The best victim is a dead victim. Easier to argue against them in court.

I had a neighbor I hadn’t seen in a while ask me what I thought about the Zimmerman trial. Told him straight out it was an open invitation to start lynching black people in FL.

He’s trying to go with the whole “The trial was just, but it’s a shame that the kid was dead”. Also added a little victim blaming, along the lines of Martin double-backed and confronted Zimmerman.

Sometimes, I think people who agree with the jury, but say “Too bad about that kid” know the murder was more racially motivated than they care to admit, but don’t want to acknowledge it.
