The more we learn, the worse it looks for the choirboy who was merely visiting his father.
I’m asking everyone to refrain from responding to my posts on this case from previous days, now and in the future, meaning posts from today and future days. Our knowledge changes daily. A tragedy is becoming a tragi-comedy.
Your request, past and future, now and then, when and how, is becoming a bit of a refrain.
If my general take on this mess is found to be in error once this CF gets sorted out, I'll most certainly post a mea culpa somewhere amongst the incredible number of threads this has engendered.
Actually, once it is relatively sorted, perhaps a single thread can be posted where anyone honest enough to accept their earned dose of face/egg can have it applied with a single stop !
We can all see where this thing is going.
The narrative, that Zimmerman stalked Williams and shot him in cold blood, the overzealous neighborhood watch guy, trigger-happy, racist, etc... None of that is going to be borne out by the evidence.
More and more information about Williams, his previous trouble with the law, and how this actually went down is going to contradict the narrative, which is going to lead to an uncomfortable situation where the things that have been said have to be retracted or backed away from.
At that point, responsible people are going to have to hem and haw, and do a lot of “in light of new information” and all that. Of course, the shameless race hustlers will never let it go.
Al Sharpton maintains to this day that Steven Pagones kidnapped Tawana Brawley.
This case is going to wind up in the catalog of famous racial hoaxes, along with Tawana Brawley, Rodney King, DukeLAX and Freddy’s Fashion Mart.
