Nope you ain't. You cannot turn racist over night.
Blaze i have a minor in African American studies, this kind of incident has happened before on multiple occasions and it's tiresome. History is proven time ad time again that the system is racist and ll always be racist. I always identified more with a Malcolm X than a MLK.We need more shepherds and less sheep in this world.
Interesting how people claim they know all the facts when in reality the only people who truly know all the facts are Zimmerman and Trayvon.
I haven't really been keeping track therefore i do not know much, but also i keep hearing two completely different sides of the story and that goes to show the type of facts that people claim they know.
Anyway from what i can remember from my A- level law is that in a civil case the burden of proof is on the balance of probabilities while in a criminal case it has to be beyond reasonable doubt.
From what i have gathered they failed to establish this.
I have read so many cases of people convicted for murder and in some cases on the death penalty and later evidence proves otherwise, while not taking sides i can see why Zimmerman was acquitted and tbh i wasn't surprised, though the self defence plea is rather iffy.
An adult with a gun vs a kid with skittles isn't exactly what id call reasonable force. But i can understand to an extent (again from what i have heard), that Trayvon height and build might have played a part.
On a lighter but, yet serious note, i hope this riot doesn't come about.
But if it does, need not worry. My auntie forcing me to come over and visit her in Oklahoma. I got family in Boston and California as well. So most likely i will visit next year.
With my british accent, which your girls like and how african american girls and white girls alike have a thing for guys with 'good' hair ill not only populate oklahoma, california and boston when i visit my cousins, ill come over to florida and not only restore the population, but double it.
Besides i have a thing for latin/hispanic girls and the few here are mostly in london and i don't live there, so those will be my first priority.
This should also stop some of the race based incidents in that area, because the population would have similar shades and my dna (african, european and caribbean).
To the florida males on here, if your girl has a kid with long black curly hair. Hope you know that you fathering my kid
Nope you ain't. You cannot turn racist over night.
Now when we all get mad, we say things we do not mean and its obvious you do not mean this, come on now.
Btw what your sister saying. You might have me as a brother in law you know *_*
Yes i have also read quiet a lot of cases from unbiased sources, where its clear as day that the system isn't fair.
Yes, this case has hit deep for me. Honestly i don't even want to go to work tomorrow, i really might slap the shyt outta my coworker (i already don't him).
If you are african american then am the heir to the british throne, your whole message suggest otherwise i find it hard to belive that a 17 year old teenager could physically beat an armed guard who must have had defense/fighting classes up to the point he would need to be gunned downl, race always come to play and it diverts real judgement from being carried out,thats the sad fact about the america jury system.
Shoot to injure? Whenever you shoot or stab anyone you can kill them by hitting a major vein or organ. When you shoot someone it is always shoot to kill because you just may kill them, especially when your head is being bashed against concrete and you are just firing at the person ontop of you
Shhhhhh Its not on the news so obviously its not important. We don't want any of those inconvenient little "facts" seeping into our panic and blind rage.
He could have still shot him and injured him. He didn't have to fire directly in the kid's chest. He could have easily fired towards his arms or his legs or his groin. But, again, I still believe that the force was excessive (as I consider it) and that the situation had the potential to end differently if both parties had acted in a smarter manner.
You're confused.

The primary fault for the conflict lies with Trayvon.
So while he is being beat against the concrete he is going to slowly aim for a less vital area or politely ask him to hold still while he shoots him somewhere less-lethal? When you are being beat you don't care where you fire as long as it hits him.
I don't even.
I don't know if it's your analogy, but you're making it sound like Trayvon really deserved to get shot for wearing a hoodie. The two situations you listed are too different to be compared the way you compared them. The way you worded it makes it seem like walking around at night with a hoodie while being black means you may be a gangbanger and you should be shot down before you "cause trouble". Lol I can only hope this is not the point you were trying to get across with your comparison.
