This is starting to get play. No way it gets swept under the rug now, there'll be boycotts, threats of boycotts, etc.
The federales will come in with their own investigation powers. It seems George Z. is laying VERY low right about now (this is an action I'm sure Trayon's attorneys will play up in any trial.) |

sign the petition to prosecute his killer.
http://www.change.org/petitions/prosecute-the-killer-of-17-year-old-trayvon-martin |
| I heard one of the 911 tapes on the news last night. The boy was pleading for his life and for someone to help him. When the gun shot was heard, the cries for help stopped. He was dead. |
| I have a biracial son and we live in a predominantly white neighborhood and this literally turns my stomach. My heart goes out to this boy's family. |
I heard it, too. It was bone chilling. That poor child. |
I've seen that the recordings have been available online for the past few days, but I can't bring myself to listen to them. |
| I signed the petition and posted it on my facebook, am praying for this family, and wish I could do more. How can Trayvon's killer not be in jail?? |
| the victim looks like he is 12. how the heck did this guy mistake him for threatening? |
| If Zimmerman isn't arrested within the next 2 weeks, things are going to get very uncomfortable in that part of FL. I imagine that the racial tension must be incredibly high. |
|
I want some cops to lose their jobs over this with no benefits, if not serving jail time.
Where are all the racism deniers now? |
|
I can't imagine being one of these cops now. Would it do the cops any good to resign? No one will save their ass on this one. Zimmerman is Hispanic, but so many seem to think he is white, I guess because of his name? Did he do that on purpose? Wow. He must be racist if he thought that was going to somehow help him. The victim's family deserves justice in every single way. This speaks volumes to overzealous neighbors who can't mind their own business over the stupidest things. God forbid they have a license to carry a weapon! Harassment and murder over skittles....really? How so, so needless. Some people don't know when to say when. Yikes. |
| 21:56, Hispanic is an ethnicity, not a race. It's possible to be both Hispanic and White (see Italians, Jews, etc). |
| on top of that, just because you're "hispanic" doesn't mean you can't be racist. i mean.. that's pretty basic. |
