    Zimmerman was the neighborhood watch captain. According to an eye witness Trayvon(TM) knocked Zimmerman down then got on top of him and started smashing his head into the pavement. That's Zimmerman on the recording screaming for his life. Yes, although we don't know all the facts from what is coming out it appears this may have been a racially motivated attack by Trayvon(TM.) And regarding the family finding out "the truth" -- that would likely lessen the value of the copyright of the Trayvon(TM) brand. And it is already being investigated by federal, state and local government. They are finding out "the truth" - family man and neighborhood watch captain Zimmerman viciously attacked by a 6'3" drug addled maniac for trying to do his job.

    LMAO...The "usual race baiters" are the right-wingers, so I would agree with you.

    Isn't his father white, but I guess when you want to make a point just the race of his pervuian mother counts.

    I think most black folks are smart enough to know a racist, piece of (*)(*)(*)(*) when they see one. Believe me we have had years of experience to work from.

    Back in the sixties when a black guy was killed the right wing white citizens councils also stood up for the white guy, it didnt matter what really happened.
    Now in 2012 the branch of white citizens councils is dead but the right wingers keep the same spirit.

    Trayvon Martin is the latter-day Tawana Brawley.

    i'm sure that is what you see. But then Zimmerman isn't white. AND rightwingers are concerned about this lynchmob mentality.

    Like Obama I suppose it depends on what Zimmerman calls himself.

    When it suits their agenda liberals are fond of saying that Obama is half white.

    But in reality Obama rejects the white half of his heritage and refers to himself as black.

    It was not right wingers who assigned the term 'white' Hispanic. Sharpton and Jesse are not right wingers nor are the Black Panthers or Farakhan....

    Ha-Ha!

    You are correct, ELOrocks.

    The liberals and leftists are playing this tragic incident for all it is worth!

    The more people tune in and read or listen to their news reports, the more money these news outlets can charge their advertisers.

    This “fever-pitch” coverage is driven only by the profit motive and nothing else.

    They could care less about Trayvon Martin. They are using the death of this poor child to increase their “bottom line” and advance their own political agenda!

    It's hard to decide if Florida is trying to crank up the race war for the election, or trying to get the "stand your ground law" overturned. If Zimmerman would have been charged with murder to begin with, there would not have been any attention given to the law. But now it looks like there will be a national referendum to have the law overturned in all states. Public opinion has it ten to one against the law. It may even replace the economy as the number one issue in the election. Too bad for the cons.

    ...I disagree...I don't think the liberal media is that complex or smart...I think it's more along the lines of "it makes me feel better about myself showing I care" to point out the injustice, but like the mom that goes into her child's school to point out them being bullied or whatever, they don't realize the reprecutions of their actions..."all I wanted to do was help" while the people are rioting in the streets...

    Yes, it's important to have dreams and hopes that you can cherish and hang onto.

    It's only 10 to 1 because the American public is stupid and is listening to the propaganda networks known as the network and cable media.

    nope--bigotry is human nature..everyone is a bigot in some way. Id say 90% of blacks are bigoted against whites. Just like 90% of Latinos are bigoted against blacks..
