FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Celebrities have taken up the cause of justice for the teen, many wearing the “hoodie” or hooded sweatshirt that Trayvon wore in a style popular with black youth. President Barack Obama said “all of us have to do some soul-searching” as a result of the tragedy.
“I’m a black male and all that I know is that George has never given me any reason whatsoever to believe he has anything against people of color,” Mr Oliver said.
Sanford police did not arrest Zimmerman, saying the evidence could not disprove his account of self-defence, though the case is under review by a state special prosecutor and the US Justice Department.
Mr Zimmerman dropped out of public view shortly after the shooting and his whereabouts were unknown. The New Black Panther Party, an African American organization taking its name from the radical group of the 1960s, has placed a $10,000 bounty on Zimmerman.
“All these people who are threatening George, what makes them any better than the person they think he is?” Oliver said. “You’ve got all these people wanting to lynch the man and they don’t know the whole story. There are huge gaps that are being filled in and interpreted without evidence.”
As a black man, Mr Oliver said minorities are often unfairly treated, but he believed Zimmerman was simply doing his job as a neighborhood watch volunteer by growing suspicious over an unfamiliar person walking through a neighborhood that had suffered some break-ins.
Trayvon lived in Miami but was with his father on a visit to his father’s fiancee’s home inside the gated community.
“I understand how they’re able to leap to the conclusion. You have a dead teenager. This guy is white so it must be a hate crime. There’s going to be evidence to come out that basically will justify George’s concern,” Oliver said.
“He (Zimmerman) confirmed for me that he was not the aggressor. But I did not go into details as to how it got to that aggressive point,” Oliver said.
A lawyer representing the Martin family disputes Mr Zimmerman’s self defence claims, saying he “stalked” Martin against the instructions of an emergency services operator.
“It seems Joe Oliver and Geraldo Rivera are in agreement that this senseless shooting is somehow Trayvon Martin’s fault,” Benjamin Crump said, referring to the celebrity journalist’s comment that “Trayvon Martin would be alive today but for his hoodie.”
“Had Zimmerman simply stayed in his vehicle, Trayvon Martin would be pursuing his dreams,” Mr Crump said.
