I think his attempt was to show that armed citizens prevent things like this, and that we need more people like Mr. Zimmerman, with a little bit of humor in as well. But it is true.
*edit* And since you didn't follow the case, it makes me think you took the bait like many people did as far as not seeing the facts in it, and perceived his comment to be "bad". If his comment said, "this is a job for armed citizens" you would have most likely agreed, but the picture of Zimmerman that has been painted in your head is of a "bad" man because, you didn't follow the case.
Wait, what did Zimmerman prevent, by being armed? A boy from going home and eating his Skittles? Not funny.

The FBI reports that violent crimes and property crimes have both been going steadily down since 1991-94. Perhaps their figures are wrong.
Perhaps the media is trying to make it look like crime is up. Certainly racial crime is getting a lot of play. Why? To draw viewers to their stories? Money is always a good reason. To try to forward an agenda or ideology? If so which agenda? Do they want people mad? I don't get it. Sorry for all the questions.
You are spot on. Our crime (racially motivated or not) has been declining steadily for years. Our perception of crimes, especially ones involving race, is going up.
This creates a dilemma for most racists. On one hand, they like to think Obama is controlling the media which likes to report and sensationalize anything race-related. On the other hand, if you are to believe the media is lying, you also have to believe that crime of all kinds is going down.
Media lies, statistics don't.

THANK YOU. It seems plenty of people seem to jump on this "whites are being persecuted" fear, resulting in a assertions that every crime reporting blacks assaulting whites with the media not reporting on it, means that whites are now in danger because Obama and Holder hates whites. It's funny, i didn't see much of this sentiment before the Trayvon/Zimmerman trial.
How many msm reports on whites killing blacks do you see on your tv? Barely any throughout the country. How many reports on blacks killing blacks? Plenty. how many reports on blacks killing whites? Not as much but also plenty. How many reports on whites killing whites? Still Plenty.
I'm gonna bet the ratio of blacks killing whites has not all of a sudden increased, but this Zimmeram/Trayvon trail has accelerated the ignorance of both races; blacks think that yet another white man gets off for a black person's murder, whites think that the media branded this non-white man a vicious racist who # the kid for nothing, and that means the government is out to get the whites.
From this, they are able to successfully divide the population in a time when they need to be most unified, hich is now, and the horrible coming years.
From reading these posts, it looks like they have completed their objective.
