Treyvon Martin should not have died.
George Zimmerman will be looking over his shoulder the rest of his life.
My Dad always said, "Nothing good happens after dark." I believe that too.
Although it is our right to be out, it's just not safe....for anyone!
I don't think Treyvon had any bad intentions when he walked home through that neighborhood that night.
I also don't think George intended to kill anyone.
Treyvon shouldn't have been wearing a black hoodie pulled up, that hid his identity.
George shouldn't have gotten out of his car after he called 911 and they told him to stand down.
Neither of them should have confronted the other, nor thrown punches.
Yes, there is racism in the U.S.....toward all races.
Yes, there is racial profiling....toward all races.
The United States has come a long way....but still has a lot to work on....for all races.
We all need to watch our own motives, stop blaming others for our lot in life and treat everyone with respect.
