(27,275 posts)the other person was simply walking home from the store...armed with ice tea and skittles. following someone who you think "looks suspicious" is not sensisble, nor is having a gun in your car pretending to be the neighborhood cop. stalking someone you think is "suspicious" because of his age and race is not sensible either. nor is getting out of the car to confront said individual when the police already told your dumb ass to stay in the car. finally, killing an unarmed teenager because you think he doesn't belong in your neighborhood is not sensible either, whether or not that person was from a big city or not. zimmerman was clearly the aggressor, unless you believe all black males are inherent dangerous, which would not surprise me at all. in a sane country, zimmerman would have been charged with first degree murder. i pray he gets convicted on the lesser charge...he most certainly deserves it.
