Zimmerman wasn't even white. You can argue that situation was about discrimination, but he wasn't a white dude.

Chief Brown, "He expressed anger for Black Lives Matter. None of that makes sense."

Aw shite Brown...

I know this, you know this, apparently some do not. All large police departments as well as federal agencies have personnel trained in the use of explosive ordnance. Most of the time their job entails the disposal/disarming of explosive devices. In this instance it looks like they used their knowledge to deliver a small explosive charge to end an active shooter situation.

If DPD decided that killing this guy with an explosive device in order to protect the lives of it's officers then I don't have any issue with that.

It's sad anyone still defends Zimmerman at this point, but whatever.

You people really don't know how to be objective and look at each case individually. You love to just lump them all together.

Zimmerman has a long list of arrogance and bullying. He once got in a fight with an undercover cop. His daddy judge got him off that. The arrogance continues. His own family members, his cousin, has accused him of rape (before this), during his arrest he had his own girlfriend at the time straight up lie on their behalf about their money,(yet people are so quick to take his side of the story as truth), since his trial, he has then punched his own girlfriend's elder father, he has threatened the both of them with his gun around.. the same gf who stood by him and lied for him.. he has had numerous encounters of road rage.. with people yet again claiming he was waving his gun around.. bullying people.. he has taken to social media to boast about the dead body.. and he gets off for "self-defense" i'm sorry but that's not something you should brag about if that was the case.

zimmerman was always the aggressor, he ignored the advise of operators to not pursue.. then he clearly states "he was tired of them always getting away with it" zimmerman has always lived behind his precious gun, because he is too much of a pussy otherwise.

so he goes after this kid late at night.. a kid who was walking home by himself, talking on a cell phone to a girl, and bringing his younger brother candy he just bought from the store.. and yall continue to take up for this absolute piece of shite.. i put myself, as a white male, in the place of martin.. i walked home by myself late at night at age 17.. and if a suspicious man was trailing me for no reason.. and HE IS A CARRYING A gun.. i am absolutely going to be nervous and in fear of my own life. this guy was not an authority, he was a self-appointed neighborhood watch guy, who had an agenda.. clearly. so he pursues this young man who has no idea why an older man is tailing him with a gun.. and yet you people take george zimmerman's side without even putting yourself in the shoes of a young man alone walking home at night.

you people are quick to assume martin deserved it, because you were so upset the media made martin look younger.. you people label martin a thug for smoking and having silly pictures of hand gestures.. so he deserved to die.. you know how many teenagers smoke weed and throw up silly hand signs in pictures? kids do stupid stuff. he didn't deserve to die.. so zimmerman pursues this guy.. the kid is probably in fear for his life.. words exchange (who knows what was said) and a fight ensues.. all because zimmerman couldn't mind his own business.. the kid was not breaking into any houses. he was on the phone with a girl walking home. period.. a fight ensues.. and zimmerman getting his arse beat for something he started.. he resorts to taking the pussy way out, he couldn't handle his beating, and yall don't even know if it was a justified beating, and he murders the young man.. because he's a coward and an arrogant pos.. he's the actual one with the violent background.. but yall want to make this a race issue.. this is a right or wrong issue.. even if martin had went for this guy's gun.. which many of you believe.. how do you not know martin wasn't defending himself from some strange a-hole with a gun! the same a-hole who has constantly threatened others with his gun. think about that people. seriously. use your fricking head. how is it he isn't defending himself from the actual strange man pursuing him with a weapon and an agenda?

any ways, zimmerman is about as big of a piece of shite as there is. i am all for self defense, but that situation was not self defense.. and none of it ever had to be. yall took up for the wrong a-hole because you rather get mad at the media or make it a race deal because black people stood up to it.. instead of just putting yourself in the shoes of a 17 year old and regardless of race.. and even if martin got offended and was cocky.. he didn't deserve this man to kill him. it's a wonder someone hasn't killed zimmerman yet.

instead of these certain black people that advocate violence back at the police and innocent people, why don't some of these crazies actually go after the very people they feel gave them the injustice.. not innocent people. they want to target people. if they want to go eye for an eye, why pick of people who have nothing to do with the situation.. i don't advise violence, but if this is their solution.. they why don't they take it to the idiots who have wronged them..

going after police, because one cop was either incompetent or possibly racist.. is no different than someone hating an entire race on the behalf of an idiot or so.. it's wrong.

I think his mindset (the POS) was that BLM wasn't doing enough, so he was upset with them. Which is why he did this.




I need some clarification. I'm not sure whether he was upset About BLM, which the chief said. or because of the BLM movement, which I assume he meant.

Fox is straight running with the idea that he was a BLM supporter.

So it's okay for whites to kill blacks when they feel threatened, but not okay for blacks to defend themselves when they feel threatened by whites?

How fricking stupid and racist are you?

He was killed by the bomb, but yes, he was quoted as saying he was upset with the police shootings in Baton Rouge and Minnesota and stated he wanted to kill white cops. At least that's what the today show released.

Dallas fire also has a lot of top notch equipment. I imagine they are working together on this. I agree and and all for this type of response from our first responders.

ETA: But like golfer said, there's a ton of help at that time anyway.

By definition, it's non-violent, right?


Problem is it incites violence on both sides. Peaceful protest to get point across is one thing. Hate filled chants do not benefit anyone. Now let me say, I don't support censorship of hate filled speech. I am against allowing large numbers of people shutting down cities based on a false narritive. I'm not saying they shouldn't be allowed to, but I don't have to like it
