I live in this area and I pointed out that the police department has had issues in this area before but no one cared. It's easier to believe that Martin was planning a rash of crimes then to consider we're dealing with a sorry ass police department.
Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson need to speak out and let the country know it is wrong and the Black Panthers are wrong in what they did.
I'm sure they have done so. They are fine, upstanding civil rights leaders, not racist con-men pandering to idiots and spewing hate. There must be a link to where they have condemned the NBPP statements....
ray1945, Based on how inarticulate the new acting Sanford chief is, I do not doubt for a minute the absolute amateurish nature of their pd. I'd have expected better in a rural town of 500, with their police chief.
No they’re not. The New Black Panther party is a radical separatist group and Jackson is a civil rights activist. Race baiting would be the GOP presidential candidates using racial undertones to score political points (i.e. Gingrich & Santorum)
Why would it matter?
What does that have to do with this case?
Obama's economy has a lot of people going back home.
Obama's economy is doing fine. So its okay for a conservative 28 year old, totally fine physically man to be at home living with mommy and daddy but this forum is full of threads and posts blaming liberals and blacks for sucking the system dry.
Phone records have Trayvon on the phone just before his death. Are you suggesting that the cell phone company falsified information to harm Zimmerman's self-defense claim?
I'm sure you read that Trayvon was on the phone and the phone was dropped when the altercation began, so your attempts to minimize this fact don't wash.
Yes - the phone records were verified, he was on the phone with the call dropped right when the fight began. I don't know why people are trying to dispute that fact, as it was easily verified with the cell phone company.
