At what point did Zimmerman shoot Trayvon because he was black? The media has some of you so brainwashed it's ridiculous. If Trayvon was white 240 and the other assclowns wouldn't give two shits.
I disliked Zimmerman from minute #1 because he immediately claimed he was legally able to shoot based upon "stand your ground" law.
This law is VERY important here in Florida, and ass-hats like him are going to ruin it. Bloomberg immediately began a crusade to have "stand your ground" banned in all 50 states (it's active in about half right now).
He gave the anti-gunners fuel. He could have said "I feared for my life", but he chose to use the stand-your-ground law. Eventually, his own lawyer disowned that policy after the man who wrote the actual law said it didn't even apply here.
Plus, thanks to him, jurors will be quick to convict people who LEGALLY defend themselves to "make it up for trayvon". You carry a gun but your #1 goal is to avoid conflict. Running into the dark with a gun - while police are 60 seconds away? The dude WANTED a fight. He wanted it bad. And he got one, and he started losing so he used his gun.
ANY of us can strap on twin glocks, walk up and down the street and insult people's dead grandmothers until one of them punches us to the ground. Then we can "stand our ground" and shoot their brains out. All day long, right? That's a problem.
