Happens every day in a big city...Hell, research Nashville, I am sure you can see it there as well.
Are you claiming that gangsters and drug dealers who shot and killed unarmed persons on the streets and then claimed self-defense were allowed to walk free without any consequences and that these happens every day in big city?
No, but at the time their was only lip service played to local media about this incident, with no one caught for the crime, then nothing. Where is the mega phones for them?
If no one is caught for the crime then who do you expect they are going to charge? It's not like the police chief or the DA in that case bought the killer's story and letting the killer just walk free as in Zimmerman's case. Zimmerman was there with his weapon when the police arrived at the scene. You are comparing apples and oranges. So, stay alert and think clearly, will ya?
Hey, wait just a gall darn minute here? I didn't call you any names, but I disagree with your blind charge of corruption, and I am the one being stupid? Check yourself man.
Just where did I call you name or stupid? Please read what I wrote and comprehend it before you shoot off with your mouth. Also, I said "police/DA injustice". How does that become my "blind charge of corruption"?
Well, I don't know if you were, or were not pulled in by the media lies at the time it was going on, but I wasn't....unfortunately in this case you have allowed yourself to be.
Since day one after reading the father's petition through change.org, all I was asking was for the Sanford police dept to do its job to conduct a proper and thorough investigation and to follow up with appropriate criminal charges if there was probable cause.
When this case exploded in the media, I have seen vast majority of the public crying out for the same justice I was asking for Trayvon. Only a few handful was on Zimmerman's side. When Zimmerman's non-emergency call to the dispatch about Trayvon suspicion came out and other details concerning that night emerged, people were definitely seeing the probable cause for at least a negligence of some sort on Zimmerman's part. But, when somebody leaked to the media about Trayvon's school suspension details and photographs of him at his age or in certain pose, which are entirely much-ado-about-nothing, benigh and irrelevant, nevertheless it did sway quite a bit of people from the majority.
As for me, I still hold that the police should have done a thorough investigation before trying to dismiss the case instead of letting the killer just walk. From what I've seen of those leaked evidence, there is certainly enough probable cause for an arrest for criminal negligence of some level such as negligent homicide. Fortunately, the special prosecutor did just that and a judge did find probable cause for the charge of 2nd degree murder, which I wasn't expecting. But, she has the evidence and we don't. Whether Zimmerman is guilty or not is for the jury to decide and not us.
But, here you have people day in and day out trying to demonize Trayvon and his parents and to declare Zimmerman innocence based on his claim and insisted he should not even be charged of any crime. Others simply disagree with this view. This is where the debate is all about. While some would go into who did what first to whom kind of stuffs, I generally stay clear of that since now this case is in the court of our justice system.
Since Zimmerman is now charged of 2nd degree murder, he is and should be in jail until a bail is set by the judge. So. what's wrong with that?
Crying about? heh, heh...Yeah right. I have had it up to my finely chiseled ass with all this misrepresentation. When this story was first coming to light, I, at first glance started out with being in full support, and full throated with the position you are now taking, that is UNTIL, I started to read articles, and think logically, and you know what?? To be Sooooooo down one way or the other at this moment is what is truly stupid.
Do you twist and bend so easily with the winds?
This case is about an unarmed kid walking on the street minding his own business but then shot to death by an armed adult who followed him because he thought the kid was acting suspicious.
Does this fact alone not warrant a thorough investigation instead of simply taking the killer's story and let him walk without further ado within a matter of days if not 24 hours?
With what we know about this case, don't you at least agree with the judge who read the special prosecutor's affidavit and declared that he find probable case for the charge?
So, in between all these media ruckus and all these speculative debates and character assassination of the dead victim who can't speak for himself, the probable cause (not guilty or not guilty as in a trail) for some kind of negligent charges, if not 2nd degree murder, should still be solidly grounded in principle if you still have any sense of justice in your character and not be easily wavered by irrelevant stuffs.
So this isn't you?

Hmmm. Seems you can't even remember what you post from page to page, so I don't think I'll be taking your call to me to "get my facts straight" very seriously....sorry.
If you follow the thread and read what was said, you would know that the person who brought up these was the poster I responded to. Jeez, I don't even have to lay it out for you.
My buddies? like who? Oh, and BTW, this "public outcry" resulted in the NBPP placing a bounty "dead or alive" on Zim's head to be tried in "street court"...Is that the noble public outcry you admire so? Where is your call to prosecute those jack asses?
Those mess? Why should I clean up your mess?
