Not to be confused with the American Bar Association. Founded in 1925, the National Bar Association (NBA) is the nation's oldest and largest association of African American lawyers and judges. Their website is a Trayvon-fest. Take a look: http://www.nationalbar.org/

Apparently, she did not pay any attention at the trial. "Stand Your Ground" laws had nothing to do with the defense.

Imagine - not even paying enough attention at the trial of the man who shot your son to know what the defense was.

National Bar Association

It would probably be more enlightening to listen to random conversations in a real bar.

Sorry lady but preventing a two bit, street thug from busting open your coconut is not really murder. I would have done the same thing Zimmerman did and I’m no murderer.

sorry your kid died lady but he was a thug.
He was casing the neighborhood to rob.
He attacked a neighborhood watch and got shot dead.
Guess he shouldn’t have attacked Zimmerman,
oh well.

I think many [including Trayvon’s Mother] who think that Zimmerman should have been convicted believe that it is perfectly reasonable to attack someone merely because they are watching — and even following — you go through their neighborhood. To run away or call the police would likely be considered a sign of weakness in Trayvon’s milieu. He obviously was raised by people who think this way and conduct themselves accordingly.

Let us consider that such people consider being “disrespected” to be sufficient grounds to take another person’s life. But defending oneself from an attacker is unacceptable.

To handle the inevitable conflicts that will arise with others peacefully and civilly is beyond their capacity. They expect others to adhere to their might-makes-right value system.

Well, I’m sorry to say, but we are not going to do the chivalrous thing and take our beatings — or lose our lives. Law-abiding citizens are armed in this country and rightfully so. Expect to be shot if you are waving sharpened screwdrivers in our faces on the subway — or beating our heads into concrete.

Not initiating violence is always an option if this value system is not appealing.

If those who are not capable of behaving like civilized human beings engage in behaviors that ultimately costs their lives, I daresay the world is well rid of them.

The attorneys need to have a quiet conversation here. As in, “knock off the murderer talk or the slander suit is on the way.”

Again Traymom, Zimmerman prevented a murder. His own.
