Here is the real deal.Most whites KNOW what Zimmerman did was wrong,and that Trayvon was killed in cold blood.But the thing is,these whites ARE PERFECTLY OK WITH THIS, because to them,ALL young black males are a potential threat. And in order to maintain the fallacy of white supremacy,the white collective must support the white supremacist mindset.Even if it's wrong.This is why Zimmerman is getting so much support from whites (even tho he is definitely going to jail)
Come on now. Though gz is in some way 'white,' don't you think white supremacists would be happy a black guy is dead and an Hispanic guy is going to prison ? Why support him ? Even if he manages to beat the rap, he probably won't kill any more black guys and it'll be one more not really white guy roaming the streets.
It is human nature to make assumptions and assessments. Most of us do so on a daily basis. That being said, normal people's assessments and assumptions don't usually end in the stalking and murder of another human being.
Not only is your analogy weak, you IMO you are attempting to justify the unjustifiable.
Yes, and that speaks to nothing more or less than that poster's lack of character.
You were referring to "communities and their watches". That somehow implies something organized, IMO.
I don't live in a city. Save the snark.
Gate communities are organized and do have security because they like it that way. Please explain how I was in error in that statement.
Did I say Katiana lives in a city? No, I am sure that I never said that.

Almost as much as your post speaks to yours. Had you bothered to read any of my posts you would have seen that not once have I attempted to justify the shooting in any way. I simply refuse to accept the concept that a 17 yearold male is a child unless he is mentally disabled.
That said I am proud that I don't make your cut for what you consider good character. I thank you for that compliment.
Zimmerman lived on the other side of the development, so he was not near the townhouse he was renting in February. I've mentioned this before, but then someone always comes along and writes that perhaps he took an alternate route when he was on his way to Target. He said that he noticed Martin when he was on his way to Target, but the area where the body was found is not the entrance/exit he would have taken. Most people use the most convenient exit, the one closest to home. So this proves that he was also following Martin while driving, which would probably make the victim even more nervous. I mean, first he follows him in his car and then he gets out of the car to search for him. Wouldn't anyone with common sense want to defend himself against this fruitcake?
And to add on to that, who in the hell needs a loaded gun to go to Target?

Glad to be of service. I've read your posts. You've attacked the character and family of a DEAD black TEENAGER (legally a CHILD) who was shot by a grown man who initiated a confrontation with him for absolutely no reason. You have no leg to stand on whatsoever.

I wanted to remind everyone that 17 years olds can be (and often are) tried as adults.....\
No it is not a child

Kiss and hugs. What character did I attack specifically?
His face book comments ?
The fact he was suspended mutiple times ?
The young man was a wanna be and a pretender. Many people are.
His family? I have never discussed his family that I recall.
Legally a child or a minor? Typically 12 and under are refered to as children. Under 18 is a minor.
At 17 your child is able to do many things a typical child physically can not do. Like punch out a 28 year old idiot.
I have two legs to stand on but thanks for your concern.

There is doubt as to whether or not those comments, pix, etc. are even his.

And that's enough reason to surmise that he's a criminal that deserved to be smoked.

A wannabe what? He was a kid! Kids are pretenders - it's part of being a kid. Part of the immaturity of childhood.

For you I have none.
