1. The Dirty Toe-Nail Defense. Boy they are desperate.

10. I hope I never get pulled over in Georgia after a muddy trail run.

Unbelievable...

[Irish_Dem]

11. Yep. They are desperate if this is the best they have.

2. Why aren't the defense wearing hoods and sheets?

3. How Dirty are the McMichaels toenails?

Ahmaud was "jus shufflin' through"

4. Khaki shorts no socks and dirty toe nails, that is against the law now. A friend of mine works

for 911, he got a call one day from a women reporting three black guys in her neighborhood. He asks
if they are breaking some law or something, she says they shouldn't be in this neighborhood and she wanted
them arrested. He had to report it to the police and they stopped and questioned them. They just happened
to be walking through the neighborhood that was breaking the law to her.

5. I have not followed this trial, but has the defense provided proof of burglary in the weeks before

in that neighborhood?

What a despicable woman to even think about adding that "long dirty..." remark, you have to be very sick to even think about that, to use a dehumanizing argument as defense...Piece of SH^&*! of a woman.

6. She is married to one of her law partners

I wonder if the other two are thinking it might be time to disolve the partnership.

7. To avoid being murdered we need to get pedicures?

9. Good Irish humor...I am laughing...She just needed to show her hate and how deplorable she is.

[Irish_Dem]

12. Right, grasping at straws and showing her racism.

[Escurumbele]

8. I nominate that woman as "Racist Scum of the Month"

And in contention for the Year award.
