Defense attorneys knew a jury of five white women and one Hispanic woman would find it difficult to identify with the humanity of a Black teenage boy.
When I was a kid in Florida, I remember the old folks used to play Bingo. As far as I could tell, it was purely a game of luck. If they called your number, you simply moved your chip onto the appropriate space on the board.
But what if a player controlled the boards that were distributed or the numbers that were called. That would obviously raise a ruckus, of course, unless it was done in a way that made it seem fair.
That's the sinking feeling I got Monday night when I watched the televised CNN interview with Juror B37, the first juror from the George Zimmerman trial to go public. Watching the inconsistencies in her logic made me remember those Bingo games and how seemingly neutral systems could be constructed in a way to guarantee a particular outcome.
One day when I was young, I discovered my grandmother had rigged a church Bingo game so that her best friend's granddaughter could win a bicycle. Young and naive, I challenged her. "Oh, the white folks do it all the time," she blithely responded. I didn't believe her back then. Then I saw Juror B37.

After listening to all the evidence, half of the jury initially felt Zimmerman was guilty but the other jurors persuaded them to change their minds.

I want to know whom BET will blame when all of this flame fanning ends up killing someone.

Good question.
What does White Entertainment TV say?
It’s already killed some people.
Imagine trying to start such a thing.
Apparently killing has already taken place, from what I’ve read....2 brothers in a southern state...can’t remember, but it was posted here.
It doesn’t matter which “side” she comes down on now. Trial is over.
Trayvon Martin was a teenager from Miami; George Zimmerman is an adult resident of Sanford. It was Zimmerman who was on trial.

Sets off the gaydar.

If America gets lucky, blacks will grow up and realize trials are exercises in law, not identifying with the humanity of this group, that, or some other.
We are dealing with emotional children.
It already has killed several people, two guys were killed because they had a “Free Zimmerman” bumper sticker on their truck.
What do you me when?
