    Considering this involved a Hispanic and a Black what does "white" have to do with it?

    I find it very difficult to believe some "conservative" blogger has the inside scoop on all of that, that the media has somehow magically changed the story around but this blogger is right.

    The police played the 911 tape for the father and the father said the screaming was not his son? How in the holy hell can anyone for a second think that this blogger has the real story on that?

    Which means you are off topic. Thank you for admitting it as nothing in his has anything to do with "white".

    Zimmerman was told by 9/11 dispatcher not to follow the "suspect", Zimmerman not only followed the suspect but confronted him. It would seem that Zimmerman initiated the fight and was about to get his butt kick decided to pull out his gun and shot Trayvon. Zimmerman's action is hardly self defence it is provocation, he should have been disarm until a full investigation and trial is concluded. The action of the police was totally bias and it was because of this that the "stand your ground" law should be reviewed. Trayvon was standing his ground defending himself against Zimmerman's hostile actions against him, does this mean that anyone can just use all necessary deadly force against anyone including police officers?

    I heard the same thing on the radio. Apparently there is a witness that says Trayvon was on top beating Zimmerman. If that is the case, I would think the screams are logically coming from the one on the bottom.

    Frankly I don't know which one is guilty, I just want the guilty punished.

    I didn't know he was 6'2"

    Not that it changes anything since we still don't know what actually happened.

    Right. The radio. What news was that on? Or was it a caller? Why does not a single newspaper mention a witness who saw this?

    I read the same thing. What it doesn't mention is how it got to that point. Trayvon very well could have believed he needed to defend himself against an unknown adult male following him and harassing him.

    Discuss it in those threads then and stop trying to run this thread offtopic. Again you are speaking about a case of a Hispanic and a Black. "White" has nothing to do with it.

    We don't actually know what happened, tex.
    And Zimmerman is Hispanic, not White, Flag.

    Hopefully cooler heads will prevail and we won't see riots and killings over it.
    Sharpton is down there,pissin' gas on the fire. As usual.

    Mob mentality - bad.
    Mob justice - bad.
    I hope no one really wants that. The police have a job to do. The FBI needs to get involved, IMO.

    As a mom, I have to say, this whole thing is just so sad. But justice must be pursued. Real justice, not mob justice.

    "Righties" having nothing to do with this thread nor some attack against "white people".
