it is, but GZ used the self-defense argument and did not rely on SYG at all. SYG didn't get him off the hook; plain old self-defense (which is available in all states) did

i admitted to not having white friends, i can tell most of you don't have any black friends. if y'all did, y'all would understand why thousands of people are protesting right now.
I have plenty of friends. Many of them happen to be black. More agree with Lupe Fiasco than those burning flags. People's issues are these "protesters" saying they are standing up for the system when they have been absent for forever when other races are victims or when it would mean hurting one of their "own"

people have been saying it for the longest but the media didn't care until they had the right case. sean bell, oscar grant, abner louima, amadou diallo all suffered a similar fat as trayvon and had protests in their honor, rallies and tears were shed but the national media didn't bother covering it. their killers were police officers and watchmen and they were all acquited and only one served a 2 year sentence.

First of all Im not gonna follow your dumbass, I dont care WTF you are doing as long as you arent harming me or my family. Second of all, after I call the police, Im done. If they said dont follow, back off. Im smart enough to do that. Now that being said. If I got into it with you anywhere and I started losing the fight. I would not shoot you over it.

1. I said nothing about race.
2. If a neighborhood has no crime, then I guess there would be no assumption of a person being a criminal.
I know nothing of your neighborhood. The neighborhood I grew up in by Madison HS was almost a perfect blend of white/black/mexicans and never heard of one black kid getting looked at but not me or my mexican buddies.
There are tons of variables so there is no real good way to measure. Just assume. Which you are doing alot of. The only real way is to put a white kid walking with a hoodie at 3 am in Zimmerman's neighborhood, that he's never seen.
Unless you are just playing strawmen and generalizing,

Zimmerman juror gets book agent
By Tracy Connor, Staff Writer, NBC News
One of the six anonymous jurors who acquitted George Zimmerman of second-degree murder in the death of Trayvon Martin has signed with a literary agent to write a book about the case less than 48 hours after the verdict.
The woman, known only as Juror B37 under court order, will enlist her husband, an attorney who works in the aerospace industry, as her co-author, agent Sharlene Martin said in a statement Monday.
“My hope is that people will read Juror B37’s book … and understand the commitment it takes to serve and be sequestered on a jury in a highly publicized murder trial and how important, despite one’s personal viewpoints, it is to follow the letter of the law,” Martin said.
“It could open a whole new dialogue about laws that may need to be revised and revamped to suit a 21st century way of life,” she added. “The reader will also learn why the jurors had no option but to find Zimmerman not guilty due to the manner in which he was charged and the content of the jury instructions.”
The jurors, who were sequestered during the trial, deliberated about 16 hours before finding Zimmerman not guilty. He said he fired his 9mm pistol in self-defense after Martin, who did not have a gun, attacked him on Feb. 26, 2012 in Sanford, Fla.
The verdict has already sparked several large rallies and marches and there are plans for a 100-city vigil next weekend. The agent said the juror has not decided whether to reveal her identity “given the sensitivity of the verdict and the outpouring of mixed reactions by the American public.”
The woman has lived in the Sanford, Fla., area for 18 years and has two daughters – a 24-year-old pet groomer and a 27-year-old college student. During jury selection, she said she had been called for jury duty four times previously but never selected to sit on a case.
Martin has represented other authors involved in big trials, including the O.J. Simpson, Amanda Knox and Jodi Arias cases.

Why didn't Trayvon borrow someone's car or get one of his buddies to go with him to the store? I live in rural Collin County and I'm an evil whitey but I'm not going to walk to a store in public at night. That's just dangerous. Where I live, you are more likely to get hit by a car than get shot. Not worth it if you ask me.

Tell me, how much common sense do you have to have to see what you THINK could be a dangerous person and actively follow them around with a gun? That does not sound like responsible behavior to me.
It's not a legal thing. People get that there wasn't enough to convict. But morally, this thing doesn't pass the smell test at all and just feels completely wrong.

Agreed, but the other side sort of does too. How many people get followed by a "creep ass craka" and circle back to fight? Or even more, who has a cell phone in a dangerous situation and does not call the cops? Why would you not call the cops there? Is there a reason you didn't want the cops around? Did you not think of it? That does not make any sense either.

Traybonz Trolls and Trayvton Supporters.
Juror B37, who asked to remain her anonymity, said she did not find the prosecution’s witnesses to be credible and that race did not play a role in the jury’s decision.
However, she also acknowledged her belief that Zimmerman went "above and beyond" in his decision to ignore police direction by confronting Trayvon Martin.
Appearing on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360,” she said neither she nor any of the other jurors discussed race when reviewing the case.
“I don’t think it did. If there was another person, Spanish, white, Asian; if they came in the same situation as Trayvon did, I think George would have reacted the same way,” she said.
“I think all of us thought race did not play a role. We never had that discussion. I think he just profiled him because he was the neighborhood watch and he profiled anyone that was acting strange.”

One thing I've learned unequivocally in my 40-something years of life is that when you take these "controversial" race cases and apply the facts, 99% of the time black people are wrong. Their cries of "racial injustice" are bullshit. The best I can do to give them the benefit of the doubt is that the rules of civil society simply fall beyond their comprehension and they can't evaluate the world around them outside of the prism of tribe. Whatever. I went through my phase of trying to be sensitive and understanding and getting to the bottom of systemic racial disparities. I've come to the conclusion that the racist worldview matches reality when it comees to blacks. Fuck 'em.

One thing I've learned unequivocally in my 40-something years of life is that when you take these "controversial" race cases and apply the facts, 99% of the time black people are wrong. Their cries of "racial injustice" are bullshit. The best I can do to give them the benefit of the doubt is that the rules of civil society simply fall beyond their comprehension and they can't evaluate the world around them outside of the prism of tribe. Whatever. I went through my phase of trying to be sensitive and understanding and getting to the bottom of systemic racial disparities. I've come to the conclusion that the racist worldview matches reality when it comees to blacks. Fuck 'em.
You're an idiot

His character isn't actually relevant to the case. And for a black kid, his record of only being caught with stolen jewelry from a burglary once, and only once being suspended from school for drugs and drug paraphernalia, absolutely makes him a straight-edge goody-two-shoes.

