I know that, but the media portrays him as white. That's what the general audience seems to think about Zimmerman. I know he's Hispanic, but when he's contrasted with a black man, he's going to be white. If it was between Caucasian and Hispanic, THEN Zimmerman would be Hispanic. But I'm just going by what the people seem to think about Zimmerman's nationality...which is white. But I do see your point and I'm sorry for the confusion.

If he were white Zimmerman wouldn't have thought anything of the child and would have assumed he was a resident.

Oh yeah? Says who? I think that's a textbook example of "speculation" if I do say so myself. That's like me saying...hey, if Zimmerman was black, Martin would've greeted him and given him a secret handshake.
