Ultimately, the character of Zimmerman or Martin doesn't matter. Bad grades or getting suspended from school are not factors that justify killing someone. It's easy to get angry about the media portrayal of this event as white guy kills black guy, which in this case is both untrue and unfair. I think it's BS too. It's happening because there is just no solid information about what happened, so people naturally have to fill things in.
Martin is dead, and Zimmerman killed him. No one seems to be disputing that. All that really matters is determining whether Zimmerman's killing was justifiable under the law or not. The big failure here was the police department's failure to investigate the killing.
I have to agree that it was incredibly stupid of Obama to make comments about his case, but it's election season, so I'm not surprised.
I agree with a lot of what you are saying but I disagree with you saying the police department didnt investigate the killing. Zimmerman was cuffed and questioned at the scene, 911 tapes were viewed, and witnesses were questioned. The issue is more a lack of information then a failure to seek it out.

Nearly three in four Americans think police should arrest George Zimmerman after the shooting death of Trayvon Martin one month ago in Florida, according to a CNN/ORC poll released today.
In the same survey, only about one in four felt that neighborhood watch members should carry guns, but a little more than half approved of "stand your ground" laws.

It doesnt matter if 99% of Americans think he should be arrested, we are a nation of laws and if what he did was within the letter of the law - and the police seem to think it was - he should not be arrested, especially if it is just to appease an increasingly stupider American public.

So Trayvon was 6'3" 140 lbs. And Zimmerman is 5'9" 250lbs. Can anyone confirm?

I didnt realize it was ok to attack someone was long as you had a weight advantage.

Look, its not like I enjoy reading about some little black kid getting shot. I feel for his parents. But this whole thing has become so ridiculous its absurd and the people blowing it out of proportion are just fawning all over themselves to get people riled up and trying to turn it into a 'kill whitey' moment when its so far from that its obscene.

So if Z listens to the police and doesn't follow him, we wouldn't have this mess?

So a group called the New Black Panther Party put a 10k bounty on this Zimmerman guy's head.
Is this guy on the run or something?
Did they put a hit out on him?
I don't understand.
