Probably within the hour.
And in those threads, we'd probably have posts from several regulars here talking about "Holder's people," and how they wished that one of those "animals" would try something like that against them because then they'd be sorry. Of course, they're really just wishing for an opportunity to shoot a black guy and get away with it.

I don't engage in speculation if such an event occurs we can discuss it then.

Just another thug killed for being a thug. Move along. The media embarrasses itself by creating another "Tawana Brawley" case.

Witness: Martin attacked Zimmerman (http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/dpp/news/state/witness-martin-attacked-zimmerman-03232012 - broken link)
This is nothing like the Tawana Brawley case....Sure, they are trying to milk the race card as far as it can go...But there is a definite problem because Zimmerman admitted to killing Martin, there was a clear witness and Zimmerman hasn't been arrested. Tawana Brawley went missing for a couple days and said some white guys dragged her into the woods and raped her, no witnesses, nothing matched up... Big difference...

This looks like it might be a recent pic. Not seeing much difference. My (black) nephew is 17 and he has a baby face also.

Right. And why not? Is it because nobody cares? Or because it's such a common occurrence that nobody notices anymore?

Pretty much. And of course it would be proof and evidence why they have a "real reason" to hate "the blacks" because they are "violent and a bunch of welfare queens" because white people never ever use guns or apply for welfare.

I think every time a Black person does something bad, 100 racists are born and 1,000 racists grasp onto the individual's actions as a example of what all black people--yep, every single last one do them--do, to justify their prejudice even more.

When a white person dies, it makes the news. When a black person dies, unless they're Whitney Houston, no one cares.

Personally, other than this picture and the one someone posted of him in shorts I haven't seen a picture of him. The picture doesn't matter. The facts do.

The "stand your ground" law is not the issue here since it does not apply. Zimmerman lost that defense the second he stepped out of the safety of his truck to pursue the kid.

It may be argued that the law may apply since it is now being reported that Zimmerman was attached by the kid and broke his nose according to a witness.
