"Being white does not make anyone a racist. Being a racist makes you a racist.
Perpetuating stereotypes makes you an accomplice and a racist." These are words I read on Olivia Emisar's Blog and they prompted me to
comment.
This is how I feel about the underbelly of racism and how Zimmerman used what he knew to aid his mission to kill without consequence.; this is the truest form of hate crime. I know that a good prosecuting lawyer can bring these things up; but unfortunately needs to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt- something that the most revered lawyer in the world cannot do if they are assuming what is in someone's mind.
It is my intuition that lodges in my gut and gives me this insight I can't shake:
Wanna be cop Zimmerman USED his knowledge about racism in his community to aid his violent crime. Hear me out: Zimmerman went out with a GUN fully aware (we know he has a violent history). His act upon Trayvon himself wasn't premeditated but his act upon someone black was already in his mnd. When he spotted Trayvon he knew that by targeting someone BLACK the Sanford Police wouldn't question his motive further. This makes ZIMMERMAN the lowest piece of scum.
He actually used his knowledge of RACIAL PROFILING by POLICE to aid his URGE to KILL. He was fully aware of community police and how they operated. Zimmerman was cunning in his plan, and even more evil than any other killer. Although he may purport to "LOVE black ppl, have black friends" he used his knowledge of the racial climate in Sanford and combined with the right to kill; otherwise known as the Stand Your Ground law to help him slink away from the crime scene without (he thought) a problem in the world. FOR THESE REASONS I know this is a HATE crime because it was demonic in its psychological details. I know people and what drives them, I was born with a sixth sense, and I am certain, inside myself that what I have said about Zimmerman is true. Too bad one can't prove this in a "justice" system.
So, knowing that racism and hate of "other" is deeply embedded in the psych of society how can it ever be eradicated? Just like WWII stopped the actions of Hitler from killing even more Jews and the Civil War stopped act of slavery, the anti-semites and racism still lives in peoples minds. How do we eradicate the knowledge that is placed in every mind and erase any negative in any person who will use it to disempower, punish or kill?
