George Zimmerman's brother compares slain teen Martin to baby-killer

[Prince Akeem]

The older brother of George Zimmerman, the man accused of killing Florida teenager Trayvon Martin, posted an image on Twitter comparing the deceased teen to an alleged Ga. baby-killer.

On March 24, Robert Zimmerman, Jr., tweeted an image of Martin alongside one of De'Marquise Kareem Elkins, the 17-year-old accused of fatally shooting one-year-old Antonio Santiago in his stroller on March 21.

Zimmerman's brother George shot and killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in Feb. 2012. He's charged with second-degree murder and has pleaded not guilty, claiming he shot the unarmed teen in self-defense.

Robert Zimmerman sent the tweet multiple times, featuring side-by-side photographs and the words "A picture speaks a thousand words. Any questions?", addressing it to the NAACP, filmmaker Michael Moore, the National Rifle Association, and Anthony Cumia of the Opie and Anthony show, among others.

In one of many subsequent tweets, Zimmerman stated: "1 of those pics is a person who may have murdered @ point-blank range, the other: a person who gave every indication they prob would've."

I really wish he'd shut up. He's not doing his brother any favors.

Edit: "1 of those pics is a person who may have murdered @ point-blank range, the other: a person who gave every indication they prob would've." Robert Zimmerman.

Someone punch this guy.

He is entitled to his freedom of speech, not that I will listen because he doesn't.know what happened.

Dumbass is flowing thru their veins.

Young Black Males are pretty easy targets.

All you gotta do is :
Have marijuana pictures
Sag your jeans
Do an obscene gesture in your instagram/facebook/twitter pictures
Have bad grammar
Like Hip Hop

It then becomes okay to kill you.
Even better they might get some Black people
to believe and sympathize with them when they say
they were protecting themselves from some "Thug".

He must not love his brother.

that was pretty dumb move.

what the fukk does it matter what they looked like.

 

[Handsback]

His brother killed an unarmed child, but now demonizes that victim. I guess we can blame that baby that got shot too. Bet if you upped a pic of Trayvon as a baby they'd look pretty similar. Who knows what kind of fukkery that baby would have eventually caused.

the irony of comparing a baby killer to his brother's victim...who was someone's baby is palpable.
