Nobody knows what really happened except trayvon and Zimmerman. The justice system relies on reasonable doubt not our emotions.

I am a Latina and I believe that Zimmerman profiled #riptrayvonmartin and murdered him. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.
IT’S SAD TO KNOW A GROWN MAN, CAN GET AWAY WITH MURDERING A 17 TEEN YEAR OLD LACK BOY. JUST SUPPOSE THE SHOE WAS ON THE OTHER FOOT. Prayer to the MARTIN family. I have two son’s myself. God isn’t finished with that sick human. He will get what’s due.
Why do most people feel they have to keep rea$$uring everybody that Trayvon’s murder was not about race. WAKE UP! Zimmerman identified Trayvon to the 911 operator as African American and under his breath, he judged him to be a criminal. So, because Trayvon was Black he must be one of the “punks” that always get away; one of the “a$$holes” who didn’t belong in his neighborhood. In his cold, racist, heart he decided to make sure that THIS one would not get away. He killed him. So, stop saying “it’s not about race, its about right and wrong.” Yes, I agree that it is ALSO about right and wrong; BUT it is mainly about Trayvon being Black and wearing a pulled-up hoodie because it was raining. Zimmerman was wrong and mistaken to profile Trayvon as a criminal JUST because he was BLACK and he didn’t like how he was dressed. smh
This is so wrong Zimmerman day is not too far away.
No justice in babylon for the african descendant.Justice will be WHEN THE creator of this earth TAKE BACK THE PLANET GOD GAVE TO MANKIND. WORLD IS LIKE A ZOO PRESENTLY. THE PLANET REGULATE BY TIME.ALL CREATION OBEY GOD LAW , THOU SHALL NOT KILL, ONLY HUMAN BEING DIS RESPECT GOD CREATION.
blah blah blah blah blah.
