[QUOTE=Bazsil;43762022]lol what are you even doing?[/QUOTE] It's retarded to say someone shouldn't be "getting involved" in something that was an open invitation I conveyed that point in a stupid way because zimmerman threads tend to piss me off and I don't think straight
[QUOTE=Venezuelan;43762242]It's retarded to say someone shouldn't be "getting involved" in something that was an open invitation I conveyed that point in a stupid way because zimmerman threads tend to piss me off and I don't think straight[/QUOTE] The Game COULD be a good opponent. DMX would be horrible. One of the BIGGEST "rules" of amateur boxing is to NEVER put somebody in the ring that is out for revenge or vengeance. Fighting for a cause is great. Looks like the game and zim both have one. I just hope the game doesn't go overboard and start looking for "justice", because that's when people start breaking rules and how boxing matches go from a good match to one that sucks.
Isn't Zimmerman a Peruvian? I remember hearing somewhere he was.

I don't like Zimmerman's chances.
After what DMX said I want to see him get fucking owned in the arena.

[QUOTE=Rangergxi;43764757]All of the race baiting is what keeps this whole thing going.[/QUOTE] B-B-BUT HE CHASED DOWN TRAYVON BECAUSE OF HIS WHITE SUPREMACY! THAT'S WHAT CNN TOLD ME!
[QUOTE=Venezuelan;43764840]The only time zimmerman's race mattered was that super dumb short lived argument that "he can't be racist because he's not 100% white"[/QUOTE] Well it's also somewhat relevant as several of the people who're calling him racist continue to claim he is "100% white".
[QUOTE=Venezuelan;43764840]The only time zimmerman's race mattered was that super dumb short lived argument that "he can't be racist because he's not 100% white"[/QUOTE] They photoshopped him to look white. It was clear what they were trying to do. [editline]2nd February 2014[/editline] not that his race actually matters at all, despite what some people would want you to believe.

[/QUOTE] when was this and who is "they" [editline]3rd February 2014[/editline] found it [t]http://i.imgur.com/Pykig.jpg[/t] that's literally just the effect of fixing the levels in Photoshop, it's removing the big orange-tinged light present throughout the picture (notice how even his eyes are orange, which is obviously not how eyes should look regardless of how Hispanic you are). If anything it's a more accurate picture. The reason he looks so white is the lighting of the original photo is super bright, it was just orange before. Take the original mugshot, fire up Photoshop, go to levels and hit "auto", you get the exact same effect.

i agree with sigmalambda re: it would be much better just to let psycho zimmerman fade into obscurity than to continue stroking his hero complex but i still wanna see him get his ass kicked [editline]3rd February 2014[/editline] would be even better if it was a UFC fight for charity
[QUOTE=Venezuelan;43764840]The only time zimmerman's race mattered was that super dumb short lived argument that "he can't be racist because he's not 100% white"[/QUOTE] News outlets pushed that he was white to piss off blacks and whites to get ratings. Racists are an easy and large audience.
[QUOTE=Rangergxi;43765556]News outlets pushed that he was white to piss off blacks and whites to get ratings.

[editline]3rd February 2014[/editline] or the other media response which was to paint trayvon as some sort of 'thug' because he had some grills and sold weed had nothing to do with him being black then alright again
[QUOTE=Lachz0r;43765687] or the other media response which was to paint trayvon as some sort of 'thug' because he had some grills and sold weed had nothing to do with him being black then alright again[/QUOTE] He also painted as a pure "child" who never do anything wrong.

