Mike Tyson on Trayvon Martin case: ‘It’s a disgrace [George Zimmerman] hasn’t been shot yet’
Yahoo! News ^ | April 11, 2012 | Dylan Stableford

Mike Tyson thinks that George Zimmerman deserves violent retribution for the shooting of Trayvon Martin.

In an interview with Yahoo News about his upcoming one-man show in Las Vegas, the former heavyweight champion sounded off on the polarizing case:

"My personal feeling is that, as a young kid that was beat on by a bully, that was pretty much singled out—the guy [Zimmerman] stalked him, didn't follow instructions from a superior officer, when they said, "Stop following the kid." That tells you everything right there. But my all-around perspective, I wasn't there, I don't know what happened. But it's just so widespread and overt what happened. Even though this is the best country in the world, certain laws in this country are a disgrace to a nation of savages. It's a majority versus a minority. That's the way God planned it. He didn't want to do something about it, He wanted us to do something about it.

it sure would be nice if those form NY and Chicago and others around the country would get the facts, understand the constitution and more importantly understand our laws in FL.

People like Tyson have no clue what laws we have, what a constitution is and down here we have had a press conference shown on the local channels and the MSM found one long time resident saying Zimmermann should be charged and let his town move on.

Course he then went into a tirade about people carrying guns, and how stupid it was to allow people to have guns.

Now I’m guessing that the local channel who found this guy probably asked about 20 people and then just decided to show him on TV .
Maybe if the MSM and this local fool had took the time to read laws and the 2nd amendment then he will know why people carry guns or why we have them.

In the meantime the black panthers have not been charged, the MSM are still on a witch hunt, Sharpton and other race baiting pimps are out in force and no doubt the mother is wanting Zimmermann to be found guilty and then do a civil suit..

Now how many blacks have been shot today and last night around this country by other blacks and who have illegal guns?

mmmmmmm weird how we don’t hear any of that and where is the Hispanic groups? Have they had their orders to stand down from the white house and the DOJ?

God Bless you, we are not home in this world..but your child is home and waiting to see you..when violence or death occurs in the family there are no words of consolation a human being can render that will suffice, But KNOW, the good Lord sees all, knows all and has a plan for you and your child..

Blessings in Christ!!!

Except George Foreman made a billion dollars marketing products after leaving boxing, whereas Tyson is a broke d**k m*****-f***** in the argot of the hood.

Maybe if he had bitten off Trayvon’s ear...

I nominate that for the snakiest, most in your face post I've seen in a long while.

Well done, a hat tip to you sir/ma'am.

Good to see that all 55 of this wife beating rapist’s IQ points have weighed in on this.

If Mike has an IQ of 60, I’d be quite surprised! He’s a violent idiot.

Another race baiter heard from. I stopped listening to anything that rapist had to say a long time ago.

I see your point, but I believe what I have said, the only answer is God’s reality and ours is falling fast..

I will vote and do the things a citizen should to get that slime bag out, but honestly, there are no candidates who have the sack to end our debt this year, start selling off washington dc to pay it off, (they spent it, they pay it), then take away their rights to raise funds at all, all states should have a balanced budget amendment, broke states go broke, no bailout, the federal “G” only gets money for specific projects if the states have extra after the years budget has been proven...otherwise the federal “gangsta” will rape the people until we are dead..

I wonder what Mike’s thoughts are on the disputes between Thomas Paine and Edmund Burke on hereditary entitlements.

So, Mikey is calling for the assassination of an Hispanic dude. Racist much?

Imho, Tyson is a sociopathic moron. I’ll wait to see the video of this “interview” before I believe this is an unaltered quote.
