All these kids who are dying throughout the United States didn’t deserve to die either. I don’t see the media making big deals out of these stories or the President mentioning these murders are tragic. A girl the other day was killed for her TIP money she makes at Joe’s Crab Shack by three men. These men happened to be black and she was white… Why wasn’t this a main story on the news?[/quote]
Because it wouldn’t get the ratings, attention this case had. If Zimmerman was black this would never have gone beyond local news.

What’s upsetting is that what if Zimmerman didn’t bring his gun with him? He very well could have been on the other side of this situation and Martin could have been on the stand. Would that have made national news? No.

In all reality the skin color of the people involved are irrelevant. Some people just can’t get past that though.
It wasn’t a main story because no one race baited it on the national stage, and there isn’t a reason for CNN to ignore things like innocents slaughtered by Drones, Egyptian coup and Bradly Manning’s trail in that case.

Skin color will always be an issue , because there will always be people who can’t look past it.

3 black people went to jail, one white guy killed somebody. They will turn around and use this stat against you to say blacks are more likely to be criminals.

Right…the majority of an entire Continent?
Usually you would decry a Country…like…you however are lumping Mexico, The United States of America and Canada into one giant derogatory statement.

Interesting there was a 46 page thread full of bitching and moaning, a part 2 yet they still chose to ignore this question.
So because it’s you and I know how our debates go. I am not speaking for everyone, not speaking for all black people, not for all white people or what I think all white think or any other race. Strictly for myself.
I am upset that a mother and father had to lose their child in order for my black friends that do all the can to avoid being “black” to be reminded their and their kids lives have a much lower value then their counterparts.

How in the world does the prosecution’s failure to prove its case amount to this?

I am still waiting for some more real responses.
It sure seems like a lot of emotion from people when none of you were related to those involved.

I just saw that story about the woman who fired warning shots at her husband. That was also prosecuted by the same state attorney in the zimmerman case. Something tells me someone should be looking into this lady
