Good bye Florida

Honestly? I sincerely hope that the members of that jury experience what Trayvon's parents are

He may have been found Not Guilty....

How could this be?

Wow...Zimmerman is 'free to go'... eom

There needs to be some serious

Well, looks like it's open season on Young Black Men by future George Zimmermans...

I remember feeling this way in November 2004

Maybe somebody will write a song about Trayvon the way Bob Dylan wrote

George Zimmerman....not someone you want as your neighbor
