But TM didn't do that did he? Why did he not dial the cops and ask for assistance? He could easily have kept running from Z and dialed the cops while in motion.......easy enough to do, right? He was a literal heart beat from his father's house so why didn't he yell out for help?
Again, when were the cops ever on the side of a black kid in a white hood.

Forget the cops, all TM had to do was keep putting one foot in front of the other and yell for help. He was a literal stone's throw from his daddy's house. Or, circle around and lose GZ; it wasn't like he had tail lights from a Mercedes strapped to his ass guiding GZ like landing lights. Losing the cracka at night should have been easy easy.

No you're right, being black was enough.

All he HAD to do....
so it is now incumbent upon the victim to run and scream for help?????

How in the F**K does that fit into your penchant for SYG???

You are either a living pretzel, or mobius strip...

Before the fight, TM was neither victim nor perp. He was walking.

Before the fight, GZ was neither victim nor perp. He was walking/driving.

The jury bought GZ's story, as told by police & witnesses.

Was there more to it? Probably. But we get "more" through speculation as there is no additional evidence to be had.

The family's civil action might turn up additional evidence.

1. NOT a white "hood". multi-racial. check it out

2. NOT all cops are white, they come in all colors too

3. Your Euro hyppocritical BS is showing: Before you go all ballistic about racism in the US, look towards the European history of regicide, genocide & racial, cultural & religious discrimination (and slaughter)... I really get sick n tired of hearing Euro citizens harping about how bad the US history is on stuff like this, when there is most likely no more than a few square feet on the European continent where there was not somebody's blood spilled unjustly.....fix your own house, asshat

Sorry but I live in the USA longer then I lived anywhere else, I don't really care what happens in Europe to be honest. And when we discuss racism in Europe I lett you know where I stand.

Malcom was a righteous man, railed against the system...struck down by treachery

Farrakan seems a bit looney.....and is somewhat of an opportunist and baiter.

NOI has at times, been the best solution for crime ridden neighborhoods. However, like what happned when the Taliban took control and stopped the post Soviet invasion infighting of the Mujahadeen, many fear what would occur if they (NOI) were the dominant force. radicalism has its place, but seldom is sucessful in long term solutions for anything....not saying particually the NOI is that radical in the Islamist fashion, but the nexus is there.
