I don't know why you are engaging in this conversation when you didn't listen to any of the testimony. After listening to every word and reading motions filed, it is very frustrating for people to make comments when you know they don't have the facts.

Some people think this was about race? Some? Are you kidding? Some? This creepy ass cracker knows this was about race, it's just not how the NAACP wants it to be.

Are you profiling?

By now, i've learned that there is only ONE reality.

One guy killed the other guy, and the dead guy can't tell his side of the story. And if you think the living guy is going to tell you the dead guy's story, you're out of your mind.

That's the reality. I don't know anything about this case, and neither do you. Only one man knows what happened because no one else saw anything and he killed the other witness. And there was no evidence telling us anything either way. In that case, there was no choice but to acquit the shooter.

So please, leave it at that and move on.

I was only talking about your remark. It was racist and you wonder why others think it's about race. I don't give a rats ass who calls me a cracker although I have never been called that. And honestly why would I care.

The jury's only job was to determine whether GZ broke the law.

And this is the law - It does not matter who started the altercation, doesn't matter if GZ profiled TM as a young black man in the neighborhood where a string of robberies were committed by young black men, it does not matter whether or not GZ disregarded what the Dispatch told him about getting out of his vehicle, it does not matter that TM was unarmed or even minding his own business.

What matters for the Jury to reach a verdict is - Did GZ feel his life was in danger enough to pull the trigger.

They ruled he was not guilty.

So I will return your advice - leave it at that and move on.

i think George Zimmerman will re-offend. He has a history of violence and anti-social behavior. From the domestic abuse and molestation complaints to getting charged with battery of a police officer to getting kicked out of college because they deemed him a danger to campus. And the most egregious and sinister of acts- killing another human being.

So the probability of him re-offending is high. Maybe now that he's killed he has a thirst for it. He can't possibly be getting his guns back can he??

How interesting. The main folks saying they are tired of hearing about this case are the most active posters on threads involving the case. (Not surprising, this hypocrisy is coming from Zimmerman supporters).

They don't know whether he broke the law or not. They don't know anything. And neither do you.

All they know is that a kid is dead, and nothing else. That's all you know, and that's all i know.
