found this yesterday...
Joking about media's portrayal of the event.
I know some of you may not find it funny or may find it offensive for whatever reason, so ill hide it

The way I see it is this -
Zimmerman (a.k.a the wanna be cop) while on his way to the store, see's a BLACK teen wearing a hoodie in his neighbourhood and automatically thinks he's breaking the law or up to no good. For some reason Zimmerman feels the need to go investigate. He stops his car, and gets out and proceeds to ask Martin (who is doing nothing wrong) what he's doing. Martin, like any other teen who is doing nothing wrong would respond with "fvck you!" Zimmerman gets upset and approaches Martin, Zimmerman proceeds to get his ass whipped. He realizes he's picked a fight he can't win and pulls his gun. Self defense? I don't think so. He started the fight / provoked Martin. I think what it comes down to is Zimmerman had the better lawyer so he got off.

The first crime committed is Martin attacking Zimmerman. Zimmerman could drive by and call Martin a no-good thieving horse f*cker, the first crime would still have been Martin physically attacking Zimmerman.
Being followed by someone on a public street does not in any way justify physically attacking them.
Is the hate just because I'm Canadian? I constantly hear you guys talk about your Constitution and the rights and freedoms it gives you. While, I hate to tell you this, but freedom of speech exists pretty well everywhere, including Canada, and unfortunately for you guys I'm allowed to make up my own mind and form my own opinions whether you agree with them or not. 
Ok, Canadian, tell me what law or act gives you the freedom of speech. Also, explain why radio programs are taken off of the air due to CBSC standards because they were disrespectful towards women? That doesn't sound like freedom to me.
