And just why is this so important to the black community that an Hispanic be labeled a white guy?

It has nothing to do with Obama, I doubt even he is such a narcissist to think the trial was somehow about Obama.

There is no "necessary action" for Obama to take. All of the laws of the land were followed, what do you expect him to do? Declare Martial Law in Florida and send in the military? We need LESS over reaching and abuses of authority by the federal government, not more.

Is this a serious question?

Obama shouldve kept his mouth shut.

This was a slap in no ones face. It was justice. The jury followed the law. End of story.

It is amazing how far some have gone to make GZ out to be white......this is rather disturbing!

After all some are calling to burn down white peoples homes......what are they thinking

Obama put his face where it didn't belong.

The President can't remember saying that.

If you are out walking and law enforcement stops you, that is one thing. If a fellow citizen starts following you in their car, gets out and approaches you with a gun, that is an unprovoked confrontation and Zimmerman is lucky that Martin was unarmed. Your obvious racial dig at President Obama is laughable.
