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

brb driving 2 target to riot

The parents are going to sue him into the poorhouse, though, right? Please tell me there's still a chance to destroy him.

i don't think that's the point

lol @ this fbook status from some white dude tho:
One day, I will have a half-black child and this is making me sick to my stomach

ppl just go on fbook to riot

not surprising, but neither will it be when this newly empowered psychopath kills again.

xxp I know it's not the point, I just want this family to have one tiny measure of justice.

haha, really? as shitty is this is, don't think this bro is looking to be Capt. Vigilante anymore after this.

he's gonna hire -- or be provided by fans with -- private security for the rest of his life, if not hidden.

Fuck all that bs about a justice system. From Zimmermans profiling to the evidence that was lost when police decided to send a murderer home, the kid never had a chance at anything like Justice.

whoa there

fucking fuck all this

i honestly thought i was jaded enough that news couldn't get at me anymore; fuck's sake we're killing little boys by the dozen every day but somehow this got me and i'm really feeling ill

this is domino-effect-sad for so many people. just awful.

imagine what george zimmerman feels like right now. he thought he was right for killing trayvon martin, and now a jury just told him that he basically was. can you imagine? i won't be surprised if he kills again.

i'm probably not seeing clearly right now. let's just scream together in this thread tonight. jesus christ. i thought there was a reasonable chance he'd get manslaughter.

(i shouldn't post anymore - only saying so because it'll be easier for me not to after having said that i shouldn't.)

America sucks

Fuck these fucking fucks.

The post-verdict conference is setting new lows in smarm. Fuck.

i need to not look at facebook right now.
motherfuckers already talking about how the certain-to-come riots show that they're animals anyway so let them lose their souls
fuck i don't even know

might also help not to post under the dn 'boy_slayer' right now too fyi

--how bad could it be to be stuck to the couch, forever... (forksclovetofu)

Why would you be friends with people that think this?

Because i grew up in the deep south. didn't you do that too?

might also help not to post under the dn 'boy_slayer' right now too fyi

you are absolutely right. this s/n was dumb in the first place, but it's probably just too much now.

first reason i'm not gonna post: too pissed to say anything coherent.
second reason i'm not gonna post: my lame s/n.

yes -- and now I luckily don't have to talk to, see, or otherwise communicate with anyone I knew when i did!

head defense dude just now: "Zimmerman didn't know why he was turned into [a monster], but it was you guys, the media, who did that to him."

it was so sad that day that the media murdered a child and blamed it on poor defenseless george zimmerman.

can i kickstart a riot? is that a thing?

xxp ignoring the people i once knew doesn't make them go away and i'd rather know what they're really thinking then have it surprise me when i visit.
wondering if its corny to wear a hoodie to the park tomorrow

ugh this is so horrible

tn is the deep south?

think it is conceivably reassuring for someone to see one being worn?, idk

disgraceful decision

it was looking like this verdict was kind of inevitable though? from a legal standpoint.

from a this society is the worst just fuck it standpoint

i don't know about the legal particulars of the case but whatever they are they are bullshit.

you shouldn't be able to harass people and then shoot them because you have a vigilante fantasy. the law should be designed to prevent people from doing this.

humans are garbage

one of my best friends is garbage

the others are cats?

Zimmerman's brother: "Trayvon Martin had the right to go home".

there was never any legal complexity here, there aren't two sides to most issues. there's no excuse.

fucking ann coulter fucking everyone
i am turning off media for the night

Zimmerman's brother going after Trayvon on CNN

I basically just outed my brother's lifelong bigotry on facebook to prove a point. He still doesn't get it.

times like these make me glad i don't have facebook

in case you're not feeling despair about the state of america you might want to try searching twitter for "fireworks" right now

I was pretty sure I heard fireworks immediately after the verdict and thought it couldn't possibly be true, and then a friend from florida and a friend from Minnesota said they heard the same thing in their neighborhoods.

what kind of an idiot family whose last name is zimmerman would name one of their sons robert? they didn't know that one was taken?

You mean by Bob Dylan??? No, I would say they didn't know it was taken. Surely no more than 1% of the US population knows that "Robert Zimmerman" was Bob Dylan's birth name.

that can't be true. at least 96% of american households have a copy of hunky dory, in which bowie at addresses dylan as "robert zimmerman" on "song for dylan".
