(AllHipHop News) The best defense is sometimes offense and George Zimmerman’s brother has no problem being offensive to clear his brother’s name. On Sunday(March 26) Robert Zimmerman Jr posted a photo on his personal Twitter account making a seemingly racist comparison between Trayvon Martin and De’Marquise Elkins, a 17-year old who allegedly killed a baby.

De’Marquise Elkins has been charged with the murder of a 13-month of child in Brunswick, GA. Zimmerman tweeted to another user comparing the threatening words both Elkins and Martin have been accused of saying at the time of their respective incidents:
@anthonycumia Teen to West: “Do you want me to shoot your baby?” #TrayvonMartin to #GeorgeZimmerman : You’re gonna die tonight Motherf**ker”

When someone who identifies themselves as a minority responds to Zimmerman Jr remarks he addresses a bias in the liberal media:
.@pleasefeedthedj The issue is: the media skirted the existence of those pictures.They cast TM in a child-like light and my bro as a villain

This is another attempt by the Zimmerman family to alter the public perception of their accused family member. A month following the February 26th murder of Trayvon Martin, George Zimmerman’s father, Robert Zimmerman Sr asserted that Martin assaulted his son and “said something to the effect of ‘you’re going to die now or you’re going to die tonight.”
The trial is set for June 10th, 2013.
