every since Obama became President. When I look at Fox or when talking heads on Fox are called on their racism they fake their outrage as though it is unbelieveable that they would be called a racist,when they prove it every day.

Zimmerman protectors don't give a damn about Trayvon being stalked and murdered,they are more worried about being called racist. When talking to Joe Oliver his main point is Zimmerman is not a racist.

If he is or isn't doesn't really matter except for the case and how it is tried in court but, the main thing that is so outrageous with all of his defenders who keep shouting about innocent until proven guilty is. They know he murdered Trayvon and they don't give a damn.

They know he has not been arrested and they don't give a damn. They know that if the murdered boy was white they would be screaming like hell for an arrest, hypocritical,racist,assholes. I hope you don't like my post.
