And you might not. You may commit a violent act and then live thirty more years and die peacefully in your bed, which pretty much debunks your, "when your last act on earth is a violent act that its not surprising that you die violently dont you?" theory.

I guess what bothers me the most about this is what happened to Trayvor is really no big deal. Blacks murder 1600 whites per year in the US and its barely mentioned as anything more than another statistic. Hopefully what happened to Trayvor will deter other kids from going down the wrong path in life and make them realize that on occasion there are consequences for ones choices and actions. I have had a family member that was the victim of senseless black on white violent crime so I know first hand what its like to be on the victim side of this. Its too bad a Zimmerman wasnt there beforehand to intervene on his behalf or he would still be with us today. for John Q Liberal Public to run to Trayvors defense only because he is black and they believe it to be pc to do so is absurd. I call what happened to Trayvor "preventive maintenance".

Yes, when people die it's not any big deal at all.

Such as the choice to walk to the store at night?

I've been a victim of violence too. Odd that it didn't make me a bigot.

I don't defend people based on race. Neither do I condemn them for it.

And I call that statement disgusting, bigoted trolling.

What was Trayvon's "wrong path in life" and why did it deserve his death?

Why do you think it's only because he's black?

Personally - I see an unarmed youth doing nothing that deserved his death - regardless of race.

Really. Was it the Skittle addiction, or the reckless consumption of Arizona Iced Tea?

Could it not have been simply a senseless crime of violence that had nothing to do with race?

It seems that racial aspects of it are more distressing to you then the fact that it was a senseless crime of violence.
