| thismeintiel said: Casey Anthony has nothing to do with this case, as all the evidence in the Zimmerman case supports Zimmerman's version of events. In other words, a open and shut self defense case. Am I pissed by the Casey Anthony verdict? Yea. I believed she murdered her baby. Am I going to call for the Federal government to change the outcome of the trial, while labeling Casey Anthony a racist? No. The sad fact about the Zimmerman case is people still want to focus on the dead "innocent black boy" and the "racist white murderer who stalked him." The problem with that is it's not factually accurate. But to those people, facts don't matter. It doesn't matter that Trayvon was much taller than Zimmerman and was athletically built. It doesn't matter that Zimmerman actually stopped following Trayvon after the dispatcher told him they didn't need him to. It doesn't matter that Trayvon had plenty of time to get home, but instead decided to stick around. It doesn't matter that Zimmerman had a broken nose and was having his head repeatedly smashed into the concrete sidewalk. All that matters is Trayvon, the "victim," was black and Zimmerman, the "murderer," was "white." The saddest part is that is if Zimmerman didn't have a gun and was unable to call for help, and Trayvon had actually been able to smash his brains in, then this would have stayed a local story. Just like all the black murders done by other blacks in the inner cities. Those are ignored because they illustrate a real problem that would actually take people who care, and are willing to put the effort in, to fix. It also doesn't allow the media and politicians (mostly on the left) to do what they love doing most, stirring the race pot. Why else would they call a Hispanic a white man, and yet call Obama black, when they both have the same amount of white in them? |
Sorry, but your arugment holds very little water.
The argument that "Trayvon should have gone home", while ignoring the fact that Zimmerman should have done what both his own Neighborhood Watch policy AND the fucking police said he should do, instead folling Trayvon, with a fucking loaded gun tucked in his pants like some kind a gangsta........please.
The argument that Trayvon was MUCH BIGGER AND ATHLETIC than the poor, short, dumpy, fat Zimmerman, is rather immaterial. Sorry, but if some creepy fat fuck was following me in the dark, I'd kind of want to know what the fuck was up too. Would I turn around and confront the guy? Who knows? But the fact that Travyon didn't run straight home doesn't excuse the fact that Zimmerman followed him with a loaded weapon, with every intention of getting into a conflict. If that WASN'T his intent, the motherfucker wouldnt' have followed him, would he? The better question here is, why the hell, after calling the police, which is ALL any neighborhood watch EVER says to do, did old Georgie not GO HOME himself? The entire situation could have been easily avoided if he would have kept to his own dumbass self, called the cops if he felt it was so neccisary (it wasn't), and then stay the fuck inside his own home like he was supposed to.
Implying that it's Trayvon's fault he died, because he didn't run home, instead confronting a guy who was following him with a loaded weapon (and in all honesty HAD to have said or done something to provoke the fight), is about the same as saying that a girl who dresses slutty is "asking to be raped".
And quite frankly, no, it wasn' an "open and shut self defense case". The ONLY real testimony to the incident there was, was Zimmerman's. No one was outside watching all this go down. It was Zimmerman, Martin, and some texts/phone calls made. That's literally IT. The dead guy can't testify as to what happened. Thus Zimmerman's testimony is the only thing anyone actually has to go on. That's literally as far as it goes.
And I'm sorry, the fact of the matter is, if Zimmerman had been a black dude, who shot Trayvon, a tall, athleticly built white kid, this would be a very different story for a LOT of folks.
