My answer is obvious. Not guilty. Zimmerman did nothing wrong and was acting in self defense against a wanabee thug.

Trayvon may not have been a thug, but all existing evidence show that he attacked Zimmerman. Under these circumstances, the jury's decision was the correct one.

Because Zimmerman was attacked he cannot be found guilty of Murder, and the manslaughter verdict depends on who actually pulled the trigger (I believe it was Zimmerman).


I vote for Manslaughter

Wow, racism AND defending murder. That's a two-fer.

Anyway, guilty (normal)

There's no reason that a man with a gun should feel threatened by a black teenager who didn't even acknowledge his existence until he started following him around.

Agreed. Zimmerman had no authority to stalk the kid, and I don't blame Trayvonn for defending himself. If anything, Trayvon Martin was standing HIS ground.

No. This has NOTHING to do with race. It has to do with a thug attacking a innocent person.

Lets look at the facts.

-Trayvon Martin was a drug dealer. And had a history of violence (hell he ATTACKED a bus driver).

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v606/rubycalaber/In%20use/trayvondrugdealing.png~original

Zimmerman followed him. Thats what the NEGHIBRGHOOD watch is supposed to do. Hell ive been followed in my grandparents gated community, BECAUSE I HAD NEVER BEEN IN THE AREA!. Once I told the person following me that I wasint up to trouble, he turned around and left. Nothing happened.

Martin COULD have just told Zimmerman this. But INSTEAD of running away or talking to him HE ATTACKED HIM!. Zimmerman was not planning on attacking Martin. He tried to get the police.

And

-Zimmerman is a quarter black by way of his grandpa.
-he took a black girl to prom.
-he even testifed FOR a black man who got beat by a white guy.
 
real...signs of a racist.

Meanwhile their are MILLIONS of cases on BLACK ON BLACK CRIME. But I NEVER SEE the media reporting that!.

So because the KKK and NAACP met, does that mean the KKK isn't racist anymore? Good to know.

Tell me, what was Trayvon doing initially that made it okay for him to be followed by the neighbourhood watch?

Thats a REALLY stupid argument.

Okay, so if a racist orgnization (two) meet up, that dosint make the ORGINIZATIONS NOT RACIST. No, there still racist.

Zimmerman is black HIMSELF, dated a blackgirl, and defended a black man who was BEAT.

SO RACIST!.

Its commen knoweladge that if your in a GATED community, and your new people are gona ask questions. Happens all the time, happened to me even. All you have to do is talk to them and tell them WHO your going to meet. Zimmerman wasint EVEN GOING after Martin just making sure he wasint doing anything mad before the police came, then Martin AMBUSHED him and ATTACKED HIM.

Zimmerman shooting him was 100% SELF DEFENSE.

Martins record speaks for itself, did you even read the link I sent?.

I'm split between manslaughter and not guilty. Although if I had been on the Jury I probably would've voted not guilty by the lack of evidence. Both are horrible people, but facts weren't on Trayvon's side.

I'd always vote not guilty if I sat on a jury in any criminal trial, except for the rarest instance of white-collar crime.

Could you please provide a link from a non-biased source stating that Zimmerman is a quarter black? Thank you.

First off, your grammar is absolutely atrocious. I will never be able to retrieve the brain cells that committed suicide after reading that post.

Second off, there's a difference between saying "hey son, how are ya?" and following him around (after the cops said NOT to follow him) with a loaded weapon in the car. If someone was following me in their car, I would absolutely be alarmed. Zimmerman was looking to be a hero. He hit the jackpot when he saw a black kid out late at night. It doesn't matter if Zimmerman dated black girls, defended black people, etc. He still murdered someone and got away with it because he appears white. If the roles were reversed, Zimmerman would absolutely have been convicted of murder, I'm willing to bet everything I own on that.

Also, if you say this wasn't a racial incident, why are you so reactionary about mentioning that Zimmerman is supposedly black?

1.grammar lol. I don't type good on the internet because its my spare time, and I don't feel like typing. And stop insulting me, typical liberal crap.
2.He wasint going to hurt him tho. I mean, the distress call SUGGESTED for him not to follow Martin. But they didint OUTRIGHT state it. The guy on the line THAT talked to Zimmerman even ADMITTED that it was JUST a suggestion. I mean, Its a gated community and Martin has NEVER been their. With tons of burglarers in the area Zimmerman was following Martin to MAKE SURE HE DIDINT DO ANYTHING, then MARTIN ATTACKED HIM!. BEFORE Zimmerman attacked him or even said anything. Self-Defense is defending yourself when your in harm. Martin was not in harms way at all. he could have you know called the police?, or just ran away back home?. But no he ATTACKED Zimmerman. And he didint just attack him, or push him away. No he BEAT HIM for 50SECONDS, do you know how long that is in a fight?. That IS NOT THE BEHAVIOR OF SOMEONE ACTING IN DEFENSE OR SOMEONE THAT IS SCARED, NO ITS THE ACT OF A AGRESSER!. Say whatever you like, but the facts SHOW that George Zimmerman acted in self-defense.
3.Appears white?. LOL Zimmerman dosint look ANYTHING WHITE!. Hell, even on his ancestry form he filled out "HISPANIC", just like Obama fills out BLACK. HE IS white mostly since there are only 3 races White, Black, and Asian and he's a majority, but he dosint look white to the general American. If Martin was white, and Zimmerman was black I would STILL be sticking up for Zimmerman because his RACE DOES NOT MATTER, NO THIS WAS A ATTACK BY A THUG!.

FUNNY, how you support Martin simply because he was black. And you have no response to me stating the obvious facts. Typical progressive response.

I don't "support Martin," I oppose murder. As for your "obvious facts," all that you stated was completely biased and grounded in racism.
