I am currently on leave and have been sitting at home in the morning, enjoying coffee and quiet, and watching the news. Everytime a black person comes on the news and speaks of the Zimmerman case, they speak of it as some sort of horrible atrocity. I have tried my hardest to think from the other side of this thing. I just don't understand where people are getting that this is an error in our justice system. Should Zimmerman have followed him? IDK. I probably would have considering he fit the description of most of the thieves that had been operating in the neighborhood. You see a black male, hiding his face, walking in the rain through your neighborhood. That fits the description of someone up to no good. Regardless of whether he was or not. Then, we know that Martin referred to Z as a honky. That seems lost upon the media. Anyway, Martin was in an advantageous position on Z in this fight. He very easily could have killed Z from that position. I definitely would have shot Martin from that position. Am I missing something here? Is something just totally flying over my head? I just don't see the atrocity in this.
