    I know. What was he thinking?? Right ?


    If they had indetified who it was at the door then I wouldn't be giving it a second thought. But the fact that they didn't do that and furthermore its not policy to do that innocent people are going to die.

    More and continuing news. Looks like some decisions were made in court today and the trial is expected to move forward around June 10th.

    Read about it here. Both articles are pretty much the same just different sources.

    Kangaroo court. There is no way that Zimmerman will be allowed to be acquitted .the fix is in,

    ORLANDO, Fla.: Lawyer: Zimmerman prosecutor withheld evidence - Trayvon Martin - MiamiHerald.com

    Isn't withholding evidence an obstruction of justice ? On Trayvon's cell phone is a video he took of his 2 friends giving a beat down to a homeless man.

    The courts will rule on the legalities, and Zimmerman can raise cash from it for his lawyers.

    It shows he isn't that angelic young man that the press tried to feed to us. It lends credence to Zimmerman's claim that he shot in self defense.

    Yeah, the young fool had no right to confront his stalker. It cost him his life. He profiled a young kid and stepped over his authority killed his victim. Case closed.

    Hunting season for young black guys is open for white guys who have a right to bear arms. The right wing message is loud and clear. The kid was no angel, but neither was his killer.

    Hello again,

    So, no matter HOW this trial turns out, I'm NOT going to go out and destroy a few cars. But, I have the feeling that some people will. Do you have that feeling too?

    Im not so sure. I think its mostly going to depend on how the media shows it. Im not going to make bets its not going to happen but this isn't as cut and dry as some are trying to push it. I believe the evidence will speak for itself.

    I sure wouldn't want to be a juror in this case, with most crimes in the news, I usually know which side I'm on by the end of the trial, for example I think O.J. Casey Anthony and Jodi Arias were guilty, but with this case I just don't know. Both Zimmerman and Martin may have been in the wrong, and it seems impossible to know who assaulted who first. It also appears that Martin wasn't as clean cut as his family portrays him, although the jury won't be allowed to hear details about his past.

    Well now that the trial is over and the verdict in. We will be starting on stage 2 of this fiasco. I see the many groups including the NAACP calling for charges against Zimmerman for "racial profiling".

    I guess not guilty isn't something they can tolerate. After all the media is trying to do to fuel the fire of race.

    Unlike them I defer to the jury. Seriously, Zimmerman had the deck stacked against him with the media, the race baiters like Sharpton, the NAACP, the DoJ and the president himself leading the way and they couldn't justify a conviction. It was a tragedy for sure but America is not about appeasing a segment of society and getting a preferred outcome, that isn't justice.

    The criminal trail is over but the debate will rage on as racial profiling continues to be a hot topic in to many areas of the law and behavior. The debate is important because there are just to many similar cases that never receive the attention that this one did.

    So you bought into the meme that this was a "white" guy profiling a black kid?

    Odds are that the number of shootings this weekend in Chi-town will rival the Valentine's Day Massacre... in fact every weekend that is so.
