Chico23231 07-09-2013, 09:24 AM I dont think they will be riots, but I believe there will be protests and deservedly so if Zim is found innocent on all charges. LA riots were completely a different thing. There werent just a few bad apples in the LAPD, most of the police officers were criminals with badges under a culture of corrupt that spread way beyond just the LAPD.
Why should there be protests? Well most people think you should not be able to shoot an unarmed child even if you are getting beat up in an arguement you provoked.

'Unarmed child'. Also referred to as 'the assailant'.
RedskinRat 07-09-2013, 10:07 AM There is no shame in enlightenment, there is in ignorance and malice.
Which you've shown in abundance.
I am taking bets on zimmerman getting convicted of at least manslaughter...you in?
Zimmerman is up for 2nd degree murder. I will bet you $1,000 (to be paid to my charity (http://www.kintera.org/faf/home/default.asp?ievent=1070058) of choice, when I win) that he doesn't get convicted of 2nd degree murder.
I will also add the rider that the loser (You, saden1) has to use the following in their sig:
Hysterical bed wetter
You can pick a sig for me in the unlikely event that I lose.
This will remain in place for the entirety of this football season.

Was he committing a crime? Fact: No
Was he being harrassed by an unknown, creepy, armed man who hold zero authority over him? Fact: Yes
RedskinRat 07-09-2013, 10:30 AM Was he committing a crime? Fact: No
Right up to the point where he got physical with Zimmerman, no, he was not. Once he assaulted Zimmerman, yes. FACT.
Was he being harrassed by an unknown, creepy, armed man who hold zero authority over him? Fact: Yes
He was being followed, yes. Harassed? We haven't had evidence he felt threatened.
Martin didn't know Zimmerman was armed, didn't know Zimmerman had no authority. What was preventing Martin from running back to the apartment he was watching TV at? Nothing. He chose, inadvisedly, to confront Zimmerman. FACT.
Creepy? WTF does that have to do with anything?

The way the PD handled the event was appalling. At the very least Zimmerman should have been arrested on the suspicion of murder.
Most people are too apathetic to riot. I can't imagine a situation where we (the silent majority) would show the Government our displeasure if it took more than a mouse click.

Sorry look up the def of harrassed. Talking about creepy wasn't it not Marting who used a racial slur. If it was the other way around thats all we would hearing about.
Chico23231 07-09-2013, 10:43 AM Hey fight or flight response to someone armed who coulda been trying to rob him(trayvon). Trayvon shouldnt have done it, it was quick response to an unnormal situation. Remember Trayvon is dead he didnt chance to collect the facts after the incident.
I know its a novel concept to some, but black kids can be freaked out by old white guys following them. I guess the more accepted way of thinking is a young skittle toting child-thug Trayvon causing old white ladies to grip their purses a little tighter as he passes. Thats not the case here, and where the young thug totes skittles, the creepy coward Zim totes a pistol.
We good if the picture was vise versa? We good if thuged out, armed, Trayvon asking Zim what he up too and Zim has the skittles? Justice would be blind and impartial? Yeah, not in this country.

You're going to have to use punctuation and better grammar for us to make sense of what you're saying.

Good, we're getting somewhere. It's Martin's poor decision that led to his death.
Remember Trayvon is dead he didnt chance to collect the facts after the incident.

Aaaaand, there goes your credibility. You're a bigot and you don't even know it.

Apparently it only counts when it suits the purposes of race baiters.
This case has been worked so hard by the media I'm not surprised that some easily influenced fools are being led to a conclusion that the facts don't support.
