Jul 2013

must understand that the zpig apologists/logicists have no interest in this kid that was murdered except as some forensic evidence of black threat who brought skittles and tea to a GUN fight. You really are wasting your time trying to reason with certain individuals on this site who just don't want to admit the wrong that was done by this wannabe cop to an UNARMED kid. I agree with you, but I have to be careful because I am emotionally invested in this joke of a trial and the actions and non action of the PD of Sanford fla. This kid was in the morgue for three days before the parents finally found him with no help from PD. He was less than worthless to these people. That told me everything about their understanding of what zpig did. You're really wasting your time with the apologist on this site disguising themselves as people who want a just legal system to work for murderer and victim alike. They have my undying derision. Maybe justice will prevail, yet I don't hold out a lot of hope that it will fall on Trayvon's side.

The fact that racism and bigotry is still in flower can affect how well the justice system works. lumpy Jul 2013 #82

OK, I'll see your point and raise you one DonCoquixote Jul 2013 #138

"Zimmerman did not even have to make bail" is not true Lurks Often Jul 2013 #172

(sigh) sorry, I didn't mean that exactly... dorkzilla Jul 2013 #32

Except the forensic evidence shows TM was on top when shot, showing dominance. dkf Jul 2013 #36

What part of the prosecution's case is in doubt to you? reusrename Jul 2013 #137

So you do think TM was slamming Z to save his own life? dkf Jul 2013 #145

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Skittles Jul 2013 #146

You do realize you've just given Z grounds for self defense? dkf Jul 2013 #147

Both have right to defend themselves. dkf Jul 2013 #152
