ok i guess i mistook the intent.i was under the impression that it was a form of protest against his killing/support for trayvon/his family/black community. similar to:
I can see how you could think that. But the intention of these people was mockery. Or at least "I am so much better than you sheeple, I don't care about death, I am the only thinking being in a world of automatons".

i guess white people are all mindless violent animals as well, huh? now please go on to tell me how this is different and how the event you posted reflects the ethics of all black protestors.

I think it's interesting that people would say that Zimmerman is racist when his entire background is filled with befriending, helping, and living with diverse groups of people. At one point he even helped get actual justice for a black homeless man who was beaten to death by police.
Don't let facts get in the way of people's emotions.

You make a good point. That is...If the case didn't exist, or the facts of the case, or facts in general. But no, lets go on pretending that emotional rants equate to facts..
I don't understand where you're getting that statement from. Unless of course, all of those violent protests are pro Zimmerman protests. Furthermore, there's nobody on here that's a "supporter" of George Zimmerman. You mistake "supporter" for big fan of facts and judging objectively based on said facts.. But whatever makes you feel better?

I don't understand how the people who are clear supporters of George Zimmerman can be the most upset at this point.
I'm not upset it just bothers me that people are just trying to gloss over the actual facts of the case and make it seem like Zimmerman was Elmer Fudd saying" Be vewy vewy quiet... i'm hunting niggahs" and shot Trayvon as he was running home or something.

Personally I'm not upset at all, but If anyone had watched the trial, looked at all presented evidence, and the history of the defendant in the case, it's not only absurd to say that he's racist but obvious that GZ would not be convicted.

provides a great breakdown of the facts of, and behind this case. All sources provided along with the video, long winded but presented well.
The only reason that this was even brought to trial was the same as most of the non-issues that are used to stir up racial strife.
"There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances because they do not want to lose their jobs.
There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don't want the patient to get well." --Booker T. Washington
