[Intelligent Discussion] Zimmerman Trial

[McDreary The Hapless Hamster]

A quick Google told me on average there are ,in the US, 40 murders a day. Most of which are probably not justifiable. This one is debatable on whether it was justified to shoot him. I feel that maaaaaaayyyyybe we should care more about the other 39 daily murder victims. Instead of this "incident" shit happens yo. And people should move past the shit.

The reason the Zimmerman Trial has attracted so much attention is because it demonstrates the flaws in the Stand Your Ground Law and highlights race issues.

If you kill someone in a SYG state, and there's no witnesses, you could get away with it as 'self-defense'.

The more likely reason this has attracted to much attention is because of the mainstream media involvement.

Yeah I meant something like why it's considered more important than the other murders, which yes, does usually bring the media attention.

I actually heard about it through non-mainstream online news.  Anyone watch TYT?

I absolutely can't see how this case is more important then things that were mentioned in this video:

...and yet those things never really got this much media attention as the Zimmerman case did.
   The whole race thing is beyond stupid since Zimmerman isn't white, if I remember correctly the 30 minute video does go into further details about this.

Still think that the decision was wrong?

By the way, he still has his right to have a firearm http://abcnews.go.com/US/george-zimmerman-gun-back-buy/story?id=19713692

I gave up reading the comments. 75% of it consisted as "HURR DURR STAGED".

Some people can't handle the truth outside of their own little worlds very well.

I'm going to admit that I know fairly little about this case though I do understand the base of it and haven't been reading this thread much but seriously Prox, it's not only Caucasians that can be racist wtf?

He's talking about the people calling Zimmerman a "fucking cracker" , "whitey", etc. and painting it as a white hate crime, even though there is a lot of evidence to the contrary.

I read it and it sounded to me like he was saying Zimmerman couldn't have been doing it as a hate crime because he's not white.

>latino
>white
But according to the media it is the same thing since they're all making it seem like a white against black racism while it should be latino against black racism. Why is this like that? Because clearly a white against black racism would cause more drama and public out rage and just look how well it worked not to mention that there is not only no proof that he was racism, but there is proof that he wasn't. No attention by the media in there.

So believe it or not your green texting actually tells me nothing as to if I'm misinterpreting what you're saying or not. scratch that after the edit
Never mind then, after reading the last few comments in the thread then yours it seemed like you were simply saying it's not racist because he's not white, didn't realize what point you were trying to make.
Out of curiosity though, what's the proof that the crime wasn't due to racism? Not challenging anything you're saying or w.e just want to know outright what that is without going through all the posts to find out.

Haha, ZimZam is back.

I wonder if the timing of this is just a coincidence with the Syrian issue.

I still don't see why they set the house on fire...
