She had some kind of metal things on her teeth. Were they braces or grillz?

Unless they can measure and correct a negative IQ, I doubt any college (other than as a token in an Ivy League College) could successfully educate this vegetable.

btw was not Traydown the ONLY one throwing punches?

Of course not... GZ landed some devastating blows to the back of TM's hand, on his knuckles.

You forgot the Book deal, the Movie about her and Trayvon’s thwarted love.

I agree with you. We can’t take her statement as absolutely dispositive that Martin hit first since she has no firsthand knowledge. It is interesting, though, that she would make an admission against her friend’s interests. She must be basing her belief on something. Is she basing it on something Trayvon may have told her on that phone call? Or is she basing it on Trayvon’s history of fighting? Or is she just wildly speculating?

Spoken like a 3.0.

A 3.0 in today's world would get you rides on the special ed bus where I grew up. They teach today's youths nothing but easy to grasp lies. Today's youths also even dress as special eds who do not even know how to use belts.

So, if she now says Trayvon hit first, that must mean Zimmerman Martin actually hit first?

Actually, the EVIDENCE in the courtroom showed that Martin did ALL of the hitting! There were no, let me repeat for you, NO bruises, scrapes, nicks, etc... on Martin; Zimmerman was too busy trying to BLOCK the punches and escape the pummeling to even throw any punches back at Martin.

What Precious "thinks" is immaterial to the actual events, but her thought process is supported by the physical evidence.

To be fair, I believe she’s as well qualified and reasonable as most television “news” readers and opinionators.

And now it's time for the Evening News with perky Rachel Jenteal.

if she keeps this up, she is going to get her own reality show in the time slot after honey boo-boo.

I think I'll be passing on the "Watch and Sniff" play-along episode for both of them

She’s is also of the demographic most likely to become an SEIU member and may just end up being the one handling your medical records and treatment decisions

He who punches last has the best chance of winning the fight. George won.

There is something refreshing about Rachel. She seems too mentally challenged to lie. Everything comes right out there as she sees it. She is nuance free.
