Why do Libs and Black Minorities agree upon this?

Zimmerman is "white" dispite him being half Hispanic and half white

Could Zimmerman being called just white be the racist black and white guilt motivated feeling that any slight against any black person by a non black is racially motivated. No matter how actual evidence points to that not being the case what so ever..

Hispanics also play the "race card" against whites.. After all they are accepted by the black community because they share the same dislike for white people.. also notice how latinos are the only non black group that can get away with saying the "N" word in the Street sense. without any raised eyebrows..

I'm white and grew up in inner-city chicago so i have seen this happen my whole life..

Update:

@Roger you proved my point.. just because he killed a black person.. how does that make him somehow "hate" black people..

Update 2:

@ Dramatic.. like black people do EVERY time a black person is killed by a nonblack.. Black peoploe what to make it a big racial deal. SO who is stirring up stuff..

    Whether he's more White or Hispanic, it still doesn't take away from the fact that he hates Blacks for some reason.

    Your problem is that you don't understand race, skin color, culture and the nuances of cultural interactions and class. In other words, your complex ignorance is why you have so many questions rolled up into this one.

    Let me just write this: Hispanic is not a race! Hispanics can be of any race and of any color. Zimmerman is apparently a caucasian with mongoloid and perhaps SOME ne9roid roots, based on what some have said about his lineage.

    In fact many, many whites have mongoloid and neg9roid DNA, though it may not show as well as with Zimmerman.

    As for Hispanics you may have heard use the "n" word in the presence of blacks and appear to "get away with it," all I could say about that is perhaps they're of Puerto Rican descent and therefore have some ne9roid heritage, or they have an arrangement and understanding among their black friends... Just guessing.

    Unfortunately, many Americans (of all races and colors) are notoriously ignorant about a lot of important things because of lack of exposure.

    Why do republicans post this same question repeatedly?

    Zimmerman was initially called "Caucasian/white" by the media because the media was reading the description of Zimmerman directly from the Sanford Police Report. Once Zimmerman came forward and said that he was Hispanic, the media reclassified his status as "white Hispanic" because the Official Sanford Police Report still stated that Zimmerman was white AND Zimmerman said that he was Hispanic.

    Oh geez...just give it up already. Just join in on one of the other 5 million posts about this same topic. Is race all you people ever talk about? How about you go out and help someone instead of trying to stir up the finger pointing. I'm sure blacks, whites,hispanics and everyone else can use your help at your local homeless shelter,food bank, goodwill or metropolitan ministries. Don't be a part of the problem.

    Roger is what we like to call a useful idiot.

    It's liked programmed responses.

    With the right input (ie bullsh*t from the TV to convince you it's all about race) he will give the right output.

    If your a politician, useful idiots are a must have.

    It is very simple.

    President Obama is half white and half black. He is considered black, because he looks more black than white.

    Zimmerman is half white and half Hispanic. He is considered white, because he looks more white than Hispanic. He even considered himself white on an application.

    Stop pairing blacks with hispanics- that is not fair to hispanics. Hispanics don't abondon their kids, wives, families and work their asses off- and if you go to any college campus you will see it starting to pay off.

    In order to overcome your tendency to stereotype people, may I suggest you start by reading Guns, Germs and Steel by Jared Diamond.
