Oh, spare me your ".....prayers for the Martin family ".....sanctimonious drivel. You don't give a shit about them. You guys make me want to vomit. That kid was killed for no good reason and YOU DON'T CARE.

Come on civil lawsuit! There still might be some justice for the family. Make him pay for the rest of his life I say.

Civil lawsuits can go both ways.

"Heidi" redux?

While I'm not much of a fan of watching grown men standing around in their pajamas chewing tobacco, I can appreciate your disgust.

Reposting my comment from Audiokarma Off Topic Forum:

Quote:
I don't know what happened during the confrontation (only Zimmerman knows that), but I do know that if (a) he hadn't decided to carry a weapon in violation of the neighborhood watch rules and (b) hadn't decided to follow and confront Travon Martin (in direct contradiction to what the 911 operator advised / ordered him to do), Travon would still be alive today. Zimmerman escalated the situation when he made the choice to follow and confront Martin - the fact that he was purportedly getting his ass kicked (which, IMHO, was Martin exercising his right to self-defense) as a result was not an excuse to kill Martin.

Well, I guess I saw it coming. There is that one shadow of doubt and that's all it takes.

But, it still makes me angry because I firmly believe it sends a very dangerous message. The precedent it sets makes it far too easy for someone to get away with murder, now.

This might be the end of this trial, but another fight has only just begun because of it. Our legal system was set up to protect citizens from vigilante justice, not subject them to it.