Mark Twain once wrote, "The only difference between reality and fiction is that fiction needs to be credible." That insightful comment would certainly apply to the recent George Zimmerman trial.
There are a number of television shows that have used the "ripped from today's headlines" concept, but if this trial's story points were to be adapted into a piece of fiction, it would cause certain problems in credibility in the writers' room. A discussion between a head writer and the episodic writer who had the idea for a show based on the Zimmerman case might play out something like this....
[SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE]
CUT TO:
INT. WRITERS' ROOM - DAY
HEAD WRITER: I looked over the script. The story is a little too nuts for me. I don't buy it.
WRITER: It's based on a real case. This is what went down back then.
The Head Writer looks over his notes.
HEAD WRITER: A man stalks a young kid. Is warned by a 911 operator not to follow the kid. He goes ahead and follows him anyway. The kid is on a cellphone and says (http://www.cnn.com/2013/06/26/justice/zimmerman-trial) to his friend that he's being followed by some stranger. The friend hears the kid say, "Get off, get off!" A struggle happens, and the kid is killed. And you write this like it's a self defense case??
WRITER: Exactly.
HEAD WRITER: But the man was pursuing the kid. How could it be a self defense case? You gotta create doubt. An audience watching this is not going to believe it. We're going to lose our viewers before the commercial break!
WRITER: Don't you see? The guy was struggling for his life. The kid pushed him to the ground. He had to pull out a gun and shoot the kid.
HEAD WRITER: But you have the guy attending Mixed Martial Arts classes. Three times a week (http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/07/08/george-zimmerman-trayvon-martin-trial/2498167/) he goes to his gym. Two hours a session. For an entire year. And the kid gets him on the ground just like that?
WRITER: Our guy was a bad student.
HEAD WRITER: Bad student? How bad can he be?
WRITER: They say he was not very athletic.
HEAD WRITER: Six hours a week of martial arts training for one year and he can't even push a kid away? And the kid weighs almost 50 pounds less (http://www.mediaite.com/tv/watch-mma-trainer-mounts-defense-attorney-in-court-calls-george-zimmerman-soft/) than this guy? Impossible. You have to change that. No one will believe it.
WRITER: Okay, I'll cut that out of the script.
HEAD WRITER: And then in a flashback scene, you have the guy, working as a bouncer, getting fired (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/george-zimmerman-lost-job-party-security-guard-aggressive-ex-co-worker-article-1.1053223) for being too aggressive with the patrons.
WRITER: All right, I'll cut that out too.
HEAD WRITER: And on page 38, after the 911 operator tells the guy to stop following the kid, the guy says (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/07/15/6-decisions-trayvon_n_3600690.html) to the operator, "Shit, he's running."
WRITER: Right.
HEAD WRITER: I don't understand. He's running? Running from what? He didn't do anything, so the only thing the kid would be running from would be the guy?
WRITER: Hmm. Maybe that's not clear.
The Head Writer thumbs forward a few pages.
HEAD WRITER: Then somehow, out of the blue, the kid has the man on the ground, a struggle ensues, and the man pulls out a gun and shoots him in the heart?
WRITER: The guy had no choice. It's self-defense.
HEAD WRITER: I don't understand. The guy on the ground is yelling, "Help, help." And then the guy on the ground screams (http://www.latimes.com/news/nation/nationnow/la-na-nn-george-zimmerman-trial-911-recording-20130708,0,2658758.story)? And right after he screams he shoots the kid.
WRITER: Exactly.
HEAD WRITER: You ever see a scene in a movie where a person screams and then shoots someone? It's normally the other person who screams and then gets shot. This is just too illogical.
WRITER: Okay, I'll finesse that.
HEAD WRITER: Why doesn't the guy just shoot the kid in the arm? Or the leg? Or the stomach?
WRITER: It was a struggle.
HEAD WRITER: Yeah, but when I read the script it's not credible. It's more like a shoot to kill.
WRITER: No, it's a self-defense scene.
HEAD WRITER: I don't buy it. It's much easier just to shoot the kid in the arm or the leg. It would take more effort to raise the gun up. The guy aims for the heart. Therefore he knows he's going to kill him. It's too illogical. Change it.
WRITER: But this is what happened.
HEAD WRITER: It doesn't have the credibility to be a dramatic episode. Unless we want to chase the ghost of Paddy Chayefsky and get into absurdism. You know, like he did with Network. Unless you want to make a satire on how screwed up the legal system is, show me a script that makes sense.
So you can see the dilemma of trying to write a script based on this tragic event. The logic evades us. And the reality haunts us.

Rough Guide to Life in the United States of Zimmerman, the US of Z
In the US of Z the law allows people to hunt each other.
In the US of Z you can be a self-appointed volunteer vigilante, and you have permission to decide a person is up to no good based solely on the color of his skin, and maybe the time of day and your own bigotry.
In the US of Z you may racial profile to your heart's content and the judge won't let it be used against you in court.
In the US of Z, you don't have to feel remorse if you kill someone, even if that person did nothing wrong, even if you went out of your way to get to kill him. You can just believe it was God's plan.
In the US of Z, there is confusion about whether Trayvon Martin is another Medgar Evers or Emmett Till. He might have grown up to be a Medgar Evers. He died an Emmett Till.
In the US of Z, the acquittal of someone who stalked and killed a young black man comes as no surprise. But it's still surprising that Zimmerman's defense attorney asserted, in all apparent seriousness, that in the same circumstances, Zimmerman would not even have been charged if he was black.
In the US of Z, it is no surprise for a black man to go uncharged when he does not survive his arrest. That's not what the defense attorney meant, because in the US of Z, it's the killer Zimmerman who is somehow the victim.
In this US of Z, there are white people who believe that black people don't care about dead black boys except when whites kill them.
Is It Ever Fair to Arrest a Judge's Son?
In this US of Z, people still think it's unfair that Zimmerman was even arrested 44 days after the killing. They don't believe that George Zimmerman's father, Robert Zimmerman, a retired Virginia Supreme Court magistrate, reportedly talked the police out of arresting George the night he killed Trayvon.
In the US of Z, the Zimmerman verdict no doubt gives some hope to Michael David Dunn, 45, a Florida white man who killed an unarmed black teenager in the back seat of a car for having the music too loud, shooting him at least eight times. Dunn has pleaded not guilty, saying he felt threatened and acted in self defense, and besides the law gives him the right to stand his ground.

