Is it justice people seek or are they looking and even hoping for signs of white racism so they can exploit it?
The answer is rather obvious.

At first glance, the death of Trayvon Martin seemed to be a straightforward example of ugly, racial conflict resulting in the killing of an innocent black teenager by a white man, George Zimmerman. But now, as evidence continues to come forward, the facts seem much more complicated and the "obvious truth" premature.
Extremists on both sides have exploited the issue. Black Panther idiots are using this as a recruiting tool, and White nationalists are using this also.
Me personally, I don't think race was involved, I think Martin killed the kid and got off because his father is a judge.
You always come up with some of the strangest things.
If you are in public on a public street I can follow you anywhere. There are no laws against just following someone.
There's a fine line between following and stalking. Zimmerman crossed the line.
It has to do with intent, but that is just common sense.

Apparently it's only stalking if a '78 Camaro is involved.
I haven't read the thread in its entirety ( don't know if I spelled that right) so I don't know if anyone has bought this up. But if I'm not mistaken wasn't Trayvon shot in the back of the head? I have'nt heard much of this but according to Zimmerman he shot because he was being attacked, but if he shot Trayvon in the back of the head it means that Trayvon was walking or running away thus no longer being a direct threat to Zimmerman, therefore excessive force would not have been necessary.

No, he was shot in the chest. No info about trajectory has been released, at least not that I've seen.
