Trayvon Martin case? More about justice or race?

That's just pitiful. We need unbiased reporting right now as the situation is a powder keg.

 

No doubt. It's sad to see the media taking an active and careless role in such a volatile situation.

Every news outlet is a business. They care more about ratings and revenue than the actual and objective. We'll never know what happened. It's like looking at an abstract painting and never seeing what the person next to you sees. The unfortunate part is that this is so racially charged that if Zimmerman is found innocent, and the evidence truly shows that he is, it won't matter. Either way here, justice will never be properly served, for either the victim or the transgressor.

The things I mentioned are evidence. Apparently the detective felt there was enough evidence to charge him. The prosecutor, who eventually resigned for whatever reasons, denied him. Any half-witted person can put some sort of semblance of the event together based on what we know. I believe Zimmerman should be arrested. But, I also believe Trayvon whipped his arse real good before he got killed. The evidence suggests to me that they had contact initiated by Zimmerman so Trayvon decided to "stand his ground". Zimmerman killed him trying to play Starsky and Hutch by himself. If life in Sanford was "The Wire" he'd be Prezbo. Killed an unarmed person without legitimate provocation, and has major connections through family.

So go on with your holier than thou "worst posts I've ever read" biz

What evidence? The only evidence they had was Zimmerman's story and an eye witness that saw half of what happened. And the part he/she saw supported Zimmerman. Everything is your post quote here is assumptions nothing more. ZERO evidence to support any of it. There is nothing to suggest there was contact initiate by Zimmerman. And unless Zimmerman put his hands on Martin first there is no self defense or stand your ground for Martin. The only evidence they have, at least that's been released, suggests the exact opposite of what you're saying. It suggests that Martin attacked and beat Zimmerman. You want to throw Zimmerman in jail because you don't like him and you've been played by the media. I will say it again, let the process work and see where it goes. Quit rushing to judgement and convicting people based on what media outlets like ABC are feeding you.

A lot of people and posters have been played by the media.

Isn't all of the info coming from the media and not just one side of the stoy?

What about the police chief being let go because of how he handled the investigation? Does that not count for anything?

I dont know what to believe or think except the media plays their own horn. (Ratings)

Not saying otherwise. My point about the media is the pictures that are being shown of both, the doctored 911 call, and video.

I don't know does it? I don't think we know enough info about any of this to form an opinion on that. Wasn't it the police chief that got the feds involved?

You rush to judgement every time you say that Martin attacked Zimmerman. No evidence suggests that. Evidence does suggest that, besides the fatal bullet wound, that Zimmerman got the worse end of a physical confrontation. It does not suggest who caused it, other than Zimmerman did get out of his vehicle.

Please show me where I stated it Martin attacking Zimmerman was a fact? Last time I checked getting out of your vehicle is not a crime. It also doesn't give Martin the right to attack Zimmerman (if that is what happened, not saying it is).

Yet, you say it all the time and get on everyone else about their own speculation. The inference is that what you are saying is based on evidence while others are jumping to conclusions.

The media keeps showing Trayvon when he was like 12 or 14 yrs old. In the picts he looks like a little innocent kid, which is what the media wants you to think. But he is a 17 yr old kid who dont look like a little kid anymore. It is portrayed like he was some little kid out looking to help an old woman cross the street. The only person who knows what he was up to is dead.

Me either. That's disheartening.
