89. Gee, I Could Probably Holler Out

Sat Jul 6, 2013, 08:49 PM

Jul 2013

my door to you. We bought 5 acres of land in North Port, really want to sell, BUT! So I'm in between Venice & Osprey on the Gulf side. I "like" where I live, a small quiet community but politically I live in the wrong place. Amazingly, just right around me there are more progressive/liberal minded people than most of the rest of this area. Weird, but true. I've lived here a long time and have good friendly neighbors. I'm a Boomer, so I could probably your grandmother too, but not a normal type. I think young, and a little crazy at times. I'm fortunate to have my kids and grand kids living very, very close. We have very good times together.

But you DO know what I'm saying. Very white bread!

And I know where you're talking about. I get upset when I hear about any animal or mammal dying... total MUSH! Very heartbreaking.

Yes, like the Casey Anthony case that preceeded it, truedelphi Jul 2013 #4

in Casey Anthony's case the jury sympathized her with and liked her Lawyer Baez JI7 Jul 2013 #10

Your point is a very valid point. truedelphi Jul 2013 #81

I kind of disagree ... 1StrongBlackMan Jul 2013 #20

Zimmerman walks RGR375 Jul 2013 #70

You can't appeal a not guilty verdict Finnmccool Jul 2013 #8

The defendant can appeal a guilty verdict DemocratSinceBirth Jul 2013 #15

No they didn't RGR375 Jul 2013 #50

No they didn't. GZ. had numerous. lies Finnmccool Jul 2013 #87

i would be ok with manslaughter as long as he is behind bars for a long time JI7 Jul 2013 #9

I'd take it too. Little Star Jul 2013 #35

That's a pretty high hurdle, though ... 1StrongBlackMan Jul 2013 #30

But then he isn't deliberately lying Motown_Johnny Jul 2013 #33

For 2nd degree murder, depravity of mind must be proved. Kablooie Jul 2013 #29

It is at the moment the act is taken. Motown_Johnny Jul 2013 #37

I do not agree with your view RGR375 Jul 2013 #45

It will be most interesting if Z is "over-convicted," for he immediately "over-convicted" Trayvon. WinkyDink Jul 2013 #60

I agree also gopiscrap Jul 2013 #69

Just remember RGR375 Jul 2013 #71
