It's not a pissing contest. I said in an earlier post that the race baiting would send a call out the the racists on BOTH SIDES. Or do you only care when it's against "your side"?

I fail to see the problem. If any citizen or group of citizens are concerned about police ineptitude, lack of concern, or ignoring a criminal statute the have every right AND responsibility to he heard.

I was referring the the MSM's race baiting to get higher ratings. Are you admitting to being a race baiter?

It's part of every training, including Neighborhood Watch groups.
I don't think Zimmerman expected, nor was prepared for, a confrontation. I think he figured that since TM ran, he would check to see which way he ran to report it to the police when they arrived.

Well to no surprise it sounds as if a lot of folks are tossing conspiracy theories around rather than just admit that they might have been wrong about this whole thing.

Seriously, is it that difficult to admit that things might have gone the way that Zimmerman described them?

I'm completely impartial to this, but when neither the feds, the state or the local PD are able to find anything else this far into it in order to even make a simple arrest, let alone an idictment or charge...then whether you agree or not...it would have to cast atleast some doubt as to whether trayvon was completely innocent in all of this.

Are you admitting to trolling? Because of all the informational post that I have written I have yet to read quoting any of them?

I never said you were a race baiter, I posted saying that I hope the race baiters are happy, and you replied:

I didn't say it, you did. I posted previously that all the race baiting the MSM is doing is stirring up racial divide and will cause all the extremists to come out of the woodwork and take action. I posted a link to an example of that. How exactly is that trolling?

Debunked.

The original source has updated their story:

Quote:
UPDATE: The Sanford Police Department says it has no evidence of neo-Nazis in the area. "We have not seen any neo-Nazis on patrol nor have we had any reports of them," Sgt. David Morgenstern says. He adds there have been no signs of the New Black Panther Party either.

Oh, balderdash. Nobody is saying he deserved to be murdered, which he wasn't. He was killed in self defense.

They (including me) are saying he isn't the squeaky clean, cutsie little kid portrayed in 5 year old pictures.

He was well on his way to becoming a thug.
