Makes you wonder

"Everyone's complaining about the Trayvon Martin case !!!!but you'll forget that we still have the OJ Simpson case I know it sounds farked up but we still got one up on these white people!!!!Trayvon Martin die fast!!! Gun shot!!! But oJ Simpson killed two white people with a damn knife!!!! Can't be upset cause oj was found not in 96. So we still got one up on them!!! LMFAO"

WTF are you talking about? I don't like "Stand your ground" law in Florida but because it's a law I have to agree that he is innocent? How the **** do I think now free people deserve to be killed? I'm hoping you just quoted the wrong post.

Hes obviously not innocent of stalking, profiling and killing the kid. They just found him not guilty because of lack of evidence.

Zimmerman started the confrontation by stalking him in the first place, you could say Martin was acting in self-defense against a stalker/potential threat..
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Zimmerman's side of the story was that he got out of his car and was minding his own business when this black guy sneaked up and started attacking him. This BS defense was already discredited.

Its disgusting that the media try to dig up dirt on this kid, showing fking twitter pics of him flicking off the camera and smoking weed, to make Middle America piss their pants, when every facking teen you look up on FB have retarded pics like those. Oh yeah, and making Travyon out to be a racist because of that "creepy ass cracker" comment, to make themselves feel better about their shitty prejudices

Actually he was acquitted of all charges. That's what this topic is about.

After telling the police dispatcher that Martin "ran",[183] Zimmerman left his vehicle to determine his location and ascertain in which direction Martin had fled.[177][184] The dispatcher asked if Zimmerman was following Martin, and Zimmerman replied "Yeah." Then the dispatcher said, "OK, we don't need you to do that." Zimmerman replied with "OK" and stated that Martin got away.[183] After a discussion about where Zimmerman would meet police, the call ended, and Zimmerman told investigators he was returning to his vehicle when Martin approached him from his left rear and confronted him.

Fixed. Only one charge on the trial brah

lol not to mention he's a neighborhood watch, not a police officer, so "stalking" and "profiling" a suspicious person in his gated community isn't really illegal. Given the history of the neighborhood, and his actions, I'd say he was more worried about keeping others safe and not trying to kill an innocent kid.

@Fic

So according to Zimmerman, he chased the suspicious guy (after being told not to by the police btw), the guy fled, then he later sneaked up on him and attacked him.

I'd like to see what "a lot of other racial things" showed that Travyon was prejudice, and why is matters to the case. Are you saying Travyon would have been less likely to feel threatened if it was a black person stalking him?

Zimmerman did go out of his way to start trouble..so erm what.
Media's digging up "dirt" on Travyon to influence normal folks [not jury] is what I'm talking about. Its unfortunate that weed, middle finger and a dark complexion makes anyone in Middle America shit their pants.

Profiling and stalking aren't against the law but the stalker has to be held accountable to some degree . The whole thing happened because Zimmerman thought a black guy in a hoodie walking was suspicious, and started to stalk him even when told not to do so by the police.

The affidavit stated that Martin was walking back from a nearby 7-Eleven store to the townhouse where he was temporarily living when Zimmerman profiled Martin, who was unarmed and not committing a crime.[10][31] Prosecutors stated that Zimmerman was driving in his vehicle when he observed Martin and assumed he was a criminal.[10] Feeling that Martin did not belong in the gated community where Zimmerman lived, he called the police to request an officer to respond, because he perceived that Martin was acting suspiciously.[10][31] Investigators said the dispatcher told Zimmerman an officer was on the way and to wait for him.[10][31] In the call, Zimmerman made reference to people he felt had gotten away with break-ins in the neighborhood, and while talking about Martin, stated "these assholes, they always get away" and also said "these Farking punks".[10][31][206]
According to investigators, while Zimmerman was speaking with police, Martin was on the phone with a friend and described to her what was happening. She said that Martin was scared because he was being followed by an unknown male and didn't know why.[10][206] Investigators said that Martin attempted to run home, but Zimmerman followed him, because he didn't want Martin whom he falsely assumed was going to commit a crime, to get away before the police arrived.[10][205] When the police dispatcher realized Zimmerman was pursuing Martin, he instructed Zimmerman not to do that and told him an officer would meet him.[31] Prosecutors stated that Zimmerman ignored the dispatcher's instruction and continued pursuing Martin on foot.[204] Investigators said Zimmerman then confronted Martin and a struggle ensued.[10][31]

@Budo: It doesn't justify what happened to him but I would be dishonest if I say that I think that he's a "loss" for society. I wouldn't disagree that he is a great loss for his parents or his close peers but to others, the world is a much better place without another juvenile delinquent in it. Who knows, maybe he would've grown out of his idiotic "thug" mindset if he lived a couple more years or maybe not; the thing is, he was just another unnecessary nuisance to humanity and I definitely won't miss having people like him around.

Wonder what would have happened if he was a scrawny kid with a light complexion and glasses. I guess most of SRF, myself included is same in that respect..

He wouldn't have been seen as "suspicious" and none of this would have happened. Scrawny white kid vs. scrawny black kid
