simple.
it was dark out. hes no clue what the kid has on him. its not like the kid had a fucking lit up 10ft billboard over his head with a giant arrow pointing to his pockets saying "skittles!!!"
with me walking down east hastings/main street at 2am, even I feel sketched out when a little 130lb junkie walks past me...I don't know if the guys got a knife and willing to stab someone for their wallet just so they can get their fix. I could easily take the guy if he were to attack me, but for that brief 3-4 seconds during the attack, id be having a million things running through my mind and I would do anything to get him off/away from me.
if this case was the other way around, Zimmerman was black, and treyvon was Spanish or whatever it is Zimmerman is, you'd see black people all over America with signs saying "another brotha down" and "free Zimmerman" etc etc. from personal experience what I see, its as if the black community look out for the black community, doesn't matter how wrong they are, in their minds, they're innocent. just like the commercial drive area is an Italian community...they look out for them selves and help each other out....that gentrification bullshit, they're all east van people sticking together trying to get their stupid points out, the old topic of full Asian signs in Richmond, seemed as if 80% of the people who said they didn't care were Asian as it didn't affect them at all.
