Unpopular Opinions
Put random opinions about anything you can think of that you're in the minority on.
Goldeneye was bad when it was released
Mass Effect is an overall average series, with a few interesting characters
The Japanese version of DBZ is far better than the English dub

Re: Unpopular Opinions
The media is painting George Zimmerman as a murdering racist when there is no evidence disproving that he acted out of self-defense. If anything, the lacerations on the back of his head, closed fracture of his nose, black eyes, and minor back injury he had after the altercation support his claim.
Re: Unpopular Opinions
I haven't been following the case very closely, but from what I understand, he went out of his way to chase after Martin AFTER being explicitly told not to because he wanted to play cop.
So yeah. Still a fucking moron and a horrible person.

Sure, if a crazy asshole was chasing you down for wearing a hoodie and being black, I could understand wanting to attack him. Zimmerman deserves the shit he gets.

Re: Unpopular Opinions
Oh, right. The head of the neighbor hood watch following you because you seem to be acting suspicious in a gated community is totally reason to start bashing his head into the concrete. That couldn't be what happened, though. That racist, hispanic Zimmerman who comes from a multi-racial family clearly shot that poor innocent black kid simply because he was black, and he deserves to have his entire repuation and future thrown down the gutter and have a $10,000 bounty put on him by the freaking Black Panther. Hey, an eye for an eye, right?
I also love how the media has been using pictures of Martin when he was several years younger and a mugshot of Zimmerman from a previous arrest. Let's not use more recent photos, and heaven forbid we use that photo Martin uploaded to his own Twitter a few monthes ago with gold teeth in his mouth. That might actually make him look like a gansta! And we don't want our poor, innocent victim being painted the wrong way.
Innocent until proven guilty, unless there's a black person on the other end. Crowley and Gates, the Duke lacrosse players, and now this. If Zimmerman is really guilty of a hate crime, then get down to the facts and give him the punishment he deserves. But until you have any actual proof, people and the media need to jump off the "white guy is always guilty" bandwagon.
Oops, my bad. "Hispanic guy is always guilty" bandwagon.

Re: Unpopular Opinions
Because as we all know, hispanic people cannot be white, nor racist.
I don't know in what way Martin was 'acting suspicious', and I don't know why you think having Martin having gold teeth or whatever (I didn't even hear about this) is relevant in any way to the case, but okay, a teenager got shot and died and I guess we can all just play blame the victim here!

Or human.
Re: Unpopular Opinions
Of course not, but it's a lot easier for the media to make him seem racist if they don't mention that he's hispanic and comes from a multi-racial family. Or that he has a black friend that vouched for him on national TV or that he would help tutor kids (including black kids) in his spare time.Maffi wrote:Because as we all know, hispanic people cannot be white, nor racist.
The point was that rather than using a recent photo, the media just used something from five years ago to make him look like a harmless child. I'm not saying the media should have to use those photos he posted of himself with gold teeth or those ones of him giving the camera the finger (whether or not that tells us something about his character) but they should at least post something recent.Maffi wrote:I don't know in what way Martin was 'acting suspicious', and I don't know why you think having Martin having gold teeth or whatever (I didn't even hear about this) is relevant in any way to the case
Here's an unbiased, recent photo of Martin that doesn't make him look like a child or a gansta:

Re: Unpopular Opinions
I guess that's fair enough. I'm not super into turning this into a thing, so I'll leave the thread for now and let it back to the silly shit I guess it was supposed to be about.

Maffi's post should have been in the Popular Opinion Thread.
Edit: And so should the above statement.
Edit x2: And the one above this one.
Edit x3: Crap, it never ends.
