That Rodney King was a rightious, upstanding citizen who, in no way deserved to get his azz BEAT. Rodney, 6'3", 240LBS, leading police on a 110MPH car chase, having a history of violence, and him not cooperating with police, (while his two friends with him did, and didn't recieve a scratch) him refusing to get into the prone position, and lunging at police twice, had NOTHING to do with him gatting his azz beat down. Forget the fact that the jurors stuck to their verdict, Rodney got beat because he was BLACK, and NO other reason. That is the sick mindset of the racist left. And we are seeing all over again with Zimmerman. Obama and the like =="Forget the facts, let's frame him so we can all go on a murder rampage when he is proven innocent. Kill whitey". That is the sick, evil mind of the racist left.
A black man gets assaulted or killed......but it's the Left who are racist.

Riiiiight..............

I doubt that most, or even many, black people believe that, and believe that most would find that assumption both ignorant and insulting. I believe that most black people are honest, intelligent and want to see justice served and understand the truth of what happened, and have not pre-judged Zimmerman. And that the vast majority have enough respect for themselves and their fellow man not to riot or slaughter innocent people should Zimmerman be found not guilty.

Only the most ignorant and racist believe as you said, IMO. It's just that a select few of them happen to post on C-D from time to time.


And yet, while Zimmerman has been charged with 2nd degree murder for his (claimed self defense) shooting, Daniel Adkin's killer has still not been charged. In fact, the police are still covering up his name. I wonder what they are covering up? //www.city-data.com/forum/polit...-leash-10.html

I really don't understand this argument unless it is based upon tainting the jury pool. Because there is a legal system, the Public's opinion is of little meaning. The Constitution, quite correctly, protects the life, liberty and property of the accused, which I think is sufficient, it doesn't protect them from public opprobrium. Although is seems incredibly stupid to me to continually argue the facts or lack there of at this point in the process. I long decided to avoid arguments surrounding the "facts" until they are presented at trial... then I'll come back for the fun of it.

wow, this is a good one. Did you see the photo that M. Nejame found on Zimmerman's ancestory? Looks like GZ has black folks in his history. Sharpton, this must be a FIRST for him. He calls racism for a black man against black. He's such a jerk! Now... stick foot in mouth!

It's all over my news in Fl. Photo's of all GZ broken nose, back of head, etc. Here's some of the info all you Non-believers were looking for and questioning. Then you were looking for eye-witnesses, he was there to explain what he saw.....Oh....by the way GZ was right! TM looks high...........he was - found it in his blood.

Only thing you will hear TM attorney says from NOW ON is.............GZ shouldn't have left his car. Because that is the only thing left for him to say.............NOTHING ELSE. That isn't going to fly either.

You are correct that Zimmerman is a killer. It is yet to be determined by a court of law if he is a murderer....which you didn't call him.

If I were in Zimmermans shoes, I would apologize to the family because it's still a tragedy and Zimmerman clearly made some mistakes in judgement....obviously getting out of his car being the biggie.

The big question is that enough to warrant a murder conviction? I don't know, it's not clear cut and evidence is still coming out.

I do feel there is clearly enough proof for wrongful death.

It's a shame that so many of you latched onto an opinion so quickly about the case and then dug in regardless of additional information that came out. Zimmerman has clear legal cases against several news networks (ala Richard Jewel) at this point and if found guilty it may be them who wind up paying Zimmerman the money he will wind up owing Trayvons family.

This has been an incredibly disheartening affair to me.
-The news media sucked.
-White racists popped up from under their rocks.
-Black racists popped up from under their rocks.
-People piled on for political reasons, grandstanding and whatnot.

since when does protecting your life label one as a killer? that's like saying rape victims who shoot their attackers are considered killers. what i see here is someone trying to justify their arrogance towards what has already been proven them to be wrong.

getting out of a car does not make one an aggressor.

and yes, there is clearly enough proof of wrong doing. another druggy was attacking an innocent carry concealed victim and got owned.

The fact that you only care about the dead teen because he was black and have taken the position that the person on trial is guilty even though he's a long way from a conviction speaks even louder about yours. It's called ethnocentric racism.....

Really? What race am I? What racial biases do I show?

And what is the "truth" in your view?


All too well, which is why I am glad they finally arrested George Zimmerman.

I didn't say he was convicted of anything yet - just that he killed Trayvon. Do you dispute this?
You call him a murderer but then say:

Thanks for posting. I really and truly do enjoy laughing at you. I look forward to your "you're a racist" reply. It's sure to be even funnier than your other posts have been so far.
