Did you know the common North American potato is only 2 chromosomes short of being a human being?

No offense, but I'm beginning to think you are more closely related to a common potato with that statement.

Just watching CNN now. They are having a meltdown that, in spite of all their lies, all the times they have distorted the truth on this case, months of race baiting, that in spite of this an innocent man is allowed to go free.

I wonder if this case will get people to stop and think before they assault strangers walking down the sidewalk and viciously beat them as they scream for help?

Anyone know when Zimmerman's civil suit against them and NBC gets underway?

Top three killers of black guys

1)FEMA
2)Pork Chops

3)The ***** Moment.

According to Noted Black Writer Aaron McGruder.
A large percentage of inner city deaths is as a result of drug violence. Legalize drugs, eliminate the problem. But no one cares when blacks die over illegal substances, so whatever. Now, prohibition when whites were killing each other in the streets? We gotta find a way to fix this. Oh, the hypocrisy.

Spare me the "technically that's legal" crap. Pretty much anyone would be on guard if they were being followed in this manner--ESPECIALLY the paranoid right-wing gun nuts.
Being on guard.... Smart.
Escalating the situation ... Not smart.
Even if TM did not start it, at some point he knocked Zim a good one. He didnt need to continue the assault. If he had one ounce of self preservation instinct, he should have backed off when he clearly put Z on his back. Z was no longer a threat.

Sure he has, George Zimmerman is innocent of the crime he was accused of.

The argument is though that it was not like Zimmerman was walking down the street and Martin jumped him by surprise; Zimmerman was following Martin, and some feel that was initiating a conflict with Martin.

But for Zimmerman; it is a strange MO to say Zimmerman intended to kill Martin, but first called the cops.

I still think Zimmerman started it, I think he tried to detain Martin or something, but there is no evidence countering Zimmerman's claims. As they said "better to let 100 guilty off, than lock up 1 innocent person".

And do you wish you lived in South Africa, where blacks reigned and the mixed race "knew their place"?

We KNOW what you would have done. And probably offered to shine his shoes as an apology for forcing him to get them muddy. We're talking about people w/ self-respect enough to not think they need to shuck & jive to convince a random, sketchy person that they aren't guilty of something.

You're another of these people that's created a religion out of GZ words. I don't know why everyone keeps ignoring this, but does it make sense to you that the kids who was a guest in the neighborhood and trying to escape from GZ would instigate a confrontation? That the guy who ignored the police direction and stalked the stranger in the neighborhood did NOTHING but respond to unchecked aggression?

Innocent until proven guilty. A not guilty verdict means Zimmerman is innocent.
