I really like, and I hope it does not go unnoticed, but rather helps to bring justice to that poor kids' family.

I like it, a very classy yet still awarness-raising way to bring this case to light.

Looks good to the public, so it's a nice media move, but that's about it, let's be honest.

Nice, but I still don't feel like that watch who shot the kid deserves all the hate. Obviously what he did was wrong, but it was mistake. They are human just like us, and therefore they make mistakes as well.

Are you forgetting that he killed an innocent teenager? That goes way over the "forgivable mistake" line. When you shoot to kill another person you better be damn sure that either you are in immediate danger or someone close to you is in immediate danger. There is no other excuse.

I'm not saying it is forgiveable, but there is no need for public outrage. It won't benefit anything. I support what the Heat did, but there are others who are crying out, even though there is no point in. Yes I know he killed an innocent. But it happens, nothing we can do about it now. I'm not saying his actions were excusable, I'm saying there is no need of all this public anger. Like the guy doesn't know what he did was horrible, why do you have to rub it in his face? He will be fired, probably go to jail, and will never do what he did again.

I never said he should be forgiven.

There is no doubt in my mind that this was a hate crime. I heard the 911 calls, and you can clearly hear Zimmerman call Trayvon a racial slur. The dispatcher on the line also clearly tells Zimmerman to stop following Trayvon. Just really depressing stuff. I hope they arrest Zimmerman and I hope he goes to prison.

If that is true, then I retract my statements.
