Actually, the 911 operator did not specifically give orders to Zimmerman not to follow. Her instruction was not that clear. She should have said explicity: SIR DO NOT FOLLOW. But she didn’t. I think she said something like, “we don’t need you to follow him.” That is not a clear statement or instruction. It’s waffle-y.

How lucky for Obama and the left that they get to revisit race-relations and civil-rights history all summer long.

Or is it unlucky? Because most people in this country are not racist nor do they accept the premise that they are. And really, with gas prices, economy, inflation ... well, to quote Carville ~ It’s the economy, stupid!

Also, I’ve heard the TV-talkers already setting the stage for ‘black children cannot walk freely without fear of making people afraid.’ Ask Bill Cosby - whose fault is that? But frankly, if I were walking alone on a street and any young male was walking behind me, white, black, asian, hispanic - I would be concerned for my safety. Young hoodlums come in all colors and shapes.

I don’t think race had anything to do with this.

And I hope sensible minds in the media stop this witch hunt now. Zimmerman may be guilty of being over-vigilant and maybe looking for a fight. But race is not the reason.

I feel very sorry for the young mans family. They are being preyed upon by the minions of the left and the media. Can’t pass up this opportunity for this summers blockbuster trial.

Whipping the public into a frenzy is a media specialty.

That’s a good question. According to his girlfriend, who he was on the phone with, he knew he was being followed...
