There is no doubt that some persons are pulling the race card in this situation, but anyone with a smidgen of common sense can see that something was amiss with how things were handled.
The issue for me was how the police department initially decided not to pursue an investigation in a scenario where an unarmed teen was shot by a neighborhood watch captain, especially when the very defense of SYG that the shooter claimed also could apply to the victim.
Completely removing accountability from the shooter for his actions when those very actions have led to a dead teen is unfair and highly questionable. It is quite logical and rational to gather all relevant evidence and to perform due diligence to ensure that justice is served on behalf of both the victim and the shooter.
