    The media and Trayvon's supporters have got it all wrong they kept insisting that Zimmerman was a racist and that he shoot Trayvon because he is a black person and that Zimmerman is a racist white man.

    First of all Zimmerman is not a white man he is a brown man
    Secondly he did not shot Trayvon because he was a black person but because Zimmerman was defending himself
    Thirdly Zimmerman approach Trayvon to confirm if Trayvon was a burglar or not not to check on the color of his skin.

    Zimmerman followed Trayvon because he was black.

    You don't have to be white to be racist.

    You don't have to be overtly racist to let prejudice effect your choices.

    It was racist of Zimmerman to follow Trayvon.

    What the hell has racist drivel to do with it? He thought he had a right to murder a young person for being 'black' - just like so many of the screeching enemies of the human race posting here.

    Who the (*)(*)(*)(*) gave him the governance of anyone's property? He was just a racist bully, like all the rest.

    Is this a "gut feeling", or parroting what the media is saying? There is absolutely nothing that indicates Zimmerman followed Martin because he was black. Just because the victim was black is not proof that race was involved.

    No, a person doesn't need to be white to be a racist.....and many people in the media and the ones that are stirring the "race pot" are proof of that.

    Everybody lets prejudice affect their choices. That does not mean that those prejudices are because of racial feelings or intentions.

    Why? Because TM was black? Maybe GZ didn't like young men, as TM wasn't a woman.

    Based on what proof?

    Unless it isn't.

    What makes you feel that you are seeing "ducks"? Just because TM was black?

    I don't need any proof, nor do I have any interest in trying to change your mind.

    So, no proof and it is a "gut feeling" just because TM was black?

    You are wrong about your assumptions of my gender. I wonder what other assumption you are wrong about.

    Are people suspicious of Asians?

    What about Hindus? Native Americans?

    Nope. People are suspicious of blacks, Muslims and to a lesser extent, Hispanics.

    Because those people commit crimes and terrorist acts.

    That doesn't matter. The overwhelming majority of people aren't criminals or terrorists. Those innocent people have a right not to be a victim of prejudice.

    No - because their masters give them a licence to kill those people, to make believe they are still 'free'.

    Of course it matters.

    When I was a teenager I paid more in car insurance because young males cause the most accidents.

    The insurance company assessed the risk of insuring me.


    That's exactly what life is, one big risk assessment.


    There have been a lot. A LOT of white folks who've been the victims of interracial crime because they didn't want to appear racist, against their better judgment.

    Better judgment is another way of saying risk assessment

    I think the sentence should finish with....''and it was young Blacks that had been terrorizing the area''

    Had young Mexicans been vandalizing that area I'm sure one of them would have been viewed as suspicious. Same would go for skinheads and such. However lets remember all the folks and the prosecuter that pointed to Zimmerman and said...''Wanna be Cop''

    Wanna be Cops want to be the Hero, he would have followed anybody that seemed out of place, it's the Bust he wants, not the color. Do you think it would matter to him if he caught a white guy?
    A Bust is what a wanna be wants.

    It's only my opinion, but it's also common sense.

    He should be following the white male with his shirt tucked in, posture straight, face uncovered, and using an umbrella in the rain. Alot of break-ins in the neighborhood with this profile lately.

    Yup.

    A wannabe cop met a wannabe thug and it turned out the way it did.

    And young black males shouldn't be getting up into people's houses but here we are.

    Maybe he shouldn't, but it's not illegal to follow someone. So it's a moot point.