NUGENT: Zimmerman should sue Trayvon’s parents
by Ted Nugent
Posted: July 17, 2013 10:59 am
The narrative being spun by any number of media pundits, race-baiters and various excuse-makers is that Mr. Zimmerman shot down an unarmed minor. Although he was found not guilty of second-degree murder or manslaughter, let’s follow the narrative of those who believe Mr. Zimmerman killed a minor. And they are right, he did. Trayvon Martin was a minor at the time of this death. The basis for Zimmerman’s lawsuit should be that minor Trayvon Martin viciously attacked him causing great bodily harm and threatening his life, which resulted in Mr. Zimmerman defending himself and shooting Martin.
Trayvon Martin’s vicious attack on George Zimmerman and Martin’s tragic death have no doubt surely dragged Mr. Zimmerman through 18 months of untold emotional hell, pain, distress, anguish, fatigue, nightmares and financial ruin. Again, following the narrative of the pro-Trayvon media types and other race-baiters, if Trayvon Martin was a minor, then Trayvon Martin’s parents may be held liable for the emotional pain and suffering Mr. Zimmerman has been put through for the past 18 months, and surely for the rest of his life.
Parents can be held responsible for the actions of their minor-age children until the children reach the age of majority (meaning adulthood), which is exactly why Mr. Zimmerman should explore filing a lawsuit against Martin’s parents. The age of majority in Florida is 18-years-old. Trayon Martin was 17-years-old when he attacked Mr. Zimmerman, which potentially means that Trayvon’s parents may possibly be held responsible for the stress, emotional pain and anguish their son caused George Zimmerman.

As former Florida State Senator Dan Gelber has pointed out, pre-Jeb Bush, pre- Koch Brothers, and pre-ALEC Florida law would have required the following instructions to be read to a jury in a self-defense murder trial:
"The defendant [George Zimmerman] cannot justify the use of force likely to cause death or great bodily harm unless he used every reasonable means within his power and consistent with his own safety to avoid the danger before resorting to that force. The fact that the defendant [George Zimmerman] was wrongfully attacked cannot justify his use of force likely to cause death or great bodily harm if by retreating he could have avoided the need to use that force."
Note that according to these jury instructions, the defendant must do everything possible, including retreating, before attempting to use deadly force.
When confronted with a threat in 2005 and before, whether it was a deadly threat or simply the threat of violence, or even when confronted with actual violence, like being punched in the face or knocked to the pavement, the legal obligation was to work yourself free and run.
All that changed in Florida in 2006, when Florida's brand-spanking new and ALEC-promoted Stand Your Ground and Shoot First law came into effect.
Since 2006, post-Jeb Bush, post-Koch Brothers, and post-NRA and ALEC, the Stand Your Ground and Shoot First concept has become fully integrated into Florida's law regarding self-defense and the use of deadly force.
This is why the jury instructions for the Zimmerman jury included Stand Your Ground language, because that language is now part of Florida's laws about self-defense.
Listen carefully to the difference between the "You Must Retreat" language in the pre-2006 jury instructions and the instructions used in the Zimmerman trial. Remember, before 2006 Florida law said that even if the other guy started the fight, you still had an obligation to run. The old law read as follows:
"The fact that the defendant was wrongfully attacked cannot justify his use of force likely to cause death or great bodily harm if by retreating he could have avoided the need to use that force."
By comparison, here are the Stand Your Ground instructions that actually were read to the Zimmerman jury:
"The danger facing George Zimmerman need not have been actual; however, to justify the use of deadly force, the appearance of danger must have been so real that a reasonably cautious and prudent person under the same circumstances would have believed that the danger could be avoided only through the use of that force. Based upon appearances, George Zimmerman must have actually believed that the danger was real.
"George Zimmerman... had no duty to retreat and had the right to stand his ground and meet force with force, including deadly force, if he reasonably believed that it was necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself ..."
George Zimmerman didn't even have to have a threat of deadly force used against him. All he had to do was imagine that there was such a threat. And instead of running, he could stand his ground and shoot first to kill.

