Mike Tyson On George Zimmerman Trayvon Martin

In an interview with Dylan Stableford, News Blogger for Yahoo, Rusty Iron Mike Tyson (you know, the pigeon raising, ear bitting, convicted rapist and all around nut job) apparently stated that George Zimmerman should be shot.

Here is what he ranted:

“As a black kid who grew up in Brooklyn, who was beat up, and then moved to the Catskills, and has had to deal with racial issues, what are your thoughts about the Trayvon Martin case?

My personal feeling is that, as a young kid that was beat on by a bully, the guy [Zimmerman] stalked him and didn’t follow instructions from a superior officer. But my all-around perspective, I wasn’t there. I don’t know what happened.

Even though this is the best country in the world, certain laws in this country are a disgrace to a nation of savages. It’s a majority versus a minority. That’s the way God planned it. He didn’t want to do something about it, He wanted us to do something about it. We have to continue tweeting, we have to continue marching, we have to continue fighting for Trayvon Martin.

If that’s not the case, he [Trayvon] was killed in vain, and we’re just waiting for it to happen to our children. It’s a disgrace that man hasn’t been dragged out of his house and tied to a car and taken away. Forget about him being arrested—the fact that he hasn’t been shot yet is a disgrace. That’s how I feel personally about it.” [Laughs]

There is just too much wrong with Tyson’s statement for me to want to begin pointing out even the most egregious portions of this screed. Tyson has certainly taken too many blows to his head.
