The news is not necessarily the truth. Don't "rush to jusgement", if the glove don't fit you must acquit. In America a person is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, just in case you forgot.
The law was Not intended to give...blah, blah, blah. The law of unintended consequences is at work here. Thats something liberals are never concerned with. It seems they lack the 'cause and effect' gene.
They prefer to have the appearance of doing good, without being concerned about the wreckage caused as a RESULT of their never ending oppressive laws. Case in point: The Community Reinvestment Act. We've been experiencing the damage caused by that FEEL GOOD LAW since 2006...and there's possibly three to five years to go before things are stablized.
Three to five is what the politicians should have gotten. Carter, Clinton, Barney, and the rest of the scum bags involved. Sociopaths, white collar criminals, the emeny within, financial terrorists.
Dan, skin tone is something liberals are concerned with, though all liberals will deny it. True conservatives, on the other hand, judge everyone by the content of their character, not by the color of their skin. You seem to have a lot of inner anger and rage.
Get some rest, take some aspirin, read LIberty Defined, and you'll feel better.
The thing that bothers me, is how they are making this a race issue. And you hit the nail on the head with this title. This isn't about race, it's about the Condo Commando and the "Florida's stand your ground law".
The problem is people are now trying to make it a race issue, that is why the opposition is able to pull the "FSYG" law out of their ass for a counter argument.
How come it just can't be against the law for Goober Gomez to randomly shoot people, especially when the 911 official told him not to follow the kid. We got enough to hang this creep on, why does race have to play into it?
Abe, what on Earth are you talking about?
Zimmerman calls Kid a "F**king Coon" on 911 call, is told not to follow Kid, does so anyway.

I can't help but wonder if Zimmerman has a family member who is a cop or something. The reason I say this is that Zimmerman got into a brawl with a cop and was charged for it several years ago. His treatment by police gives me a feeling they went out of their way to let him off.
As for self-defense, 90% of the time if somebody shoot somebody else, they charge you anyway - even if the self-defense was obvious, like shooting a stranger who is on the 2nd floor of your house at 3AM.
They let this guy go and gave him his gun back right away.
It's not racism? Check out these Fox News comments:
What a shame—a tragedy, really— because the dead lil’ gangsta could’ve used “‘A-FIRM-TIV AK-SHUN†to go to kollige an play footballz and make lotsa cash munny!â€
[…]
Fast and Furious didn’t work to pass new gun control so now Eric Holder will try the race card.
[…]
No matter how crime figures are massaged by those who want to acknowledge or dispute the existence of a Dirty War, there is nothing ambiguous about what the official statistics portray: for the past 45 years a large segment of bIack America has waged a war of v i o l e n t retribution against white America.
[…]
Zimmerman was attacked by the man and defended himself with a gun. Zimmerman’s wounds were verified by police.
[…]
17 = child. LOL!!!!!!
Let the LIB word games begin.
[…]
Yet the “justice department†refuses to prosecute any voter intimidation that involves a blac k as the intimidator.
[…]
Why should anyone care about this kid? Because he is of color? People don’t value kids period. They are property. BTW, I am a conservative that cares a great deal about kids. We follow hundreds of cases each year, many white babies and children, none of them get attention. But he does??
[…]
Zimmerman felt threatened by Martin’s gang’s actions…this could have possibly lead to these terrible circumstances. Gang violence MUST BE STOPPED OBAMA!
[…]
Blacks can do no wrong, period! That is the DOJ’s excuse for becoming involved. 50+ years of being told they are special and entitled and the gov’t’s only focus is to make it so!!
[…]
In any event, it appears to be a case of one sc u m bag Cuban-type (Zimmerman) offing some scummy b l a ck kid (Trayyy-Vonnnn)…in some trash neighborhood….
but now, because the dead kid’s a kneegrow, we have:
the BIG BAD FBI on this “important†case…and
the usual BLACK-RADICAL-PROTESTERS who can’t mind their own business!
[…]
Gated communities exist because people are afraid….& negros thrive on crime…Look at our prisons.
[…]
Need that too….But Negr0s only have their welfare checks….and in any event can’t follow rules
[…]
What time do the riots start? Gotta get my popcorn and munchies ready for the “hood†burning!
[…]
Funny you never see them rally against the drug dealing murderers that control their neighborhoods. LOL!!!
[…]
How does anyone know what this 17 yr old said, Most likely he threw the race card out †you stop me because I*M B L ACK†and then became threatning. The media alway plants the seed of doubt when when a B l ac k is sh ot by a caucasian
[…]
maybe his gang brothers incited violence too?
[…]
How’d the kid get into the “gated†community in the first place?
[…]
Them monkeys can jump!

Note Fox News apparently eliminated all comments from this article. There were more than 3000 at one point.

Yeah, Fox totally deleted all 3000+ mostly racist comments. All the other articles on Fox News have a comment button to the left of the Facebook icon. It's missing from the "Department of Justice..." article referenced above.
17 year old dies due to gunshot wound in Florida.
Case Open.
911 tape verifies shooter followed victim after being instructed to not do so and uses racial slur.
Case closed.
A manslaughter conviction at least is in this guy's future.

Some racist follows an unarmed 17-year-old African American boy. The boy buys candy and iced tea at a convenience store and continues walking home. The neighborhood watch scumbag stalks the boy, murders him with a gun, and then claims he was acting under Florida's stand your ground law, which states that a person can defend himself from an attacker rather without fearing legal prosecution.
The law was intended so that victims of violent crimes like rape, robbery, and attempted murder could fight back without risking prosecution. It was not intended to give a person the right to pro-actively engage someone in battle, and if you win -- which isn't hard when your armed with a gun and the other person is a minor with no weapons -- then you get away with murder. However, the police didn't arrest the murderer. After all, the victim did look suspicious. He had suspicious skin tone.

And that is why I hate social conservatism. A boy with his entire life ahead of him, snuffed out because of some stupid reptilian xenophobia.
