Read the links and remember these past incidents in which the press tried and convicted in the court of public opinion only to be proven innocent. Members of the press never publically apologized for their actions which caused their victims years of grief.

Trayvon might not be dead if he hadn't attacked George Zimmerman.

If I was 17 and some wierdo came up on me I would fight him too. I know some want blacks with hat in hand eyes lowered and answering their questions but its not back to that yet.

We have met the enemy - he is in our country - and he is one of us.

Maybe he wouldn't be dead.

However he definitely wouldn't be dead if Zimmeman hadn't got out of his car with a gun.

This is a fact.

And until I hear that Trayvon approached the car or dragged Zimmerman out, a grown 240lb guy should've not been knocked to the ground by a punch from a 140lb kid. All kidding aside, are we supposed to believe that Trayvon had it in him to KILL Zimmerman with his bare hands?

It is being reported that Trayvon was 6'3" athlete and Zimmerman is only 5'6". Trayvon approached Zimmerman from behind as he was returning to his SUV after losing sight of him. Travyon threw the only punches and was bashing Zimmermans head on the ground.

Ok. So you're 5'6'' 240lbs- and there's a ripped Black guy right out of Mandingo up to no good- do you get out of your car if you don't have a gun?

Then you don't get out of your car because you have a gun.

Most people have never been in a real fistfight. I doubt Trayvon was going to give Zimmerman the 'dental plan' so a grown man should've been able to physically defend himself somewhat.

Perhaps Zimmerman is another Ghetz. Who knows. He is hardly represents all whites or latino's.
We have had a few Asian men go on killing sprees. Do we tar and feather all asians or this nation because of them? I hope not.
Whites account for the solid majority of mass murderers, serial killers and pedophiles. Yet most whites never dream of doing those things.
To hear the Sharptons talk it is standard conversation at our dinner tables. Lets go rape, murder or commit crimes against young black men.
Some posters on this forum are no better.
