There are still millions of people that think Trayvon was a choir boy and that Zimmerman is chapter president of his local neo-Nazi party group.

I applaud your honesty. As for why this wasn't released earlier: they are facing an avalanche of lawsuits and a national press looking to rip them apart over even the most trivial of errors. Their primary goal is to conduct a thorough and objective investigation (translation -- take their time). Their secondary goal is to protect themselves from this upcoming assault (translation -- don't say anything unnecessary, and anything that can't be 100% defended in a court of law). No where in their job description is it their job to save people from race pimps, their allies in the press, and the hordes of useless idiots. If those three groups of people choose to start riots, the culpability lies with them, not the police department. If people choose to believe any of those three groups, they, not the police, are eligible for the Darwin award. But heading these leeches off at the pass is not what the police department is charged with, and is incompatible with their actual job.

Have you seen the benefit articles the media is posting? The pictures of the poster for a benefit pictures what looks like a fat 12-year-old boy (Mike Brown when very young). Gee, where have we seen tactics like that before? Trayvon! The family has raised well over $50,000 so far for this angelic "gentle giant".

It bothers me that they fed the story to us to begin with. While any cop can make a mistake, I suspect those of us that live within 10 miles of an urban black underclass assumed the shooting was “clean”. Cops in those areas are rarely proactive, as everything they do is suspect; they tend to “de-police” and let the gibsmedats kill each other (while attempting to protect the remaining businesses - whose taxes pay their salaries).

Read all about it on post #85.

I had suspected this about 2 days ago, but it took a while to confirm it.

Just interested in getting the facts correct.
