Citizens have the right to intervene in criminal actions if they see them, we do not give these up to the police, we merely lend them to them.
So what your saying is if the police cannot handle crime in an area people are just supposed to accept the fact and wait to be victims?
Since Martin was not engaged in criminal activity, Zimmerman was not intervening in a criminal action. I am curious, given that Martin was being followed by Zimmerman, what was he permitted to do to protect himself? If you were just walking along minding your own business and I attempted to stop and interrogate you, are you supposed to just stand there and take it?
Martin is black. You will never get any of these right wingers to admit any other possibility than that kid was a dangerous thug that needed to be put down. Even something as obvious as, "If Zimmerman was being beaten and smothered, how was he able to get the safety disengaged and why were his injuries so slight?"
Martin is black, period. The endless anti black threads on this site underline what the white wingers feel about African Americans. If the races were reversed, Zimmerman would already be on death row and we all know it.
And according to Martin, Zimmerman was a "Creepy Ass Cracker".....but that's not racist at all huh? Hell Zimmerman didn't even know the kid was black until he was face to face with him! Just love how you just know the truth when you were never there and there's no proof of anything you say.....
