Jesse Jackson Finally Comments on Oklahoma Tenn Thrill Kill … Says He “Frowns Upon” the Senseless Murder of Aussie Baseball Star Chris Lane .. Well Kind Of (Update: Jackson Guilted into Making Full Statement)

Finally Jesse Jackson has a comment, um well sort of …

The Reverend Jesse Jackson was quick to sound off about the Trayvon Martin death and demand justice. Jackson voiced his outrage over the shooting, demanded justice and proclaimed his disgust over the senseless killing. However, he has been noticeable silent when it came to the thrill kill murder of Australian baseball star Chris Lane in Oklahoma. Until yesterday when Jesse Jackson took to Twitter and voiced his moral outrage at the senseless killing of Chris Lane saying that a “thrill kill” of an individual by three bored teens was “frowned upon”. HUH, FROWNED UPON? That’s it? These three thugs, two of which were black, gun down a white kid for the sport of it and all Jackson has it that it is “frowned upon?” Where is the moral outrage Rev. Jackson that you showed in the Trayvon Martin killing? Sorry, but this one is worse. There was no confrontation, there is no question in doubt as to who did what. But sadly for Jackson and the rest of the race hustlers, this story does not fit their narrative and agenda and there fore does not need to be made an issue.

You mean I have to be consistent in my selective moral outrage?

How pathetic, but it is more than what has come from the mouths of race hustler Al Sharpton and President Barack Obama. During yesterday’s White House daily presser, WH press secretary did not even know who Chris Lane was or the murder. They certainly knew who Trayvon Martin was, didn’t they?

By the way, where are the comments from the NAACP, Black Panthers and the rest that were so vocal in the death of Trayvon Martin and so quick to condemn George Zimmerman … cat got your tongue?

UPDATE I: Finally Jesse Jackson and the Rainbow Push Coalition has released a statement on the murder of Chris Lane after being guilted into doing so after Jackson’s previous weak tweet that he “frowned upon” an innocent Aussie being shot in the back by three coward teens. However, still some what tepid compared to his selective outrage in Trayvon’s death. I wonder why?

The recent incidents of violence in America most notably the murder of Christopher Lee an aspiring student athlete from Australia in Oklahoma and the attack of a student on a school bus in Florida once again calls each of us to a collectively resist all forms of violence in our society. In particular black on black violence that disproportionately affects every facet of black life in America. These horrific episodes that leave all rationally thinking people appalled and others feeling paralyzed cannot be addressed by our silence and or abdicating our personal responsibility. We urge all persons who believe as we do in the King principle of peace all over the globe to rise to the challenge to pursue and promote peace and its principles.  We must learn to live together in peace or we will most assuredly die apart in our own neglect.

America’s prisons are bursting at their seams and the injustice in our criminal justice system erodes the faith all should have in a democracy so that all believe and trust that it works for all of its citizens. Countless numbers of youth are caught in the vice of violence that leaves an indelible mark on its victims, communities are terrorized, and many live in urban policed militarized zones. This perpetuates an evolving taste of disgust that can only be quenched by our voices and resources used in a concerted effort to enhance and advance crime prevention in our communities. As we remember Dr. King who likewise was victim of gun violence we must all defend the dream of a free and peaceful America.