Trayvon Martin And Why The Right-Wing Media (and SpursTalk righties) Spent 16 Months Smearing A Dead Teenager
Appearing on Fox & Friends in the wake of a Florida jury found (http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/2013/07/florida-jury-finds-george-zimmerman-not-guilty-of-murder-1.html) George Zimmerman not guilty of murdering Trayvon Martin, Geraldo Rivera's claim that Martin brought about his own death by dressing in a hooded sweatshirt the night of the killing was shocking, but not surprising. Echoing earlier comments (http://mediamatters.org/blog/2012/03/23/foxs-geraldo-rivera-if-you-dress-like-a-wannabe/184755) he made on the program, Rivera proclaimed: "You dress like a thug, people are going to treat you like a thug."
http://mediamatters.org/static/uploader/image/2013/07/17/geralodrivera1.jpg
It was shocking because the idea of a well-paid commentator going on television and blaming an unarmed teen for being shot while walking home inside a gated community because he wore a hoodie -- because he tried to look like "a thug" as Rivera put it -- is repellent.
So yes, Rivera's comments were shockingly awful and irresponsible. As was his claim (http://mediamatters.org/video/2013/07/12/foxs-rivera-i-submit-jurors-would-have-shot-and/194852) that the all-female jury "would have shot and killed Trayvon Martin a lot sooner than George Zimmerman did." But his comments weren't surprising, because Fox News and too much of the right-wing media have spent the last 16 months zeroing in on the memory of a dead teenager and doing their best to denigrate it.
Apart from the far right's gleeful and disrespectful (http://mediamatters.org/video/2013/07/16/msnbcs-alex-wagner-highlights-right-wing-medias/194906) response to the not guilty verdict, there remains a separate thread of loud tastelessness that dates back to 2012 and focuses on the victim for all the wrong reasons, suggesting he somehow got what he deserved. (Or what he "sought (http://riehlworldview.com/?p=32204).")
Remember the fake, menacing photo of Martin that right-wing sites passed around (http://twitchy.com/2012/03/25/why-teamdueprocess-is-important-for-justice/) last year? And when The Daily Caller published (http://www.mediaite.com/tv/ed-schultz-blasts-the-daily-caller-for-character-assassination-of-trayvon-martin/) tweets from the slain boy's closed Twitter account? Tweets that conservatives then used to portray the teen as a thug?
This week, Fox favorite Ten Nugent practically danced on Martin's grave (http://mediamatters.org/blog/2013/07/15/ted-nugent-travyon-martin-was-a-dope-smoking-ra/194872), accusing the dead teenager of being a "dope smoking, racist gangsta wannabe" who was "responsible" for being shot by a volunteer neighborhood watchman on the night of February 26, 2012.
Comments by Rivera, Nugent and others (http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/robertson-george-zimmerman-right-follow-trayvon-martin-because-criminals-wear-hoodies#sthash.4Gp9FZ5G.dpuf) were proof that a smear campaign was in full swing this week and a reminder the attacks are a continuation of the foul smears first unleashed in the wake of the killing. At the time, the attacks were an ugly attempt to justify Martin's death, to shift the blame away from the gunman, Zimmerman, and to cloud the debate about Florida's controversial (http://www.cnn.com/2012/06/12/justice/florida-zimmerman-timeline) Stand Your Ground law. (Rivera in 2012: "I think the hoodie is as much responsible for Trayvon Martin's death as George Zimmerman was.")
...
Then Glenn Beck's The Blaze published (http://mediamatters.org/blog/2012/03/21/the-blaze-do-we-know-trayvon-martin-wasnt-an-ar/186523) a laundry list of criminal offenses Martin may have committed while he was alive:
• Aggravated assault
• Aggravated battery against a non-staff member
• Armed robbery
• Arson
• Assault/Threat against M-DCPS employees or persons conducting official business
• Battery or Aggravated battery against M-DCPS employees or persons conducting official business*
• Homicide
• Kidnapping/Abduction
• Making a false report/threat against the school*
• Sexual battery
• Possession, use, sale, or distribution of firearms, explosives, destructive devices, and other weapons.

He got killed because he jumped and beat up Zimmerman. Call it what you want but Angel Trayvon would still be alive if he hadn't done that.
i disagree but at this point its irrelevant.

Now you are just trolling. For the first year it was scumbag Zimmerman/ poor innocent Trayvon all the time. Once the facts started trickling out that little Trayvon wasn't such a fucking angel the media slowplayed/ignored it like a muthafucker.
what's his supposed non-angelic character have to do with being stalked and murdered by a vigilante? the vigilante's "record" was MUCH worse and directly related to his armed aggression against the non-angel.

If Travyon thought that Zimmerman was a gay rapist, shouldn't he have just ran away? I mean if you are a straight male and don't want to be raped by a gay male rapist then wouldn't you run away from said gay male rapist?

Hear all those calls to non-emergency about black males just milling about and looking "suspicious"? Only about one of them was actually doing a crime as well as a hispanic guy he called in about and another white guy but yet the majority were calls on black males. I'm sure there was a lot of whites and mexicans that walks about the neighborhood that he never seen before.
Shit I wouldn't be surprised that while he's on non-emergency spying on a black males, there was a white guy sneaking out the house holding a bag with a dollar sign on it over his shoulders.

Does the NRA Want African-American Men to Stand Their Ground?
On the night of February 26th, 2012, what did Trayvon Martin need that he didn’t have?
A loaded gun!
After all, as the NRA pointed out earlier this week, having access to a gun and being able to “stand your ground” is a human right.
In response to Attorney General Eric Holder’s comments about “Stand Your Ground” laws to the NAACP on Tuesday, the NRA released a statement, saying in part that, “The attorney general fails to understand that self-defense is not a concept, it’s a fundamental human right. To send a message that legitimate self-defense is to blame is unconscionable, and demonstrates once again that this administration will exploit tragedies to push their political agenda.”
And as the NRA’s 2-million-dollars-per-year spokesman (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHE6j9rAhWU) Wayne Little Peter – excuse me, LaPierre - has said, “the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is with a good guy with a gun.”
On the night of February 26th, 2012, both George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin felt threatened.
Zimmerman’s lawyers proved that with the pictures of his bloody head and nose, and with the verdict in the case.
And, it’s safe to assume that Trayvon Martin had a legitimate fear about dying since he ended up dead. What greater proof of fear for one’s death is there than being dead?
So for young black men like Trayvon Martin who are being constantly profiled and stalked by “creepy ass crackers” like George Zimmerman, what’s the solution?
Isn’t it obvious?
Give them a gun!

