March 23, 201214 yr Has anyone heard the enhanced audio of Zimmerman's 911 call where it sounds like he mutters a racial slur? I'm curious if anyone else could hear it or thought he said something else.
March 23, 201214 yr Has anyone heard the enhanced audio of Zimmerman's 911 call where it sounds like he mutters a racial slur? I'm curious if anyone else could hear it or thought he said something else. I heard about it but I haven't heard it for myself.
March 23, 201214 yr Why has this gained so much attention, this stuff happens every single day in America. The killer was Hispanic, just think how much news it would have made if the killer was white. Trayvon seemed like he was a very good kid, a tragedy. If the guy did kill him based on color, then he deserves a fate similar. Really? Innocent unarmed black kids get chased down and murdered because they look suspicious and the person who pulled the trigger is still free? I had no idea. And all these years I have been wearing hoodies and never knew I could be shot down at any minute by a deranged vigilante. Glad I know and that it has warmed up. No more hoodies for me. Or my innocent kids. I have truly lost all hope for you. As if there ever was any.

March 24, 201214 yr I am really surprised so many people aren't aware of the Emmitt Till story! I'm not.
March 26, 201214 yr Heard it and he said "coon." Awesome. I'm glad that they got that recorded. Now they have the something to strengthen their case that he trailed the victim based solely on race. Once they get the self defense argument blown out of the water, they may be able to prove that this was a hate crime. Maybe far fetched, but it still appears that he was looking to start trouble with a black person, not acting in the best interest of his community.
March 26, 201214 yr I'm not. If it is not on a reality tv program, a large number of Americans have no clue that it exists or ever existed. We are part of the dumbest group of Americans in our short history. It's really sad.

March 26, 201214 yr Yeah, the scenario in that "Idiocracy" movie looks more and more like where we're headed as a culture. Good movie btw. :lol:

March 26, 201214 yr I think I read somewhere this weekend that the Federal Government is not likely to pursue hate crime charges. It was a link from twitter. I'll see if I can find it.

March 26, 201214 yr Hate crime is punishable by death correct? That I don't know. Depends on the state I believe. I know that it aggravates the crime.
