    Are people too stupid that they believe everything the biased, fact leaving out media tells them?

    The shooter was also the 911 caller (who was attacked). Zimmerman was detained (in handcuffs, yes you can be hauled in with handcuffs on and not be arrested and/or formally charged).

    It was determined that he didn't commit an intentional murder as he claim he acted in self defense, so he was released pending the outcome of the investigation (DA's decision). I know some of you don't like it that we have rights in this country (sure seems that way anyhow).

    Are people too stupid to realize that racially conservative white guys don't give a flying **** about black on black crime, and never, ever will?

    It doesn't seem like guys like Louis Farakhan or Jessie Jackson do either.... Hmmmm.

    Don't take my word for it take the former NAACP leader CL Bryants word.

    Translation: Don't believe the media, believe George Zimmerman!

    Not every shooter gets arrested. They have to have enough evidence to support an arrest. Many times an arrest occurs weeks later after more evidence is discovered.

    Who's too _______ to realize that you don't make overly broad statements about anyone or anything but the Utah Jazz?

    It should be noted that hpd is still searching for the suspected shooter, so epic fail OP, this isn't like the Trayvon Martin case at all.

    and posted yesterday at 7:14 AM on chron.com's comment section of the link in the OP. so good job, OP, you found the most polarizing lightning rod of a post in a totally unrelated topic and copy/pasted it here for all to see.

    the whole where's the outrage routine for every crime including or committed by a black person just continue to show the sad state of affairs this country has stooped to. the Trayvon Martin thread, and this thread, and every thread in response is just plain absurd entertainment for some people.

    I have seen more like them on facebook, the new chainmail trash depot for morons on the internet. one involved the sensationalistic (5 year old hyperbolized story) of the white couple Channon Christian and Christpoher Newsom tortured by 4 black men and a black woman. it was attached to a "where's the outrage?" style meme and had been shared by 20,000+ viewers.

    they are entirely different stories and crimes, give up the schtick and let people be upset at the boy who was killed while walking in the rain with his hoodie on.

    people are more upset at the way people react to the story or the way the story is covered by the media than the story itself- and that is sad.

    Could you elaborate on this statement? Are you encouraging being a vigilante and / or supporting Zimmerman by saying that people have had enough?
