Frank Taaffe defense of George Zimmerman back-fires

When will we learn that individuals who tend to try and help often times does more damage than good?  This is quite evident in the recent new stories beginning with Zimmerman’s father and now ending with this now misguided attempt by Zimmerman’s neighbor. 

According to an article written by Dylan Stableford from The Cutline titled “ Zimmerman neighbor on robberies by ‘young black men’ before Trayvon shooting: ‘If you plant corn, you get corn’, it is reported that “Zimmerman's Sanford, Fla., neighbor, said the neighborhood watchman protected his residence from a potential burglary several weeks before the shooting of Trayvon Martin.  Frank Taaffe, a former neighborhood watch captain, told CNN's "Starting Point" that his house was in the process of being robbed on Feb. 2, but Zimmerman called Sanford police, who thwarted the robbery.  "My house was being robbed, and George on his nightly rounds watched this burglary in progress, called Sanford P.D., waited for them, and helped ensure that nothing bad happened to my house," Taaffe said. "And it's documented in the 911 call for February 2. That was my residence that George Zimmerman helped stop."

But instead of leaving it there, “Taaffe said that "young black males" were the perpetrators in the attempted robbery of his home. "We had eight burglaries in our neighborhood all perpetrated by young black males in the 15 months prior to Trayvon being shot," Taaffe said. "It would have been nine."  He began to sink even further in his own juices when he “denied that he told the New York Times that burglaries were done by "Trayvon-like dudes with their pants down."    It was still not that bad and quite recoverable had it ended there but as the saying goes; give a cowboy enough rope and he will hang himself.  Taaffe confirmed his inability to help Zimmerman cause “When asked if, based on the string of robberies, Zimmerman should have been profiling Trayvon Martin the night of the shooting, Taaffe said: "There's an old saying, 'If you plant corn, you get corn,”  "It is what it is," he added.  “I would go on record by stating that of the eight prior burglaries in the 15 months prior to the Trayvon Martin shooting, all of the perpetrators were young black males."

The only questions I would have to ask Mr. Taaffe would be how many of those eight burglaries ended in death and if George Zimmerman was able to help Sanford Police thwart the burglary of his home by notifying the police and letting them do their job, why would he not do the same in this case?  I would also like to know from Mr. Taaffe if he knew whether Zimmerman was armed during that time?
