(43,173 posts)So George Zimmerman was multiracial. (We already knew that).
And there had been break-ins in the neighborhood where the culprits were alleged to have been young black males.
Not to be flippant, but so fucking what?
That doesn't change the fact that the evidence points to George Zimmerman racially profiling Trayvon Martin for no justifiable reason. Nothing I've read suggests that Trayvon was doing anything except walking home from the store wearing a hoodie.
So other black males may have been involved in crime in the neighborhood--what on earth does that have to do with Trayvon Martin? What was Trayvon Martin doing that was so suspicious to George Zimmerman, other than being a young black male wearing a hoodie and walking at night? I still haven't heard anything to support any reasonable belief that Trayvon Martin was actually acting suspiciously that night. Nothing. Notta. Nilch.
