Now That the Damage is Done, the Bias Has Been Established, and the Narrative Set...
...ABC is now coming out with some facts about the case that they tried to ignore or deny originally. As you watch the video, you will see the small statured George Zimmerman looking very Hispanic as he appears before the judge. The way the media originally painted the situation was this large racial slur uttering 'white guy' attacked and shot a small black youth with skittles in one hand and an iced tea in the other. Now many of the original suppositions have been proven to be false. If You click on the link here, you will see evidence photos of Zimmerman's head directly after the shooting. Did the youth throw the skittles and the ice tea in the air as he pounded Zimmerman's head off the sidewalk? What the media is avoiding in the discussion, is that if you bang someones head off a concrete sidewalk, you can kill them by doing this which could constitute attempted murder. In the end, it is very sad that this young man had to die, but it is also sad that the media time and time again try to steer and create the story instead of just reporting the story. As Gun Shy stated earlier, if there is evidence to convict Zimmerman, then he should do the time for the crime, but if there is not, then the politicians need to quit letting the tail wag the justice dog. Just because there are threats of violence if groups don't get what they want this should not be allowed to influence the facts.

Do you know if the police ever said if tea and skittles were really found on the kid? Did they do a toxicology?
If you look up "skittles" in the urban dictionary, it's slang for a mess of pills of all different colors and sizes. And "tea" has been slang for pot since I was a teenager, back when the Lone Ranger (in black and white!) was TV entertainment.
Didn't you post a link to the story that there wasn't a convenient store within a few miles walk, when you really map out the area?
