The reality is, TM could have been white and he'd still be dead. Zimmerman could have been black and TM would still be dead. That's because race, if it WAS a factor, was not a determining factor. You had a young male (who commit most crimes) acting suspiciously in a neighborhood that had suffered a rash of break-ins. Zimmerman is calling that in and watching where the kid went regardless of his race.

What followed was not because of race, but because TM caught someone eyeballin' him and chose to respond like a thug. And white, black, hispanic or whatever...that is sometimes how young males respond to a perceived "challenge", unfortunately.

I got through the first one, where some nutjob was saying we need to be in a world war to teach men how to be men or something like that. And that was it for comment-reading from me.

"Asked where he was going, Zimmerman told the officer “nowhere in particular.”

When a hispanic male tells you that after being pulled over for speeding, you call in the dogs :)

More disgusting government sponsored propaganda related to this case. If you don't want to click on the link "A mural of a man who looks like George Zimmerman shooting a likeness of Trayvon Martin was unveiled Friday at the state Capitol of Florida.
A mirror sits in the spot under a hoodie where Trayvon Martin's face would be, bordered by Martin Luther King, Jr.'s face decorated with streaks of blood.
Miami artist Huong created the 10-foot mural, which carries the message, "We are all Trayvon Martin."

Wow, that is bullshit.

So basically that mural is saying "we're all criminals"?

The part where the kid in the hoodie punches the other guy ended up on the cutting room floor.

LMAO...Zimmerman never even asserted the stand your ground law. It was a classic self-defense case. But when you're race-baiting, facts aren't that important.
