Incendiary Image of the Day: Obama as Trayvon Edition

“This is appalling,” youngcons.com pronounces, re: Washington Post cartoonist Clay Bennett’s handiwork above. “This cartoon perpetuates the false narrative about Trayvon Martin, calls conservatives racist, and blames conservatives for impeachment talk all at the same time. The trifecta of lies! In reality, Trayvon Martin was bashing Zimmerman’s head against the cement so George decided to respond with deadly force. It’s called self-defense. Ironically, Obama is hurting our country, and impeaching him could certainly be a form of self-defense.” Bennett’s cartoon certainly promotes a bunch of boneheaded ideas. But the one that stands out for me: the depiction of a black man – the first black President of the United States no less – as a defenseless victim. That’s demeaning, dispiriting and disgraceful. IMHO.
