One side is trying to make Martin to be wholesome. The other side is now tying to make him sound a bit evil. Neither matters, just playing with emotions. People are trying to fit what happened to their agenda. They are working backwards.
So far there is only one witness and he caught the tail end of it and his story collaborates Zimmermans. All we know for sure is the police have cleared Zimmerman on the evidence presented SO FAR.
Don't forget the duke scandal.

When was young, I had the watch pull up on me more than once. They did not shoot me because I did not try to run or attack them.

We had a couple of those transplants around here and all they did was cause trouble. They got booted out of our school system so fast....

you need a better story.

tryingtogrow has an excellent story of how racism effected him. he said that one time a cop asked him some questions while his black neighbor beat the shit out of his wife with a 2x4.

i shed a few tears for tryingtogrow for that one.

Affected in this context would mean "have an influence on". Effect can be used as a Noun (not in this case), or a verb meaning "to create".

The word you need to use is Affected. You could also rewrite the sentence to read "tryingtogrow has a great story about how racism had an effect on him."

Grammar lesson on Effect and Affect, you will thank me for the rest of your life.

edit: He had it right the first time too.
