The Zimmerman Case

I know everyone has heard the verdict of Trayvon Martin case and how Zimmerman was found not guilty. What annoyed me most about the case not only the fact that he was found not guilty but the fact that social media has begin to tarnish the image of a Child that is dead. Saying he was gang affiliated and only picking the bad. It is sickening imagine all other cases of people who have been murdered who may have had bad past but everyone looked at them as victims not people who deserved it. People are so inhumane and would be the first one to tarnish someone else's image but when it comes to stating the fact they cannot do that no one ever talked about Zimmerman's life story he has all of the sudden become a hero for killing an African American. Now I heard that one of jurors is trying to write a book who uses someone's pain to make money. First of all the person was not there and would not have the knowledge to tell any story. And to all saying that Zimmerman will be killed is not reasonable only God can decide someone fate and we cannot decide someones fate. Zimmerman will leave a free man but will continue to be the most hated man in the US sad to say. It is not the only fact that Trayvon Martin was a black boy and was killed it is fact that this just flashes so much of what we have fought to end in history and to think in the year of 2013 we are still been prosecuted. Be Black in the America it is sad to say that one day I will go out in the world and achieve something and I will not have save rights as someone else. I love that so many are continuing to fight because if we continue to stand and watch this will continue to happen. Things will never change until we make a change.

This is just what has been on my mind.
