If he had been shot, he would be "Hispanic" or "Jewish."

Probably not. Judaism passes down through the mother
This is becoming a terrible situation, with hate groups like the black panthers using it as an excuse to cause violence. They need to go away and take that camera-loving Al Sharpton with them.
But whomever started what, when the truth comes out, it may be that two men did the wrong thing at the wrong time, and ended up in an altercation that had tragic consequences. No racism, no hate crime-just a dreadful lack of judgement on the part of both of them.
Of course. And from each point of view, that's exactly what happened.
Thanks Cboldt. I hadn’t seen that.
The race-haters and the Institutional Left apparently dont care about evil BLACK-ON-WHITE crimes like this one:

Yo man... This is 10x worse than George Zimmermans crime. Not a peep outta Jesse Jerkson or Al Sharptongue. I wonder why.
Pass that link around, folks!!
Do you really think facts matter? Since when?
I live in Florida - went out for a while yesterday - and noticed very large numbers of Hispanics shopping... talking to each other - and occasionally to me. A bunker mentality was being formed. I've never experienced that before. Just market place chat - but different. We'll have to wait and see what comes of this...
Because the picture of Zimmerman is a “guilty” shot when he was booked. Curiously, he’s a “White” Hispanic now, yet the picture they choose to show is similar to that of an MS-13 gang member.
Secondly, because the “Trayvon All Grown Up” picture shows us EXACTLY what he was. Now, the media couldn’t backup Obama’s squeaky non-threatening black image and he-coulda-been-my-son if they showed what kind of a thug Trayvon really was.
Let the blacks riot, they’ll only push the rest of us to the limit one day. As it is now, all their bleating falls on my deaf ears, anyway.
Because they are content in him being described as a “White” hispanic, that’s why.
We know two facts; martin is dead and you made up your mini-mind that Zimmerman was guilty and now are as squiggly as any liberal squish.
Jumped to conclusions with so many other "conservative FReepers" and now are looking for cover, ummm, ahhh, let's wait for the facts.
You can put down your shovel, but it would be better to stand up and say, I screwed up and convicted a guy without knowing shit about the case.
You wannabe conservatives are worse than the dummies at least they don't pretend to be conservative.
Just so. And instead of all this hysteria, people should be able to grasp the fact that s*** does happen, no matter how advanced we humans are-we still screw up. But no-now everything has to have a sinister cause and effect-and a civil lawsuit or three before all is said and done. If I were God, I’d be having some serious second thoughts about humans...
When Seconds Count, the police are only Minutes Away. Most of the time they are there to bag’n’tag the body and to write up a crime scene report, about which nothing usually is successfully concluded - unless, of course, it is a poweratti-connected victim.
Let’s cover the things the media leaves out. When police arrived on the scene, they encountered Zimmerman, who admitted to being armed and turned over his weapon. It is stated in the police report that Zimmerman’s back was wet and that it had grass stains, consistent with his statements and that of a witness identified as “John”, that he was on the bottom as he scuffled with Martin. Zimmerman was treated by the Sanford EMS for injurires to the nose and the back of his head. He was taken to the police station and by all accounts, was not given Miranda warnings, which means his presence there was not “custodial” in nature. He gave the statement that he was screaming for help. This is corroborated by the 911 call which the media had portrayed as Martin screaming for help. Zimmerman’s clothes were removed and vouchered as evidence and he was released. All of this goes to explain why he wasn’t arrested. The evidence did NOT establish probable cause. In fact, it goes a long way to establishing reasonable doubt.
Meanwhile, a white computer shop owner was murdered on Friday in Lancaster, CA by a young black male wearing a hoody, I don’t see anyone in the media asking for this guy’s head on a silver platter or any of these black groups putting a bounty on his head.
Facts in the case are optional.....it has been too long since it was Big Screen TV open season. They just need the ever so slightest excuse to start hunting and looting for that 1080p and a PS3. It sure looks like we are on the brink of it.

Nothing will be said about a white mans murder because white people have to be pc and fear upsetting the black community.
I wish liberals would be honest and admit the only reason they are pc in public is because they fear black retribution which in fact is racist.
I really wish you angry people would stop with the name-calling and accusations. These thread are one sided because most people are tired of being bashed just for pointing out that the facts don’t always match the hype. Your reactions are just as bad as the race-baiters.
