I'm not signing until the spelling errors are fixed.

Done. I thought the site would allow me to edit it before I posted it, but I went back and corrected the mistakes.

Can you edit it? You should take out the "especially a young black teenager" part and take out the "the" before "Zimmerman" in the 2nd paragraph.

With the "especially" part, it makes it seem like you're implying black children are more important than children of other races which is not good for PR.

Exhibit A (from the petition):

When a man can kill a child and walk away from it legally (especially a young black teenager) there is no reason from him to be acknowledged as a 'celebrity', nor should he be allowed to benefit from it. As much as we all would like to see George Zimmerman get his head knocked clean off, allowing this "celebrity boxing match" to go on does nothing more than make a mockery of American justice even further.

Join us as we continue the fight for justice of Trayvon Martin and his family. By signing this petition, we will tell the Zimmerman, his promoter, and any of his supporters around the country and the world that killing kids should never get you any recognition anywhere other than being the selfish and cowardly human being you are.

Justice was never done for this young man, Trayvon Martin. It's time that the people issued some of their own.

In other words, I would remove the bolded parts.

i think he means that the " young black teenager" part shows that they are at higher risk of being targeted/ discriminated against..

I'm sure he did, but if that's the case, he should have explained it that way. The way it's written now can easily come off as black children are more important than children of other races.

 

[blackrain]

Wheres the civil suit against this nigga ?

OJ was found not guilty and still civilly-liable which stopped him from being able to make money from books or shit like this without the family getting a cut.

OJ actually had money. Zimmerman ain't got shit. Nigga couldn't even pay his lawyer without donations

 

[Sour-Cream]

Word, that shit's sad when people donate money to help a convicted murderer promote genocide.

We have 40+ votes saying they would sign the petition, but only a handful of people signed it so far.

Here's the link to the petition that Mister B. set up:

Are you guys okay with what it says? Do you want to edit it at all? WEIGH IN.

Personally, I think the "(especially a young black teenager)" should be edited out because to me it reads like we're saying black teenagers are more important than teenagers of other races which could rub a lot of potential signers the wrong way.

I also think the "the" before "Zimmerman" in the 2nd paragraph should be edited out for grammar purposes. Other than that I'm fine with it.

What do y'all think?
