[SE Mom]

Yes..and have you stocked up on duck tape and other essentials?

[gov_bean_ counter]

I guess he likes it rough...

[showme_the_Glory]

a ‘bag full of smashed a$$holes.’

Can't say as I've ever seen a whole bag at one time but I'm going to take your word.

[Momto2]

Yes I remember earlier it was stated that the firearm would increase the sentence - possibly to 25 years?

[XenaLee]

Instead of leaving town, I would either hire a team of ARMED guards...or would get every friend and neighbor I could to come hang out at my house... while being VERY well-armed.

[txmissy]

Root discussed something relative to that in his testimony yesterday and I believe he stated the natural instinct was for the LEO to grab his gun and protect his own life.

“Per WESH the couple whose address waa tweeted as Zimmerman’s have been advised to leave town on verdict day.”

Is Spike Lee prepared to open his checkbook again?

[RummyChick]

do you know how much he had to pay???

[Toespi]

WTF TV. Just said letters have been placed in jurors chair to see if they want to be interviewed by media after verdict. (Horror images of after the CAnthony verdict come to mind.....the public outcry)

[Sacajaweau]

I have this awful feeling that this is going to wind up just like the Oswald kill i.e., there are hired killers to take GZ out.

Sad days for this country and I lay it at the feet of evil itself...Obama

[SE Mom]

Bingo!

[Carl Vehse]

What this Florida abortion of justice has shown is not only the Gestapo-like lynch-mob mentality of the judge and the prosecution, but also the obeisant behavior of the entire legal system and people of Florida, like the overwhelming majority of Germans during the Nazi regime who pretended they didn't see what was going on in the death camps.

Anyone who travels to Florida should expect less justice there than a nun singing "Jesus Loves Me" would receive in a Taliban court in Afghanistan. Now there may be one or two isolated exceptions, but this Zimmerman trial travesty has been such an ass-wipe with the Constitution that it would take decades of exemplary evidence to the contrary to alter the judicial cesspool image of Florida from this trial that NEVER should have occurred.

[UCANSEE2]

If Trayvon Martin, or anyone, would have jumped on a police officer like that and had him pinned...and the police officer not knowing if the assailant had a weapon, would the police officer shoot him???

"Until I ran out of bullets."

[Sacajaweau]

Yeh....sure....make yourself a target!!

[Marcella]

I just got on here. Have a totally dead battery and wrecker guy just picked up car to take to dealership. Battery only one year old this month.

I don’t know who killed the battery. I didn’t see anyone bending over the battery and bashing it. Damn, another death and I don’t know how it happened. I suppose car place will call the cops to start investigation.

[maggief]

Undisclosed.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Is this the tinderbox Obie has been waiting for???

[advertising guy]

NEED HELP.....I have an opinion on most issues save this one

durin the trial Z’s drivers lic number, his social, his phone numbers, his address was displayed to the world....what if any is the recourse ??

[RummyChick]

WTFTV getting viewers from all over the world. Answering a question from overseas.

They had over 10k viewers yesterday

"Who was the dummy [doll] supposed to represent — Zimmerman or Martin?"

Guy looked like a dummy playing the dummy, lying by himself on the floor as he was questioning witness.

His old frat bro's are going to give him holy heck, and rightly so!

They'll probably haze him and it would involve the dummy. It won't be good!
