“People of color”? I thought we weren’t supposed to call them colored people anymore.

I don’t care who you are, if you’ve overpowered me and you’re trying to wipe up the sidewalk with my head, and I happen to be armed, you’re going to be dead. I don’t care if you’re a seventeen year old black, or a twelve year old Oompa Loompa.

Try looking up ‘The True Solomon’s Temple’ church outside of Chicago.

I was visiting Chicago and just happened to catch their program when flipping stations in the hotel.

GOOD GRIEF!!!!!!!!

T.D. Jakes is a racist (just like Trayvon). As is any black person who looks at the evidence and is upset that Zimmerman was acquitted. The only crime here is that Zimmerman was charged at all.

All the evidence points to a Zimmerman self defense of a Travon attack.
Property owners or renters should be allowed to keep an eye on the neighborhood without getting attacked by someone.

It seems Travon was probably a drug using, gang worshiping, fighting, burglarizing youth with little promise for a law abiding future based on what we heard in the trial and all we read about what was left OUT OF THE TRIAL.

It is ashamed this 17 year old was left without what it takes to grow up and become a solid man. His parents need to look into the mirror about this.

Zimmerman was the victim, not Travon.

His take on abortion: “Go ahead and preach against abortion,” he told his mostly black audience of ministers and lay people. “But when you get through preaching against abortion, give us some milk up in here, so that we can feed the babies you told us we ought to have.” The Cincinnati Post 6/13/03

Good Lord, that is breathtakingly evil. The thought process this exposes is frightening: abortion is better because it is cheaper and more cost effective.

Just... wow...

“Zimmerman, who is half Hispanic and half Caucasian...”

This is an out and out lie. Zimmerman’s great grandfather was black. He is of mixed race, including Black, Hispanic and Caucasian.

RE: he would still have no business in hassling some one for just walking down the street,

Where is the evidence that he was hassling Trayvon? Can you produce it? A Video or an eyewitness account perhaps?

We DO KNOW that if Trayvon wanted to go straight home, HE HAD PLENTY OF TIME TO DO SO.

RE: so who made the first move to start trouble?

We DON’T KNOW. All we know is that Trayvon was beating Zimemrman within an inch of his life.

Pastor Jakes speaks a good word for Jesus, have bought a couple of his videos.

The man is a hieratic. He denies the Trinity. From the Potter's House Website: There is one God, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect, and eternally existing in three manifestations: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Notice the word manifestation. Orthodox Christianity teaches that God is 3 in 1. At all times. this teaches that God moves around a continuum of the three, never more than one at a time.

Yes we are not to judge

Oh yes we are! He is a so called Pastor and is supposed to be held to a higher standard. Paul would have kicked his behind! Literally!

Zimmerman was the victim, not Travon.

I suggest Travon is a victim. He is a victim of liberal policies that failed the black community. That broke up families. That failed to teach a sense of responsibility and values.

Zimmerman is a victim. But he got sucked into the same failure that Martin was involved in. Thankfully Zimmerman wasn't convicted.

I don,t know that there is any evidence, that is what i was asking , who started it?

It was mentioned that he was following Trayvon around, if that is true then it puts a different light on it as far as i am concerned.

At any rate he was acquitted.

What light? There was a string of 14 robberies in the area for the past year. Wouldn’t it be the responsibility of a neighborhood watch Captain to look into a stranger in the area in a dark night?

And again, if Trayvon was nervous about someone following him, he had AMPLE TIME to get home — 4 minutes according to evidence to reach a few hundred yards to his place.

AND NOTE:

The most irrefutable proof of self-defense that Zimmerman’s supporters should focus on is the evidence that TM was raining down blows on GZ for more than forty-five seconds during which time GZ was screaming for help but didn’t land a single blow on TM.

Even if, hypothetically speaking, GZ had somehow done something that gave TM a legitimate reason to punch him in the face and knock him to the ground, there would have been no remotely-plausibly-legitimate reason for him to continue beating GZ for more than 45 seconds after that.

No, he was never a sound preacher. Unless you consider a rejection of the Trinity to be sound.

Well that does put a different light on it then don,t it follow some one around just in case they might be the one who did the 14 robberies?

Let me just put this straight, i can see that it was self defense, do you understand that?

At the same time i can see that it would make me or any one else mad for some police mentality son to be following me around.

The guy is a Bishop? who ordained him? No-one. No apostolic succession, nothing. He’s as much a Bishop as any “Earl” is a member of the nobility....

RE: No apostolic succession, nothing.

Not to defend T.D. Jake’s impression of the Zimmerman trial, but many denominations have a DIFFERENT VIEW of what apostolic succession means.
