Racism…. It’s Not Always What You Think, Even When It’s There.
I have argued with many of my liberal friends that George Zimmerman was not a racist. I stand by that opinion.
That said…. I think he should have gotten a guilty verdict, because in my opinion, when Zimmerman stepped out of the truck to pursue Martin, the “stand your ground” law became moot. But I was not on the jury.
I was also not on this jury. I can almost excuse the Zimmerman verdict.
But there is no way to explain this one.
This, my friends is what institutional racism looks like.
