The “system” was never meant for protecting blacks. Got all the proof he went looking for Trayvon. Again it never fails another piece of turd walks not guilty. If we went killing whites just for the hell of it a total different outcome.in my eyes whites will never understand what minorities go through. Payback a bitch for Zimmerman. I hope to read about it in the paper.
