I don't know too much about the details of the Zimmerman case, but I do have mixed feeling about the reaction.... or should I say over reaction.
I feel bad for Martin and his family as it appears that an innocent man was murdered that day.
But I also agree that there is a lot of hypocrisy in all this 'outrage' which I don't think would exist under conditions where a) Zimmerman had been black or b) Martin had been white/Hispanic.
I don't understand why with so many white on white and black on black killings taking place every year no body seems to so much as raises an eyebrow at them, but the moment we have a cross race killing, everyone is up in arms, seems like irrational BS if you ask me.
....I say 'We' because its the same deal in the UK pretty much.