Pat Buchanan weighs in with some hate facts:
Black America's Real Problem Isn't White Racism
By Pat Buchanan - July 19, 2013
In the aftermath of the acquittal of George Zimmerman, Eric Holder, Al Sharpton and Ben Jealous of the NAACP are calling on the black community to rise up in national protest.
Yet they know -- and Barack Obama, whose silence speaks volumes, knows -- nothing is going to happen.
"Stand-Your-Ground" laws in Florida and other states are not going to be repealed. George Zimmerman is not going to be prosecuted for a federal "hate crime" in the death of Trayvon Martin.
The result of all this ginned-up rage that has produced vandalism and violence is simply going to be an ever-deepening racial divide.
Consider the matter of crime and fear of crime.
From listening to cable channels and hearing Holder, Sharpton, Jealous and others, one would think the great threat to black children today emanates from white vigilantes and white cops.
Hence, every black father must have a "conversation" with his son, warning him not to resist or run if pulled over or hassled by a cop.
Make the wrong move, son, and you may be dead is the implication.
But is this the reality in Black America?
When Holder delivered his 2009 "nation-of-cowards" speech blaming racism for racial separation, Manhattan Institute's Heather Mac Donald suggested that our attorney general study his crime statistics.
In New York from January to June 2008, 83 percent of all gun assailants were black, according to witnesses and victims, though blacks were only 24 percent of the population. Blacks and Hispanics together accounted for 98 percent of all gun assailants. Forty-nine of every 50 muggings and murders in the Big Apple were the work of black or Hispanic criminals.
New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly confirms Mac Donald's facts. Blacks and Hispanics commit 96 percent of all crimes in the city, he says, but only 85 percent of the stop-and-frisks are of blacks and Hispanics.
And these may involve the kind of pat-downs all of us have had at the airport.
Is stop-and-frisk the work of racist cops in New York, where the crime rate has been driven down to levels unseen in decades?
According to Kelly, a majority of his police force, which he has been able to cut from 41,000 officers to 35,000, is now made up of minorities.
But blacks are also, per capita, the principal victims of crime. Would black fathers prefer their sons to grow up in Chicago, rather than low-crime New York City, with its stop-and-frisk policy?
Fernando Mateo, head of the New York taxicab union, urges his drivers to profile blacks and Hispanics for their own safety: "The God's honest truth is that 99 percent of the people that are robbing, stealing, killing these drivers are blacks and Hispanics."
Mateo is what The New York Times would describe as "a black Hispanic" Yet he may be closer to the 'hood than Holder, who says he was stopped by police when running to a movie -- in Georgetown.
Which raises a relevant question. Georgetown is an elitist enclave of a national capital that has been ruled by black mayors for half a century. It's never had a white mayor.
Is Holder saying we've got racist cops in the district where Obama carried 86 percent of the white vote and 97 percent of the black vote? And his son should fear the white cops in Washington, D.C.?
What about interracial crime, white-on-black attacks and the reverse?
After researching the FBI numbers for "Suicide of a Superpower," this writer concluded: "An analysis of 'single offender victimization figures' from the FBI for 2007 finds blacks committed 433,934 crimes against whites, eight times the 55,685 whites committed against blacks. Interracial rape is almost exclusively black on white -- with 14,000 assaults on white women by African Americans in 2007. Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found in the FBI study."
Though blacks are outnumbered 5-to-1 in the population by whites, they commit eight times as many crimes against whites as the reverse. By those 2007 numbers, a black male was 40 times as likely to assault a white person as the reverse.
If interracial crime is the ugliest manifestation of racism, what does this tell us about where racism really resides -- in America?
And if the FBI stats for 2007 represent an average year since the Tawana Brawley rape-hoax of 1987, over one-third of a million white women have been sexually assaulted by black males since 1987 -- with no visible protest from the civil rights leadership.
Today, 73 percent of all black kids are born out of wedlock. Growing up, these kids drop out, use drugs, are unemployed, commit crimes and are incarcerated at many times the rate of Asians and whites -- or Hispanics, who are taking the jobs that used to go to young black Americans.
Are white vigilantes or white cops really Black America's problem?
Obama seems not to think so. The Rev. Sharpton notwithstanding, he is touting Ray Kelly as a possible chief of homeland security.

Blacks and Hispanics together accounted for 98 percent of all gun assailants. Forty-nine of every 50 muggings and murders in the Big Apple were the work of black or Hispanic criminals.
New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly confirms Mac Donald's facts. Blacks and Hispanics commit 96 percent of all crimes in the city, he says, but only 85 percent of the stop-and-frisks are of blacks and Hispanics.
And these may involve the kind of pat-downs all of us have had at the airport.
Is stop-and-frisk the work of racist cops in New York, where the crime rate has been driven down to levels unseen in decades?
According to Kelly, a majority of his police force, which he has been able to cut from 41,000 officers to 35,000, is now made up of minorities.
But blacks are also, per capita, the principal victims of crime. Would black fathers prefer their sons to grow up in Chicago, rather than low-crime New York City, with its stop-and-frisk policy?
Fernando Mateo, head of the New York taxicab union, urges his drivers to profile blacks and Hispanics for their own safety: "The God's honest truth is that 99 percent of the people that are robbing, stealing, killing these drivers are blacks and Hispanics."
Mateo is what The New York Times would describe as "a black Hispanic" Yet he may be closer to the 'hood than Holder, who says he was stopped by police when running to a movie -- in Georgetown.
Which raises a relevant question. Georgetown is an elitist enclave of a national capital that has been ruled by black mayors for half a century. It's never had a white mayor.
Is Holder saying we've got racist cops in the district where Obama carried 86 percent of the white vote and 97 percent of the black vote? And his son should fear the white cops in Washington, D.C.?
What about interracial crime, white-on-black attacks and the reverse?
After researching the FBI numbers for "Suicide of a Superpower," this writer concluded: "An analysis of 'single offender victimization figures' from the FBI for 2007 finds blacks committed 433,934 crimes against whites, eight times the 55,685 whites committed against blacks. Interracial rape is almost exclusively black on white -- with 14,000 assaults on white women by African Americans in 2007. Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found in the FBI study."
Though blacks are outnumbered 5-to-1 in the population by whites, they commit eight times as many crimes against whites as the reverse. By those 2007 numbers, a black male was 40 times as likely to assault a white person as the reverse.
If interracial crime is the ugliest manifestation of racism, what does this tell us about where racism really resides -- in America?
And if the FBI stats for 2007 represent an average year since the Tawana Brawley rape-hoax of 1987, over one-third of a million white women have been sexually assaulted by black males since 1987 -- with no visible protest from the civil rights leadership.
Today, 73 percent of all black kids are born out of wedlock. Growing up, these kids drop out, use drugs, are unemployed, commit crimes and are incarcerated at many times the rate of Asians and whites -- or Hispanics, who are taking the jobs that used to go to young black Americans.
Are white vigilantes or white cops really Black America's problem?
Obama seems not to think so. The Rev. Sharpton notwithstanding, he is touting Ray Kelly as a possible chief of homeland security.

