The real shame is people treat the death of another human being as if it was nothing more than collateral garbage. Trayvon Martin was a real kid, not a bad ass, presented with in HIS mind at the time Im sure was a life or death situation. I think he was scared. So he ran. But he didnt want to look like a punk in front of his girlfriend. Presented with the same set of circumstances, you are a lying piece of shit if you try to say that ANY 17 yr old American male of ANY RACE would have acted differently. He didnt deserve to die. Its that simple.

Zimmerman is also a very young man. A young man who ruined at least two lives. He should have never been armed. He should have never followed with his vehicle. He should have never exited his vehicle. He should have never confronted that boy. He started the fight by chasing then exiting his vehicle and confronting someone with a visible firearm. If you start a conflict with someone then in the middle YOU START TO LOSE you cant then claim self defense. I dont think that Zimmerman was racist. He is just like the rest of America. We classify things by the way they look.

A shame all the way around. I personally think he wanted Martin to get the upperhand so that he could use his firearm. He knew the laws and people who look like him would protect him. Any grown man who has used his body before in athletic, or physical activity for a period of time knows theres a big difference between 17 and 28, which is why there are no 17 yr old professional football players. No excuse for the adult in this situation, stop blaming the victim.
