Out after dark in the rain? Wasn't known to Z?
Z was credited with helping in more then one crime ya know.
What did T do that was suspicious??
Rallys for Trayvon. Glad to see it...
You're the one who stated Mr. Zimmerman was working with the police. I merely observed that any legitimate neighborhood watch "work" was completed when the police were informed of a suspicious person in the neighborhood and informed Mr. Zimmerman that an officer had been dispatched in response to his report.You act like he was being paid or somethi9ng. He did what he did out of c0poncern for his neighborhood.

His observation and report certainly were done out of concern for his neighborhood. I shall not speculate what motivated his further acts.
Only going on b/c of Martin's family not being satisfied with the Sanford Police investigation which the Sanford Police have stated was a thorough investigation.
The Rev. Al Sharpton was more strident: "We did not come here for a temporary leave of absence," he said. "We came for permanent justice -- arrest Zimmerman now!"\

I don't think it's too hard to imagine how T could have looked suspicious.
This garners 19 likes.You can tell just by looking at that picture of Zimmerman that he is
nothing more than a punk and was looking for someone, anyone, to shoot
eventually.
8 likesZimmerman probably thought the same thing of the teenager when he shot him. Good job of profiling. Now go look in the mirror and realize you're both the same.
Not at all hard to imagine when looking through racist eyes...
Walking slowly, looking around, raising hood when he's spotted by someone, running away. It's easy now with hindsight to say he wasn't doing anything suspicious, but for residents who have been plagued with burglaries, I don't think it's unreasonable for a person to be on the lookout and to find T suspicious.

Zimmerman's family has denied that race played a role, saying he has many minority relatives and friends.
"The portrayal of George Zimmerman in the media, as well as the series of events that led to the tragic shooting, are false and extremely misleading," his father wrote in a letter published in the Orlando Sentinel. "Unfortunately, some individuals and organizations have used this tragedy to further their own causes and agendas."
"George is a Spanish-speaking minority with many black family members and friends," Robert Zimmerman wrote. "He would be the last to discriminate for any reason whatsoever."

Did any of the suspicious activity I cited have anything to do with his race? Nope.
But I guess thinking an african american person looks suspicious of anything is automatic racism, right?

Has anyone ever considered that the reason 911 dispatchers suggest not pursuing someone is because in the vast majority of cases that's the best option?
Unfortunately he probably pissed that all away with a series of bad decisions that ended in a death...

You're right! There's no way his father would say nice things about him because, well, he's his father. No doubt he calls his many black friends and relatives "fucking coons" when he greets them with a hearty smile at the neighborhood block party. "I love you, ya fucking coons!"
As I have repeatedly said in this thread, I don't think this incident was a hate crime but that doesn't mean Mr. Zimmerman doesn't harbor racist thoughts. His own words suggest that he does. I just don't know that it's relevant.
I wasn't addressing you so back the fuck off.
Ah - so we can only speak when spoken to on this board now? Tell me more, master - I have much to learn!

I was replyiong to someone who was claiming that it was a racist act and you try to quote me as if i were directly addressing you. Did I hurt your ego somehow esarlier? And your last comment, is that really the best a big city lawyer can do?? :hmm:
Awwww this is cute.. look at Spidey, dreaming of the day he gets to become a "man" in the eyes of his redneck peers by shooting someone.Stay ready Florida and other states. Make sure you're prepared.
Stay safe Americans. Prep and be ready. Learn from history the flames being stoked. Be ready.
