1. You make me sick

An innocent child was killed by some fool with a gun, and you think this is some kinda game

[hlthe2b]

9. ^^this^^

To make so light of the death of a young unarmed, innocent teen and those seeking justice--

The poster in question may sincerely hold these views, for which I am repulsed, but necessarily accepting; but, if they are being sent here to disrupt, I hope it catches up with them.

[suffragette]

35. ^^^THIS^^^

hlthe2b,
I couldn't agree with you more.

[Uzair]

25. Did I dispute that an innocent child was killed?

But guess what? A man is on trial for his life, all because people who can't accept facts push for a witch hunt. This is a tragedy all around because of a jackass with a gun. But nobody wants to talk about that aspect of it. It's all about putting Zimmerman in prison for the rest of his life to satisfy some twisted revenge fantasy.

Who are the ones who are treating this like some kind of game?

30. Seems like you have more sympathy for a murderer than the murdered.

[Cooley Hurd]

37. He's not up for the death penalty, so you can stow the hyperbole...

He pursued someone because of how he looked - i.e. he profiled Trayvon - against the advice of the law enforcement professional he was speaking to on the phone. Had he followed the advice of the law enforcement professional, he would NOT be on trial today and Trayvon Martin would be alive.

He pursued Travon with malice, as per the telephone conversation he had with the law enforcement professional. And he killed him.

THAT is why he has been charged with 2nd degree murder.

[Benton D Struckcheon]

43. One. He's not on trial for his life.

Two, unless there's some weirdness in FL law, they can still let the jury find him guilty of manslaughter, which is what I have all along thought the prosecutor was really after. They just made it 2nd degree murder because you always go into a negotiation with your max position, not the one you want to end up with.

[noiretextatique]

47. he is on trial because he killed an unarmed teenager

and his story doesn't add up. what would you suggest we do: give him a medal?

[hrmjustin]

2. Your still here?

[hrmjustin]

5. Wow you went from 1-77 posts very quickly.

[hrmjustin]

23. Just commenting that it was quick.

[Cooley Hurd]

38. Must have a Ferrari for a computer...

[hrmjustin]

42. LOL I really should not talk because I post a lot.

[Cooley Hurd]

49. Not like this...

[bravenak]

4. Lol.

Yeah ok.

[senseandsensibility]

6. Fan club is a sarcastic way to refer to people

who want justice for Trayvon. It's obvious what you want.

[Uzair]

29. And how about the people using "Zimmerman fan club"?

It cuts both ways, my friends.

[noiretextatique]

50. it is not the same...one person, the unarmed one, is dead

the other person, the armed one, is alive, and telling a tale that a lot of people don't buy.

[Duer 157099]

7. I just watched John Good's testimony and I think you are exactly wrong

This eyewitness came outside WHILE the fight was ongoing, made his presence known by telling them to "cut it out" or something, and SAID HE WAS CALLING 911.

At that point, GZ KNOWS the police are on their way, both from his own call and now this neighbor. And yet, he STILL shoots the kid.

I think this is devastating testimony for the defense, whether they realize it yet or not.

ETA: I'll go further, much further, and state that I thing GZ pulled the gun out and shot TM precisely BECAUSE he knew the police were on their way and he had to act fast if he didn't "want this one to get away." And by "get away" I mean "get away alive."

I hope the prosecution really nails this point home in closing.

[Travis_0004]

16. If he was getting beat up, and the police are 5 minutes away, that doesn't do a lot of good.

[Duer 157099]

28. Yeah, but to a logical person, it should ALSO mean that he knew TM heard that 911 was being called

and if someone is "going to kill you" usually knowing that the police have been called, that USUALLY will stop the effort.

Unless you are GZ, in which case it just accelerates the murder, so it cannot be prevented.

That's how I see it.

[ksoze]

27. Wrong

He said, "'It looked like a tussle," Good said. "I could only see one person. At one point, I yelled out, 'What's going on? Stop it,' I believe.

He then went back into the house and called 911 then hearing the shot.

[Duer 157099]

32. Good said that when he told them to stop, that's when GZ started yelling for help

Which means, GZ knew Good saw what was happening. Which also should impeach GZ's testimony about "I cried for help and nobody came." Good's testimony was that GZ ONLY STARTED calling for help AFTER he made his presence known.

[ksoze]

40. Wrong Again

TRANSCRIPT: So I open my door. It was a black man with a black hoodie on top of the other, either a white guy or now I found out I think it was a Hispanic guy with a red sweatshirt on the ground yelling out help!

45. Keep reading. You'll find it. n/t

8. Not looking good for you.

[warrior1]

10. Throwing this thread into my trashcan

[Scootaloo]

11. Oh look, another DU'er demonizing the victim.

"Fan club" indeed.

[alcibiades_mystery]

13. "Trayvon fan club"

"Trayvon" no doubt refers to the person who was shot and killed in the dead of night. Nice, there, Uzair. Real nice.

Ooof.

Welcome to DU.

[PoliticAverse]

14. "had the prosecution actually charged Zimmerman correctly"

The Jury is allowed to consider the lessor charge of manslaughter in Florida.

[notadmblnd]

15. Your posts are pathetic

smh

[OKNancy]

17. I'm pretty sure the jury can decide on it's own to reduce the charge

that is what a talking head said. Don't know if they were correct or not though.

[Just Saying]

19. I'm a fan of justice.

I'm a fan of responsible gun ownership.

I'm a fan of kids of any race being able to walk to the store and back safely.

I'm a fan of holding vigilantes responsible.

I'm a fan of respecting human life more than making snide comments about a murdered kid.

[Mr.Bill]

20. Count me as a member of the "fan club."

We'll call it The Unarmed Kids Who Get Killed By Wanna Be Cop Thugs fan club.

[CakeGrrl]

21. Are you going to go into a depression if Zimmerman gets Murder?

Sounds like a possibility.

Killing unarmed kids better get a murder rap. Zimmerman should have kept his profiling ass in his car.

[npk]

22. This post is Flamebait

Like most of your posts.

[all american girl]

24. Do you think you could possibly remember that a teen age kid was murdered

An his only crime was walking home, in the rain at 7:00 at night. He was talking on the phone, carrying snacks. A kid died.

Thing I find funny about that dude's testimony is that, I think it was stated, that every time he gave a statement, he turned up the language...the punching got more violent-MMA. When Trayvon Martin's friend testimony "changed" (she added "get off" I think) everyone jumped all over her ass....Why?

And again, A KID DIED!!!!!

[elehhhhna]

26. fuckoff, Mister Subtle.

[tabasco]

31. It's really not looking good for you

You have to go through your entire life being a dumbass.

Sucks to be you.

[TransitJohn]

33. "Fan Club"

WTF? You're on the wrong forum, buddy.

[Texasgal]

34. What a dumb fucking OP !!

There is no "Fan Club" this about justice!

[noiretextatique]

36. the guy has changed his tory several times and now admits

he did not see punches thrown. totally unreliable witness.

[NYC_SKP]

39. OMG, You again???

Second degree, dude.

[noiretextatique]

41. another inflammatory hit and run post by you

i am sure you are just an impartial observer of this trial

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

44. You just showed your hood and sheet (n/m)

[kestrel91316]

46. Gloating over the murder of a defenseless child is unseemly. Enjoy your stay.

[maddezmom]

48. Disgusting post
