So sick of this Trayvon vs. Zimmerman Murder Investigation which is being exploited by the Mainstream Media. First off, it should never even reach national news, because it intentionally creates public outrage. It's (objectively) not a relevant news story for "NATIONAL NEWS." This should never be exploited in such a way. Only local news coverage.

Secondly, it's part of American Tradition (and laws), for people to not be treated as guilty (innocent until proven guilty), until proven in a court of law. This is your 5th Amendment right.

Thirdly, in regards to the legal system (and violent crime), any and all labels should be considered irrelevant. Gay, Straight, White, Black, Yellow, Purple, etc. These are arbitrary labels, part of the collectivist group-thinking which completely rejects the notion of equality, and treating each other as individuals. Which, individualism is part of America's traditions (and laws).

You cannot claim to be part of this group (black), versus this group (white), and claim to want equality. Groups have pride as an innate flaw. It's part of collectivism. Similar to the battle of the sexes, regarding Masculinism vs. Feminism. Where one group proclaims that they're morally superior, for an arbitrary trait, which has nothing to do with a person's character/personhood.

All arbitrary pride groups should be disbanded. Why? They always become everything they initially hate. They become the oppressor, the bully. They become prideful, and arrogant. They feel that they're always the victim, thus, they always try and overpower their opposition. This is known as Collectivism vs. Individual. This is known in psychology as the Superiority vs. Inferiority Complex. This is known as Democracy, which the founders warned against. Hence, their quotes regarding sheep, wolves, and mob rule. This is why America is actually a Republic, where the individual is the priority. The individual is the only one that can commit crude actions, and we place the individual as being responsible for detestable actions. Skin Color, Gender, Sexuality, are all arbitrary in terms of the rule of law. The media knows this, but willingly attempts to divide all of you. They place all of you against each other. Pitting this group against that group. They paint this grandiose influence, of being black and proud. Being woman, and being proud. They paint this with every type of group, and arbitrary label. They literally control all of you through it, by influencing your opinions, and making you hate all of each other. That's one of many reasons, why this society is going nuts. Why you see outrage, arguments, and hate being spewed as a result of these types of events.

The same rule applies regarding the Democratic and Republican Parties. They make you prideful of your own, and hateful, of your opposition. They get you stuck in this mindset, that you MUST ONLY be loyal to this or that. Then, the same groups commit the same actions, and you still point fingers at one another. Hypocrisy, and everything you truly despise. Yet, you continue to do so, because you let them.

Similar to gun control, or corporations. A gun cannot be held responsible for the actions of the individual. The gun has no conscience, it cannot think on its own. It's only as dangerous as the intent of the person which wields it. A corporation is an entity, it cannot be held responsible for the actions of the people which comprise of such a corporation. The corporation itself has no conscience, just as the gun. They have no decision making abilities. Similar to the Democratic and Republican parties. They cannot be held responsible, and hated, when it's the actions of individuals which exist in both; which have led us to this point in history.

I become fearful, that we should ever become like this as well.
