Most of us are not looking forward to such.

I’m not sure how long a person has to have their head pounded in the pavement to make a decision about whether your life is in danger. Waiting until you’re unconscious or in a coma would be a little late.

Yes, the judge would not allow the defense created animation to be used. The jury did see a re-enactment video of what happened when Zimmerman walked the police through the circumstances (before George had attorneys).

Zimmerman was absolutely wrong in following him for any length of time longer than to place the call to the dispatcher.

Would you mind showing me where that law is written? I haven't been able to find it.

Exactly! That is why it is what GZ’s thoughts were at the time that his head was being used as a punching bag, and a bouncy ball. I’m guessing that injuries on the back of his head were from TM violently pushing his head down quickly as he struggled to choke and smother GZ.

Myself, I would have a hair trigger (pardon the pun). I’m older than GZ, and in better condition, but any perp gets one warning, and if no retreat (by me or the perp), I would act. My opinion for myself is if I’m going to be rolled, I will get in a few shots (from my hands, feet, or firearms). Hopefully I will never be in that situation. But, I have thought through my limits, and am always aware of surroundings.

The media does all it can to stir up resentment against Christians/normals/men/Whites. It loves to divide people and have them arguing. Then it rushes in to film the arguing.

The media would love to have riots. In their minds, it would be the righteous uprising of an oppressed, downtrodden underclass against evil oppressors.

The point I just don’t get...

If you are maliciously profiling and trailing black kids in the neighbor with the hopes of engaging and possibility shooting one...why would you bother calling 911?

“Who do you call when a cop violates your civil rights or the law? “

You form a Vigilance committee.

Excellent point, which shows he did not profile black kids

And if there aren't any, community organizers at the DOJ will make sure to start some.

Oh, not looking forward to it. But handguns vs. scope-sighted rifles wielded by marksmen-hunters ???

Fish in a barrel. . .

Probably because each is, respectively, the more unusual of the names.
