and wat is up with these outdated pictures of TRAYVON ??? why are they ( the p.o.s. national media ) showing more recent photos of him ?? ya know like the one on his facebook page where he looks like a straight up thug filling the camera off with both hands ???? well, i guess that may take a little sting out of the story - wouldn't much help THEIR cause.

everyone jumping on the band wagon without all of the facts - you people are pathedic all you want is an excuse to spew your own hatred towards another race (white and especially blacks) why are folks even arguing black white issues ? zimmerman looks to be hispanic ( not white ) how did white folks get dragged into this one ? and by the way - the national media DOES NOT cover stories in the same manner when it is a black on white crime. you barely hear about it...

@Raptor, though I can't really understand what you're responding to in your rant, but I'm going to agree with you about Wright, Sharpton, and Jackson. Their only purpose when involved in anything is seemingly to make it all about racism and make it worse than it already is. As for the rest of your arguement, if we're gonna drag up all the horrible things done in the past that were fueled by racism, I don't think you're pity party for white people will hold up very well.

How about the white school student that was stalked, followed home, then set on fire by two blacks? As one black poured gas on him and lit it he said,"You get what you deserve white boy." Is that racial enough for you goldy? Wher's the press? The outrage? How about the black panthers putting out a bounty? Not rascist? How about interfering with white voters going to vote? Guess that wasn't racial either. Eric Holder looked the other way. Does ACORN ring a bell? Welcome to obamaville. It is ok to hate whites, suppress their rights, do what you want. But reverse it and all hell breaks out. Let a black not get their way in something. This is how it is today Goldy. Affirmitive action. Lowering SAT requirements for schools. An entire month of black history. The list goes on. Call it what it is, reversed discrimination. All these things had good intentions, some even necessary at points in time. But now just like the NAACP, a lot have outlived their purpose and become tools that now only incite racism. Just like wright and sharpton. I know not all blacks discriminate, but neither do all whites. The truth is more and more white people are growing tired, thus prejudice is revived, and the NAACP and such create a future for themselves.

I'm gonna have to disagree with you there myersbraden, but only because you're so extremely wrong. When white people are murdered, the police damn sure try to put someone in jail and do a thorough investigation. Aside from that, I'm pretty disappointed in the black community over thier reaction to this, as it is 100% motivated by racism. The same racism that cost that boy his life. 17 year old black boys are murdered EVERY DAY by other teenaged black boys. This tragedy in FL was an isolated incident and NOT common. I understand the outrage, but I also have faith that the justice system will come through and doesn't need the help of the whole country's rage to do so. It is shameful to see the black community so concerned over the death of one boy when hundreds of young black men are murdered by other young black men for much stupider reasons for every one of these random incidents. Where's all the outrage for the thousands of black teenagers who were killed by other black teenagers last year? How come Al Sharpton isn't trying to fix that??

Wonder if these people are also marching for John Sanderson? Ya know,, the white man killed by a black man. Funny how that happens when hardly a sound is made when a white man is killed.
