Fundamentally, the author misunderstands the meaning of justice, as well as the reason for the proceedings.

The crime regards the taking of a human life. The charges are between the State and Zimmerman, not Trayvon. This is why the person accused is charged by the State. Even had Zimmerman been found guilty, the charges do not deal with justice for Trayvon. That is separate issue.

Justice is an abstract thing, and abstract things are beyond the grasp of the author, who apparently can see only his own (racial) group.

In my general neighborhood, there are "Justice for Aya" posters seeking a reward for the killer of a 22-year old, Aya Nakano, who was gunned down on 6/13/2013. No suspects have yet been arrested.

This is a quiet campaign which so far has not yielded any fruit. The family of Mr. Nakano seeks justice for his death. I am sure that BO and his friends neither know nor care about the death of this young man.
