    None of those are synonymous with "follow."

    Then...

    911 dispatcher:

    Are you following him? [2:24]

    Zimmerman:

    Yeah. [2:25]

    911 dispatcher:

    OK.

    We don’t need you to do that. [2:26]

    Then....

    911 dispatcher:

    OK, do you just want to meet with them at the mailboxes then? [3:42]

    Zimmerman:

    Yeah, that’s fine. [3:43]


    Still waiting for a good reason for him to get out of his vehicle.

    You have a low threshold for declaring a riot.

    The anti-Zimmerman crowd is who made it all about race, members and moderators.
    The facts plainly show the circumstances had nothing to do with race.
    Actually, the only proved racial animus was from Trayvon when he called GZ a cracker.
    They knew they would lose on self-defense, so the Martins decided to commit to race.
    Hence the ridiculous and heretofore unheard-of term "white Hispanic."

    Lock this thread, State v Zimmerman isn't worth the bandwidth. It's one murder, one poorly tried criminal case and one nation's media that is chasing the lowest common denominator of Walmart Shoppers.

    It doesn't look like a prayer vigil. What would you call it?

    I remember hearing about discrimination among Hispanics towards Hispanics with white skin, from a mixed marriage, back in the mid-1980s, but I was living in Arizona at the time.

    Sometimes it's easier to acknowledge that something actually is true but you never heard about it.

    L.A. Times:

    he Los Angeles Police Department has called a citywide tactical alert after demonstrators protesting the not guilty verdict in the George Zimmerman case blocked traffic on the 10 Freeway in the Mid-City area Sunday evening.

    The California Highway Patrol said "police activity" near the 10 Freeway and Crenshaw Boulevard has jammed traffic. Motorists are urged to avoid the area.

    LAPD sources said it was unclear if any arrests have been made.

    Officials said portions of the 10 were closed from 6:20 p.m. to 6:44 p.m. but have since reopened.

    The US census was using the term in the late 1990s.
