Interesting theory. So if Mr. Zimmerman looked more "white" you think he'd be compared to Johannes Mehserle, the BART cop?
Absolutely.
This involves 2 ethnic groups the Dems need to play nicely together (though they don’t), and I believe they made assumptions about Zimmerman right off the bat for their “racial conflict” story that is no longer convenient.
Hispanics have no “white guilt” at all.
