Oh please like i would trust anything that comes out of a site called "field negro" on this matter.
wasn't gonna waste my time replying
however your subsequent posts show that the ignorance is strong
and you were quite quick to lap up the phony witness story
which you wouldn't have if you'd bother reading my post never mind following the links
if you'd read my post you'd know the boys family had to take the local cops to court for the 911 recordings
2 of which in you can hear the boy screaming.
but of course people who judge others on skin color lack the intelligence granted an animal...*
zimmerman does look like a piggy what with those close set eyes and all
also he has priors for assault
but hey keep judging,it's yourselves you're judging in the end
i am no friend of the current POSUS: mk-kid/tavistock puppet that he is, but his color is irrelevant in any intelligent discussion.
*but my having a black president sooooooo irritates certain untermenschen in amerika.
oh and for the curious, field negro is the opposite of house negroedit on 23-3-2012 by DerepentLEstranger because: added edit and comment

If spanish people from Spain are white, then their countrymen who migrated to the Americas are also white.
Zimmerman may not have blond hair and blue eyes, but I am sure he considers himself white like many other Europeans who have come to America. You don't have to look Nordic to be considered white in the US. If that were true, many easteran europeans, greeks, italians, and middle easterners would have to check the "black" or "mixed race" box on employment applications.
But he's not from Spain. He's half Peruvian and does not look one bit at all what society would call a "white guy". He's only white now because it's convenient to stir up the masses.
I'd bet anything that before this, nobody ever called him a white guy.
I'm not debating that scientifically or categorically he may be Caucasoid. Guess who else would fall into that category: Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, Ricardo Montalban, think any of them were ever called a white guy? Well they are/were Caucasian? And that is the argument for calling Zimmerman white. He's white now because it can make the headlines and the anti-gun agenda can gain momentum.

Yes, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is white, as determined by the US government.
All employment applications instruct Europeans, Middle Easterners, and North Africans to select the white check box.
As for Zimmerman, a Peruvian can also be white. If Christopher Colombus settled down with a woman from Spain in Peru, all their children would be racially white. Are you going to dispute that people from Spain who migrated to South America suddenly stopped being white because they changed continents?
Hispanic refers to a language, culture, and geographical location, not a race.

Simply not true! Go to college and take some anthropology classes.
Hispanics fall under the Mongoloid category of race, whites are Caucasoid. White genes are repressive, and all others are dominant. If a caucasoid reproduces with a mongloid or negroid, their dominant genes override the caucasoid's repressive genes. Native Americans come from asia, originally.

I'm thinking you're meaning recessive genes. Marystilltoe's post is correct, usually governmental forms have a question asking if one is hispanic then it goes on to ask the person's racial identification, therefore letting it be known being hispanic is not a race.edit on 25-3-2012 by Chai_An because: (no reason given)

The problem is our leaders, a good leader would have stepped up to the plate to calm his people, ours used it as a political ploy, and created more divisiveness.

Former NAACP leader C.L. Bryant is accusing Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton of “exploiting” the Trayvon Martin tragedy to “racially divide this country.”
“His family should be outraged at the fact that they’re using this child as the bait to inflame racial passions,” Rev. C.L. Bryant said in a Monday interview with The Daily Caller.
The conservative black pastor who was once the chapter president of the Garland, Texas NAACP called Jackson and Sharpton “race hustlers” and said they are “acting as though they are buzzards circling the carcass of this young boy.”
Bryant said he worries that “people like Sharpton and those on the left” will make Martin’s death a campaign issue in the presidential race.
He speculated that they will “turn this evolving tragedy of this young man into fodder to say… if you don’t re-elect Obama then you will have unbridled events or circumstances like this happening in the streets to young men wearing hoodies.”

To answer your question, I think maybe that if this ever does reach a court room and Zimmerman is still an innocent man, the left and the civil rights groups will go crazy and riot.

A lot of Hispanics do identify themselves as Caucasian. Just saying.
They don't "identify" themselves as Caucasian...they are Caucasian.
Hispanic is not a race...it's an ethnicity.
I don't expect most people here to comprehend this.
