You really took him literally? What if he had a knife pulled on him with two run ins with the same group of mexicans (i really think he means illegal workers based on the tone)? It's hyperbole, everyone does it and it DOES NOT in any way make him a racist.
There have been several instances in this thread where you have made statements that are more racist than what he did here. You even admitted to one being "a little racist" which was funny because you are either prone to racist thoughts (as you have shown you are) or you are not.
He is hispanic he wasn't being racist. He might have been a little prejudiced towards immigrant/illegal workers due to unfortunate run ins, but not racist.

How is it wrong of him to say that on his webpage? If two goth kids pulled a knife on you on two seperate incidences it would not be uncommon for you to not only try to avoid goth kids from then on out, but to also say things like "everytime i run into a goth kid i get a knife pulled on me" it may not be the literal truth but you wouldn't be admonished for it.
You are the one reaching here. You are the one attaching sentiment to his words because it is your opinion that it's there. You don't know who he is or what his feelings were. What if he wrote that literally minutes after a mexican pulled a knife on him? You really don't know. You are reaching.

we will find out soon enough. that myspace page could be the least of his worries at this point. the more details come out the worse it seems to get for zimmerman. the new info about the inconsistencies in zimmermans testimony wont help either.

The myspace page is of NO worry.
More details that come out point to zimmermans innocence.
The myspace page shows he is not racist against any specific
race. Shows this had nothing to do with race at all..
Only inconsistencies coming out are the BS stories the MSM
is putting out trying to paint zimmerman as some big bad
racist with a gun... Not true at all
No evidence we know of to convict this man of murder.
The overcharging coming down because of all the hate filled
public opinion is only going to make it harder for any type
of conviction... Like shooting oneself in the foot..edit on 5-5-2012 by popsmayhem because: (no reason given)

i disagree, in my opinion the remarks he made about mexicans show his propensity to lump all people of a certain group together, it shows he has a discriminatory personality. it shows he profiled an entire nationality. if in fact he had a knife pulled on him even once by a mexican i'm sure there is a police report about it right? RIGHT? if it is admissible i'm sure his ties to biker gangs, laughing at the justice system, bragging about getting charges reduced and his "ex hoe" will not help. by the way what would you say to defend those ramblings?
if it is admissible in court i feel the jurors will feel the same. then again trayvons twitter and social media would be admissible as well and it might level the playing field once again. i think the inconsistencies in zimmermans testimony and his fathers and brothers testimony not adding up will have a greater impact on the case.
