Exactly, and people want to say that his injuries were not all that damaging. Well, it appears that he stopped the altercation before the injuries went any further. That is his right to self-defense.
Really, what makes me so incensed about this whole issue, is the lynching being done to George Zimmerman's life - all the while - the mantra of honoring and preserving Travyon Martin's "Legacy" goes on.
Travyvon Martin is a classic example of what is wrong in the black community and why they are suspect in terms of crime. He was a punk and a thug. That is his legacy.
And I believe it is a high crime and travesty that the Prosecution (withholding evidence during Discovery), Trayvon's parents, the media and this Administration have gone to such great lengths to hide that evidence.
My second and underlying anger is the fact that Obama ran his campaign on a "no voucher" pledge. That was a huge red flag to me and I commented on that subject on this very forum when we were debating his candidacy in the first place.
Having no educational freedom when we, as Americans, are footing the bill is a travesty. I don't believe it is really a race issue, but a class issue - keep the poor, poorer - that encompasses everyone of color - red, yellow, black, brown, white and purple polka dots - Uncle Sam's Plantation.
Education is power. When that is taken away, you can only have Sheeple. Uneducated people like Rachel Jeantel, who is not really all to blame for her illiteracy, should strike up the band and yell - Let My People GO! But, I doubt we would get that from her. She claimed that the "jury" were "old school" - “None offense to the jury, they old. That’s old school people. We in the new school, our generation, my generation.”
Clearly a sad day for America.
