They should be locked up and they are locked up. That's why they're not news. Now contrast with Zimmerman. Got it?? That's why Zimmerman IS news.

Re: 17yr old black kid shot and killed for walking in white suburbia?
All social ills and disenfranchising people aren't quite the same thing, but I guess they might very well go hand in hand. The Rockefellers have quite a history of ruthless monopolistic practices. Or so you see them as model philanthropists?
And I don't know. Did the Rockefeller sisters control Standard Oil?
I'm talking about families like the Harrimans, the Dulleses, the Bushes, etc. You know.

Re: 17yr old black kid shot and killed for walking in white suburbia?
?
I have no "thesis".
You want to talk "separate thoughts"? What was his thesis? That he feels disenfranchised due to things like affirmative action, so he's blaming Al Sharpton? That black people strolling around outside of gated communities are most likely up to no good? Well I'm sorry, but that's just insane. And Al Sharpton is just reacting to the same sketchy story of Zimmerman's that most people are, besides you dumb white trash guys.
Ask this "mild cigar" guy to make some sense. I was just giving him a reality check because the guy's obviously a raving lunatic. He can't blame Al Sharpton for him being a paranoid white trash loser. Sorry. Black people are most certainly allowed to wear hoodies and walk on public streets. And if that doesn't make perfect sense to you two jackasses, you're both pretty stupid.

Re: zimmerman better not speak no more ,he getting caught in a web of lies
TOP POST VERY IMPORTANT!
The voice heard crying for help on a 911 call just before Trayvon Martin was shot to death was not that of George Zimmerman, according to two forensic voice identification experts, one of whom told MSNBC on Sunday that he believes the evidence is strong enough to use in court.
"The tests concluded that it's not the voice of Mr. Zimmerman," Tom Owen, of Owen Forensic Services LLC and chair emeritus for the American Board of Recorded Evidence, told MSNBC.
Asked if he thought such tests would be admissible in court, Owen said "yes" and noted he had recently used similar testing in testimony at a Connecticut murder case that involved 911 call.
The conclusions of Owen and another audio expert were first reported by the Orlando Sentinel on Saturday.
Zimmerman told police that he screamed for help during his confrontation with Martin, 17. He claims the shooting was self-defense.
The 911 call, reposted in this YouTube clip, came on the night of Feb. 26 from a woman who reported someone crying out for help in a gated community in Sanford, Fla.
In the recording of her phone call, panicked cries and a gunshot are heard.

Re: 17yr old black kid shot and killed for walking in white suburbia?
My argument in here has nothing to do with rich vs poor, any other lame attemppt at political interjection to change the subject, forensics, or racial profiling. I'm just trying to clarify the distinction between defense & aggression. That distinction's getting blurred more & more. It's obvious just by reading this thread. I don't want to see a time where self preservation ceases to be a viable defense. That's where we're headed with all this silliness. We're creating an amoral society in the name of political expedience. That's unacceptable.
As for "faith in the system", that went out the window a while ago. At least as far as this case is concerned. This incident happened a month ago or more. The local authorities had already shrugged it off. If the parents hadn't managed to turn this into a national cause celeb, that's where it would have stayed. It's hard to fault them for being pissed off. Sometimes this is what it takes to get the system to do its job.
Now I have a questioon on the details of the altercation. I've obnly heard pieces of the 911 recording, but it would seem that the phone was on throughout the whole incident, right up through the cries for help. How about the gunshots? Were they recorded? If so, what was the duration between them?

Re: 17yr old black kid shot and killed for walking in white suburbia?
The incident involving the two British tourists was of course widely covered here, the person responsible for the shooting, Shawn Tyson, was not part of a neighbourhood watch team but a 16-year old who had already been involved in a shooting incident and was only out of custody because of a foul-up in the Florida/Sarasota court system. Tyson acted alone but after boasting about what he had done, a friend of his testified against him in court.
Thw curious thing about yourdaddy's post, is that even when the facts, not disputed, are presented in court, we still get distortions, like the idea there were two people, it was a neighbourhgood watch team -what hope is there for 'the truth' about the Zimmerman-Martin case? One shot? Two Shots? A attacked B, B attacked A, and so on. Maybe it will never end, like the Kennedy Assassination, or who did kill Edina Watkins?
