Whats with the George Zimmerman case?

The media and black people are making such a big deal about it, but I dont see the problem. I mean, am sure everyday a black guy gets killed by a white guy somewhere, and I've seen WORST murder cases. So whats wrong?

The big deal you dumb fuck is that this was a race case! George Zimmerman (who btw is Hispanic) profiled Trayvon Martin because he was wearing a hoodie and was seen in a nice neighborhood. He then killed him because he thought he looked like a thug and said 'he wasn't going to let these effing punks get away!'. What's wrong? He took his life away and received no lawful punishment. That's what wrong!

Really? Really? You shouldn't have even asked this question!!! How dare you even point out black people.
It's a huge deal and it has a lot to do with race.
The big deal is Zimmerman pretty much killed Travyon because be was black.
Well that's how black people are seeing it, but white people (most don't take that the wrong way) don't think it's much of a big deal because they pretty much don't give a fuck.
Becuase they see it as a normal murder case.
It means a lot to black people because of slavery. Well that's what I think.
Also Zimm. Shot and killed someone and got away with it. Just like Casey Anothny.
I agree with most people when they say if it was the other way around things would have been way different.
Mike Vick goes to jail for fighting dogs but Zimm. and Casey is free for killing a human.

"How dare you even point out black people." Uh, well, they are kind of a big part of the protests of the case. Like you even said, it had a lot to do with race so of course people of color are the most upset. A good bit of your post is even about black people. .___.

Well you refuse to prove it. It's kind of like a guy saying "I can jump 7 feet" randomly. But ok.

People are just pissed because it shows, quite blatantly, that racism still exists. link - that's why people are angry. The American justice system is based on the words of the whites because they've got more power. For instance, blacks are convicted at a much higher rate than whites or other minorities. As a result, there's no real justice in the justice system. I'm not suggesting all whites in the system are racist, few of them outwardly are, but the racism is still ingrained in American society and minorities are still picked on. That's what pisses people off, including me.

EDIT: And yes, the verdict of not guilty was based on lack of evidence, but try and tell me that the jury and the country wouldn't feel more sympathy for Trayvon and his family if he was white. Try and look at the numbers and tell me non-blacks aren't let off as "not guilty" more than blacks.

EDIT 2: It's also a big deal because Zimmerman called 911 on Trayvon and they told him to stay in his car. Zimmerman got out and shot the kid instead. For that reason he should definitely have been found guilty of murder. Trayvon wasn't a threat to him.

tbh the important part is not his death but the implications for the justice system and racism still existing.

No,but (unfourtunatly) someone dies everyday, and people are putting this case on national TV, and are going out to protest. I want to know what makes this particular murder so special. I didnt ment to offend the guy, black or not. Btw, you say I have horrible grammar, when you do too. Its not like I even wanted to have good grammar, anyway.

Yeah...but theres not enough proof to indicate that it was done out of racism. Its like saying you are racist if u vote for Romney instead of Obama.
