I know that an armed man with a violent criminal history shot and killed an unarmed kid with no history who was on his way back from the store, talking on the phone to his girlfriend. Did Martin have a psychotic episode and attempt to kill a stranger despite having no demonstrable violent or criminal tendencies? Did Zimmerman get lost in his own neighborhood and get attacked while checking a street sign? Did Martin say "You got me!" like in a fucking cartoon after he was shot through the chest? Who knows! We'll see how the trial goes. But as reasonably intelligent people, it's our privilege to look at that stuff and say: Fuck that.
Diverting attention away from the actual events of the incident and toward playing on people's prejudices about scary black people isn't really an interesting path for the discussion to take.
PEEP DAT THUG
