Praise God thank you..... I am tired of this forum making it seem like its just me.

BLACK PEOPLE ARE IN TROUBLE especially black males.

America is called home of the free aka "The Freeland"

but in America a white man can get away with killing a black teenager.

In American a police or law enforcement figure can get away with murdering a young black teen

This is the home of the free?

This is the home of EQUALITY for all?

BULL****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

from what i remember trayvon was beating the **** out of zimmerman when he shot him. so basically yea even turning around and confronting your stalker verbally is really the wrong way to go about it. keep going and see if they do anything. if they do then you have the right to defend yourself. you don't have to seek out that confrontation. but even if you do seek it out and then you get in a fight, you don't need to sit there beating his ass. that's not self defense that's just fighting. usually it'll get you assault charges. in this case it got him shot which is self defense since really you can get beat to death pretty easily. again, i acknowledge zimmerman brought the ass beating on himself but the way the law works what he did was still technically legal regardless of race or anything else.

Are you on about guns here?

Zimmerman should have went to jail and This cop should have been indicted...period.

[John Wilkes Booth]

i don't think he should have went to jail for murder to be honest cause his defense never cited stand your ground it was just basic self defense. being an *******/stalker doesn't negate your right to self defense. i do think though if i was in charge i would take away his 2nd amendment rights cause he seems like the wrong type to have a gun to me.

But how is getting out the car instigating an altercation self defense?

He instigated that altercation with Trayvon Martin.


He obviously wanted to fight him, so how was that self defense?

Well, yeah I suppose. Would have stopped this all in its tracks if there weren't any guns. I feel this verdict really highlights a great number of issues though.

he instigated an altercation but there is a difference between instigating and getting physical. it is legal to be a stalkerish *******. not recommended and not good manners, but legal.
