George Zimmerman, Your Friendly Neighborhood Watchman.

NOT GUILTY

Zimmerman, stoically sitting in court, awaiting the verdict from jurors.

I Understand that many people are upset with the not guilty verdict that was decided by jurors, July 13, 2013, however, I have to ask you to ask yourselves, did the prosecution really prove without a reasonable doubt that George Zimmerman killed Trayvon Martin in cold blood, or was he truly defending himself.

Pictures of Zimmerman's face and head, taken after his altercation with Trayvon Martin.

 I am not going to spend time going over the details of the case, as they are readily available on virtually every major and minor news website. However, I will address the emotional aspect from the angle of a true, straight shooting, media and communications professional and as a proud African American.

This type of situation in common in America. Literally, an African American is killed everyday by another African American and the news does not report it. Sad, I know, but that is because it is all too common. As an African American, I take more of an outrage against my people killing themselves versus someone from another race killing us. In fact, I would rather a thousand George Zimmerman styled murders versus, the all to common type that take place in New Orleans, Chicago, and Detroit.

Social media propaganda. A picture of Dr. Martin Luther King, dressed in a hooded sweatshirt similar to Trayvon Martin. What did Dr. King have to do with this case and why was his image used?

I am already aware that I will receive a lot of backlash for my point of view, however I must ask people to truly ask themselves, which one is worse. Which option is the lesser of two evils.

The response from African Americans in light of the Not Guilty verdict are embarrassing and it makes me sick. Even those who I assumed were the most educated of the race have fallen short with their emotional response to Zimmerman's trial. 

Why do we feel as if Justice has failed us as African Americans? Originally, Sanford police were not going to press charges, so the fact that this case ever made it to court is TECHNICALLY a victory, within itself. Why do we not appreciate that small step. Why as African American do we feel inclined that people (America) owes us something because of our skin color. America owes us nothing, except for a large income tax return every year if you have not adjusted your withholding accordingly.

THE TRIAL

George Zimmerman's defense team did a stupendous job in defending their client. The prosecution... not so much. This case was not a case to determine if George Zimmerman was guilty of killing Trayvon, he had already admitted to that. This case was about proving if whether or not Zimmerman did it out of cold blood. 

Trayvon Martin lies dead, after altercation with neighborhood watchman, George Zimmerman.

 Well here is the thing that people are going to have to get through their heads in order to get on with their lives The state was unable to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Mr. Zimmerman committed second-degree murder or manslaughter, as defined in Florida. 

What Zimmerman did is legal in Florida, point, blank period. CNN, HLN, MSNBC, FOX and all other media outlets are very much aware of this, however, they are going to continue to spin the story to attract ratings and more advertising revenue.

I need for people of all races to understand, that this case is not a race case, please do not make it into one. if anyone really and truly wants to make sure that something like this never happens again, then, actions need to be addressed to the state of Florida. Boycott Florida, do not go to their beaches, do not purchase anything in the state that may benefit its economy, move away from the state, boycott their university's the point is to hit them where it hurts!! Buying Skittles, Arizona Ice Tea, hooded sweatshirts, signs, markers, and other things to pointlessly protest only expand the pockets of the companies that make those products. How is that concept not understood. 

After, carefully going over all of the evidence and watching the trial from start to finish, I can conclude that TECHNICALLY Zimmerman is not guilty and his killing of Trayvon was justified. Why do you ask? Because he felt that his life was in danger and he did what he felt he had to do in order to put an end to the confrontation. Now, I am in know way shape or form defending Zimmerman, I only ask that people, simply analyze the technicalities of such a delicate trial. 

Zimmerman's life will never be the same. Is that not enough? America is breaking its unity over one trial, is it truly worth it? Please people, I beg of for us all to get on with our lives and simply try to improve as a species. Continue to evolve, help those out who are less fortunate and continue to make a better life for our children as we always want better for them then what he have had.

Lastly, I need all of you to ask yourself, as the media continues to push this trial down your throat, what is it that you are not seeing? What happened to the Boston Bombing stories? What happened to the NSA and Snowden? What happened to North Korea launching test nukes? Why are major countries like Brazil, Egypt and Turkey, protesting and dying in the streets? What executive orders are the government signing over that continue to violate your rights, without you having a clue. Ladies and gentleman, please do not be fooled by the propaganda that the media inflates to keep you distracted from things that truly matter in your life. It is happening and you will feel it in years to come. MARTIAL LAW and RFID technology is inevitable and it will happen. In order for such actions to happen, a country must be distracted, disarmed and divided. The three D's that I have learned while working for the military. Ask yourself, are the three D's being implemented right now?? 

How quickly we forget.
