Did they find the people who were inside the car? Did they get search warrants and search those people, and their homes, looking for any weapons?

I just did a quick look for "timelines" on what happened in this case and when it happened, but could find nothing but the usual pics of mourning people, hysterically sobbing women etc. Many of them are undoubtedly justified, but they add nothing to the case.

I haven't found any answers to the above questions, but I've only just started to look.

Anybody know?

I am sure the defense looked high and low for any evidence any of those boys in the car had ever been seen in possession of a shotgun. Was there any evidence any of those boys ever had a shotgun provided in the trial?

by the way, I completely agree with the verdicts. They reached the correct verdict just as the Zimmerman jury reached the correct verdict...

PS. I can't ****ing stand people who play their music loudly when stopped at red lights or in a parking lot, gas station, what-have you. That **** is annoying as hell..

I understand the sentiment, 'mind your own business' though. Personally, I would not have said anything to them, but jesus ****ing christ, be considerate of other people. Don't blare your music like that when you're at a stop light. Sure its your right to do so, but don't be a dick. Its my right to burp and fart whenever and wherever the hell I want, but I don't do it in packed places because that would gross other people out. At best it would be funny, but I still wouldn't do it.

I'm sure they did look, long after the event.

Did the cops look IMMEDIATELY?

No shots were fired from the gun that Dunne supposedly "saw", but he felt the need to fire 10 rounds. There was no evidence that they had a gun. Assuming you are even correct, why didn't they fire back since they already had it out the window?

I agree, but I don't think the jury is being racist, just stupid. I don't get it at all. If you are guilty of attempted murder because you shot into a car with 4 people, why aren't you guilty of murdering the person you actually hit?

In other words, would Dunn have been acquitted had he killed all 4 teenagers? This is exactly what the jury is telling me. He only "attempted" to kill the other 3, but when he did kill Jordan Davis, he wasn't guilty. My head is spinning.

Another Florida racist initiates a confrontation with an unarmed black child, murders him, then lies on the stand and gets away with murder. It seems to me that when you go looking for a fight and find one, you can't use self defense as an excuse for murder.

One thing I cannot understand : how could they establish that he attempted to murder the 3 kids but they did not establish that he murdered Davis ? Or maybe they were deadlocked on 1st degree vs 2nd degree.
Wrong. The charge was attempted murder of THREE people. He will get 20 years for EACH victim - 60 years.
