I didn't see a thread to follow and discuss the pending verdict. I have been praying fervently for George, his family and this jury. I pray he is exonerated completely as this wholely affects ALL of us. This case is about our ability to protect ourselves and it is in jeopardy.
I cannot understand your hostility.
How do they keep a mob from storming the courthouse at the time of a verdict?
We have the Saturday morning Admin Moderator. For experienced FR hands, nothing more need be said.
I just went back and read what I posted. You completely misread it. I was simply making the point that this does not have to be my thread, it can be Chips. I really don’t need the title of thread holder or whatever
This is getting absurd.
“just minding his own business when a creepy-assed cracker started following him.”
I’m sorry, but that would be “creepy-ass-cracka”. You know a thug is too lazy for word enunciation.
Don-ho......do you organize your closet by the color of your clothes?
Only if the feds know about it in the first place. That's where the "Get out of dodge" part comes in. Do what needs to be done to defend yourself, get out of dodge, then shut up afterward to everybody (and I mean everybody).
Don’t tell me you’re afraid of a CHILD like that. That slender CHILD has every right to swim across your pool to and from its HOME. It’s not illegal to go out for a SNACK! If conditions lead it to attack you, well then, you created those conditions. Show me the fang marks that justify you defending yourself from this CHILD. They’re AREN’T any!
...I didn’t just hear you mutter “F’n Snake” under your breath... did I?
I hate to be a detail nazi, but it wasn't tea.
The 'candy' can vary (gummy bears, skittles, etc), and the drink can vary, but in this case Trayvon had a can of Arizona Brand Watermelon Fruit Juice Cocktail.
Don’t blame the candy company.
The reason Martin bought Skittles and watermelon tea was to mix it with cough syrup and make purple drank or purple lean.
Before it was all scrubbed, Martin’s Facebook page was full of discussion about the recipe.

Seems to me that if the family really cared about Trayvon, they would have done something about his punk ways so he would not have been shot in the first place. Didn't appear like this family cared about Trayvon until after he was dead.
I have heard NO ONE bring up the fact that if Mr Zimmerman had been “playing cop” or had any intention of “playing cop”- he would have had his gun drawn...
he did not have his gun drawn—
in fact, he screamed and cried for help and took quite a beating- his nose broke and his head being pounded into cement- before he finally used his gun....
IF Zimmerman was on top— he surely would have quieted his target much earlier than he did— and if Zimmerman were on top- where is the states evidence, such as bruises on Martin’s face? Where is Martin’s broken nose—
FACTS— just stick to the facts...
The police happened to find a Slim Jim burglary tool in the bushes where GZ said he saw Martin hanging out. This was a couple of days after the incident, so it couldn't be put into evidence because there was no chain of custody link to TM. I think it was his. But I'm just speculating.
Is this the thread discussion thread?
From Wikipedia:
6:24:18 TM buys Skittles and watermelon drink at 7-11
7:09:34 GZ calls non-emergency police line
Elapsed time 45:16
What was the Skittles Child doing for those 45 minutes?
Best cure for that is to go to the most recent thread (yesterday's) and discuss staring a new one. It's the way things work best. How do you think it happens that we do not have five daily Limbaugh threads? we have traditions and customsthat a FReeper with as much time as you have really should be aware of.
Apparently the defense team has filed an appeal with the Mods. I guess we have to just wait out the decision.
Why he was skipping and jumping rope. You know, what all sweet children do.
Have there been any more robberies in that neighborhood since TM’s demise?
