folks think that Holder and Obama will press civil rights charges just because they are both black.

I guess you missed the testimony from the woman in the police department who set up the neighborhood watch. She testified that all the members were to call George when they saw suspicious activity, and he was to be the only one to call it in, so they didn't have to report results back to 25 different people.

Most of the calls came before he was Watch Captain.

Zimmerman called Sanford police seven times since Aug. 2011

8 calls out of 46 mentioned someone black.

Sadly in some communities and towns, there are a disproportionate amount of blacks who commit crimes in certain areas, and is it all due to the economics that exist within these areas sadly enough? Otherwise take Chicago for one example am I right on that one ? Why did the dispatcher want to know whether or not the person was black or white or what ever when asked Zimmerman this question ? Otherwise was it just to alert the dispatched police of who they would be looking for by skin color and clothes worn when they got there on the scene ? Is this OK to do or just not right in some peoples eyes or thinking when asking for this info?

Some would argue that when these things are asked, it then sets up the profile of a person in which could be construed as race profiling later on, but this would mainly be the case with them if that person was wrongfully accused or profiled in the event the person was found to be innocent.

Now how do you not answer these questions when asked, if It is learned that these questions do play a role in the assessment of, and by a need for the police to understand the identity of a suspect in which is to be looked for when reported on, what do you do ? Now in the other cases where Zimmerman reported suspects or criminal activity, how many was he right on, and how many was he wrong on in the aftermath of his reporting these things ? Anyone know ? How many times was he asked the identity of the suspects in which he would be calling in on, as is found within each call made ? Was Zimmerman desensitized due to the area in which he lived in, where as he was bombarded with the knowledge of criminal activity in which was possibly being perpetrated in large part by black people in the area, otherwise as far as he was privy to such info and/or experiences in which he was exposed to in these areas ? If so does this make Zimmerman a racist or a desensitized watchmen, wherefore he began to think that black people were more apt to be suspect in the area he was a watchmen in, and more so than any other race because of the stats in which were in large part a sad commentary for the area in which he became a watchmen in ?

I'm just trying to figure out what drove him to be what people are trying to label him as, yet that's only if he was what they want to label him as or rather he was not, and so if he was not, then I wonder if they are wrong about him in all of this confusion in which this nation is going through now.

I told you. They had nothing.
Act two will be an announcement by the Martin family that they want closure and will not pursue any civil action.

It's being reported by the Los Angeles Times. The article states that ""It's a very tough, tough case to sell" because of the lack of witnesses and "In most of these [hate crime] cases, you have someone who had made racial statements or you have a group who goes looking to attack a person based on their race." The FBI ruled that there was no evidence that George Zimmerman acted out of racial bias.


George Zimmerman unlikely to face federal charges - latimes.com

WASHINGTON — George Zimmerman is unlikely to face federal charges for killing black teenager Trayvon Martin because it would be difficult to prove he acted out of racial bias, Justice Department officials said Tuesday.

federal prosecution of Zimmerman would require clear evidence that he set out to attack the unarmed Martin because he was black.

So far, prosecutors have not shown evidence that Zimmerman acted out of racial bias.

That's weird. According to the left here, Zimmerman was out hunting blacks to kill.....go figure.

According to some on the right here the killing was just a happy little accident

Really???

I have never seen anyone on the 'right' say the incident was happy.. nor did I see anyone say it was an accident....

I have seen plenty say it was in self defense as the evidence showed.. I have even been one of many to say it was tragic...

But hey... don't let anyone get in the way of your work of fiction, right??

thanks wonder if wild about trial will cover it

Probably - someone else be in charge of the next one!

There's a few coming up, pick one.

there is one going on in Wisconsin

MILWAUKEE (AP) — A Milwaukee man’s own surveillance cameras show him confronting a 13-year-old neighbor boy on a sidewalk outside of their houses, pointing a gun at the teen and firing into his chest from a few feet away.
The wounded teen flees away from the cameras’ view and collapses in the street where his mother, according to her testimony, held him as he took his last breath.
The video was shown in court Tuesday as evidence in the trial of John Henry Spooner, who’s accused of gunning down Darius Simmons in May 2012 after accusing the teen of breaking into his home and stealing guns. Spooner, 76, is charged with first-degree intentional homicide.
In the surveillance footage, Spooner emerges from his house that morning and confronts Simmons. He points a gun at the boy, who quickly moves backward a few steps. Both Spooner and the teen direct their attention toward a porch at Simmons’ home, where Simmons’ mother is standing. Moments later, Spooner points the gun back at Simmons and fires twice.

Holy crap! WTH. Isn't that a case closed just waiting for verdict?

The Sneiderman is a maybe.. charges:
Sneiderman now faces seven counts of perjury, four counts of giving false statements and one count each of concealing material facts and hindering the apprehension of a criminal. One count of felony murder was added, along with a count of aggravated assault, while charges of attempted murder, insurance fraud and racketeering were dropped from the indictment handed down in August.

I'm so trial finicky with dp/slaughter/race. lol

We double dipped into Seacat on the JA thread - that was a shocker one - another psycho.

Trial vote thread?

I don't care - I just show up for the taking it apart and the laughs.

This was known months ago. But, Obama had an agenda to push. Had Bush done something like that, the media would have bashed him.

Can't they just organize a good old fashioned which burning?

There is nothing nice to say about eric holder. He had no case and never did. Now he can move on to hand wringing over how the law has to be changed.

Come on democrats, make eliminating self defense an issue in the 2014 election.

Yup.

Now let's sit back and see if these righties have something nice to say about Eric Holder. Don't hold your breath.

Why would ANYONE have anything nice to say about a blatant racist and race baiter? Please inform me. The man is a criminal.

self defense after angrily stalking someone at night and in the rain should be a crime.

Soon we will have to deliver our own justice if things are to change. Extreme indeed. Just hope we don't have to go there

Saturday's verdict does make Peoples' Justice more of a closer reality.

 

[Boss]

Trayvon's mom's response to his out of control behavior was to kick him out of the house.

Which is why he was hanging with his dad @ dad's g-friend's house. Mom wouldn't have him in hers.

And THIS is what we should be having a national debate about. How do parents, in this day and age, deal with an out-of-control teen? What resources do we have to help them cope with this, and get their kids back on the right track? Or can they be put back on the right track, after they are teenagers? How can parents raise their kids in a manner, where they don't get themselves into situations like this?

But NOOOoooooo..... We have to conduct a fucking witch hunt and pretend Zimmerman was a racist, and HE is the problem! We sit here and watch this JOKE of a Justice Department and JOKE of an Attorney General, literally TARGET an American citizen, after he was found not guilty on all charges. Why? Because this administration is going to antagonize and fan the flames of racial tension any way they can. Obama has repeatedly taken EVERY opportunity to go before the people and DIVIDE us! Foment racial divisiveness, throw gas on the fire, and drag society back to the 1950s.

No, it backs law in place to protect GZ and other citizens from the lack of home ttrained kids aka thugs who think they can get over on the system. TM gambled and lost.

Society is safer when TM type thugs don't know who's armed.
