The soap is back to its fairly modest self.
So in other words ,they responded to customer desires. That doesn't sound like the WHITE producers are deciding anything except to satisfy the customer's demands .Quote:

It wouldn't be that way or it would be less so were it not for the "anything goes" culture cultivated by the left.Quote:

No, the basic TV stations and FOX. That's enough to rattle my chains.Quote:

If this were a white kid shooting up a school everyone would be blaming violent video games and such. I don't see anyone blaming violent TV, movies and music - much less any national outrage - over a black kid shooting a 13 month old white baby in its stroller.Quote:

You also have to give a nod to shows like Red Skelton and ground breaking ones like Sanford and Son as well as All in the Family.Quote:

There seems to be different standards of the stand your ground laws in Florida.
That case is really unfair. I was shocked that it happened in Florida, you expect that in Canada or Britain. It's an obvious double standard, if someone who is poor or a minority defends themselves, prosecutors love to pick on them. If someone is white and a wealthy, prominent member of their community, they won't even be charged. I think everyone should have an equal right to defend themselves. Reminds me of that saying "you're innocent until proven broke."
Doesn't appear to be a different standard. I agree with the judge. They had a means to leave without violence. The getting the gun and coming back is what changed the outcome as far as the law was concerned.Quote:

Is that a rhetorical question? Did you read the Marissa Alexander case?Quote:

According to the judge's order, "there is insufficient evidence that the Defendant reasonably believed deadly force was needed to prevent death or great bodily harm to herself," and that the fact that she came back into the home, instead of leaving out the front or back door "is inconsistent with a person who is in genuine fear for her life."
20 years in prison for firing a warning shot to get rid of an abuser isn't standing your ground, but shooting and killing someone is? Same prosecutor I may add as the Martin case.
Quote:
Alexander's father, Raoul Jenkins, told Crimesider that his daughter had had a licensed gun for years and the two had been to the shooting range together.
"If Marissa wanted to shoot anybody she could," Jenkins says. "But that was not her intent. Her intent was to diffuse the situation without anyone getting hurt or killed."
Angela Corey is a moron who should be disbarred . She had the option of a number of lesser charges ;but decided to vindictively play hardball against Alexander because she refused a plea deal. She prosecuted Zimmerman on strictly political considerations ;bypassed the Grand Jury process ;and went with charges that were almost impossible to prove.
Neither case was/is a stand your ground case. It is absurd to sentence Alexander for 20 years ;but that is a result of silly mandatory sentencing guidelines.
The fact that she could've left is not relevant in my view because the testimony was unclear if she could've left through the garage(which Gray claimed was locked ). So she had to reenter the house to "escape through the back door " . So the real question is to what extent did she feel threatened by Gray ? She had to force her way out of the bathroom just to retrieve her gun. The unallowed evidence was Gray's history of women abuse. This was not a clear cut case by any means . It's he said /she said.
So your saying that since she didn't know what the law was or how to handle herself with a firearm then she deserves a pass? I understand she passed on a plea bargin that would have been much less. The fact that she fired the gun is what lead to her troubles without using it to hit her intended target. Sure 20 years is harsh. But this is something this person created.Quote:

Had Zimmerman stayed in his car and waited for the cops we wouldn't be here so how is that killing not of his making?Quote:

Trains have been killing white people for ages now - where's the outrage!
Has there been some brewing outrage over racist white or "white Hispanic" trains murdering black people?Quote:
