One word: Taser.
I wish more people would carry these instead of guns and maybe this whole discussion would be moot.

For real on the Taser comment. Non-lethal is the way to go. I volunteered to be Tasered during our military training and trust me ...if you Taser someone, they are going to leave you the hell alone!

Florida is pure crazy, I know because I lived there in the late 80's and it only seems worse now that I read about it. My saying Florida is crazy should make you think because I live in Mississippi which is a whole other level.

GZ being non-guilty is a far worse punishment than jail time. He has to live with the fact that he killed a teenager, has to live in hiding for a while, and his life will never be the same.
He'll be faced with people staring at him, calling him names, harassing him, and all sorts of fun stuff which POC have faced for many years.

Maybe he was showing his "poker face" during the trial, but I honestly don't think GZ has the depth of compassion to realize this.
I honestly think he's content with what he did. And now that a jury has found him not guilty, I think it has just reinforced his belief that what he did was right.
I think he has no conscience.

I do sort of feel the same way, honestly. But, there's a rude awakening on its way.

I don't want to see a movie about George Zimmerman.

When it comes to a black life, most folks would be content because in America, a black dude's life isn't worth a shit.

I feel you. He wouldn't last more than a week in prison. Somebody would kill his ass.

Is anyone else completely repulsed by George Zimmerman's appearance? He looks soft and weak which is why he was so threatened by Trayvon. I nean, in addition to the black male thing.

So you can judge someone by their appearance? Isn't that profiling or discrimination?
