George Zimmerman Charged with Murder in the 2nd Degree

I speak of good journalism they didn't just give the facts of what we knew they made their own case and in some cases even doctored evidence to persuade their audience one way. These media companies failed to do good journalism and didn't stick to the facts they just made up the facts as they went. They edited the evidence they presented to their viewership and performed a very vile act in doing so. They made it seem like Zimmerman was a Racist when he was just answering the 911 operators question of what race is the person and he responded "I think black" not a racist statement at all but NBC turned it into being racist by editing it out. We now don't know anything about what really happened because the media lied about the case. That is not censorship that is protecting the rights of a person to being innocent until proven guilty. They ignored the AP Style of journalism which is one of the more respected firms when it comes to reporting because they stick to the facts of the case and tread very carefully around the legal system. I think Zimmerman would be able to sew NBC for libel when they messed with the 911 tapes.

I think all this could have been avoided if Trayvon Martin had just said that he was lost, or was going somewhere without feeling he had to get so hot under the collar with the attitude of "how dare you question me for being in the neighborhood." I did not know about Zimmerman being part Peruvian and part German. I guess the Peruvian part makes it hard to say that this was a racist crime. Good thing that Zimmerman turned himself in. Bad thing that the judge let the media make the decision because she was possibly afraid if she did not charge Zimmerman with second degree murder instead of manslaughter or self-defense, there would be a riot. I will look at the link.

I was one of those who felt justice was not being handled when Zimmerman didn't get arrested.and who is Traynor? I assume you meant Trayvon Martin. See, the thing with me is that call with 911 or the Police that he had and the police told him specifically NOT to follow, yet still for whatever reason, he disregarded this advice, and then called the boy out of his name and everything else. This whole case reminds me of Emmett Till so much, well to some regard and since you may not know of that case, I included a link for your perusal. One more thing, Zimmerman is of German and Peruvian descent. I felt that that was a bit off with the way he was portrayed because I kept saying, come on, tell the darn truth. call the man what the man is. On the day, they put the warrant out for Zimmerman, I put on my Facebook status this statement: If you take a life, that is two lives gone. The one who is killed and never coming back and yours because now, your hunted and/or haunted. We can look at Trayvon Martin and feel no justice is being done. but I KNOW that in God's law, that young man is not at peace. If you got to run, hide after you say that you did something in self defense, and your followers abandon you, that is Gods law at work. plain and simple. Emmett Till- Emmett Till - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sorry I put in the wrong link, disregard that, but en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmett_Till is the right one. the quote above is mine.

I wrote a statement the morning of the announcement of the charges pending against Zimmerman stating that two lives were destroyed and/or taken. Trayvon's, who will never come back, and Zimmerman's, who at the time was haunted/hunted, because he couldn't work, go to school, live his life, nothing. he was reduced to making up a website asking for help in his upcoming defense to which he proclaimed that "the truth" would finally come out when the time came so you tell me, what kind of a life is that? NONE. then your own lawyers you hired, you won't talk to them, so they drop you a good day or two before the state of Florida decides to charge you? Oh, I feel that is God's law at work. In this world, there is a cause and effect no way about things. So ma'am, your right on the lives. On folks feelings towards Zimmerman, well, when you've been denied basic things as African Americans have, when stuff like this come up, you will see a whole lotta angry stuff come to the surface because for so long we have had to swallow it and now it's caught in our throats. just my take. And my thoughts and prayers are to both families and the town because this is such a sad situation.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I'm also sorry you feel as you do about the black community having been denied things, what sort of things? I feel as a human being, the whole human race has gone nuts. There is so much hate in the world. It seems as if, instead of getting closer to God, we've all run the other direction. I see you are the type of person who can empathize, who can reason, because you do understand how the actions of one can effect everyone. You can see how Zimmerman's life is ruined, as well as how Trayvon's life is gone and his family is mourning. You also see how God's law works, I think. My take on this is that we heard about this through the media, and I wonder what the motives are of those who are keeping it in the media. I wonder why the major networks thought it proper to edit the 911 call and leave out the dispacter's asking Zimmerman what race the person was. I wonder why other young people are killed and hurt everyday in our country and the media and community leaders ignore it? It is not taking away from the seriousness of this particular case to wonder these things if you are the sort of person who feels EVERY violent act, every case of racism, every life ruined is important. Is it? This is a sad situation. For our entire country. I think we have been shown that forgiveness and the love of God is what would heal the wounds, the hurt and the despair. I remember MLK's words. It's time we start back in the direction towards God.
