Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI was trying to remember which movie had a character that reminded me of Zimmerman
and the kind of things he was saying to the cops as he watched Trayvon. Finally figured it out and this guy in the clip is Zimmerman's mirror image. Instantly thinking Trayvon was guilty because of his prejudice views. "Fucking Punks" and "These ass holes, they always get away" Maybe some day they can make a movie called 'One Angry Killer'?
I would also like to point out that the point at the end about reasonable doubt is also very important but the things people say when unguarded show who a person is deep down.

As a country, we still haven't learned what we need to from that lesson...
