Note to black guys walking the streets minding their own busines: When confronted by a strange man you deem "creepy", remember to keep your eyes on the ground. A few "no, suhs" and "yes, suh" wouldn't go amiss either.
Remember that you will almost NEVER be afforded the benefit of the doubt. You will be seen as a thug unless evidence is found to the contrary. And even when found, it will be dismissed as media propaganda.
Great advice for inner city black guys killed by other inner city black guys. Might save hundreds of black lives every year by avoiding the #3 killer of black guys. Good job.
Do you wish that you lived in Jim Crow America, so that your subservient, demure nature could be properly acknowledged?
I can't even begin to understand how someone would say the proper response to being trailed by a stranger, is to smile and ask them if there was a problem?

Or better yet: if someone asks you what you're doing in their development, it is better not to yell racial slurs at them and then attack them, punching them and basically slamming them into the grass. A simple "well I was just xyz and visiting ABC, is there a problem?" will suffice. No need to die in a N****** moment.
Because at 17 and fit, vs Zimmerman's age and unfit, the ONLY way they could meet physically, is if Martin stopped and confronted Zimmerman, had he started running, he would have easily outdistanced Zimmerman.
Wow...you are making a TON of assumptions.
In fact, just your description (Trayvon fit, Zimmerman unfit) shows your bias. Although unfit now, Zimmerman was in good shape at the time of the murder. Not a beer belly in sight and only 28 (an age when many mean are at the peak of their physical health).
Trayvon was under NO obligation to run from Zimmerman. Many teen boys have a (sometimes detrimental) sense of bravado and will not run in the face of danger.

Yep...if all's fair then perhaps TM's dad will catch GZ out some night and be in fear of HIS life and they will have to pick GZ up with a spoon afterward...that would be true street justice served cold
Completely different case. There was no evidence that OJs victims ever attacked him. Broke his nose, smashed his head into concrete and continued to do so while his victim screamed for help and begged for his life.
Kind of hard to smash your head on grass (where Trayvon's body was at the time of his death).
But I see you want to engage in immature rhetoric. I don't engage with such sophomoric debating tactics. Consider yourself ignored.
The Jeffrey Dahmers of the nation have just been given a greenlight to creep on any young Black man that they so choose.
Such a stupid post.
