Trayvon Martin Case

You mean him calling the guy a F&^ing Cone brings race into the picture.LOL I think Zimmerman caused the problem but I don't think the other guy is the innocent little boy thay mak him out to be.no, not even that, i'm still not sure i can hear him say that. i meant his tone, the way he describes martin, and other comments. as far as how innocent they make martin out to be, i have no idea, probably innocent enough not to be killed

I agree its not 100% clear that's what he said but it goes with the tone he had with 911 and I cannot think of any other word to replace coon. I'm sure the right person can clean up the tape to hear what he did say.

What about Cone?

Over zealous curtain-twitcher meets mouthy teenager.

Drop the race angle.

Race has everything to do with this and if you don't think so you're a fcking moron.


If I'm Trayvon's father I'm playing the lead role in Law Abiding Citizen.

This kid did nothing wrong and apparently you assholes think it's OK to shoot kids because they look suspicious or wear a hoddie and stand up to grown men stalking them.


Yo, close this thread before these morons say more stupid shit that makes no sense.

This. I think race has an awful lot to do with this. I think the definition of racism in this country is night and day from what true racism was back in the early to mid (to late) 1900's. Racism today is more from a profiling standpoint than it is from a "I hate this person because they're black/latino/ect." its a "This person is black/latino/white, ect so I think they're up to no good".

I think EVERYONE has been guilty of this type of profiling at some point.

So do I think this kid got shot because this guy hated black people, no. But if the kid had been a suspicious looking white kid dressed in a golf shirt, I don't think think this happens either.

Only one person can say for sure and that's the shooter.

Calling people '****ing morons' isn't helping the discussion.

Not sure why they say this case is made tougher becuase of the stand your ground law. This law has nothing to do with what happend and does not apply to this situation. The killer followed and persue the person. People against the law want to use this case to have the law changed.

Yeah, I can't even see how it (http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=0700-0799/0776/Sections/0776.013.html) applies in this case even in the most elastic of definitions.

He (the shooter) wasn't threatened, wasn't in his home or car.

It just adds fuel to the weak argument of anti-gun panty-wetters, which is what annoys me the most about the case.
