Already, another Trayvon Martin incident has just happened

54. I agree. The guy in TX was not even on his own property. There is something about this that's off.

I'm thinking, but don't know, if the laws in LA are close to those in TX. If the kid had a chance to retreat or was running away, that would be murder, definitely.

I think the case you're speaking of down there was the case of a guy that went out of his house and shot some guys that were not on his property. No way. It was the property that mattered, and he clearly provoked the whole thing, Guilty of murder, that's what the jury found.

There was another case, though, the one of the guy who called police, was told not to engage and did. He did it under the law of protecting the property of his neighbor. After he followed and confronted them, he said he was scared, and shot them.

That was like Z. But he got off.

I agree, there is more to this. It could be that I am lacking in imagination, but I don't see that much of a threat in this case.

Just in the guys mind. That is way too subjective. I hope we don't have a slew of these cases post-Z, but afraid we will.

The guy who shot the people at the gas station in FL is trying for that angle. He claims that the prosecutor wants to placate the AA community over his case. He made his bed, now he can lie down in it. He didn't have to shoot when he could have left.

That's my idea about Z, too.
