    Oops, I did, didn't I?

    And supposedly the prosecutor's roll is 'seeker of the truth'. Utter bullshit of course.

    Remember 70% of the jury thinks the person on trial is guilty simply because he/she was charged.

From what we know of Trayvon's call to his girlfriend which ended just a minute before the shots rang out on the other 911 call, Trayvon was making a good faith effort to flee when Zimmerman caught up with him.

    I certainly don't think this is a case that pro-gun folks should try to hang their hats on, or try to claim "Stand Your Ground" is justified here, or that law may very well be jeopardized indeed.
    I don't think you should hang yuor douche on this thread. That is what I think.

    If Zimmerman is guilty your CCW's, right of self defense and carry firearms will be take a giant step to be worthless. This case might do more for the antigunners then anything Congress has managed in almost 20 years.


    From what I've seen this is clearly the intent.



    They've been losing badly at all levels and needed something to turn the tides back in their favor.


    The media cranked up their propaganda machine with pictures of a little boy and a story of this poor little Skittle eating waif murdered by a racist vigilante.


    They have failed in their attempts at stopping laws giving citizens the right to CCW, castle doctrines, SYG, etc.........

    But this case has given them new ground to stand on.


    And anyone who thinks it's all just coincedence is a fool.

    It's so blatant only a moron would take it for anything else. The knotheads who are perpetuating this are not the least bit interested in "justice" for trayvon. It certainly wasn't spun this way to help us all to "just get along" to quote rotney king.

    I've got a hunch they were gonna play up the race thing even more, but when Zimmerman turned out to be hispanic that blew that slant.


    We can only imagine what kinda of feeding frenzy they would have whipped up if Zimmerman had actually been lily white.

    Accept? Too many black folks involved. OJ was guilty as hell, in my opinion, and was cheered when he walked. Al Sharpton has caused just as many deaths as Zimmerman and he walks and runs his mouth everyday.
    While no one ever listens to me,
    I am constantly being told to be quiet.

    The black community cant accept any verdict and they wont. Anything thing short of death penalty or life in jail is just another excuse to riot and loot. That is the sad fact.

    CCW Laws

    Wait until the hispanic community weighs in? it isnt going to be pretty,they have been extremely quit over this case and his mother is from South America,Peru i believe.When this is over he may have to move there. and as for the coming legal battles with the Brady bunch types over CCW laws well if it wasnt this case it would have been another. Stand your ground laws are for the protection of law abiding citizens against riff-raff and is what they really want bang the door on,so you or I can not legally defend ourselves in the streets at all. thats the true fact.
