Man Convicted for Shooting Teenager

Well, for one you're trying to compare a case that took place in New York with one that took place in Florida. If Zimmerman was tried in New York the case would've most likely had a different outcome. Florida has stand your ground laws which allowed Zimmerman to protect himself using deadly force, whereas New York doesn't.

The cases aren't even that similar. The reason Zimmerman was found not guilty was because there was evidence that he was physically assaulted and that his life was in danger when he shot Martin. In the New York case, there was no evidence to suggest the shooter was physically assaulted.

All this is is a poor attempt at playing the race card. You can't compare two different cases tried in two places with different sets of laws. It just doesn't work like that.
