        @kaysexwale because Obama knows what it's like to murder innocents and not be held accountable. #TrayvonMartin

        @BBCBreaking Why do you specify black teenager? You did not give Zimmerman's race. Does him being black differentiate him from other teens?

        @BBCBreaking The wording here "cleared of murdering black teenager" Seems slightly race baiting yes? Oh but of course not..silly me.

        @BBCBreaking having him cleared of that case, I wonder how good and smart that defense lawyer Zimmerman had. The tactics in court he used.

        @BBCBreaking The jury found #Zimmerman was justified in shooting a street thug in self defense before the thug beat him to death. #Tcot

        @BBCBreaking The establishment brazenly ignored moral standards & public opinion in US decades before George & Jed made it obvious to all.
