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

The father of George Zimmerman, the man accused of shooting and killing an unarmed black teen in Florida, says the 17-yearold threatened to kill Zimmerman and then beat him so badly that it forced Zimmerman to shoot him.

"Trayvon Martin said something to the effect of, 'You're going to die now' or 'You're going to die tonight,' something to that effect,"

are

you

fucking

kidding

this video is the top link on drudge rn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnEQQnj7eXo

comments are flooded w/ bullshit

so much hate coming from the presinent

can't believe so much hate directed at the guy who shot an unarmed kid and got away with it

don't let the haters get you down

<q>Does a black mans life only have value when he is killed by someone of another race? Black on Black violence is an epidemic in this nation. Where is Jessie J when 4 blacks in Tennesse abduct a young white couple, brutally rape, torture, then remove the genitalia of the man then burn them alive? Where was Jessie J last week in MS when a white student was beaten to death by three black men? Where is Jessie J when a black man murdered three fellow black teens in Philly?

Audio from Trayvon murder:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdbYsoEasio

During the beating, Zimmerman pulled his gun and fired one shot at close range into Martin's chest. "O true apothecary!
Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die," the teenager said, falling backward.

omg Dan, I didn't think I could laugh at a single thing about this.

OBSERVATIONSBYLENNY

"i've never been involved in hate, george hasn't, and it's uh, really unbelievable"

I don't care whatever the hell else Zimmerman says about that night's events, it is clear to ANYONE that he shot a person he chased after in order to provoke a confrontation and there's no way in hell the law or any interpretation of it should condone that, no matter how many hoodies were worn, or drugs fell out of pockets, or anything else he concocts as an excuse for killing Martin. It is all irrelevant.

All this hearsay is really useful. A man's story is more credible when his father also recounts the same story, which he heard from his son.

"George Zimmerman's neighbor recounts hearing Zimmerman's account of events as told by his father on TV"

i mean if you feel threatened you do not FOLLOW the person you are feeling threatened by. i

This is one of the most important points to make here.

During the beating, Zimmerman pulled his gun and fired one shot at close range into Martin's chest. "What an artist the world loses in me!" the teenager said, falling backward.

"Trayvon Martin appeared from behind a building in Zimmerman's gated community, approached him and demanded, "I'm William Blake. You know my poetry, homie?"

When Zimmerman replied that he didn't know his poetry, Martin said, "You do now." The unarmed teenager hit Zimmerman, knocked him to the ground, pinned him down and told him to "shut the [ expletive ] up."

unarmed teenager hit Zimmerman, knocked him to the ground, pinned him down

physics

Srsly the "homie" and the "shut the fuck up" really lend the story an air of credibility. That's how real black kids talk. Can't make details like that up.

The unarmed teenager hit Zimmerman, knocked him to the ground, pinned him down and told him "WAKE UP! TIME TO DIE!"

Then he started rapping.

"Trayvon Martin appeared from behind a building in Zimmerman's gated community, approached him and demanded, 'I'mma busta cap in yo cracker ass one time, word to ya mother! Your whole program is wack, homie!'

When Zimmerman replied that he didn't have a problem, Martin turned his baseball cap backwards and folded his arms."

"Martin told Zimmerman that he would 'sew your asshole closed and keep feedin' you and feedin' you and feedin' you.' He then drew deeply on a Philly blunt."

"I then threw a basketball in his direction, which briefly distracted him"

guys

i think we get the idea

this thread shouldn't have laffs in it, and yet it does

the fatigue of rage is despair

the fatigue of despair is lulz

i guess what we're hearing is lulz fatigue

otm

frogbs just goes there huh

I wouldn't be so sure. That's what sucks about this case -- no trial.

What the fucking shit

So in FLA would it be legal for any non-white person to kill KKK members?

I just want to let the white people who are apparently hellbent on starting a race war know that they don't actually have as many supporters as they might think and that I, for one, look forward to their complete eradication from the earth. Thanks for the memories, guys!

aww

Prince and DWC otm.

I don't remember the commenters being this dumb until the recent past.

yeah I was just lol'ing at a KKK doc last night. They show these film clips from the 30s or whatever where there's literally thousands of people at a rally/march and then oops cut to today oh look there's two dozen poor losers too fat and lazy to get off their lawnchairs watching some yahoo yelling from across the street.

yeah i'm not reading them any more

zimmerman's never going to jail, is he? over/under is what, 15%, now? fuck.

and fuck that gawker article too. not the commenters (them too) but the article. they looked at the same apparent screenshots (even posted part of one in the header) and their "source" was still someone who hacked into a dead kid's account. same privacy invasion, all the same bullshit just to prove that he was "good" rather than "bad" and completely ignoring the fact that it doesn't fucking matter if he was a drug dealer or a prospective college student, he didn't deserve to be shot. if you want to know what he's like, listen to his parents and his friends when they talk about him, don't dig into his goddamn emails and then reinforce the idea that "bad" black kids are more expendable than the "good" ones.

zimmerman's never going to jail, is he

nope

there's a small chance the feds will try to nail him, but the odds are diminishing by the hour

Zimmerman can then devote the rest of his days on earth looking for the real killer... no, wait, nvm.

I would be okay with the NBP getting him - dude is dangerous - but the odds of that are pretty low/lol too
