The FACTS in this case are pointing to exactly that. "Wants" are irrelevant. | ||||||

| jonnythan Bringer of rad mirth  Here and there, | #18 Mar 28, 2012 @ 01:04:28The "FACTS" are pointing to an armed wannabe-cop starting a confrontation with an innocent man because his skin was the wrong color. A confrontation that ends up with the armed cop wannabe shooting the unarmed innocent black man in the chest and killing him. | ||||||

A Hispanic man with Black family... who spends his free time volunteering to help Black children... and volunteering to help his community... now you want me to believe that he broke his own nose... beat himself up... just to have an excuse to shoot a Black man. It just don't fly, Wilbur. | ||||||

| xLETHAL_VIXENx Logical Alien  Your pants, United States (gen | #20 Mar 28, 2012 @ 01:12:42I'd be suspicious as well, but I don't go around shooting people. I get extremely nervous when those guys walk through my yard, thinking they're going to look in my car or house windows and come back late at night to steal. To kill though? Yikes, not my MO. | ||||||

I guess you were not looking suspicious enough or your love of cheese threw them off, since we are stereotyping here, we all know how much white people love cheese. The cheese countered the hoodie. | ||||||

Spinkiegirl Chicago, Illinois | #23 Mar 28, 2012 @ 01:17:18 @hoppy Said Trayvon doesn't sound like the angelic little boy he's portrayed. As George Zimmerman's supporters work to stem the rising tide of public outrage aimed at the neighborhood watchman who shot and killed Florida teenager Trayvon Martin last month, a new picture of the victim—culled from the 17-year-old's Twitter account and witness testimony leaked from local law enforcement—has emerged. link [news.yahoo.com] Tracy Martin, the father of the slain teen, said police told him that Zimmerman's background was "squeaky clean." However, ABC News reported, public records show that Zimmerman was charged with battery against on officer and resisting arrest in 2005, a charge that was later "expunged" from his record. That allowed him to legally obtain the weapon he was carrying the night of the shooting. So it's ok in this horrific case that the poor 17yr. DIDN'T have a criminal record and had NEVER been arrested, but the shooter in FACT did? Talk about who's "INNOCENT" here! | ||||||

And he was charged with domestic assault too and guess what he said then, he said she started it and he defended himself. Interesting that so many people have attacked him for no reason. | ||||||

But you know what though, you posted a pic of the ones who bother you when they go through your yard and one of them was white so this means to me its not the color who is scaring you but more so the type of person. That is understandable. Its not understandable to only be scared because of someone because they are black. | |||||||

I judge people by their attire, remember? | ||||||

I just wanted to make sure no one thought you were suspicious because they are black, you were only suspicious due to bad fashion, no matter who wears said bad fashion.  | ||||||
