George Zimmerman was found not guilty, but he is surely not innocent

I want to slap the smile off his face, for to me it says, "I got away with it" and lacks any sign of remorse.


Do I think Zimmerman targeted Martin to murder in cold blood? No. He is the victim of a racist society that criminalizes young Black men. He is a wanna-be cop with a vigilante bug up his ass. He acted stupidly, irresponsibly, and against orders. It is for these things that he must take responsibility.

As for the Whites out there who revel in Zimmerman's verdict, who feel vindicated in their racist assumptions about Trayvon Martin, I have to say to you... FUCKING BE HONEST ABOUT WHO YOU ARE! If you feel as I have described then YOU ARE A RACIST.

I don't have time to school the ignorant in their intellectual and moral failings, but Tim Wise gets paid to do so. I suggest you check it out:
