Generally speaking, even when killing a person entirely by accident, there is some substantive accountability. With George Zimmerman there was none, even when it was clear that one way or the other he was an antagonist. He was not an innocent by-stander surprisingly accosted by Trayvon, he instigated the scenario. Even if Trayvon WAS beating that dudes ass, and ass whooping is NEVER a CAPITAL OFFENSE meriting summary execution in the streets.
The tragedy is not merely that Trayvon was killed, the tragedy here is that many of us here in American already well knew that Zimmerman would walk, because the lives of young black men haven't been of any value to America since their monetary value was negated by the 13th amendment
