To Whom Is George Zimmerman a Hero? And Why?

[emperus]

And there you go with the premise that only blacks can "know" what racism is

News flash, blacks can perpetuate it as well as receive, I've witnessed it on both sides, that you are ignorant enough to keep alluding that it's impossible is beyond retarded. The "world" hasn't been racist to you either, a few select morons maybe, but far from the world. And that you want to paint whites with the broad brush of all being racist if they don't agree with you once again defines a racist. Keep making my point. And you aren't listening to jack, you pull your head out of your rectum just long enough to stick your fingers in your ears.

Who would have thunk, you don't have any examples.

Because for you racism is purely a concept, a theory, that you think about at times. And because you feel that since you've thought about it while sitting on the toilet a couple of times, somehow that gives you the profound ability to understand it and know what it is when someone faces racism. And that thus gives you the ability to freely throw the word around. Grow up.

If you really want to stop sounding like an idiot. Try this. If you play games online, change your avater to a black person and leave it for a while. I guarantee you'll have a new perspective on how many racist people there are in this world.

They didnt think he was a hero, but they were fine with letting him go:

That is the overwhelming consensus amongst certain groups on this forum.

You should've seen them get upset when a mexican poster claimed they see racism just as much as whites who live in a predominantly black area. I'm pretty sure a couple of heads exploded.

George Zimmerman is the man. Dirty officials and the media and crazy ex girlfriends did all they could to falsely convict the guy, to advance their own personal and political agenda and they failed. Then sells artwork on ebay to try and get out of the debt they created for him. They supressed TM damning texts and history. It was a total railroad job. The prosecution was so dishonest and GZ still won. Then they attack the stand your ground law, even though the stand your ground law was not even used in GZ defense!

I dont think he's The Man. But he definitely got railroaded by the media and public officials looking to improve their stature, which in my opinion was the real crime here. Abuse of the justice system is much worse than any single killing, premeditated or not.
It means hundreds or maybe even thousands of people in the future might not get real justice, because emotion and ignorance determined their fates.


Dont American blacks spend a fair amount of time complaining they cant get real justice in the unfair U.S. legal system?

Great. Another article depicting Treyvon as an angelic 12 yr old.

Guess they just couldn't get hold of the more current photos. I'm sure they tried hard to.

Zimmerman is a hero to America. He took everything they had and kept getting back up. What they tried to do to him, they could do to any one of us who defended himself against a thug or thug in training. I dont even blame TM. He was a product of his own dysfunctional culture that is protected and promoted by the left.

 

[zanejohnson]

There was the perception being pushed by many that basically believed the primary intent of "stand your ground" laws was specifically to legalize the murder of black people.

And Zimmerman was the prime example "proving" their beliefs.


Does someone out there worship Zimmerman? I don't fucking care. But those who wanted Zimmerman punished to the extreme, those who believed that an innocent verdict meant slavery was back in full force, those who were itching to bring back to life the fights of the 60's, I am fully against and believe most rational people are against.

Zimmerman was a pawn in the shit-storm, and I do kind of feel sorry he suffered the wrath of the stupid from within our country.

That's as far as I care on this subject.

you put that into words nicely, my thoughts as well

Either to lazy to actually read the article or a liar as the article does no such thing

Well, they could have used this one from several days before he was killed.

Instead, they used the picture that the family's lawyer states is from the year before, when he was 16.

Bahahahaha is that what crump the chump and known liar said? And you believe it??

Almost every statement that family made was an embellishment or flat out lie. Every statement made revolved around making sure they got their payout from the situation.

At this point with all that has come out you shouldn't be believing anything from the family.

"Trayvon was a good boy never in any trouble, all A kid, working to enter the Air Force".... Right. And dee dee was a reputable witness too. I mean the entire case revolved around her superstar testimony.

Skim that article. If you still believe that pic is from 1 year before the incident you're either a moron or intellectually dishonest.

Who gives a shit. None of the above has anything to do with what was being discussed.

Why don't you go stroke your gun for a while and calm down.

Did I say I believed it? Nope, I didn't. And again, ain't the point of the discussion.

Really, go stroke your gun and calm down.

Next time maybe pay attention to what's being discussed?

Zimmerman is no Hero, but the mob who attacked him are Villains. He's angelic by comparison.

 

[trenchfoot]

With death threats, continuous negative publicity and his own weird behavior being piled onto having TM's ghost following him around 24/7/365, I really can't see how anyone would admire him for the predicament he put himself in.

He is one seriously damaged human being, all due to the choices he made just before and ever since he killed TM.

I really don't see anything about him that I would think is worthy of admiration in the slightest.

 

[nehalem256]

I think Zimmerman is more of a living martyr than hero.

Yeah they did. I'm now looking at the photo they posted.

Try reading he actual words of the article and then show us exactly where the article depicts him "as an angelic 12 yr old" and no, pointing to that picture being used (as it's pretty much the 'stock' photo used in almost every article out there) is not enough to back up your claim especially given that the only people claiming that the picture is of him at 12 are those with a specific axe to grind against him and his family.

Again, where are the words to back your claim?

The only thing this guy is a martyr to is his own stupidity.

lol another individual that didn't watch the trial or is biased.


VG, the only thing that matters is the 45 second recorded 911. Why?


Too bad Z didn't shoot his femoral artery when he re-holstered.


Fern...truth speaker.

So, your claim is based simply on the use of one picture that has been used as the 'stock' photo of the kid by papers and magazines and television all over the world but can't actually find any words in the article itself.

Ok, sounds totally reasonable to me.

They probably should have gone with the pic from 9 days before he was killed cause that one really makes him look like a 'thug', sooo much older.

I think this one is more accurate to his behaviour. His reputation as the school's street fight referee. His own statements that he likes to make people bleed. His extremely documented history involving thousands of dollars in stolen jewelry being trafficked from one city to another.
