Nonetheless, it is my feeling that perhaps there is such blind denial of racial profiling and it's prevalence that perhaps the victims of this crime *the child's family* felt there would be no other way than to engage in such tactics to bring the truth to light about the core issue which is racisim. I don't buy that Zimmerman was a racisist, I believe he has a personality disorder and knew exactly how to play out the scenario to land himself in a position where he's still walking free at this moment. The greater insult and injustice is the Sanford Police Department's misapplication of the law in a case that is so blatantly clear a case of excessive force. Heresay says Zimmerman was attacked and had a broken nose yet he is shown on the video walking into the station with Police without a shred of any evidence of a broken nose...something is fishy with all of it and perhaps neither you nor I will ever know the real truth. It is my hope taht regardless, this is one case where 'manipulation' might serve to open up dialogue and understanding as the one place where we both agree is that we have to do more to save our kids and 'color' does not have anything to do with it...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
