WHITE GUY DEFENSE FORCE GO!

[lacktheknack]

Trayvon was out buying skittles and Arizona that could be used to make the drug trayvon was texting about.

Lets not kid ourselves saying its "little timmy out with his friends on a play date."

Well that certainly justifies killing him, doesn't it?

That's not the point. The whole point is whether the murder was racially charged or not.

...I think. I haven't been following the Martin/Zimmerman case too closely, for much the same reason you don't follow a dragon too closely. Get too involved and you get doused in flames.

Some people are asking for WGDF wallpapers, but fuck them, I'm not their dancing monkey. Here's a very high res pic of the title shot so people can their own wallpapers.

You've created a monster...you know that right? I really do enjoy how you go from short and simple gag-strips to all of a sudden dropping a mega-bomb like this one on us. I mean given the nature of the Off-Topic Discussion forum on this site, you just HAD to know that this would likely be the biggest comment section one of your comics has ever gotten.

White people have been playing the "persecuted minority card" for years and years now. While simultaneously playing the majority card. This is mostly a play on Rush Limbaugh. "Thanks, Obama" has become an internet meme simply because a certain body of almost exclusively white people have blamed Obama for everything from the economy to the weather.

Just because I like poking hornets' nests: "You mean kinda like how the majority of people polled during the last election still blamed Bush for the economy and pretty much everything else that's wrong with the country despite the fact that he's been out of the office for (at the time) four years?"

What matters is who started the fight.

Then why bring up these alleged "drugs" Martin was making?

They teach you this in school. It seems that lesson didn't take for 99% of the escapists.

Actually, most schools' policy is "it doesn't matter who started it, don't escalate". Also, most schools tend to frown on bringing a gun to a fist fight.

Hell, when trayvon came back to fight, he lost all self defense claims because self defense ends when you successful retreat from a dangerous situation.

By that logic, doesn't choosing not to just drive away invalidate Zimmerman's claim to self-defense?

This isn't funny.
It's just a cheap strawman comic that just rips stupid memes from 4chan and reddit and a crappy message.
Black characters have been represented in many types of entertainment and to assume that they are'nt is bogus. People think the mindless inclusion of *insert group* is gold just because that group has suffered. It's shamelessly hamfisted an uninspired and somewhat racist "white guilt" trip. It's kinda depressing that people think a hamfisted message like this is going to get people you support better representation.
At this point why even bother. This place would ban or warn me for not having a far left opinoion.
This is not how you represent us democrats and minorities.

This is pretty much what this comic was.
I'm done here.

I must confess that I missed the day when we announced the Escapist was a political website rather than, you know, a balanced website that focused on what its good at and not being unsubtle in its political views at all times.

Also anybody notice we lost a poster with thousands of posts to a perma-ban for what can only be described as calling today's comic a bit rubbish.

I must confess that I missed the day when Cory and I were declared supreme rulers of the entire site. Sweet.

You do realize Zimmerman was about/is about as white as Obama...right?
