Answer me this: what caused Zimmerman such consternation upon seeing a person walking through his neighborhood?

Like many FReepers, he was sure that any black person, especially one with a hoodie on, must be a criminal. So he went out to confront the person and then ended up shooting him.

Sorry, I can’t defend any of that.

You haven’t taken the time to read the police reports or listen to the 911 calls have you?

I believe it was the incredible number of burglaries in his neighborhood in recent months. When is "enough"?

I agree and I have read the reports and I have listened to the tapes.

I won’t demonize Zimmerman. I think he truly was fed up with all the burglaries in his neighborhood and figured he could follow this Martin and somehow prevent him from leaving till the cops got there. The problem with that is he made the judgment that Martin was guilty without having any probable cause to do so.

if someone has a hoodie on over their head, how do you know the skin color of the person?

are their special hoodie penetrating glasses?

also this is FL, just how cold was it to require a hoddie?

The neighborhood was 49% white. There were black neighbors of Zimmerman who liked him and appreciated his efforts in the neighborhood watch. I cannot believe such an old timer as you are so full of idiocy, spouting msm lies and you apparently refuse to read anything other than the lies.
