Do us a favor and stay with the trial.
It's very much on topic. Someone suggested that blacks would riot if Zimmerman is found not guilty and how that looks bad in the black community.

Absolutely relevant to the trial (and its outcome). But I can see why you want to change the topic.

Exactly. The only thing they think Zimmerman could have been charged with is littering. Trayvon Martin's life meant nothing to them.

Zimmerman had his head slammed into the sidewalk, you have proof otherwise? The burden is on the state to prove guilt, not for Zimmerman to prove innocence; where is the proof Martin was not responsible for slamming Zimmerman's head?

The police messed up by not getting tests on Zimmerman, that is not Zimmerman's fault, nor can it be held against him.

That small amount of THC is enough to state a person does drugs; a person can get fired for having that amount in them, kicked from the military, or put back in jail if on parole.

It does not matter if anyone knows; point is there was no testing, so it cannot be held against him. If Zimmerman has a prescription, was he on them when this occurred? Is he allowed to possess a firearm and drive while on this drug?

I have no idea, you may be right or wrong, but I did not hear this in court.

Who said he was a cop? Also, the only racism in this case was from Martin's mouth when he referred to Zimmerman as a "cracker"; where is Zimmerman's racist remarks towards Martin?

Have the foam dummy there, straddle it and punch away with that tape on. Then ask them how long they would let the assault continue if they could stop it. IMO, that should be the last thing the defense does, so the jury goes away with that image in their minds.
Hey! No blood on Trayvon's hands.

Too bad the rain didn't wash away all the blood on Zimmerman.

The rain only seems to favor black people.

Zimmerman had blood all over his ridiculous head and hands and gun - most likely he DID pummel himself, I mean from what the evidence shows.

Zimmerman has blood on his hands to this day.

Trayvon's blood.

You seem to think there have been such things. How many were killed? How many homes burned? How many stores looted?

None?

That's what I thought.
So because you didn't witness the riots, they didn't happen? Just an FYI: Google is a big help in learning about these things.

And I won't do your research for you. But continue to live in your bubble of deluded perfection in the white community.

I agree. The most upsetting thing about this whole case for me is how folks are making a mockery of Trayvon's death. No matter how you feel about what happened that night or whether or not you feel Zimmerman is being railroaded, there's no need to attack Trayvon, Rachel Jeantel and/or his parents.

There's no need to make light of his death. He was not a pedophile, mass murderer and/or depraved person. He was a teen with behavioral issues (not a foreign concept with teens), who was killed. No matter the hows and whys, this is a death to be mourned, not mocked.

But I agree with you, those who wish to think ill of black people won't be moved. And while I also hope there are no riots, perhaps the buffoons rioting will collide with the buffoon racists and we can eradicate both from this world.

I'm a wannabee Olympian athlete, but I don't want to give up smoking.

Can I do both?

If I don't give up smoking AND become an Olympian athlete, wouldn't that show that I am a Super Athlete?

I think Zimmerman asked and answered this kind of question to himself.

He chose to be a Super Cop!

Along the same line, this might be why some liberals believe Obama to be a Super President.

That was sarcasm right.

Every life means something. Sadly Trayvon's was being squandered away and taken in by thug culture. Cell phone full of fighting messages and photos of guns, eroding performance in school, drug use, making "lean" from his little 7 Eleven jaunt, calling Zimmerman names, beating a man up to be tough......sadly, the thug lifestyle is what caused his life to end. Quite sad really. The jury should find Zimmerman not guilty....the true criminals are the ones in the black community who perpetuate the thug lifestyle with outcomes like this.

Let's hope the jury sees this.
