Yes, and notice that Zimmerman's response to what he perceived as wrong, was to shove a cop. Remember Rachel Jeantel's testimony, the bump she heard when Trayvon's headset fell to the ground. Maybe that's how Zimmerman responded to Trayvon's aggrieved question, "why are you following me for?"
And none of this would ever have happened if Zim did what the dispatcher asked him to do, he completely ignored it and did what he wanted to do, played cop, jury and executioner all in one.
There used to be laws about taking the law into one's own hands, but Florida laws must be kind of quirky. I'll never ever go to or pass into that state.
That's funny, I perceived no racism, just a stupid comment made by a stupd person, to wit, Obama. Factually, Obama has no "race" as he is a mix, unless you consider "mixed race" a race.
Black males being profiled as criminals is not a civil rights issue?
Depends... does the percent of actual black criminals warrant profiling? I don't have any statistics in front of me, so I'm just saying... if criminals are disproportionally black by a wide margine, and I'm NOT saying they are, but if they are, then profiling is just being realistic.
People are not making the case against profiling though when they say GZ was racial profiling TM and then TM came and beat the (*&^ out of GZ.
Per the Arkansas new stations the Twitter feed you posted was false. Another news source Kark4 tweeted back that it wasn't involving Trayvon Martin...ironically it's only been retweeted 9 times while the lie was retweeted over 100 times...gotta love how people quickly share false information while complaining about being misinformed.
You mean the undercover cop who had not yet identified himself?
Just another one of Zimmerman's lies. He was never cleared of those charges; he took a plea deal, the two felony charges were reduced to misdemeanors and he had to complete court-mandated anger management classes. He obviously failed those classes...
The agent did identify himself, and he showed Zimmerman his badge. This was witnessed by 3 other ATF agents. It is in the FBI report on the investigation of the incident. Zimmerman's response was, "I don't care who you are." And when the law enforcement officers tried to get him to move away, he shoved the officer. He also resisted arrest.
