[alp227]

Cenk believes that the verdict will be a huge victory for the gun nuts and jeopardizes public safety.

1. you can pick a fight with anyone, then execute them

THANKS A LOT, GUN HUMPERS

[Iliyah]

2. Zombies

Shot them up

[delrem]

3. totally concise.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

4. This is especially true of the ones pissed off over Obama being in office.

[diverdownjt]

6. As long as they are black of course....

What did you expect from 6 WHITE women.

[iwillalwayswonderwhy]

9. I'm a white woman who lives in Florida

Stereotype much?

Signed,
A white Florida woman disgusted by the verdict.

[heaven05]

16. disingenuous

bullshit. Zimmerman sterootyped(profiled) Young Martin.

[iwillalwayswonderwhy]

22. What?

Did you really not see what I was talking to? Yes, Z stereotyped Trayvon. The poster I was replying to stereotyped white women. One does not negate the other. But I think you knew that.

[heaven05]

23. no

stereotype. I think those women on the jury are racist. I think the judge is a rethug-teaparty racist. The defense team looking for more racist, high profile clients=money, the prosecution, racist incompetents, florida is a state FILLED with racist zimpigs, male and female. I feel sorry for black people in those small mostly white enclaves of zimpig mentality. Be worse than the 18th, 19th, 20th and 21 century for them.

19. I Too Am A White Woman Who Lives In Florida!

I also live in a seriously white area! I'm devastated more than I can say. But what I say means little! TRAGIC!

11. I'm a white woman who lives in Florida. I would have convicted on First Degree Murder given

the same evidence the Sanford jury used to acquit.

My reaction on reading the verdict: "OMYGOD!! FUCK!!!" And my son asked, "What happened. Did he get off?"

I'm just sick over this verdict which declares open season on teenage black boys.

[RebelOne]

29. I am a white woman who used to live in Florida.

I now live in the Atlanta, Georgia area and I was amazed at how little racism I have seen here. I agree with your opinion, and I would also have convicted that asshole on first degree murder.

[Piasladic]

15. I'm a white, Florida woman

who is absolutely heartbroken. Take your prejudices elsewhere.

[Beacool]

17. Imagine this was a case similar to OJ's.

Would you consider it appropriate and not racist to say: What did you expect from 6 BLACK women?

Just saying..........

[xocet]

21. Your comment is both racist and sexist. However, a jury left alone at 3-3. Enjoy your stay. n/t

[enough]

7. Right to the heart of the matter. (nt)

[BlueStreak]

8. THIS was the first post on the Zimmerman trial that was worthy of the DU site

Cenk said it perfectly.

[NoMoreWarNow]

10. I don't trust the jury and justice system, as he does

otherwise, spot on

[Plucketeer]

13. I'm with you

"A jury of my peers"? Six WHITE WOMEN??? I truly believe in gender equality. But these were peers of Zimmerman? How subconciously sympathetic were they for the Martin kid?

[Enthusiast]

12. Cenk nailed it.............nt

[Beacool]

18. Why did they show Trayvon's pic?????

Gee, there was no need to show it. Poor kid, may he rest in peace.

[frankroberts]

20. I think

that it is important to show the picture of Trayvon's body. People should see what dead looks like.

[burrowowl]

24. People should realize what

the consequence of what happens when someone is shot to death.

[fascisthunter]

27. Too bad

[Beacool]

28. What kind of answer is that?

I find showing the pic of his body disrespectful to Trayvon and his family.
