Charles Barkley ‘Agrees’ With GZ Verdict, Says ‘Black People Are Racist Too’ [VIDEO]

NBA legend and TNT analyst Charles Barkley appeared on CNBC’s Closing Bell with Maria Bartiromo Thursday afternoon and voiced his support for the 6 jurors who allowed George Zimmerman, 29, to get away with the February 26, 2012 murder of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin. “I agree with the verdict,” Barkley told Bartiromo. “I’m sorry that young kid got killed, but they didn’t have enough evidence to charge him.” Though there was some “racial profiling,” in the case, Barkley said, “something happened that changed the dynamic that night.” Read more from Mediaite.com: [Barkley] also called out the media for not having a “pure heart” when it comes to race. “Racism is wrong in any, shape or form,” Barkley said. “A lot of black people are racist too.
