... Well, this thread got racist fast.

My opinion: I don't have all the evidence, hopefully the truth will come out over the course of the trial.

Where was all the national media coverage over http://topconservativenews.com/2013/03/ ... fun-of-it/ this story. I guarantee you if that baby was black and those teens were white; it would have been everywhere.

While this did happen (probably; it hasn't gone to trial yet), you really shouldn't get your news from the Daily Mail, or anyplace using it as a source.

I would. Those black extremist will go crazy if they don't give him anything short of the death sentence.

i kinda agree. this whole thing may turn into rodney king if these black extremist groups that you talk of get riled up.

Yeah I understand. I had heard of the story before on the national news, but when I looked it up this was the first link I found.

Alright, yeah, that's fine.

I really haven't seen any coverage about the trial myself. Probably because I follow BBC and they don't spend quite as much time on US sensationalism. So I can't really comment on whether it's been getting too much attention, though it wouldn't surprise me at all if it was.

To be fair, it seems to be pretty much impossible to avoid when talking about this case.

I have yet to see any racism in this topic... Talking about race is not equivalent to racism.

Considering the only reason he was arrested was because they were threatening lynch mobs practically...

I don't expect anything from the general population. Zimmerman will probably have to go into hiding or get killed by the Black Panthers. They're so radical and the government doesn't do anything to even deter them, so there's no telling what they will do.

Would never see 'white' people doing that if the shoe was on the other foot. Arab Muslims and blacks are a lot closer to the same cradle than a lot of people believe. Just saying what I have observed over the many years of journalism reports.

Yeah, I remember all those white people flipping out when OJ was acquitted. They practically destroyed North Dakota....those bastards.
