July 11, 201313 yr Again, that is your opinion that GZ racially profiled TM when there is no proof whatsoever. Do I think it was ignorant for GZ to follow TM? Yes, but ignorance is not a crime. I think the media, from the beginning, has tried to make America think this was a racially motivated crime. Before this incident, I've never heard anyone referred to as a "white Hispanic". The media wants everyone to think GZ is white so we can have the classic black vs. white conflict which, of course, means that GZ was racially profiling because all white people are racist, right? No, the fact that GZ made 7 911 calls to report suspicious blacks in the 6 months leading up to the incident is what tells me the whole incident was started because TM was black. Funny how he made 0 911 calls to report suspicious people of any other race.
July 11, 201313 yr State says a better way of handling the situation by GZ would have been to say "hey you look suspicious - can you wait here while the police are on their way - it won't take long." Come on.

Funny how he made 0 911 calls to report suspicious people of any other race. So what? From what we have found subsequently, TM was also a racist, wasn't he? Had GZ been black instead of a "creepy cracker", would TM have turned around and confronted him? I wonder.

I wonder. :lol: TM is a racist for referring to the loser that was stalking him as a cracker? Wow, next thing you're going to say is he deserved it. So what? You find nothing wrong with calling the cops on someone who was minding their own business walking home because of their skin color?
July 11, 201313 yr Definitely did not deserve to die. Definitely not the innocent 12 year old kid in all those pictures the media put out there either.

July 11, 201313 yr I just think that sometimes people of the same race tend to interact with each other different than they do with people of other races.
July 11, 201313 yr I just think that sometimes people of the same race tend to interact with each other different than they do with people of other races. Black-on-black crime is more common than black-on-white crime.
July 11, 201313 yr One thing I find very alarming is that so many on here find it acceptable to racially profile. I seriously had thought that practice was universially thought of as unacceptable. :rolleyes:Don't fall when you climb down off your high horse.
July 11, 201313 yr So if there have been a rash of break ins in my neighborhood by Asians and I see an Asian person I don't recognize walking in front of my house I'm a racist if I call the cops?
July 11, 201313 yr So if there have been a rash of break ins in my neighborhood by Asians and I see an Asian person I don't recognize walking in front of my house I'm a racist if I call the cops? If all they're doing is walking? I don't know if I'd say you're racist, but you're definitely being prejudiced.
July 11, 201313 yr If all they're doing is walking? I don't know if I'd say you're racist, but you're definitely being prejudiced. I thought he said he was waking in the rain and appeared to be looking in windows.
July 11, 201313 yr State says there was no blood on Trayvon's hands and that shows he wasn't on top of him. Not sure how he can make that leap. State says a better way of handling the situation by GZ would have been to say "hey you look suspicious - can you wait here while the police are on their way - it won't take long." Come on. If that is what they are trying to sell then good luck. Sounds like they are trying to go with the "he-said, he would have said argument."
July 11, 201313 yr Let me say though I have quit trying to handicap jury's verdicts. It would not shock me to see a verdict of guilty with him getting the death penalty next week. You never know how jurors will react.
July 11, 201313 yr If that is what they are trying to sell then good luck. Sounds like they are trying to go with the "he-said, he would have said argument." Closing arguments have centered on lies and the fact that GZ followed him and initiated it.
