Let's talk about Trayvon Martin, George Zimmerman, and how unbelievably fucked up this all is

I wonder, has there ever been a case, ever, where this Stand Your Ground law was invoked that allowed a black person to get away with killing a white person? My bet is ... no.

valid point

I somehow missed through all this that Zimmerman is actually on the lam, whereabouts unknown.

Wait, whaaaaaaat?

No shit! Well, guy should probably keep running, hood-up, at this point.

Wait, are his whereabouts unknown, or have they just not been revealed to the press/angry mob?

I just heard that from a coworker who has been level-headed enough to keep with all angles of the story without succumbing to blind rage. Dunno where she read/heard it, though.

i'm sure they know where he is, and i'm sure they have no desire to let the public know

Was he talking with her on the phone? "By the way, I think some weird dude is following

this is exactly what happened btw

miami heat http://campl.us/il4E

but this isn't about suspicious behavior, its about black / hip-hop clothing being interpreted as signifiers of criminality. could have just as well been a 3XL tee and sagging jeans instead of a hoodie, people would still be implying martin's blame for dressing / looking too black

xps

How plausible a concern is this?

First of all, this is utter BS. The Pres made a very boilerplate statement and merely pointed out that an un-armed black man who would look very similar to his son, if he had one, was just shot and the shooter apparently wasn't going to suffer any consequence at the State level due to a law which should, yes, probably be looked at.

DJP by putting the words "Gabrielle Union fuck" in such close proximity you have raised and then dashed my hopes.

Rivera's son must be ashamed for him an awful lot

that top tweet is next level

Geraldo's lack of filter is stunning

"I gave Geraldo +Klout on being a child of color in America!"

his hoodie surely murdered him, much like short skirts are known to sexually assault women

DJP is gonna hate fuck Dwyane Wade?

"look like a gangsta" rmde

Geraldo, I think a kid getting gunned down by a crazy likely-racist did more to remind American minorities of the dangers facing their children than your "he shouldn't have been wearing a hoodie" concern-trolling

xxp: if that's what it takes to get Gabby's attention

gangstas should all start sporting comedy mustaches imho

comedy mustaches and hypercolor t-shirts

So Geraldo, I guess that means when someone sees you driving around in your Mercedes, or walking around in an expensive suit, you're fair game to be robbed? After all, you're flaunting your wealth. You're asking for it. You know the risks.

A gut-puncher of a post on this topic by Jesse Taylor at Pandagon: http://pandagon.net/index.php/site/comments/a-young-black-man-being-late

everyone knows from Geraldo's mustache that he is a video game plumber

throw geraldo head-first into a chemical toilet imho

xxp: I wish I could say that story surprises me

I'm wearing a hoodie right now. It's orange.

sending cops over to your house now

"His hoodie killed Trayvon Martin as surely as George Zimmerman"

it ought to be a crime to employ geraldo rivera
