Zimmerman is also a visible minority.

Do you think that hispanics are well treated in American society? The idea that the justice system would side with an hispanic, especially one that had great political pressure against him, is ridiculous.

I'm not saying that Zimmerman's motives weren't motivated by racism. That's totally possible. Blacks and hispanics can be racist towards eachother. But the idea that the justice system, or American society in general, is somehow pro-hispanic is ridiculous.