Pat Buchanan weighs in with some hate facts:
Black America's Real Problem Isn't White Racism
By Pat Buchanan - July 19, 2013
In the aftermath of the acquittal of George Zimmerman, Eric Holder, Al Sharpton and Ben Jealous of the NAACP are calling on the black community to rise up in national protest.
Yet they know -- and Barack Obama, whose silence speaks volumes, knows -- nothing is going to happen.
"Stand-Your-Ground" laws in Florida and other states are not going to be repealed. George Zimmerman is not going to be prosecuted for a federal "hate crime" in the death of Trayvon Martin.
The result of all this ginned-up rage that has produced vandalism and violence is simply going to be an ever-deepening racial divide.
Consider the matter of crime and fear of crime.
From listening to cable channels and hearing Holder, Sharpton, Jealous and others, one would think the great threat to black children today emanates from white vigilantes and white cops.
Hence, every black father must have a "conversation" with his son, warning him not to resist or run if pulled over or hassled by a cop.
Make the wrong move, son, and you may be dead is the implication.
But is this the reality in Black America?
When Holder delivered his 2009 "nation-of-cowards" speech blaming racism for racial separation, Manhattan Institute's Heather Mac Donald suggested that our attorney general study his crime statistics.

So I read it and it reminds me why I don't read stuff like this that gets automatic praise from the board's racists. First of all, I think it's funny he uses gun violence from ONE state as a basis to generalize the whole black community. Also, why doesn't he use more relevant crime data? From wiki:
For 2011, law enforcement made approximately 12,400,000 arrests nationally.[15] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011arrests-15) Arrested offenders in the United States tend to be male,[16] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table42-16) over age 18,[17] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table32-17) and white.[18] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table43-18)

Characteristics of offenders vary from the average for specific types of crimes and specific crimes. In terms of violent crime by gender, in 2011, 80.4% of arrested persons were male and 19.6% were female.[16] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table42-16) Males were 88.2% of those arrested for homicide, while females were 11.8%.[16] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table42-16) Among those arrested for rape in 2011, males were 98.8% and females were 1.2%.[16] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table42-16) For property crime in 2011, 62.9% of arrested persons were male and 37.1% were female.[16] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table42-16)
For violent crime by race in 2011, 59.4% of those arrested were white, 38.3% were black, and 2.2% were of other races.[18] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table43-18)For persons arrested for homicide in 2011, 49.7% were black, 48% were white, and 2.3% were of other races.[18] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table43-18) For persons arrested for rape in 2011, 65% were white, 32.9% were black, and 2.1% were of other races.[18] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table43-18) For property crime in 2011, 68.1% of arrested persons were white, 29.5% were black, and 2.4% were of other races.[18] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-ucr2011table43-18)
In 2011, law enforcement reported 6,222 bias-motivated incidents, known as hate crimes, for which 5,731 offenders were identified.[19] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-fbi_2011_hate-19) Of these, 59% were white, 20.9% were black, 7.1% were of various races, 1.4% were Asian or Pacific Islanders, 0.8% were Native American, and 10.8% were of unknown race.[19] (http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_the_United_States#cite_note-fbi_2011_hate-19)
------------------------------------
Honestly, white people really need to get over this presumption that they are a race of angels. It's pretty annoying.
As the article says, characteristics of specific crimes varies so pointing a finger at one group is pretty stupid. All this shit is divisive bullshit anyways and it really doesn't focus on the problem when we point fingers at each other.

No mention of Hispanic skews these. Fuzzy got on to me for mentioning this fact awhile back, but a very large portion of the white part is made up of Hispanics (white vs. non-white Hispanics? Who the hell knows. Good luck trying to look these stats up btw; welcome to Richweine land.)
I guess you could say that Hispanic is an ethincity and not a race; the left (MSNBC!) loves to go to that point when they are grouping offenders, but seems to forget that angle when they are breaking down other racial stats like poverty, educaton, victims of crimes, and so forth.
The point is that black males commit a lot of violent crime, and people tend to notice that. I've read that black males age 18-49 are 5% of the population and commit half of the violent crime, but that was years ago. Recently during this trial I read that black males age 14-24 are 1% of the population but represent 27% of violent offenders. There are thousands of searches you could do on these stats that all tell the same basic story. Call me a racist if you want to and debate the causes, but again, it's hard to fault people for noticing this.

