That's exactly right, especially if the bigger, older, and armed black man somehow felt that his life was being threatened by a younger, smaller white kid armed with Skittles and an iced tea and wearing a hoodie.

The story would be buried on page 3 of the local news, run for a day or so, and never be mentioned anywhere again of course.

I don't think the "scary black man" argument is worth anything TBH. If the story comes out that Trayvon did indeed attack Zimmerman the main thing that it destroys is the weight/size discrepancy that people are trying to pass off as an advantage to Zimmerman.

But others do so it's a moot point.

So, you're saying the guy with the gun is at a disadvantage?

If the picture was at 16, it's understandable. If it's at age 15, it might still be understandable if that's the ONLY good and clear picture. But at age 14, it's getting rediculous. But at age 13??????

If they want to be bias and deceptive about, they might as well show a picture of him when he was a toddler.

Maybe if you ask the coroner he can satify your weird attitude by sending you a picture of the kid as he is NOW.


This is an unbelievable thread..."he wasn't a victim because we can't judge him on his looks"


How incredibly stupid!!

What has become of the witness who (allegedly) saw Martin assault Zimmerman? Is that legit? And if not, how did Zimmerman get the broken nose, bloodied face, and cut on the back of his head?

Or that guns make little men into big men. Something like that.

To answer the question of the OT-the black man would probably already be on death row.
