Actually Zimmerman is half Latino, despite his German surname. His mother is from Peru. If you take a good look at George Zimmerman’s face, you can see that his heritage is not purely German. This fact has deliberately been hidden from most news stories, as the dominant liberal MSM does not want to divide the liberal ethnic groups from one another.

We really do not know the facts definitively. It is certainly true that the photoes of Martin show a boyish looking middle schooler, when actually he was 17-18 years old. Apparently he weighed about 200 lbs and was 6 feet tall.

Here we are in 2012, and with an apparent witness coming forth to say Martin attacked Zimmerman and not the other way around, we see a lynch mob being formed to convict a man without due process. And, our POTUS is encouraging it. Where is the Latino community when one of their own is being denied a public defense?

Based on heresay, it seems to me that this entire incident is a tragic outcome due to misunderstood circumstances.

17-18 really? Well tecnically he was somewhere between his 17th and 18th birthdays, But accurately he was 17 years and 3 weeks. He was killed the same month he turned 17. And the police report has him 6' and 160lbs - skinny.

There is not, to my understanding, any witness that says he or she saw Martin attack Zimmerman. In fact, Zimmerman himself told the 911 dispatch that he was following Martin.

We have a fellow who saw them fighting on the ground. He then locked his door and called 911. By that time Zimmerman had shot Martin, so that witness, otherwise known as "the secret witness" (who's been known about since February 27, the day after the shooting) didn't even see the shooting ~ just the aftermath!
