    Zimmerman's life is pretty well ruined whether he is innocent or guilty thanks to the media and folks who do not have the entire story. If guilty he should go to prison, but if found innocent I will be surprised if there is a single apology from the media or the folks who roasted him.

    In arizona tuesday night a white guy walking his dog near a taco bell is almost run over by a black guy coming out of the drivethrough. The white guy starts yelling at the black guy who is still in his car. The black guy shoots and kills the white guy from the car claiming self defense under the stand your ground law. No arrests have been made. Wtf. But it has not made the front page. Where ya at on this one al sharpton?. Google arizona taco bell shooting. It will open your eyes.

    The white guy turned out to be mentally handicapped and the dog was his service animal.

    Where's the ADA on this, if no one else?

    Y'all go Google "The Wichita Horror" and read the whole transcript.
    It was not declared a "hate crime".

    I think everyone is taking liz lopezs comment a little too far. I think she accidentally used an absolute statement when she didnt mean to. She was just trying to say that mixed kids are just as beautiful as black, hispanic, white, yellow, green, red, purple kids etc. Her point was NOT to say that "mixed kids are the most beautiful and all other races are ugly". She just worded it poorly lol. I work with someone who is white but has a black husband. All her kids are very cute but arent any more beautiful than other peoples kids...

    And that Arizona case is absolutely awful. Racism is never going to cease. I just cant see it happening. The other nite in the OT period of the Bruins game it just so happened that a black player scored the winning goal. The reaction of boston fans on twitter was calling the man the n-word. It wasnt just one or two people, it was like 40-50, enough that an article online was written about it. It was a tough time to be a bruins fan. Not because they lost, but because of the reaction of the fans to Joel Ward scoring the winning goal.
