17yr old black kid shot and killed for walking in white suburbia?

The latest headline from the Orlando Sentinel:

Police: Zimmerman says Trayvon decked him with one blow, then began hammering his head

It looks like once again Al Sharpton and the race hustlers are trying to make fools of all of us, and lynch an innocent man in the process.

The British seem to afford too many "rights" to Thugs. Once again as the London riots demonstrate the police often cant's be everywhere at once, and you need to be able to protect yourself, your family and your business. This is a matter is civilization being willing to protect itself against the barbarians. We will get into big trouble when we start trying to buy them off (the dole) rather than standing up to them and demanding civilized behavior.

Stop violence by arming everyone? You're a moron.

Dead men tell no tales.

Zimmerman is a PUSSY. That's why he's rolling around in his SUV with a loaded 9mm.

I wish I could have seen Zimmerman's fat ass roll up on 140#, 17 year old Trayvon talking shit like he was a police officer and see him get swung on.lol

If you follow someone in your car and the person you're following doesn't know you AND sees that you're following him, then you get out of your car and try to confront that person, afterwards your ass getting swung is....SELF DEFENSE.

Good to know all these law-abiding citizens on HA would allow themselves to be followed by an unknown car, have the driver of that vehicle get out and question you for no reason since he's not a cop, and then try to tell you he wants to detain you until law enforcement arrives, and I guess some of you would willingly comply.

Stupid.

Pointing out racism isn't a 'hustle'.
As of right now the only hustle going on is on those people who think Trayvon wasn't racially profiled in the first place because he was Black.

Well said, that man.

Yes, I am seriously suggesting that if someone is taking you hard earned property without your permission that you are allowed to use physical force to prevent them doing such (including the use of a firearm).

That's fine. But then beware that you are saying that material goods are worth more than human life. So the GOP has to stop claiming they're the pro-life party.

Zimmerman should face justice, he wasn't suppose to cary a gun, i think as a neighborhood watch you could have called the cops to arise suspicion, shooting the kid in a suburban hood, when your not suppose to even be carrying a gun is suspicious criminal intent.

I think last summers riots in London demonstrate what happens when you deny law abiding citizens guns and tell them that they can't defend themselves or their property. Look what happened when the police become overwhelmed. The law abiding citizen is left to the tender mercy of thugs.

At least here in America, I'm able to defend myself and my business from rioters. If someone tries to burn down or steal my property they will be shot. That is the essence of stand your ground laws, that the law abiding citizen should not have to run away from criminals.

There were lots of lessons to be learned from thee riots including the need for the Police to respond quickly with a large show of force, but there were 5 very unfortunate deaths. If it was the USA, and guns can be owned by both sides, then how many deaths would there have been?

you've never heard carry a big stick?

[onmyknees]

What part of the 911 responder call of don't pursue did you not understand? Had Zimmerman NOT pursued like he was told not to do then none of this shit would've happened.

I was waiting for someone to make that point. Recall several months ago when the OWS students were told by police to move or they'd be pepper sprayed ? That was a direct order....Well they didn't move and if I recall they were roundly cheered here for disobeying the police. So in some cases we're to pay no mind to the police, and other orders should be adhered to? Interesting dichotomy.

Facts be damned now, If Zimmerman doesn't do hard time, there will be riots in the streets.