[QUOTE=Rangergxi;43765712]He also painted as a pure "child" who never do anything wrong.[/QUOTE] so what? it's not like selling weed is grounds for execution. we don't shoot kids for being suspended [editline]3rd February 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Zukriuchen;43765727]he's not acting like it didn't affect that, in fact he didn't even touch that subject. his point is that "half hispanic man shoots black kid" wouldn't sell as much, so the media tried not to mention that [editline]3rd February 2014[/editline] and most of the media didn't paint him as a thug, especially with the way they used older pics of him and all that[/QUOTE] it was half and half i reckon. right wing media wanted to paint zimmerman as a hero left wing media wanted to paint trayvon as a hero. i'll admit both are pretty fucked and sensationalist, but the difference is, one of them was killed by a psycho with a hero complex
I'm calling it now that some crazy in the crowd shoots zimmerman at the match

Zimmerman was found innocent in the eyes of the law, if you have sure enough proof that makes it seem otherwise, to this degree. Why did you not contact the police?
[QUOTE=Rangergxi;43765712]He also painted as a pure "child" who never do anything wrong.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=katbug;43764884]B-B-BUT HE CHASED DOWN TRAYVON BECAUSE OF HIS WHITE SUPREMACY! THAT'S WHAT CNN TOLD ME![/QUOTE] You're both exaggerating (ie lying flat out) and it ruins any point you might have about media bias when it's so obvious. [QUOTE=Lachz0r;43765687]you can be white and a hispanic. if you're going to act like his appearance didn't factor into how pathetic the police response was to a man shooting a teen then alright whatever.[/QUOTE] The police responded exactly how they were supposed to respond. They found no evidence that Zimmerman had done anything illegal and his statement of events was corroborated by evidence and witnesses. The fact that the trial acquitted him through lack of evidence should have vindicated the cops in this case. [editline]2nd February 2014[/editline] re: the media The only two outlets I can find that did anything noteworthy was MSNBC doctoring the 911 call (really bad) and ABC releasing a photo where Zimmerman's injuries seemed less severe. This hardly accounts for "the media" as people want to throw everything under an umbrella. As for race, he was considered white until more information was released and then described as "white Hispanic", which is a thing. Don't listen to right wing knee-jerks who think it's a conspiracy. Allegations of photoshop and the media not being fair because they didn't portray Martin as a violent drug dealer/user are absurd.
[QUOTE=Raidyr;43766374]You're both exaggerating (ie lying flat out) and it ruins any point you might have about media bias when it's so obvious. [/QUOTE] They made trayvon seem like a little damn kid. They used pictures from when he was like eight and drove home the point that "Omg he was armed with SKITTLES! LOOK AT HIS CUTE FACE!"
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;43766254]"dangerous viligante" is a little more fair than "psycho with a hero complex"[/QUOTE] i dunno he seems alot more psycho after the whole, pulling guns out on his girlfriend thing [editline]3rd February 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Raidyr;43766374]You're both exaggerating (ie lying flat out) and it ruins any point you might have about media bias when it's so obvious.

[QUOTE=Lachz0r;43766916] again, wearing grills, selling weed & getting suspended isn't grounds for execution[/QUOTE] Did I fucking say they were
[QUOTE=katbug;43766819]They made trayvon seem like a little damn kid. They used pictures from when he was like eight and drove home the point that "Omg he was armed with SKITTLES! LOOK AT HIS CUTE FACE!"[/QUOTE] It's still at the very least makes me feel sympathetic. They were over-exaggerating, sure, but he stilled died pretty damn young.

[QUOTE=Lachz0r;43765412]i agree with sigmalambda re: it would be much better just to let psycho zimmerman fade into obscurity than to continue stroking his hero complex but i still wanna see him get his ass kicked [editline]3rd February 2014[/editline] would be even better if it was a UFC fight for charity[/QUOTE] god you are as bad as those people who hope people get raped or stabbed in prison.
[QUOTE=Lachz0r;43765687] or the other media response which was to paint trayvon as some sort of 'thug' because he had some grills and sold weed had nothing to do with him being black then alright again[/QUOTE] rofl i literally never saw this "media response" from any major media outlet
[QUOTE=Lachz0r;43766916]i dunno he seems alot more psycho after the whole, pulling guns out on his girlfriend thing[/quote] but that happened after the whole thing. it's safe to say the incident, as well as the media shitstorm had an effect on zimmerman (this is where you say "it had an effect on trayvon too he's 6 ft under") [quote]again, wearing grills, selling weed & getting suspended isn't grounds for execution[/QUOTE] but slamming someone's head against concrete is grounds for self-defense
