http://www.AP-5.com Some people have said that the Trayvon Martin case involved foul play when a "racist White Hispanic" gunned down and innocent teenager named Trayvon Martin. The black teen was wearing a hoodie. Others believe that media hype has been purposefully pushing for a race war by editing audio and video files, enhancing and manipulating photos, etc., to make George Zimmerman seem more guilty. Zimmerman now faces second degree murder charges and the case has sparked controversy throughout the country. Mike Tyson has called for Zimmerman to be shot. Spike Lee tweeted a wrong address to to Zimmerman's home and the Black Panthers have called for Zimmerman's capture -- before he was taken into custody. Al Sharpton has called for more action.
Although the mainstream media, (MSNBC, ABC, Fox, CNN, CBS, and others) have widely reported George Zimmerman as being White or "White Hispanic," the reported story clearly attempts to inflame racial tensions between Black and White more often than not. No matter what story one believes, the facts of any serious incident should always be thoroughly examined outside of the news reports, which may come as a result of either bad journalism or false witness reports that are assumed as facts and the sensationalized to sell a story.
Some have pointed the finger at Treyvon by saying that he was a drug user and thug who actually was the aggressor who jumped Zimmerman and then began to beat him on the sidewalk. The court of public opinion has been more extreme than even the OJ Simpson case due to the racial issues that have been spread and the use of the Internet to further fan the flames.
President Obama made a statement that if he "...had a son, he would look like Trayvon."
Did the police handle the case properly?
