I fear that what this whole show--and yes, it has become simply that, it seems--proves is that the law is not supreme, but rather has been subjugated by popular opinion and political expediency. In other words, you or I can go out and act completely within the law and our constitutional rights, yet through the machinations of evil men we can still have our entire lives taken away from us as George Zimmerman no doubt has. Any hope that the rule of just law can somehow be restored peacefully--through voting or other means--is fanciful.

I agree! These trumped up charges will be dropped! This Florida prosecutor is one smart lady and comes out of all this smelling like roses!

Are civil rights something that is exclusive to black people or are Mexicans included in civil rights as well? Point being that we have a situation here where potentially a black or a Mexican was going to lose their civil rights.
Civil rights laws were designed during the 1960's so that the Feds would have open season go after whitey in the South whenever they felt need-be. And as payback for chattel slavery and Jim Crow, I suppose that it's hard to bitch about the justice of them the way things stood when they were passed. But the fact of the matter is that they are based on premises about race that don't apply outside of that narrow range.

Of course when it comes to civil rights laws, the Mexicans are the odd man out. And they know it too. Especially after the 2006 marches, which positively dwarfed anything the blacks have ever staged ... or to lay apart rioting, I should say anything legal that they ever staged... Yet those marches signified very little, as far as gaining them any similar kind of extra purchase for special rights.

And there ain't no "Yo tengo un sueño" speech from them that I know of, either. That's going to be replayed into the future, for time immemorial, at every elementary public school in the country.

EDIT: Zimmerman has the extreme misfortune of becoming the poster villain in a morality play. One in which the basic orthodoxy upon which Babylon on the Potomac is based is being brought to bear against things on the state level that they don't like, but that they have been powerless so far to do anything about.

Namely, the concealed carry, castle doctrine, and stand your ground laws. Which means this actually has "jack ****" to do with race.

This has all been stirred up intentionally by the news media. The only evidence of this you need is to see the video of Zimmerman above and compare it with the other photos of him which have been aired. GZ is a hispanic. He looks hispanic. The photos of him that have been popularly aired make him look like the racist white janitor at Sanford Elementary school who burns crosses on lawns for his friday nite fun.

This is shameful that the media have become involved as part of the story.

Like we've always said, if there was clear evidence to the contrary, he would have been brought up on charges much sooner.

It is shameful Mortgage D and as someone that works for them I am ashamed to be a part of that group. I already knew it was getting out of hand in how they wanted things presented, but this is beyond the pale. The tipping point for me was yesterday. I was on a blog (trayvon supporter) and they posted a video from AP TV. I have a contract with them. If I had lived near or in Sanford I would have been working this event.

I watched the piece. It started out with the picture of a 12 year old Trayvon talking about "17 year old unarmed Trayvon Martin was shot by George Martin" Everyone when I talk to them think that young kid is who was shot. When I tell them what Trayvon looks like now they become"confused", then when I relate some of the known facts being left out of the media's presentation. Most state, I knew something wasn't right about this story.

The rest of the piece were interviews with people of Sanford about the case. All saying it needed to go to trial. Why do they think that, because the facts ARE available, just the media intentionally is covering them up.

I know the people that edited that piece, they probably don't know the facts either, but they should, I do, its what a producer/reporter does.

I am done with the main media, gotta find that contract and send it to their legal department and tell them to stuff it and why.

I am making the choice, my rights, and my freedom are worth WAY MORE than their ****ing fiat dollars to buy ****ing **** for food and lies on cable. ****em, and don't let the door hit them on the way out. Because even if you are only driving the get away car and someone shoots and kills someone in the bank, you are still responsible.

I will no longer help those ****ers in any way, any form, for any amount of money.

This applies to each and every news organization I work for. I am done, and have seen enough, its gotten way out of hand.

I wonder if I qualify to hand out carts at wal mart. hmmm, Welcome to walmart, thanks for shopping at Walmart. Naaaa, even those guys are *******s now.

Oh yea I forgot, I went to trade school to learn to repair bicycles at UBI for my retirement. Guess its going to start a little early.