CHARLES BARKLEY: Well, I agreed with the verdict. I feel sorry that young kid got killed. But they didn't have enough evidence to charge him. Something clearly went wrong that night. Clearly something went wrong. I feel bad for anybody who loses a kid, but if you looked at the case and you don't make it -- there was some racial profiling, no question about it. But something happened that changed the dynamic of that night, and I know -- that's probably not a popular opinion among most people but just looking at the evidence I agreed with the verdict.
I just feel bad because I don't like when race gets out in the media because I don't think the media has a pure heart, as I call it. There are very few people have a pure heart when it comes to race. Racism is wrong in any, shape, form -- a lot of black people are racist too. I think sometimes when people talk about racism, they say only white people are racist. There are a lot of black people who are racist. I don't like when it gets out there in the media because I don't think the media has clean hands.
MARIA BARTIROMO, CNBC: I'm glad you made that point.
BARKLEY: Obviously I feel sorry that young kid got killed but just judging by the evidence, I don't think that guy should have went to jail the rest of his life. Something happened bad that night, obviously.
BARTIROMO: I like what the juror said, they both should have walked away. And if there is a shadow of a doubt, there is a shadow of a doubt.
BARKLEY: And let me tell you, Mr. Zimmerman was wrong to pursue -- he was racial profiling. I think Trayvon Martin, God rest his soul, I think he did flip the switch and started beating the hell out of Mr. Zimmerman. But it was just a bad situation. And like I said, the main thing I feel bad for, it gives every black and white person who is racist a platform to vent their ignorance.
That's the thing that bothers me the most because I watched this trial closely and I watch all these people are television talking about it. A lot of people have a hidden agenda. You know, they want their racist views, whether they are white or black --
BARTIROMO: The bias comes out.
BARKLEY: The bias, it definitely comes out. It was a bad situation, we all lost. And I feel bad for his parents. You don't ever want to see anybody lose a kid. (CNBC Closing Bell, July 18, 2013)
now i agree with everything mr.barkley said but lets be clear, trayvon was not, i repeat, was not! racially profiled by mr. zimmerman. mr. zimmerman is a hero with a big heart and was only doing what was right for his fellow homeowners. nothing illegal about following a person but i tell ya what, there is something called assault and that is what trayvon did that night. this is america and i should be able to follow whomever i please without them swinging baboon punches on me.
another point in that bold section i don't agree with is mr. barkley says it gives black and white racists a platform to vent their ignorance, excuse me mr. barkley but if these jigaboos weren't so damn insecure and sensitive about race, the good white man wouldn't have made fun of trayvon. whites are probably the most non racist group out there, but blacks sure to love to oppress others with their racism and they want to cry wolf every chance they get. i hope we hear more from mr. barkley and this isn't a one time attention whore oppportunity for mr. barkley. he needs to keep this up, these negroes need to hear the truth.

I will agree with your skew point if you agree with me that about half of those "crimes" done by blacks are false and trumped up charges. There are plenty of evidence where cops are happy to slap cuffs on a black man.
My point would be that although there are more arrests and a fair share of crimes done by whites, blacks still get profiled and serve longer terms in jail than their white counterparts that does the same crime.

also, police typically spend more time in impoverished areas where the inhabitants are minorities. so they're focusing all of their attention on blacks and latinos. if police spent majority of their time trying to stop fraud, sexual assaults and white collar crimes, the numbers would be flipped. those stats are very misleading.

Its easy to convict a poor minority who has no means to retain a Mark O'Mara or Don West. The easy convictions inflate prosecutors numbers and get them reelected based on people in the community feeling safe. Not saying they should not focus their efforts in both places, but you can see why they stick to the easy convictions.
As a side note, the very special prosecutor who headed the Zimmerman case was the same prosecutor who convicted Marissa Alexander. If Zimmerman is a murderer according to Corey, what is Alexander?

gotcha and i agree. in regards to marissa alexander, it just shows the hypocrisy and inconsistency in florida in regards to their syg and self defense laws. unlike zimmerman, marissa had no criminal record, didn't kill anyone and she was arrested on the spot. she chose to go the stand your ground route and it backfired in her face and got served 20 years in prison, sad.

I think that thanks to the Martin/Zimmerman incident, Alexander might actually stand a chance of getting her conviction overturned. It would be the right thing to do.
I will make two additional notes that don't work in her favor and if a court takes them into consideration they might not overturn the conviction.
1. She went to the marital house after two months of staying away, and it is my understanding that she went while she knew her ex-husband would be away. (She has the right to do this but then she slept at the house instead of leaving before he could come home)
2. After going to her car, she could have fled at this point, no need to go back inside the house.
All that aside though, under the law, she would have been better off taking his life. What does that say about SYG?
Two notes I wanted to add about SYG as I have tried not to weigh in too much to the post trial Zimmerman case:
1. Even though there was not a SYG hearing, in the jury instructions, the court instructed the jury on SYG law. I have seen a few comments on here that incorrectly state that SYG was not a part of the Zimmerman case. They just did not have a SYG hearing.
2. SYG is taking a lot of heat, but one of the main reasons it was instituted so that you could take deadly force before suffering injury or death was to protect women from being raped. No woman should have to wait until after she is raped to use deadly force. I still stand by the real intent of SYG law. Every state needs to reevalute the law and draft exceptions that would prevent armed vigilantism.

Offense intended, this is a stupid argument and it undermines the entire case the prosecution tried to make in the Zimmerman trial. By admitting that he had the right to defend himself, you are in essence, conceding that Martin became the agressor.
If Martin had killed Zimmerman, he might have very well been justified in doing so under SYG. However, he would have had to show that he was in fear of immenent bodily harm or death. A stranger following you would likely not rise to that level. If Zimmerman had been shouting obscenities at him and brandishing his gun, then its a different story. However, you have no proof that he was standing his ground nor do you have any proof that he was not the first to throw a punch.
You position is pieced together by a few rather small inconsistencies that Zimmerman gave law enforcement over a series of 6 interviews. Having been in this business long enough, stories vary every day. The heart of the story stays the same but the details always change. Get over thefact that he was found not guilty. Most reasonably people can reach the conclusion that there was not enough evidence to convict. There was nothing but speculation to support the prosecution, hardley the evidence that rises to beyond a reasonable doubt.

Trayvon Martin's family attorney, Natalie Jackson, tweeted on Thursday that the stand your ground law was a part of this case.
"When we heard B37 speak about it on Anderson Cooper, she said that she really took that into consideration, and the jury did in their verdict. It was on the jury instructions. It was a part of this case. That's the problem in this case. Stand your ground has been used as a default excuse for every action wrong action in this case."
O'Mara disagrees.
"So she [Jackson] can say it's in the jury instruction as she knows. So is excusable homicide, which has nothing to do with this case. Those jury instructions are out there, because the Supreme Court helps come up with them and use them in every case."

