GZ was not asked to stay in his car.
He was never asked to remain in his vehicle:
Dispatcher - Are you following him?
Zimmerman - Yeah.
Dispatcher - Ok, we don’t need you to do that.
Zimmerman - Ok.
I agree. On my Facebook page I have a graphic up that says that, except replaces Zimmerman with the word guns.
RE: Free George Zimmerman.
But isn’t he already free?
Idiotic analogy.
Not that you are an idiot, rather the analogy.
No flames from me..... I like your thinking on this matter. It finally makes sense of things that were confusing me
I use Rosa Parks when liberals say, “why would anyone need an assault rifle?”
I respond, “why did Rosa Parks NEED to sit up front?”
Heads explode and hilarity ensues!
Stop repeating this lie told by the racists. It didn't happen.
Has Hitler appeared in this thread yet?
Totally agree.
Let add another little nugget of logic:
Eric Holder and Obama claiming “Stand Your ground” laws are what contributed to Zimmerman shooting Trayvon means asking if Trayvon felt Zimmerman was a threat why didn’t Trayvon flee. I mean, Trayvon already escaped Zimmerman’s watch and could easily have ran home the rest of the way, but, instead, Trayvon confronted and attacked Zimmerman. According to Holder and Obama, Trayvon should have fled.
In modern America, a prudent citizen should know to remain in their vehicle, doors locked, and windows up, when there are young black males known to be in the vicinity.What does this say about our society? Are we living in a drive through Safari Park?
If we get out of our vehicles we deserve what we get and shouldn’t blame the attacker, much less shoot them in self-defense?
People are foaming at the mouth calling George Zimmerman a racist while at the same time saying he’s at fault for not following the rules on the Safari Park safety brochure.
The only mistake I think George Zimmerman made is that he didn’t consider his own safety. He needed to think things through.
He should have asked himself, “if I get out of my car and this person becomes violent, am I able to defend myself without lethal force?” The answer is clearly NO, ergo, he should have remained in his vehicle and waited for the police.
On a recent vanity thread, a FReeper pointed out that having a gun does not give one license to do things that he wouldn’t do without the gun. If you wouldn’t follow a suspicious looking person without the gun, you shouldn’t do it just because you have the gun.
About as absurd as comparing Zimmerman with Rosa Parks, or the recent comparison of Martin with Dred Scott.
Well stated.
Not every risky or foolhardy action is a victory for civil rights.
Spot on. You nailed it. Well done.
