u mad

I don't doubt it, my only issue with the whole thing is that he was told not to go after the guy to begin with. I'm not saying Trayvon was some good kid, but dude was unarmed, he wasn't supposed to be going after him and he got his ass beat.

if youre going to get into a physical confrontation w someone, who knows what will happen. if trayvon actually swung first, ive got a lot less sympathy for him.

Unless you are part of the jury, your opinion really don't count. Same with mine. I am glad this is going to trial. The worst thing is that Zimmerman walked free after shooting someone. If I shot someone and claimed self defense, I'd still have to go to trial. This is why now you don't see many protesters in this case any more, all people really wanted was a trial.

Well if you listen to the tape dude talks about following him even though the police chick on the phone is telling him not to. Again, I'm not trying to make Trayvon seem like a good guy, but like M Dogg said there's no way this shouldn't at least be going to trial.

LMAO @ the media making a big deal about the kid having trace amounts of THC in his blood during his death.
I didn't know people still fell for that reefer madness shit from the 30s.
-
Is this news? I would think if they were fighting and he pulled out his gun and shot the kid, it would be because he was losing.

Depends what was said during the confrontation. The kid was being stalked. I know most people on this forum have gotten into fights over a lot less.

Seriously. They automatically interpret that to mean he was actually high at that moment as well.

The problem is most of the "people" didnt look at this objectively. 1. Man folllows person. 2. Person attacks the man following him. 3. Person beats the shit outta that man. 4. The man shoots him to stop the beating.
They didnt look at those facts, they looked at which race did what to who. And if it was opposite, those same "people" would still be complaining. Theyd be saying "oh but what about the stand you ground law?". This case is race personified in this country. The facts so far point to dudes innocence. Doesnt mean he is innoncent, but it does look like it, and that doesnt matter to alotta people because of the race element.

Lol you think this trial will be televised?

Nah no way.
Those arizona 99 cent ice teas are the shit though.

Yes it is news. because its something the media willingly and largely ignored untill they had to report it so this case could fit their ideas of race in america.
As for people getting into fights for less, thats fine and probably true. The point is if you do swing on someone first, and you end up seriously hurt or dead, whos fault is that?

Unprovoked? It's your fault. But there was definitely some provocation here. To what extent, we don't know and hopefully the trial will reveal. Best case for Zimmerman, the provocation was the stalking and chasing after Trayvon. Depending on what was said, or if Zimmerman initiated the fight, its worse.
I thought you didn't care what the media ignores :P

^^he's just trolling and releasing his animosity for the black race online that he can't do in public out in the open like that. Don't put too much stock in it. People always say one thing and have a totally different perspective or emotion behind it. It's the repression of his guilt coming out.

So yes indeed you are mad at these latest revelations. Im sorry to hear that. Please dont let it ruin your day, my brotha.

I dont need to or not to care what the media does to recognize its hypocrisy when it comes to racial matters. Its pretty obvious unless youre complicit in it yourself.

That's dumb.
There was an incident in my country where a guy catches a kid tagging his fence...... chases him and his mate down the road with a kitchen knife..... ends up stabbing him, and the kid ends up dead, he was only 13..... by your logic, it's the kids fault?

That was the one big problem I had with this case. I don't know about every other person. There are idiots on every side and to take sides along racial lines is idiotic to begin with.
Some, like JRome and virtuoso even claim that the whole thing was blown out of proportions to raise racial tensions. Even if that wasn't the goal it seems to work that way just cuz, unfortunately, many people tend to think that way.

If you actually think about it, it isnt dumb. What im saying is if you take a situation to the next level, then what happens in the end could be out of your hands, so youd better be prepared to deal with the consequences.
