When I read the reports concerning the released tapes
1) I find it disturbing the police did not arrest Zimmerman and cite there is not enough reasonable cause when there obviously is enough cause to suspect this is murder and not self defense. I remember a case in texas where a guy shot and killed robbers who were actively robbing his neighbors house, despite the instructions of the 911 operator. The robbers both turned and fled and were shot in the back. He was arrested immediately. This guys shooting is far more flagrant, with more evidence pointing against him, and still no arrest.
2) I find it disturbing that no one came to help the young man as he was crying for help. No one even came outside.
3) I find it disturbing the police witheld such critical information for nearly 2 months now for relatively no reason. I am not sure if this is standard operating procedure, but typically when things are held in darkness there are usually ulterior motives afoot.
Overall this case is a black mark on the police force in that city and heads should roll when its all said and done.
Oh and yes, racism does play a significant role in this story. People who have never experienced racism are the same who claim it doesn't exist in today's day and age.
