Death of Martin T, George Zimmerman, and Black America's quest for Justice.

Man o man! if there was any issue that shook Black America in  the past 17 months and the quest to see justice take its course as it is supposed to be is that of the death of Trayvon Martin. His sad end came on February 26th, 2012 in Sanford Florida. He met his untimely death through a gun fire from one George Zimmerman who later in court proceedings claim he did kill the 17 year old for self defense. How could that be as many people including myself asked? the boy had no weapon, not even a stone in his hand but because he looked suspicious, the bloke shot him to death. That is why most people are saying it was racially motivated and others claims there was no racial anything. Man if you were a black man in America, go through what black people go through then you will come to terms with the fight and fight of the black man. I am not in anyway close to discussing what I think in this whole case but to kill is just wrong no matter the situation. Good earth is rich and good enough for all of us no matter skin pigmentation.
To tell you the truth, black America was troubled because there were evidence that some racial elements were at play but then again it has always been so and the story is never different though it is somewhat moderate.

Anyway,the way and manner in which the incidence unfolded and ended up catching the attention of the press and people not only in America but the world at large was unbelievable.

I write about this because today marks a week since that verdict was pronounced. That verdict shocked many people because George according to the six member juror was NOT FOUND GUILTY of the murder. That sparked outrage across some major cities in the country especially in black America. because many believed the verdict was unjust and sought to have justice. I know we humans because I am one of them at least, we always seek instant justice because that to some degree is what pleases the our spirits. Revenge is always the answer for we usually lacks forgiveness. But Nelson Mandela kept it nicely that, revenge is like drinking poison and only hoping it will kill your enemy. To fight for justice will only end up with more harm than good. So let forgiveness reign and God will take off from there.

Also, as far us we humans in this world are concerned, there is no such thing as justice. Our world was founded by some early humans through injustice. Even America in 1492 by Columbus years ago and I say this because those days people of strength fought and colonized and until this day in the 21st century we still have such at work. Weak men have no chances of survival where the strong dominates. By weak am not only referring to physical strength. 
For instance in America somebody can commit a crime, kill somebody like George Zimmerman did but in the end might go spot free just because they either have affluent wealth or they know somebody of power and that by the way is not only in America who is supposed to be a model but all across the world. I am from Ghana and in Ghana there is no exception which is sad to say.
We need honesty and transparency. 

Nonetheless, laws in America works just that they are not perfect; great and not just. People of color still suffer so much equality and discrimination everywhere, and get profile on top which of course is the origin of the Zimmerman's case. He accordingly made a statement after Martin was dead that "These people always get away with it" which people was he referring to?blacks of course. 
My take is that, although he was not found guilty by six human beings through the court process he will have to deal with this dilemma whether he like it or not for taking the life of an innocent 17 year old for the rest of his life. And not just that, he will also face the big divine judge for it is my belief that there is a God and to him alone justice is due. After all an eye for an eye only makes the whole world blind-Mahatma Ghandi.

There are still a lot of people out there protesting, and even with an investigation by the Justice Department into the case but I will say all of that should not be. We have to have a system that we all have to respect despite its shortfalls. We cannot afford to live in a chaotic society especially at this time. There is enough troubles to fight.
We need to be honest though, lies should not be tolerated but sometimes due to fear of facing the consequences of our stupidity and folly, we resort to lies to escape.
God have me!
Rest in Peace Martin.
