Trayvon Martin Case

[Chico23231]

I dont think they will be riots, but I believe there will be protests and deservedly so if Zim is found innocent on all charges. LA riots were completely a different thing. There werent just a few bad apples in the LAPD, most of the police officers were criminals with badges under a culture of corrupt that spread way beyond just the LAPD.

Why should there be protests? Well most people think you should not be able to shoot an unarmed child even if you are getting beat up in an arguement you provoked.

'Unarmed child'. Also referred to as 'the assailant'.

Was he committing a crime? Fact: No

Was he being harrassed by an unknown, creepy, armed man who hold zero authority over him? Fact: Yes

Right up to the point where he got physical with Zimmerman, no, he was not. Once he assaulted Zimmerman, yes. FACT.

He was being followed, yes. Harassed? We haven't had evidence he felt threatened.

Martin didn't know Zimmerman was armed, didn't know Zimmerman had no authority. What was preventing Martin from running back to the apartment he was watching TV at? Nothing. He chose, inadvisedly, to confront Zimmerman. FACT.

Creepy? WTF does that have to do with anything?

Sorry look up the def of harrassed. Talking about creepy wasn't it not Marting who used a racial slur. If it was the other way around thats all we would hearing about.

Apparently it only counts when it suits the purposes of race baiters.

This case has been worked so hard by the media I'm not surprised that some easily influenced fools are being led to a conclusion that the facts don't support.

The way the PD handled the event was appalling. At the very least Zimmerman should have been arrested on the suspicion of murder.

Most people are too apathetic to riot. I can't imagine a situation where we (the silent majority) would show the Government our displeasure if it took more than a mouse click.
