If he was going to roam around in the dark looking for the bogey man sooner or later this was going to happen.
Also, am I the only one who thinks Zimmerman looks creepy? If he was following me I would be very very nervous. On the other hand, if Martin had been following me I would have been equally nervous.
I have to say this, at the risk of being attacked, if you are the mother of a young man who is not lily white (which is a major strike against him in this country) would you let your young man out of your home dressed like a thug in a "B" movie? I raised two white sons and they had to pass inspection before they went to school - "
No you cannot wear jeans with holes in them to school."
Has anyone on this site read the various accounts of how Chris Rock, Martin Luther King Jr., Colin Powell etc. etc. etc. were raised? Chris Rock has one of the funniest pieces about his Mother sending him to school every day dressed in a white shirt and dark pants. First impressions do count and your life may depend upon it.
