Because he didn't murder the kid, he killed him.

And if he did murder him, there was no proof.

Does Florida have a secession petition up on Whitehouse.gov?

Doing just fine Bob and you? Figured some of you might be upset about that so
thought I would check in. I doubt Zimmerman set out to murder a black kid or
he never would have called 911. He was a dumbass that was his getting his
ass whooped and he shot him. I think he would have shot anyone that jumped
him. The whole deal was screwed up and never should have been aired on the
news. It's drama and CNN is cashing a check on it.

Doin' alright, Jack. Still tossin' brickbats around here. I'm not all that surprised by the verdict, it is Florida after all. Maybe Zippy'll trip over a gator and fall in a swamp? It's a bitch ain't it that a punk like Zimmerman can get away with plugging a kid and walk, scott free?

Oh well, that gator and skeeter infested hellhole will be underwater in 50 years. If I was younger I would invest in glass bottom boats to show the touristas what a junkpile Miami was.

I could care less about Florida. It's just a tourist trap for leather backed Yankees
with ugly assed old ladies and funny looking purse dogs.

Can't argue with that, man. Key West was a kick ass town back in the seventies, you should've checked it out. They even had a bar named Jack's.

Did anyone hear juror B37 on CNN last night?

It was rather frightening to hear her.

She basically said they though Zimmerman was a blockhead but the black boy had no right to fight back.

Race had nothing to do with Zim targeting Trayvon! None. She felt he always calling police showed that even though he NEVER called about anyone but black kids/men.

What was most astounding was that she felt she knew exactly what happened. She took Zim's story word for word as fact.

She felt Zim feared for his life implying that any coward can kill anyone they choose. I would have hoped fear for ones life would have to be reasonable.

She said SYG gave him a right to defend himself!!!!!! SYG was never part of this case!!!!

Yet, never considered that Trayvon was stranding his ground when he and Zim found themselves staring at each other.

She said 3 of the jurors wanted him convicted of something because he caused it but felt the law had no option.

Long story short, they believed every word the defense said. Understandable if you are not intellectually curious as the prosecution was a big part of the defense! basically Zim was not prosecuted at all.

Seems it might be that the forceful personalities, on the jury (less cerebral hence their stead fast convictions) overpowered the more considered personalities on the jury.

To say race had nothing to do with Zim's profiling is astounding.

You are correct.

The jury felt at 17 year old child was justifiably killed because he fought back against a coward with a gun.

I can see why you and other gun lovers are thrilled that this child killer got off. It pretty much put you (gun owners) in charge of all us non gun owners with the threat of death if we do not comply to your wishes at any given time.

You know who the "winner" is here? The NRA.

For the first time in my life I am looking into buying a gun as a direct result of this trial. What you don't understand is that I am arming myself because of YOU. Not the big bad black man. It is YOU that is the threat.


*The use of the word YOU is not meant to target Hatchet nor anyone here. If you identify with the NRA guns makes might, might makes right creed, then I do you mean you, in non personal terms.
