Trayvon was wearing a hoodie at night time which is the look of a criminal and that's why he looked suspicious.

Doesn't matter who wears a hoodie at night they will look like a criminal regardless of their race

It is not illegal or wrong or unethical for a private citizen to profile another citizen. Everyone does it every day that they come in contact with strangers.

And he shot him in self-defense.

Try doing your research before making ignorant comments.
According to you - everyone is ignorant of the facts of this case - look at your postings. IF they don't agree with you - they suddenly are 'ignorant'. Please.

LEAN is something that didn't have one damn thing to do with this case. Nothing. Zip. Zero. Zilch.

Prove that it did.

Do you go out in the pouring ****ing rain because you want a Snapple and some Skittles?

Of course Martin was casing the neighborhood.

And since it was raining why not just have a umbrella


Who the hell wears a hoodie in the rain? Again when I look at police videos all the criminals have on hoodies which confirms it's the look of a criminal

Um when you wear a hoodie in the rain your face is getting wet and the hoodie is getting soaked with rain water.


So that means he should have been holding a umbrella

The trial went by the law, straight and forward. Civil Rights were never in play in this scenario. If it took place in California the results for Zimmerman would not have been in his favor but it still would not have violated any civil rights.
