Frankly, I cant be bothered to shed many tears for George Zimmerman. While apparently having two black eyes, a fractured nose, and an injured back in the scuffle with Trayon Martin, there is a little fact some people seem to be overlooked: George Zimmerman murdered Trayvon Martin.
Does no one remember how, because Travyon was a black kid in a nice neighborhood, wearing a hoodie, Zimmerman stalked him against the orders of 911 operators and killed him.
How he did it doesnt matter. Did Trayvon eventually confront Zimmerman, causing a scuffle? Its possible. But when youre being followed by a man at night, while youre doing nothing wrong, it stands to reason youd want to find out why. We dont know exactly what happened on that tragic night, except that two men entered, but only one left alive.
George Zimmerman deserves no sympathy. He wasnt the product of a broken system. He exploited the system for his own prejudiced gains, to enable him to become a vigilante who hunts down the innocent of society.
Lets mourn Travyon and the countless others killed by a racist law enforcement system, not some murderer who had a few scrapes on his face.
Oh, he'd probably make a fine journalist.
For starters, the little lib doesn't know the difference between homicide and murder.
Just like all other left-leaning journalists.
“Great legal mind.”
Yeah, its funny how the finer points of the law ( ie the elements of self defense under state law) don’t matter in cases like this. Yet they are so much more sophisticated than right-wing simpletons/s
Ah, it’s good to be 17 and know everything.
What? We’re posting opinion pieces from high school blogs now?
Liberal employers aren't going to stay employers for long. One can't manage a business from a tent in Zuccotti park. Conservatism is a quality of a successful businessman.
Which means Devlin will have to expend some effort to find a job - assuming, of course, that he has an intention to do so at some point in his life. Employers of any political orientation - even liberals - will find his blog and ask themselves "Do we really need an uninformed idiot in our midst who makes a decision regardless of facts? That's not a smart thing to do in a business."
They are not trying to educate morons they are trying to make morons.
must be Amish....:)

Lets see now.. you must have been raised in a single parent household with about 10 other step-siblings, your sperm donor is not in the picture and your 'mommy' is on welfare and Drugs.
bet you are the RACIST...
Write an article when your brain has matured to the degree of composing a truely thoughtful and reasonable analysis of the facts. And dont base your superficial ultimate conclusions based on silly prepubescent notions given you by your Mommy.
You just described 90% of the journalists employed by the liberal media.
The author is revealed in the very title of this sad article. For his world to work, there must be victims.
There is no such thing as personal responsibility, the rule of law, justice or right and wrong in this addled mind.
There are only victims who are entitled, and those who need to support victims. Individual merit and actions are nothing, groups and race are everything.
This is the racism of the left on display. The author is a bigot, willing to give victim Trayvon a pass for any criminal behavior because he was a member of a victim race and his life was ended by someone who doesn’t enjoy equal victim status, and who chose to defend himself, rather than wait for the state to come save him while he was beaten, perhaps to death.
It’s time to quit playing nice and call out these racists for what they are.
It happens, and isn't always adversarial.
