Black people, take the chocolate chips off your shoulders and come in from the rain!
You're Americans now, thank the Gods we saved you from a life of abject poverty in Africa.
Lo, those many years ago...
All's forgiven, we're not mad that you wasted our time and tax $ on this shimsham trial, now let's move on...
It's not a race issue. What sane individual walks into a crowded theater and opens up on innocent movie attendees? What sane individual walks into a school and opens up on a classroom of children? Even the gangbangers wouldn't do that.. That is insanity.. Are there white criminals? You bet there are. Even my people have criminals. All races have criminals. Sadly the black youth in our major cities have turned to the drug culture and as you said protect their turf. They would do the same if they were running whores, gambling or any other number of illegal activities.. It's not the nature of black youth, but rather the nature of a gang mentallity... Where I live, we have the same thing among the hispanic community.
Well, its the methed out 'inner city' White youths that are the main problem in my area.
None of which was either proven or mattered in this case

I don't believe his head was being pounded when he shot Trayvon. Travyon's body being in the grass supports my position on this.
I believe Trayvon had a right to defend himself from a perceived threat.
Point taken. However, the part about the fighting does suggest that he has a propensity to engage in fighting (lost round one but won rounds two and three) and that he's not afraid to fight. In other words, he might be more likely to fight Zimmerman than to run home.
OK, let's suppose his talks about fighting suggest he was not afraid to fight (which I can believe. Many teen boys are not afraid to fight).
Do you agree that Zimmerman's history suggests a proclivity to being a hothead and not being afraid to fight/start a confrontation?
No one has proof about who started the attack. It's taken as fact (by both sides) that Zimmerman initiated the events by exiting his vehicle. Are you arguing otherwise?
What I am saying is that he committed no criminal offense by exiting his vehicle.

...to Federal charges for civil rights violations against Trayvon Martin and a full scale boycott of the state of Florida.

I don't find that surprising at all... As I said, where I live it's the hispanics... Where I did live it was my own native americans... It's not a question of race but rather a question of culture..

What civil rights violations???
