Its obvious Zimmerman wouldn't have followed someone who didn't look like a potential thug/theif. Any random woman, he likely wouldn't have followed much at all. But you can't change the facts to an unending set of "what ifs". That's just ignorant. Fact is you had an ignorant man with a false sense of power witnessed a hooded thug looking-man walking through his neighborhood at night. A place that had seen numerous robberies recently. The ignorant man decided to ignore repeated requests by operators to not interfere and wait for police. The ignorant man then proceeded to confront the person he believed was likely up to no good. The man-looking-thug-dressing 17yr old ignorantly decided to be aggressive back and a fight ensued. If you've seen the pictures of Zimmerman, you know he was getting beat in that fight and very likely and ignorantly both parties saw the gun and likely went for it. Zimmerman happened to get it first. Its not a race issue. Making it one is what is ignorant. Its an issue of stupidity at the highest levels. Its an issue of people not acting like people and instead acting out of fear/anger/rage. Its an issue of men not knowing how to act towards other men without trying to be tough. Its horrible Trayvon had to die, but the jury made the right decision given the evidence. There are real race issues in this country. This wasn't one of them. |
If Martin was a pale blonde white boy with acne and frickles then he wouldn't have found him suspicious. George said "they are always trying to get away with something"....that's a racial reference to black people by anti-black people, that is always said by those people only.
Goeroge Zimmerman clearly had a racist bias against blacks & Mexicans his whole life, and he never consider himself Hispanic, and said he hates Hispanics, LOL but true.
