Isn't a not guilty verdict just a death sentence anyways?
I'm sad beyond words
not surprised, but sad
why did he have to get out of his car in the first place...
what was he thinking?
he got away with something, I'm just not sure what to call it
Yup. It leaves me perplexed that someone can kill a kid who was truly up to no harm, until he tried to stand up for himself when he felt persecuted.
Zimmerman just never passed the eye/test with me. The dude seems like he has something wrong with him.
Well. I wonder how this all unfolds.
The evidence for racism in our justice system is there in the conviction rates and harshness of sentences. There is overwhelming statistical evidence for it. The ignorance that is out there is people being unwilling to listen to the evidence that is available.
Yeah... Our country is so racist... We have a black president.
I thought he was Arabic?
Or maybe... Black people are more likely to commit a crime? That sounds harsh, but stereotypes exist for a reason. When your culture thinks it's cool to rape women, kill cops, kill whitey, lie, steal, and cheat then don't be surprised when the culture actually does those things at a higher rate than another culture.
Yes, we are still a racist nation, but if you want to bring up ignorance on one side, you better be willing to look at your own as well.
As for this story -- people who actually thought that Zimmerman was guilty, or that he would be found guilty, should really take a step back and reevaluate their existence. The Thriller thought he was guilty... 'nuff said.
