I would say it is wildly accurate since he IS OF MIXED RACE, mixed race is not the same thing as white plus anytime the press has an opportunity they refer to any “Hispanic” as being nonwhite, that is as long as that helps their agenda. In this case it does not help their agenda to refer to Zimmerman as nonwhite. I have seen people who looked nearly as white as Bill Clinton calling themselves black because it fits their agenda so why is this person who doesn’t really look any more white than Obama, not to mention Bill Clinton, being referred to as “white”? Only because it fits the media agenda, otherwise he would be called “Hispanic” or even “African American” if it suited their agenda and you know this is true. The agenda is to create the meme that a WHITE man who holds a concealed carry permit has MURDERED a black CHILD for no reason so Zimmerman cannot be called anything other than white for that reason and no other and for the same reason they show pictures of Martin that are several years old.

By the way, whether Peru was settled by Spaniards has absolutely nothing to do with the race of Zimmerman or his mother simply because she happened to be born there.

Everybody gets it. You don’t have to go to the trouble to keep repeating over and over and digressing to tell your opinion of what makes a person “white”. We all know what the media is up to.

Because of an accident of geography I grew up with schoolmates who had parents of mixed ethnicity, including some whose mothers parents were from a country south of the USA with varying percentages of spanish-native-american and dads who were Jewish and they all spoke english without accent and had light complexion and not particularly distinctive features and were culturally the same as their anglo-saxon-french-german-polish schoolmates and they certainly thought of themselves as “white”, and we as their friends would have thought it exceedingly odd if somebody came around asserting to them “ YOU’re not white!”
