It can't be the whole missing supposed shotgun thing right? There's zero evidence supporting a shotgun, and the victim is as clean as a whistle. He's a middle class kid with 2 highly educated doting parents and no record. He had an after school job and no trouble at school. He was a freakin Cosby kid. He was Theo Huxtable. Ditto the other kids in the car. The most they had on one is a charge for being out past curfew. Who thinks those kids had shotguns?

I just don't get it, but I'll wait.
I don't get it either, but sadly I've been a witness to this type of thinking many times. I've heard people call our President a thug many times. I guess if the people on Fox say it, it must be true.

This is a good article I read in the Miami Herald.

What gun? There was NO gun other than the shooters.

State of Florida is getting nuttier by the minute. I don't even want to visit there anymore.

A twelve person jury consisting of Florida state citizens just found a Florida state citizen guilty of four counts of attempted second degree murder and one count of discharge of a firearm into a vehicle.

What about that do you find nutty?

That they didn't find him guilty of murder since he you know did actually did commit murder?

The jury couldn't agree on that charge, so the fact is that he was not convicted of murder.

Unless he was convicted of murder previously, and no one else but yourself knows about it, he did not commit murder.

Well, I do wonder. See below. It would appear to be a no brainer but the Florida jury just couldn't get it together.

The Floridian juror defies belief: they vote to convict on four counts of attempted murder, yet can't reach a verdict for the count where one of those 'attempts' actually succeeded.

How about a link to Fox News calling Obama a thug? Sounds like another clueless Fox whine from the Liberal peanut gallery.

Just my opinion. We will know for sure if they give interviews.
Agreed. I think that most of the jury was in favor of Murder 2 and that there were one or more holdouts for Murder 1.