" By admitting that he had the right to defend himself, you are in essence, conceding that Martin became the agressor. "
damn, what bullshit.
GZ was the stalking, armed vigilante, initiating the fear-engendering, threatening behavior, based on GZ's racial profiling. TM did nothing but defend himself AGAINST THE ARMED AGGRESSOR. That doesn't make TM the aggressor.

While I agree with O'Mara that it was not apart of the case he was making, the jury could still consider it as it was in the jury instructions and like Jackson said, the juror acknowledged that they used it in reaching their conclusion. I would also imagine that the jury had seen SYG as an issue in this case prior to being selected. We all know that this case was in all of our faces for 16 months. For the jurors and witnesses to suggest that they had not been influenced by all the media information on the case is most likely a lie.

I think that thanks to the Martin/Zimmerman incident, Alexander might actually stand a chance of getting her conviction overturned. It would be the right thing to do.
I will make two additional notes that don't work in her favor and if a court takes them into consideration they might not overturn the conviction.
1. She went to the marital house after two months of staying away, and it is my understanding that she went while she knew her ex-husband would be away. (She has the right to do this but then she slept at the house instead of leaving before he could come home)
2. After going to her car, she could have fled at this point, no need to go back inside the house.
All that aside though, under the law, she would have been better off taking his life. What does that say about SYG?
Two notes I wanted to add about SYG as I have tried not to weigh in too much to the post trial Zimmerman case:
1. Even though there was not a SYG hearing, in the jury instructions, the court instructed the jury on SYG law. I have seen a few comments on here that incorrectly state that SYG was not a part of the Zimmerman case. They just did not have a SYG hearing.
2. SYG is taking a lot of heat, but one of the main reasons it was instituted so that you could take deadly force before suffering injury or death was to protect women from being raped. No woman should have to wait until after she is raped to use deadly force. I still stand by the real intent of SYG law. Every state needs to reevalute the law and draft exceptions that would prevent armed vigilantism.
according to her ex husband's testimony, he wouldn't let her leave the house until she sat down and talked to him. she then ran to the garage to her car to grab her weapon, but she couldn't leave the garage because the door was locked(?)
Gray said that when she tried to leave the bathroom, “I met her where the sink was, and she wanted to get by me and I wouldn’t let her by and I was backing up slow but I was using my body to pretty much contain her in that one area where I want her to be at. [S]he got the bathroom door closed and she locked it, so I were beating on it. [I] was there waiting for her to come out of the bathroom.”
“I was in a rage. I was in a rage, so I was saying a lot of things.” He said, “I beat on the door hard enough where it could have been broken open. [P]robably has some dents.” And: “I was mad, you know … I called her a whore and a bitch.”
“She was trying to get by and I was sitting there trying to make her talk to me. [T]he more she didn’t want to talk about it, the more I was not letting her by.” After she got out of the bathroom, “I was telling her, she ain’t going nowhere, she going to sit right here. [S]he was trying to get by … and I was telling her she not going nowhere.”
He was asked, “Did you ever tell her you knew people that would do your dirt?” Gray said, “Yeah. [I] ain’t going to lie. I been in the streets … I know a lot of people …” Asked if the purpose of “saying something like that was to let her know if she didn’t do what you wanted her to do that you could have hurt her or something?,” he answered, “That’s correct.”
He described her going to the garage, “but I knew that she couldn’t leave out the garage because the garage door was locked …” He reiterated, “I knew she couldn’t get out of the garage.”
“She came back through the doors and she had a gun [from her car]. And she said, ‘You need to leave.’ I told her, I ain’t leaving until you talk to me … and I started walking towards her and she shot in the air.”
Remember, Corey claims that Alexander was not scared at this point. Really. She also claims that Rico Gray lied in this deposition to protect Alexander. Because misogynist monsters always implicate themselves in crimes to protect women.

SYG was BLATANTLY in the judge's instructions and the jury verdict. They said GZ had every right to use lethal force, permitted by FL SYB, to protect himself against TM protecting himself. Before the FL SYG law, the judge's instructions would have been very different, as I posted above.

You Lie, duh
TM had every reason, under FL SYG, to feel REASONABLE fear of and confront, in his own defense, his attacker, even after initially not standing his ground and running away.
Before the jury got the case, lawyers from both sides took them through the evidence again.
Zimmerman’s lead defense attorney, Mark O’Mara, went first. He said Zimmerman is “not guilty of anything but protecting his own life.”
Martin, he said, sowed the seeds of his own destruction.
“We know he had the opportunity to go home, and he didn't do that,” O’Mara said. “The person who decided to make the night violent was the guy who didn't go home when he had the chance.”
There were four minutes from the moment Zimmerman reported to a police dispatcher that Martin was “running” to the moment when a resident called 911 to report a fight in progress, O’Mara said.
To demonstrate that, O’Mara then said nothing for four minutes as Zimmerman nervously mopped his brow.
“Four minutes,” O’Mara told the jury. “That felt like a long time. Four minutes to what? To walk home? To run home?”
But Martin didn’t do that, the lawyer said, adding that he circled back and attacked Zimmerman.
Martin had 4 minutes to walk home from the time Zimmerman told the dispatcher he was running. Martin could have headed home in that time but he decided to lay in wait and ambush Zimmerman. To argue against that makes you look like a fool.

Thanks for the update. It would be a travesty if this case is not overturned.

It's a boilerplate instruction. As O'Mara pointed out, "excusable homicide" is also in the instruction, but had nothing to do with this case.

the boilerplate instructions are informed by the FL SYG law, the boilerplate instructions BEFORE the FL SYG law were different.

Give up. Boutons is just too stupid and butthurt to admit that that it was a legal self defense shoot. Neither the prosecution or the defense addressed SYG during the trial. It was all about "reasonable fear of serious injury". That's why the prosecution expended so much effort trying to trivialize the broken nose and cuts to his head. They were tryuing to convince the jury his fear wasn't reasonable.
