  4. He was not shot because of skittles and ice tea. The media hypes this by saying this was the reason. It is not.

  9. I agree with what you said. His murder is unjust. The FBI is involved because they think what zimmerman did is a hate crime and are trying to figure out what happened just like the rest of us.
