How really, really stupid is that?
If a person of color commits a crime against you requiring you to defend yourself, and if they get the worse end of the deal, and you are a lighter shade than them, well...then it will be assumed that you were involved because they were a darker person... How really, really stupid is THAT?
And if the law can plainly see that you did noting wrong you will still get dragged through a public trial... and even after your life is ruined... when you are finally acquitted... There will still be people to say that you are a murderer... how really, really... oh never mind.

For me, this crime was NEVER about race, and I really don't think it was for GZ either.
But the fact remains, a young man is dead and the older man with the gun shot him.
In my opinion, yes, I think GZ got away with murder.
I like you a lot, and though we don't agree on some things, I like your attitude and spirit.
I'm sorry if you feel my view on this issue is stupid...
