That "hispanic" label (mother "from Peru", Causcasion Jewish father) does not matter.

There are plenty in almost all political, ethnic and racial groups commit terrible acts to other groups because of old and new prejudices; as well as to each other within the group or even between close family members.

The dude who shot Gabby Giffords appears to be insane for example, the soldier who killed the innocent people in Afghanistan appears to have been intoxicated and blacked out, but not a psychopath or mentally ill. A history of bad events, in a sense similar to George. Thise things are best tested in due process, and not by me, however.

Describing Zimmerman as a "psychopath" would indicate the perp was insane, and not accountable. That defense needs to be determined, but it appears to me that the guy probably has a long term control problem including rages; he made CHOICES leading up to the act. I feel the same way about OJ, (even though a jury did not find him proven beyond a doubt to be guilty.)

BTW, just the kind of guy who should not be carrying a concealed weapon IMO. He still does as we speak.
