This is far bigger than just Martin and Zimmerman; this is about culture, the media and our current administration.
Our POTUS decided to pick a side early on and still sticks to that side. We had a media that at best distorted information (Zimmerman's race and his injuries) and at worst fabricated information (NBC doctoring the 911 tapes). We have a culture that seems to think that when one demographic does something it is perfectly fine, but when another does it is not.
For example:
When did wearing hoods that obscure who you are become ok?
When did skulking around at night become ok?
When did turning on and beating someone simply for following you become ok?
Who was the one making racist comments?
So if a white guy in a hood, waiting for a black guy who was following him, jumped him and beat him, made racist remarks etc, what would the sides be saying about that?
This case was more about character than anyone would like to admit. TM was portrayed as some child with candy and GZ was portrayed as some racist white guy who simply did not like black kids. We were inundated with this for what seemed like forever. Now the jury has given a verdict and we still have people out there spewing the lies put out there by the media, trying to have Stand your ground laws repealed etc. Trayvon Martin's father was on capital hill wanted a fed law to repeal SYG laws and have that named after his son.
Now, if truth was what was portrayed none of this drama would have unfolded this way. So, I agree with people, this case is hardly settled and TM, our POTUS and the media have a lot to answer for.
