Richard Sherman was called a thug for being out spoken and unyielding to the white power structure while in front of cameras during football season. And you already know what they thought about Marshawn Lynch for not being spoken enough.
Who Is The Thug?
George Zimmerman was the poster boy hero of some white and racist people in this country a few years ago when he shot and killed, in cold blood, an unarmed black teenager by the name of Trayvon Martin. Zimmerman made up some BS story about being attacked by the teen, but Florida’s controversial Stand Your Ground law made it totally acceptable to shoot and kill the unarmed teen.
The wild thing about this case is the media angle of the story and the perception of Trayvon that was drug through the mud as the trial built up. People actually created the image of young Trayvon as the ‘Thug’ that needed to be killed. You know, all young black men are somehow perceived as dangerous and worthy of being killed even if it is for nothing more than carrying a juice and some candy.
Zimmerman was regarded as a hero, a pillar of the society for killing an unarmed black teen in cold blood….but what has he been up to lately?
THUGGIN!
I don’t know what societies definition of a THUG is these days, but the rational mind sees it as a person that is a general menace to society. And guess who fits that bill? That’s right, your boy George Zimmeran.
