  1. All that’s important is that he is AFRICAN AMERICAN! Swiss has NOTHING to do with anything, like Zimmerman being a WHITE Latino who’s skin is five shades darker than Beyonce’s. Please, try to TELL THE TRUTH!

  2. And like night follows day, here come the white people saying black cops can’t further their own self-interest by participating in a corrupt system that fails to protect vulnerable citizens from police brutality, just because of the color of that cop’s skin. I don’t make judgment about anyone personally, but please don’t pretend that black cops can’t be part of this problem.

  3. Who freaking cares about his Fn race. Others are making this a race issue. They killed or participated in the killing of an unarmed man that so happens to be black and we don’t know yet, however they are saying it was a fraudulent $20 bill. So that means he should be killed? Again, who really gives a F if he is black or white. He didn’t protect this man. I mean really?
