I agree. One of my best friends is black. Never would I have ever thought she’d see things as black vs white. She is slamming the defense every chance she gets and is totally blinded by “justice for Trayvon”. She claims to be watching the whole proceedings as well. It’s like we’re not watching the same trial.
The bottom line with blacks I’ve met or read is that Zimmerman killed an unarmed black man. And he should be sent to prison for it.
Nothing about nuance [which is what the application of the law and the trial is all about.]
The trial is irrelevant to blacks. Zimmerman killed Trayvon. Send him to jail. End of story.
Well, you’re about to lose a friend. She’ll claim you went “raciss” first.
I hope you’re not coworkers. If you are, I recommend you stop talking to her on this subject because if there’s a problem, she will start it and you will be blamed.
She has probably been watching biased MSM coverage. Given the MSM's spinning and lies by omission, what she has probably seen and heard had little to do with the actual trial.
If you question her, you will probably find that despite her strong feelings she is ignorant of basic facts about the case, and is convinced that some lies she has heard are true.
Good luck hanging on to that friendship.
I work with a lot of blacks and they all are like your friend. I’ll never look at blacks the same way. When it comes down to it, they go with the tribe...when they vote and when its a race issue.
