If Zimmerman gets off its gonna be open season on young black men in America...

[J-Fire]

if Trayvon was in "the hood" and had on certain clothing would he not have faced a similar situation at the hands of blacks and latinos? hell maybe being a strange black man in a hood in which he was never seen before have cause people to questions him as well?

As a black man I know being in the wrong neighborhood could get you in a situation if no-one knows you....or you too fly in a broke neighborhood since I was in middle school.



I don't know the make-up of the community Trayvon was walking through....lets say it was all white or what-have-you. Shouldn't the same rules of survival have been in play as don't wear/do certain things in a white neighborhood as you have rules for being in a strange hood.


Not excusing zimmerman and not excusing random killings in the hood. But much like you can't floss hard in the hood....you can't do whateva you want in these white neighborhoods and think it's okay.

He was walking home from the store not bothering anybody or anything

same thing happens in the hood

you mean if i got a red flag hanging out my pocket I might not get questions walking through certain neighborhoods and get into a situation even if i'm not bothering anyone.


If i'm flossing some chains in a neighborhood I have no connection to i'm not gonna get messed with and possibly have the same fate as trayvon even though i'm minding my own business?



people take precautions walking through the hood....should the same not be taken walking through an all white burbs in a hoodie with ya head covered? You can't even go into some stores like that....Liquor stores be having rules for no hoods in stores because you can't be seen on camera and it's looks suspicious and that's in the all minority neighborhoods around my way.

disgusting you trying to justify that situation.

Ive been negged a couple of times for saying this but it needs to be said...its like everyone is ignoring the reality that at the end of the day, a black man or women is more likely to die at the hand of our own kind in a murder/homicide case then at the hands of the white man

You can say the exact same about cacs or any other race for that matter.

disgusting you trying to justify that situation.

what am i justifying? I didn't justify killing anyone.




You take precaution in the hood cause you know things can happen to you even if it is against the law. You don't go down the street with a bandanna of a certain color hanging out ya pocket even if it's fashionable.

you don't go flossing in the hood and especially one you don't know cause you know what will happen even if it's illegal. You gotta come up off of that even if you minding ya own business!

I see n!ggas take precautions dealing with black people all the damn time!!!!



what precautions where taking walking through this white neighborhood? why wouldn't decorum apply outside of the hood? Plenty of people in the hood mind their own business....and plenty of people avoid certain things not to be caught up in situations especially if they don't associate in that neighborhood.

"In the hood"

Not where this event occurred.

The fact that you could even bring up the hood where the same white man put minorities in the first place to justify anything is laughable.

Your blaming the victim for not being cautions in a situation that did not call for it.

how many white people are really popping off like Zimmerman? black teens should be getting shots by rich whites in every gentrified city in america....but that ain't happening. Maybe in redneck america....but it's rare to find a white person taking a Zimmerman stance in any major city.

Are you saying that black teen should be getting shot by rich whites?

Are you saying that any black teen going through a white neighborhood with a hoodie on is justified in getting shot?

So if a innocent black male goes through a white neighborhood he should be shot?

I see no reason for trayvon to get shot for walking through a neighborhood with a hoodie on.

walking through an unfamiliar predominately white neighborhood where no-one knows you with ya head covered is not gonna lead to a possible problem and draw attention now? Please.






Like i said....if you got a bandanna hanging out ya pocket you gonna catch some flack for not being "street smart" and parents gonna warn their kids about dressing a certain way, correct? flag out ya pocket gonna get ya mistaken for a gangsta and into a bad situation even though you minding your own business and not involved in such activities. Hell, Schools ban certain sports jerseys as it can be gang affiliated and could get innocent kids killed as people are mistaken for something they are not about.


how about being "suburban smart"? much like the hood....if a black teen does something or dress a certain way in the white burbs you can be mistaken for a thug even if you don't involve yourself in such activities.






not saying he should have been killed or blaming him. But n!ggas take precautions in the hood not to be a stat...and you have to take them in the white burbs as well.

obvi you misread my post.

you saying only reason blacks get killed by mostly blacks is cause they in the hood....and would be killed more often at the hands of whites if they didn't live in the hood.

i disagree. how many white people in any city america would pop off like Zimmerman? that's some redneck behavior and blacks would be safer in that rich white neighborhood compared to the hood.

He was wearing a hoodie.

Not a mask, not a bandana but a hoodie.

So blacks can't wear hoodies now? Blacks can't wear hats now?

If only you know how rediculous you sound.

This is classic victim blaming. Also what proof do you have that Travon knew that wearing a hood would considered being suspicious?

Like i said you are disgusting and looks like your trying to justify his murder by comparing it to a situation that has nothing to do with the case.

So Black men have to appear docile and non threatening to in white neighborhoods now?

I'm saying that your blacks get killed by blacks line only happens "in the hood" so saying that it apolies in the suburbs where blacks don't be killing blacks is stupid because that isn't the hood.
