Preach! I would not have given up. So much so that it would have been a hung jury.

I bet this is just a blip on their screen. What I hope though is that the decision they made haunts them.

Bah-dum!

There is the murder mystery reality game show called Whodunit on ABC. It is super good and fun to try to figure out who in the group is the murderer and who will be killed next. Then there is Criminal minds, Reno 911, Bob's Burgers, and Adventure Time. A movie that is on the edge of your seat good is The Call. It…

Wow.... I mean that in a purely shocked way. If you love her deeply and you want to be with her you should try hard to overcome how you feel about her being white. You should try to help her see through the privilege she has that may not be afforded to the child. I understand your anguish but y'all are raising the…

Live in Florida but I wish I could live in Ireland. Been thinking about it a lot, lately.

I could look into that evil face all the days.

I have lurked on here for about a month and when I heard "not guilty" tonight I cried so hard. I thought I could turn here and I am truly grateful I did. It still hurts but y'all have helped me not feel so damn heavy. Thank you, Jezzies. :)

Black Past 20, that is genius and straight to the point.

I am sure there are tons of stories not being said tonight. I am not a rare occurrence. I just had to get it off my chest it still bugs me to this day. Not trying to take the focus off of Trayvon because for any black person in Florida, we could be him. And really, I feel like it is for any black person in America.…

And I have been know to laugh at the worse times. Sometimes, laughing is just another way to rebel when it feels like events/people in life are trying to break your peace. Also, you are awesome. Keep rebelling anyway you can. :)

I totally feel where you are coming from. I knew I should not have hoped for something other than not guilty. I wanted so badly to be proved wrong, though. :<

There is so much truth in what you said. I am a WoC in Florida and I was writing in a park around seven p.m. Unbeknownst to me (I had my ear buds in) teenagers were acting up. Someone in the neighborhood called the cops. I kid you not, the one cop parked his car maybe three feet from the picnic table I was at and had…

Right?! That is real suspicious. Maybe because church will be tomorrow so they are hoping people will not get out of hand... or it's giving people a whole night of possible rioting without having to worry about work until Monday.

Hey, I know it is hard to see so much anger being pointed at your race. But please know, even though it seems like it, it isn't directed at the whole white race. People are just speaking in anger. I hate how this is making people so mad at each other when most of us feel the same way. It's horrible.

Exactly the point. Role reversal and there would not even had to be a trail. He would've been straight up convicted.

Oh my god, yes! I was thinking, oh, it's because he was black while walking but at this point in my home state all you need to do is be black and breathe.

That is right!!! All he had to do was stay in the car. Just stay in the damn car. It's all messed up in here.

You know I don't! :) Thank you for the bit of humor. It hard to feel something other than numb, ya know?

Somehow this made me laugh just a bit. As a WoC living in Florida I have been seriously thinking about it. Well, that and peacefully walking around everywhere with a hoodie on and a bag of Skittles in my hand.
