Their child wasn't murdered, he was killed in self-defense. Anyone who thinks that is an injustice is letting emotion and racial bias cloud their judgement. I'm not saying I wouldn't be every emotional if it was my son, but it's still irrational, and I'd still be able to keep my composure.

He could have stayed in his car, but why should he? Why should he let the thugs terrorizing his neighborhood call the shots? The only person to escalate the situation into a physical confrontation was Trayvon, because Zimmerman had already lost him long before he had chance to call out or identify himself.

It's clearly what she was implying, even if subconsciously, because nobody would be amazed at a white couple not screaming during an interview on live television.

Sure......and George Zimmerman could just have stayed in bed that day and none of this would ever have happened, right? Maybe, but why should decent people allow themselves to be intimidated and made prisoners in their own homes and communities by violent little thugs?

The thing is, if Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton were white, we'd expect them to be able to show grace and composure. Yet because they're black, everyone is surprised that they managed not to "go ghetto", as if that's some awe-inspiring achievement. It's as if you stereotype and blacks and hold them to a lower…

So because she's black, you're amazed she didn't go ghetto, with all the finger pointing and head bobbing, over the tiniest provocation? Sounds like racial stereotyping to me......

Of course, we'd all be much better off if we lived in a black male patriarchy like Haiti or Zimbabwe.

It's usually a safe bet that anyone who refers to killing a fetus in terms of "my body, my choice" is a slut.

There's been a lot, but I used that particular example since the article was talking about the detective genre.

They destroy any neighborhood they live in, terrorizing people with crime and general anti-social behavior. They're a huge burden on the white taxpayer, since most of them are either unemployed, single mothers or in jail. They're constantly whining about racism, even though they are the most racist people by far, and…

What's wrong with it? We have exactly the same problem in America. There is a population that is well known for its poor work ethic and the disproportionate amount of crime it commits.

I don't know anyone who fears homosexuals. I know a lot of people who are disgusted, yes, but nobody who is fearful.

Black people are flattering themselves if they think they're important enough to be worthy of being despised by white people. It's beneath them. The fact is, white people wouldn't waste a drop of their mental energy on black people, if black people weren't making life so miserable for them. Nobody would even give…

Can you explain Agatha Christie's very successful career writing detective books if sexism is as rampant as you imagine? Maybe female authors who don't sell a lot of books just aren't as good as they think they are....

So that's why nobody bought Agatha Christie's detective books. Oh wait....

Of course you don't have the right to attack people just because you think they're following you. Only when they become a physical threat do you have the right to fight back. And if you recall, Zimmerman had already reported Martin for his suspicious behavior before he was killed, so there's no reason to think there…

The problem is, you can't "take back" what was never yours to begin with.

Zimmerman was well within his rights to follow Trayvon, who was acting suspiciously. That doesn't give him the right to attack Zimmerman. Nevertheless, Martin had already lost Zimmerman, and then he decided to ambush him. At this point, Martin had initiated the confrontation and Zimmerman was right to defend himself.

The candy was for a drug concoction called lean/purple drank, but you're right, none of that, including his age, matters. The only thing that matters is that he was pounding Zimmerman's head into the sidewalk, therefore Zimmerman had every right to kill him in self-defense.

What about the "Don't Snitch" policy in the black community?
