One other thing. I've mainly avoided this whole story, but I was in Houston the other day and a black channel (that's what it was, sorry) was having a round-table discussion about it. It was about 65% stoking the flames and 35% reasonable.
Anyway, what I found interesting is that they kept saying that Zimmerman was "half white." But, when they brought up President Obama in the conversation, it was never even imagined that he, too, is "half white," the same half as Zimmerman. Again, I have avoided this whole story; am I the only one who has noticed this or has it been beaten to death, too?