EDITED for:


Laugh my ass off, I just finished posting this and guess who ****ing calls me wanting me to work this weekend. Already booked anyway, its not about Trayvon, want me to go to the bad weather locations this weekend.

Exactly. Dr King wanted a world where his little daughter was judged not by the color of her skin but by the content of her character.

Problem is, we went right from "not judging by the color of her skin" to "not judging at all." The "content of her character" does not enter into it any more, and hasn't for a long time.

If you can't argue the point of the message then it is always an excellent tactic to attack the messenger. Not!

Wiki says: An ad hominem (Latin for "to the man" or "to the person"), short for argumentum ad hominem, is an attempt to negate the truth of a claim by pointing out a negative characteristic or belief of the person supporting it.[1] Ad hominem reasoning is normally described as a logical fallacy.

So if Zimmerman is part Peruvian, is this why I'm not hearing of La Raza ("The Race") coming to his aid? Not pure enough for them? Cynical, I know, but from by experience these race-based sorts of groups tend to make noise any time it might benefit them. Mulatto Barry Soetoro is OK for the NAACP, Black Caucus, NBPP, etc.

Low - I do not think this has anything to do with hating Hispanics but rather is rooted in the fallacy that guns are evil and the desire to have government forcefully remove them from society. If Zimmerman stabbed TvM to death with a knife, this wouldn’t have raised an eyebrow.

Au contraire... Many states have laws prohibiting carrying knives with blades beyond a certain length. In Illinois, that length is 3 inches though some local governments outlaw blades that are even shorter than that.
Quote:
(720 ILCS 5/33A-1)
(1) "Armed with a dangerous weapon". A person is considered armed with a dangerous weapon for purposes of this Article, when he or she carries on or about his or her person or is otherwise armed with a Category I, Category II, or Category III weapon.
(2) A Category I weapon is a handgun, sawed-off shotgun, sawed-off rifle, any other firearm small enough to be concealed upon the person, semiautomatic firearm, or machine gun. A Category II weapon is any other rifle, shotgun, spring gun, other firearm, stun gun or taser as defined in paragraph (a) of Section 24-1 of this Code, knife with a blade of at least 3 inches in length, dagger, dirk, switchblade knife, stiletto, axe, hatchet, or other deadly or dangerous weapon or instrument of like character...
I have a Kershaw Blur S30V. The blade is 3-3/8 inches. If I carried it and subsequently used it in the same manner Zimmerman used his gun, that would make me "armed with a dangerous weapon" and aggravated charges could result.

2dogs – Zimmerman may very well have been charged if he used a knife. I was implying that the media circus and some high ranking officials are having a field day because of their bias against guns. This is their opportunity to disarm the American public. I did a Google search for “Treyvon Martin anti-gun”. It yielded 25,800,000 results.

They're against knives, too. Basically, they're against *anything* that can be used for self-defense. They don't want us to be able to defend ourselves against *any* kind of enemy or attack, themselves included.

There is a quiet program to disarm us all. The news media of all types, conservative and liberal are making a point to broadcast every fool case that is happening in the US. They used some case in Australia to take all the guns.

It is pretty clear what happened here. Zimmerman stepped over his bounds and upon being questioned, Tryvon got*****wed and proceded to kick Zimmerman's sawed off little ass. I doubt Tryvon knew Zimmerman had a gun, because if he did, he was either stupid or crazy.

There was a recent case here, where a 14 year old got shot. The story is these kids rang a guy front door bell and then ran around to the back door and kicked it in. The guy dusted one of them. Home invasion robberies are pretty common here. I had never heard of one until a couple of years ago. The uproar is this guy shot a 14 year old and evidently didn't quit shooting. The uproar should be these little Mexicans were doing home invasions. Maybe they were too stupid to know this, but you kick someone's door in, you should be prepared to die. If kick in door, die became common, it would stop.

Karl, IMO this is far from over. I am certain when (not if) Zimmerman is acquitted, there will be mass riots and looting (a la Rodney King, etc.)

Any large metro area with areas of dense demographics (as opposed to diversified neighborhoods) will be in an uproar...
