All one has to do is claim that one felt threatened, the burden of proof for these claims has been seriously relaxed. The rate of "justified homocides" has nearly tripled in the state since 2005 when the law was enacted. The law clearly protects this type of vigilanteism. Zimmermann is still a free man at this moment. It looks like that was exactly what happened here. A racist saw a black man and felt threatened. Said "fucking coon" and "these assholes always get away" which is clearly audible on the 911 call. He was told not to approach but did anyway, obviously looking for a confrontation, during which time the unarmed teen was shot. Yeah and he sounds real scared on that 911 call...

You're barking up the wrong tree, sir: first of all it was not a policeman, secondly he was not arrested, and thirdly the charges were dropped, as he knew in advance they would be (i.o.w. he knew in advance he would go unpunished). Besides: many racists consider themselves heroes for killing someone of a different race. And they love to be 'admired' as one. That's probably why he "want[ed] this much attention on himself".

Well, what good is a man to his race behind bars? Such racists are clearly the more stupid amongst their race.

Of course he had to use deadly force. A black kid was walking in his neighborhood.

You should see what happens here, and what used to happen when I was in Germany. Üze Tengri basmasar, asra Yir telinmeser, Türük bodun ilingin törüngin kim artatı udaçı erti? |
