Considering Islam is a religion and not a race, I would say its not safe to assume thugs as a synonym as blacks. But hey, this is exactly what im talking about. There are too many people trying to make this about race. Quite frankly, its tiresome. How are we ever suppose to look past race (or other PC subjects) when every incident regarding a certain stereotype is automatically brought up.
potential juror who pretended to be an apolitical Fox News viewer gets caught by Zimmerman lawyers posting pro-Trayvon stuff on Facebook http://thenewsjunkie.com/potential-juror-for-zimmerman-murder-trial-lies-to-get-his-revenge/
The fact that he has never shot a Swedish guy before. If you really think that race didn't factor into the decision to follow Martin, you need to get in touch with reality.
Here are the opening lines of the transcription. Interesting to note that it is the dispatcher who initiates the racial discussion. Zimmerman does not at all come across as pre-disposed as to what he was "hunting..." Zimmerman: We’ve had some break-ins in my neighborhood and there’s a real suspicious guy. It’s Retreat View Circle. The best address I can give you is 111 Retreat View Circle. This guy looks like he’s up to no good or he’s on drugs or something. It’s raining and he’s just walking around looking about. [00:25] 911 dispatcher: OK, is he White, Black, or Hispanic? Zimmerman: He looks black.

I was looking at some pictures of Zimmerman today and everything he is doing is so sneaky and orchestrated. He went from a thin in shape guy with a shaved head to a very chubby wimpy looking man. Add that with all of his lying about finances and it paints a picture of a sneaky devious person.
You shouldn't judge anybody based on outward appearances. Stick to facts, logic and reason. You'll be better off for it.
His appearance has changed dramatically since we first saw him.......fact. He and his wife lied to the judge.......fact.
Son, you accused him of being "sneaky and orchestrated" -- that's where you distanced yourself from fact, logic and reason.
Lying about finances and coming up with secret signals with your wife in order to do so might well qualify as being sneaky and orchestrated.
I really don't care about that. I also don't care about Zimmerman lying about his finances so much accept what kind of impact that has on his credibility. But you more or less claimed that saying Zimmerman was sneaky and calculating was departure from anything based in facts. I really only care about the night of the incident and those facts.
Agreed 100%. He was certainly deceptive about his finances. That doesn't make him a killer. I will completely agree that he is sneaky and calculating, but again, that doesn't make him a killer. I think Zimmerman knows the law and knows how to play it. I just don't see him instigating a fight. To me that seems reckless. I do question whether or not he really felt his life was in danger. This we will never know.
