That's the point being made with Zimmerman.
So what was the motivation? The guy was doing nothing and he was attacked.. Do you think that these hoodlums could lie about it????.... Naaaaaa.... They have such great character.

In counterpoint, you have this from August 2011 and these same teens may have beaten a black homeless man as well.

Exactly. When black ppl are assaulted, it's usually under the radar, because, they're not really people, don't you know, so ... who cares? Blacks getting wailed on is o r d i n a r y, it happens every day. Nothing newsworthy about it, unless a cop does it.

Enjoy yourselves a good whine.

Great!

Let's keep them "occupied" and well engaged on a chain gang. That way, they will never be bored.
