None of that was said on the phone by Zimmerman. And he would have said those things if he'd seen those things happening. Buuuut he didn't.

As for your description of Trayvon's character, he must have been all of those things... because he was black. Obviously.

Buuuut in Trayvon's cell phone conversation with prosecution witness Rachel Jeantel, (just moments before he was shot in Self Defense), she testified that Trayvon made a reference about Zimmerman being a "creepy ass cracker" who was watching him. Sounds racist to me.

In fact actually, on cross examination by Zimmerman's defense attorney, he asked Rachel Jeantel if she thought that Trayvon's "creepy ass cracker" remark was racist. Of course her reply was no.

In her CNN interview with Piers Morgan Rachel Jeantel said that Trayvon was creeped out thinking that Zimmerman might be a White gay rapist...

Quote:In a televised interview Monday evening, CNN host Piers Morgan asked Jeantel if Martin was “freaked out” by Zimmerman following him.

“Yes,” said Jeantel. “Definitely after I say he might be a rapist.”

Jeantel explained her thought process accordingly, “For every boy, for every man, every – who’s not THAT kind of way, seeing a grown man following them, would they be creeped out?”

Jeantel expanded on the conversation she and Martin shared prior to Martin beating Zimmerman. “And people need to understand, he didn’t want that creepy ass cracker going to his father or girlfriend’s house to go get – mind you, his little brother was there. You know – now mind you, I told you – I told Trayvon it might have been a rapist,” said Jeantel.

It doesn't matter how many circles you run around in or how long you argue, the guy was found not guilty... not because he isn't guilty, and not based on self-defense or stand your ground which, unlike popular belief, was mentioned and explained to the jurors. It wasn't based on evidence. It was based on the fact that there wasn't enough evidence to convict.

Someone on reddit jokingly referred to Zimmerman as a "fucking wannabe fireman" because of that news story. :-P

Here's this:

http://gawker.com/juror-who-let-zimmerma...socialflow

"Despite having been empowered to make sure Zimmerman didn't get away with murder, Maddy, who believes the case should not have gone to trial in the first place, says she ended up voting to acquit because the evidence did not prove Zimmerman was a murderer under Florida law."
