all the professional human rights leaders who make money out of it all to the front now - pathetic!!!
The consummate Chit Chatter  |
|
By:
The usual suspects were that keen to demonise whitey, when it came out that Zimmerman was Hispanic they invented a new category of American, 'white hispanic'.

Perhaps that could be hyphenated? I don't know the guy's breeding.

Nor read P Eye for years, sounds good

Certainly seems the media were - as Helissio says - very selective in the way they presented the evidence of the case to begin with.
Omitting anything in Zimmerman's favour to make it as one sided as possible (which made it as big a story as possible) was vert irresponsible. His defence still sounds pretty weak though . If he was taking the sort of beating he claims, hard to see how he was able to draw the gun and fire it. |
|
By:
Were any pictures ever issued which showed the extent of his 'beating?

If I had an adopted son from Peru, he would look like George Zimmerman.

orioles - but they do make money out of it - where do you think their salaries come from,
and all their fund raising do you realise they prey on poor blacks as well as rich black and white to gather their cash |

Nice one Tobermorey...didn't expect a verdict today...some residents of Sanford Florida gonna go mental after this result...
|
|
By:
Not sure about the residents, more likely the DOJ, Al Sharpton, the Black Panthers, the White House, Spike Lee and celebrity Inc will all continue in to stir up as much racial capital as they can.

If you have a hammer everything looks like a nail.
If you have a gun you might as well use it. |

24 Mar 12 17:40 So just to get this straight Helissio, is it the media coverage you're unhappy with, or the fact that so many people seem to think that Zimmerman should be brought to book? You sound as if you think he is innocent? twomatchpoints 24 Mar 12 17:45 He is, by Florida law. tobermory 24 Mar 12 18:07 No he isn't . The Police have not interpreted the law correctly. 1-0 to Twomatchpoints Q.C. Getting as good as orioles at this lark. Next.The McCanns... |

Obama's comments were a f.disgrace... all that "if I had a son he'd look like Trayvon". Really Obama, not one of the tens of thousands of people murdered since you took office could have looked like your son eh? Just that particular one...
Deliberate attempt to stoke up racial tensions |
|
By:
That makes no sense whatsoever! There's at least one...given what he said. Are you broken?
|
|
By:
Yep, starange as it seems to some, Obama does not represent "Hope" and "change we can believe in" He's just more filth, just like the old filth, working for the same mob.

Obama has got involved and his administration are now filing federal charges against Zimmerman.

|
By:
 I think he may well be guilty but that is out of order to have another go at him when he seems to have had a fair trial |
|
By:
I don';t think they will do that, they are just considering it seemingly.
Jesse Jackson is raging though.... "I remain stunned at the decision. The department of justice must intervene to take this to another level." He said "the American legal system has once again failed justice". |

14 Jul 13 23:04 I think he may well be guilty but that is out of order to have another go at him when he seems to have had a fair trial Like when John Terry was found not guilty of racism in a court of law, but the F.A found him guilty, so it must be true. It's the politics forums biggest ever thread. |

By:
why couldnt he shoot him in the leg?...........these americans with their guns are complete nutters...........they think its the most important thing in their constitution........."the right to bear arms".......complete weirdos
|
|
By:
Shoot him in the leg? Shooting someone in the leg can still be fatal!
Trayvon was on top of him smashing his head against the pavement. He acted in self defense and proved to be lethal. |
|
By:
Can't say I have been following this story very closely, but what exactly has 'race' or 'colour' to do with this shooting? Did the acquitted gunman shoot the young man specifically because of his colour???
|

By:
Depends who you ask
liberals will tell you Trayvon was an 11 year old who was shot to death by a white raycist for being black and buying candy conservatives will tell you stuff like this: http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/06/what_the_media_choose_not_to_know_about_trayvon.html cynics will say the whole circus was ginned up in the run up to the 2008 election for obvious reasons. |
