She's Puerto Rican...so the media will probably label her a Swedish Jew.

That juror said the actions of Zimmerman and Martin both led to the teenager's fatal shooting, but that Zimmerman didn't actually break the law.

Uh, Puerto Ricans can be black.

Anyway, the very fact that people can't make up their minds is why Zimmerman was found not guilty. It has to be beyond a reasonable not, not that "well, it's more likely that he did do than he didn't do it."

If she's a feminist and liberal, if she is, then my thoughts are she's a hypocrite.

If a woman (physically = to a man to feminists, therefore they ought join infantry ranks) was being physically attacked Trayvon Martin, where the woman was on her back and on the ground, Trayvon straddled over her, and the woman shot Trayvon she likely would not regard it as murder, but a common sense approach to a "monster."

Any man--even though women are the physical equals or physically stronger, tougher, than men according to feminists--is a monster if he punches a woman in the face asking him where he's going.

We all know women 9 times out of 10 are not the physical equal of men. We know this. That's why we have to problem with women shooting men that are punching them in the face as the man has her grounded.

We assume this is just "boys being boys" when a big guy like Trayvon attacks a grown man like Zimmerman. But not all men are physically equal to one another.

Even some male feminist on this site have said many woman can easily whoop their butts from one street corner to the next, therefore, women ought be given infantry positions to get the chance to riddle foreign teenage boys bodies with bullets. American heroes.

In my view Zimmerman was morally wrong for following Trayvon and essentially provoking the whole incident. And I don't blame Trayvon for punching Zimmerman, nor do I blame Zimmerman for shooting Trayvon. Had Trayvon punched Zimmerman and Zimmerman crawled up into a ball or was beaten unconscious then I would say tactically Trayvon's response proved successful, that is right for his objectives. But given he was shot and died I can only concluded his choice, his response, proved not to be the best one.
