Not sure if this is a repost, but I heard nothing about this on the news in my area. There are a lot of claims of a major cover up going on with this.

No news of motive, so I do not know how anyone can come to any conclusion yet.

Given the brothers were just sitting in the parking lot, seems they may have been expecting a meeting?

I thought the same thing about a motive but apparently the sheriff is psychic and stated there was no link to the Zimmerman case, they stated this before they did pick up a suspect in the case.

"Normandy Blvd. Shooting Update - We have had numerous inquiries, blog comments, and Facebook postings about the relationship between the Normandy double homicide last night in the Golden Corral parking lot and the outcome of the George Zimmerman trial. We are confident to say where we are in the investigation that this is not the case at all. There is NO link at all between these cases, nor did we ever suspect one."

Amazing how without concluding the investigation, the sheriff already knows what was in the mind of the killer.

IMO, it could have had to do with it or maybe it did not, but just as in the Zimmerman case.....we need to see all the facts first. Shame in the sheriff for already trying to sway opinions and or facts. JMO of course.

There appears to be some conflicting stories, stating the Zimmerman case had nothing to do with it and that the two brothers were Drug Dealers. Then there is a few sites saying that this is a cover-up by the JAX Police Dept.....I do not know what to believe?

I believe more will die if riots break out. Police will return fire in self defense. It will not be pretty. Riots are not the answer. I lived very near where the Detroit riots were in the 60's and watched them on live TV. If people keep pushing this envelope it will get people killed and not by Z.

What concerns me the most is seeing a greater racial divide brewing...years of work down the drain and if riots break out the effect it will have on people's thoughts and emotions towards it...

Too many race baiters making lots of money off of ensuring racial tensions survive. It will never go away. Too many people and organizations want it to continue.

"We are confident to say where we are in the investigation that this is not the case at all."

May be my english is not so good, but to me this means, at this point in their investigation they are pretty confident that is not the case, so they have not finished their investigation but they know enough to know that it wasn't because of the sticker, this wasnt the sheriff at teh moment of the reporting of the crime saying this, this is the sheriff saying this at a point during the investigation.

Exactly... and the media is just fanning the flames. Anything for additional attention... even negative and destructive hateful attention.
