So, let's
recap:
--A black teenager goes to a convenience store to pick up some
snacks and walks back home
--A wannabe, r.acist cop sees the teenager, gets out of his car,
and follows him because he decides he's
"suspicious"
--A.sshole confronts the unarmed teenager and kills him
--D.ouchebag lawyer starts the proceedings with a f.ucking
knock-knock joke like this is all some kind of game
--Nobody's found guilty of anything (except Trayvon,
who's guilty of being black)
--R.acism is over
also zimmerman isn't white. He's hispanic.
My point it only that you should have your facts straight before you say things like this
The main drugs that make you aggressive are PCP (most extreme; basically makes you lose your mind), cocaine, and meth. I'm pretty sure speed makes you aggressive, too. I doubt if Trayvon was doing those drugs he'd actually be out on the streets. If Trayvon was doing any drugs, it was most likely weed and that drug really doesn't make people aggressive.
Oh, at let's address the fact that YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE WHITE TO BE R.ACIST. If you didn't know yet. B.igotry isn't exclusively a white thing.
But, let's look at the facts:
--First, a man with a gun chose to pursue an unarmed teenager who'd done nothing wrong
--Second, the man with the gun chose to initiate a confrontation with the teenager after he was advised not to
--Third, as a result of the confrontation, the man with the gun shot the teenager to death.
Oh, so the next time I'm walking alone in one of the wealthy neighborhood's that are near where I live, naturally I'll see suspicious. If you look at the facts, there's nothing that can really make Zimmerman look innocent.
--First, a man with a gun chose to pursue an unarmed teenager who'd done nothing wrong
--Second, the man with the gun chose to initiate a confrontation with the teenager after he was advised not to
--Third, as a result of the confrontation, the man with the gun shot the teenager to death.

And, by the way, neighborhood watch is calling the cops because of suspicious activity, not killing a child because of it.

Alright, lets see the comments.

-You didn't actually look into the story because if you did you would realize this is wrong.

if you were educated on the matter you would know that the got into a physical altercation leaving zimmerman with gashes in the back of his head, trayvon was said to have smashed his head against the ground. its not like zimmerman walked up and shot him. he wasnt set out to kill him . he saw him walking along the fence looking at houses in his gated community contacted the police and then after reporting it, he had the encounter with trayvon. which lead to him being shot. i dont think zimmerman is guilty. and i do believe that it was in self defense.
on a slightly different note, i think its alittle rediculous to say that him being shot was ra.cism, when the whole reason this case is so big is because of racial reasons. if trayvon was white. and zimmerman was black, ra.cism wouldnt even be apart of the issue.
*disclaimer: this reply does not necessarily reflect my own feelings about the verdict, purely my analysis of the trial regarding Zimmerman's pursuit of Trayvon.
YOU are the one obsessing over Trayvon's race.
To be truly unprejudiced is to treat Trayvon as if his skin colour did not matter, as if he were any other colour of skin, which is what most informed people are doing.
That's what the jury did. They didn't take his skin colour into account because it has absolutely nothing to do with the case.
Obsessing over it and trying to use it as a point to convict a man is wrong.
If you paid attention to the case, it was an issue of Trayvon looking suspicious as anyone walking with a hood up in a place they don't belong would, and attacking a man. Whether that man should have followed him or not is debatable, but he acted entirely in self-defense as an eyewitness has said.
The court case and the over-all ruling is not connected to a racial issue.
The only reason anybody is saying that it is is because the media blew it up into a thing and made it out to be one. They even created a false term to describe Zimmerman, "white hispanic", to mould it into a race issue.
It becomes a race issue because Trayvon stands for all Black people in America. Black people can literally be stalked and killed for wearing their hood.

And my comments weren't as stupid as yours, seeing as you had to delete your previous one, lol.
His skin colour is not white, if you have actually seen him you can SEE he is hispanic.
And he was not defending himself, he could have continued walking, but he didn't. He stopped and attacked Zimmerman and quite horribly injured him, as photographic evidence can show.
And really, you're not going to be able to convince me of this being a racial issue because had this been a white kid it would never have made the news, which means we have NO idea just how many times something similar has happened to a white kid because it was never blown up by the media the way this was.
But I can see this is a total dead-end conversation, so I'm blocking you and I am done with this because neither of us is going to change the other ones mind and this is not worth it.
Pictures show he was badly beaten and an eyewitness has confirmed Trayvon was the one in control of the fight. Regardless of whether he should have followed him, regardless of why he followed him, he was the one that was attacked and he acted in a case of self-defense.
And were is your proof that if it was a black shooter they would be immediately convicted? What are you basing that off of? Media stereotypes and the general idea of or the fact that it actually happens because last I checked, you can only convict someone if they have gone through trial.
Also I thought I blocked you how were you able to respond to my comment
This isn't your quote, so I can still reply because I'm not blocked by the OP.
I'm sure you are a lovely person, I just don't agree with you and I don't see a point in continuing this conversation as neither of us is being swayed by the other and unless we do just end it on agree to disagree, I feel like it won't have a good ending.
