    LOL, only one of the two referred to the other using a racial slur before attacking them....

    I'm sure you think following someone is just as bad as using racial slurs and attacking people, but most of the world disagrees with that opinion.

    I don't know where you get that from - the witness said he wasn't sure if TM used a racist remark. Some said GZ called TM a coon. But whatever, that's not the issue. That's what you focus on - is words. Words isn't the problem.

    The problem is assuming someone is a criminal because they are black.

    And that's what BLM is about - just making sure that cops treat blacks like they do whites. That's it. To call that a racist organization is just disgusting. It's a noble ask to fight for equality. And the right is trying to call it a hate group. So sad.

    If it doesn't mean anything, why did the producers edit the tape so that it said something completely different?

    GZ's "word" was recorded by the 911 operator and later played for all the world to hear which settles what was said and how it was said ONCE AND FOREVER.

    you accuse the producers of editing the tape to change what GZ says and use a lawsuit that was thrown out of court as your proof!

    I mean, what's wrong with you?

    Who gives a rip about the lawsuit? The whole world understands that NBC edited the tape for ratings. I could have picked any number of links to support this; I chose the least conservative one just to wet down that gunpowder.

    That's only the case in your head. I think you project a lot of your own racist views onto others quite often. This certainly seems like one of those cases.

    LOL, yeah, BLM is about defending the guilty and trying to lynch the innocent. That was true in the Martin case, that was true in the Brown case. I'm sorry if you aren't bright enough to realize what their agenda is, but you really just embarrass yourself when you try to defend what you clearly don't understand.

    Of the two of them, one was confirmed to have made a racist comment. It wasn't Zimmerman.

    The only witness on trial said they were not sure if Martin made a racist remark. So confirmed by whom? GZ? That POS's confirmation means nothing? TM? He's dead.

    Who confirmed? What confirmed? This is where you lose cred when you make stuff up like this.

    And you also show you don't understand what racism really is. Heck even Mark Cuban says he would cross the street if he saw a black kid with a hoodie on. Racism isn't about racist comments, it's about judging people and acting differently. Racism doesn't always make a person this horrible evil thing. Cuban isn't a horrible person for fearing black people in hoodies, I respect him for being open and honest with his fears.

    But it's time people stop saying that, "Well if he didnt say anything racist how is it racism" b.s.

    If you knew what you were talking about, you'd probably have more credibility. The witness testified that he referred to Zimmerman as a "creepy ass cracker"....then tried to say that wasn't a racist remark. If a witness testified that Zimmerman had called Martin the N word, would you then accept that it wasn't a racist remark?

    When you use a racial slur, then attack someone....it's a pretty safe bet that race played a role in the assault. What's sad is if it was reversed, you'd agree with me, but unfortunately you judge situations by the color of people's skin rather than the facts of the case.

    We should really move on from the Martin case anyway, the kid was a POS, and if he wasn't a POS, he'd still be alive. In fact, if he was either a halfway decent person OR a coward he'd still be alive. The only reason he's dead is because he was an awful person that finally assaulted someone with a gun.

    We don't know who started the fight between Martin and Zimmerman. We only know there was one.

    Martin life doesn't count. If you are suspicious looking, your life doesn't count by folks like Bobby. That Martin isn't completely crime less, whatever the suspected crimes, is reason enough for him to not deserve to live.
