I looked at the 1st post and wanted to puke. I don't live in a bubble, but I guess I'm just ignorant about the degree of racism that exists. I will never view that forum again, and I hope Ron fucks with them royally.
The level of professionalism and respect for the court is astounding in this case. With a few exceptions, it is almost like watching a movie about a trial. Unfortunately, it's not a movie, but I have never seen a trial conducted with such good Prosecutors. Their knowledge of the case, the law, and even their tones of voice are amazing. With the whole country watching for the outcome of this trial, the State picked the best and brightest to try it, and it shows.
Does anyone know how many of the 50 or so calls he made to non-emergency actually turned out to be anything or led to an arrest? I know that his buddy Frank Taafees (sorry for sp) said that he helped with a robbery that was at his house but was there any others?
It seems like a good deal of them were "my wife saw or said" when he called in also. Did she just sit in front of the window all day looking for a life?
I am gonna take a stab at playing devil's advocate. Suppose that Trayvon , after his big fb post, burning a big fattie, pimpin' out his bitches, decided to leave his Uzi with a full magazine of rhino bullets and his brass knuckles on the table at home while he stepped out for a refreshing snack of skittles.and tea. Let's assume that since Tray was such a gangsta that he didn't even pay for his snack. So he is headed down the street flashing gang signs and saying "Yo, what up?", to people as they pass him on the street. Let's say for the sake of argument that GZ witnessed TM coming out a house that he had.just broken into with diamonds and women's panties hanging out of his hand. At what point after GZ was told by the dispatcher, " We got this", did GZ have the authority to pursue TM? Under what authority as a Neighborhood Watch Commander Grand High Poobah of Upper Asscrack, did GZ have to carry a loaded gun to patrol a gated community without identifying himself as such in said community? Even the devil himself would tell you there ain't no way GZ can get around it. He acted of his own volition. He freely and knowingly put himself in the position of possibly being in harms way. It is comparable to an untrained person off the street going into the cage of a lion that has not eaten in days with a steak tied to his throat and shooting the lion because it lunged at him. Except Trayvon was not a lion or gangsta he was a teenager who did like most teens his age. He talked a lot of bullshit with his homies, did a few hand signs like he saw.the rappers on MTV do in their videos, maybe even toked a doob now and again. Hell, I have caught my 11 y/o doing a Lil Wayne song (much to my horror). But Trayvon wasn't anymore of a hardcore criminal than I was at that age, except back then we pierced or noses and ears with safety pins, listened to Joy Division while burning a fattie, or slammed to the Sex Pistols. This was a kid who absolutely under no circumstances deserved to die. GZ is the criminal. I just wish the damn media would get that shit straight.

I was watching Anderson Cooper for about 5 minutes tonight and I didn't get that at all. The "heads" were inferring this the prosecutor isn't proving his case and GZ's side is going to disprove everything. It pissed me off so I quit watching.
If you can imagine Sheldon Cooper trying to do Lil Wayne if makes it all the more funny.

Unless you just think you can shoot random non-white teenagers, I don't se how you can side with Zimmerman. I mean, like I previously said, even if Trayvon punched him right in his chin, it doesn't warrant the shooting....so the whole thing confuses me.
And I like sites and comments like what I previously posted because I appreciate the honesty. Just say "good, Zimmerman killed a coon and now we're all safer" because it's better than acting like GZ's actions were justified.
Following someone in a car then chasing them and confronting them. That's fine? Seriously?
omg! beacuse 1 witness today who was a witness that night - 1 of 6 i think, the defense found out she "liked" the justice for trayvon fb - every talking head is about to explode about how the prosecition lost today - even though it is just day 2, and they had crime scene tech who said there was 0 zimmerman dna or any scrapes or bruises on trayvons hands - so the whole beating george described is complete bull - and there was no blood on the side walk where george claimed his head was bashed into, and there was no blood on george where trayvon fell on him after he was shot "n the struggle" (i am basing this on zimmermans desription of what happened) - but the prosecution lost because 1 flippen witness - who wasn't that important, just saw ti figures running - liked trayvon fb - now all is lost and zimmerman is going free - omg these ppl - FFS!!!!
I don't understand, and it breaks my heart, because I can't fathom that much hatred and rage. Where does it come from?? WHY?! I mean, I've had people do really nasty things to me in life. And I STILL can't find anything close to hate in my heart. I feel pity for them, more than anything. I wonder what went so wrong in their lives to foster that kind of negativity. But, negativity saps so much power and energy, and I can't understand how anyone generates it. That page makes me want to cry. Cry in sorrow, at what level human beings can stoop to. Have they no reason to want to reach for the goodness in their souls? Do they even HAVE souls?

17 yrs old. He could have been my child. How many times has my son said "mom, be right back....going to get soda and snacks at 7-11" and we should live in a world where it is safe for our babies to do so. He was a kid. Buying skittles. Fuck, that gets to me. Big time.

DNA was splattered on the concrete, away from said attacker. How does DNA show up on the aggressor if its on the back of the head? MMA style fighting does not always end with bloodshed as you might think and you are implying. Ground pounding, or wrestling is also MMA style of fighting. Grabbing someones head and slamming them to the ground in my opinion qualify that as such.
I told you I was making an attempt at playing Devil's advocate. I suppose I was a shitty one at that.
Ron, I hear what the media is trying to say because everyone wants to come off politically correct. But with the constant barrage of Trayvon's FB post, etc, thinly veiled under the cover of "Look what the mean ole GZ DT said about Trayvon", they are speaking out of both sides if their faces. Kinda like the husband that says "You are my one and only true love and I'll be faithful to you til the day I die.", but he's fucking the wife's best friend in the backyard when she's out and waving at the neighbors while doing it. Then you have the whole Paula Deen thing. Everyone in the media is acting all humpty and sanctimonious, but there isn't a man, woman, or child in the whole United States of America who hasn't at least once in their life said the "N" word, "shit", "damn" or "ass". That's like the saying 98% of men masturbate and 2% lie about it. That's just my observation.

It actually could go both ways. To me there has been too much flip flop with the witness pool to actually get the real story. How many of the actual witnesses really saw what happened and are not afraid to snitch? Perhaps TM felt he was being harassed and had to get his street cred up. Had to be hard core!
