I think most of us were hoping that he'd be found not guilty; and that is what has happened. So far there hasn't been a large riot. I think that is because the community police have been prepared for such, and the Black community knows it. However, the law suits will now commence. All of the Black leaders who have made themselves rich playing on the emotions of their "brothers & sisters" will be at it again. We will hear all about the sorry plight of the Negro race.....all of which isn't their fault! If this had been a Black on Black killing, nothing would have been done. No one would have raised an eyebrow. I'm afraid that just like our friend Jerry, I'm fed up with the Blacks. I thought, like Jerry, that if the civil rights of all citizens were upheld, that Blacks would prosper. But we see what most of them have done with those hard won rights. Far, far too many have thrown those chances down the drain. To those who have made the social climb up hill I say, CONGRATULATIONS! I admire you. To your neighbors who just cry poor mouth and demand "stuff" at the expense of the hard working tax payers I say, Go to blazes. I'm tired of you. I'm tired of your lazy, good for nothing ways. If you want a lousy life, move to Detroit. Your "brothers" up there have accomplished the down fall of a once strong city. Enjoy it!

I've said it many times before: NIGGER is not a color; it's a way of life. Lots of decent black folks don't like it very much either, and lots of sorry white folks live it every way they can.

Let me get this straight. We are constantly accused of racism against the Hispanics. Now a Hispanic has killed a Black, and we are again raciest. Do I have that right?

Sounds about right to me, Hiram. It's amazing how many people are so eager to fault-find and finger-point when it doesn't directly involve them; it's like they are trying to get a life by putting down others.

And another thing; everybody says Zimmerman is NOT GUILTY, but has anyone at all said he is INNOCENT?

Jerry, both of these young men could have prevented the whole thing from happening. Zimmerman could have stayed in his car where he was more or less told by the 911 dispatcher to stay. He was told that they didn't need him to follow Martin. But he was determined to not have another break in by some punk that didn't belong in his neighborhood. Instead of letting the police handle it, he decided to see what this suspicious looking character was doing in a place where he didn't look as if he belonged. As for Martin, he was well on his way to becoming a less than productive member of society. He had, what is all too often with young Black men, a GIANT chip on his shoulder. Instead of answering a question he immediately took offense. No White guy was going to make him answer questions, etc. etc. Both men were spring loaded to the pissed off position. And we've all seen what that led to. Many people are saying, See, if Zimmerman had not had a gun it would never have happened. I say that if Zimmerman had not had a gun it would probably have been his body on the ground. Martin was doing a pretty good job of bashing Zimmerman's head into the sidewalk. The fact that he was lucky and got away with only minor wounds doesn't mean that would have been the ending if he hadn't shot Martin. Both men were guilty of some things and innocent of others. But that doesn't change the fact that one is dead and the other is going to have a long hard climb back to a normal life. Just the story of some violence that didn't have to happen. Our world seems to be full of such stories, doesn't it?!
