Thanks.
I have asked whether the break ins stopped after Martin died. No one has answered. I can’t find the stat, either.
It would appear many who lived in that condo unit have moved.
I'm sure there are some here who can better answer your question.
Of course the country knows the neighborhood watch in that neighborhood ain’t doing squat right now. It should be open season on those homes.
I had not seen that pic. Why was that not evidence in the trial? Or was it and I missed it?
He was arrested. Released. Re arrested. Points out the flaws in the juvinile system.
Also note she testified that they originally discussed that the thought the perp lived near the back exit. Check the map for the location of Brandi s condo. Hmmmm?
Looking for today’s thread...
Not seeing it yet.
That was a shock to see that photo - was not aware of it either.
Evidence. Part of many shots blocked by MSM
Do you know whether it’s voluntary or involuntary manslaughter?
Sorry, what I meant was a police forensic photographer’s camera shot, with evidence markers visible.
There was a photo of thug-boy dead shown to the courtroom, but he was draped with a yellow blanket/tarp, and it caused the parent to leave the courtroom in tears.
First LEO on-scene said he tried CPR on Martin, plugged hole in back with plastic bags from neighbor
I don’t remember where I found this pic; I should have bookmarked it before it possibly gets scrubbed.
LEO = Law Enforcement Officer.
Police report stated Martin’s knees were grass-stained and wet; Zimmerman’s back was wet. Both were consistent with being in contact with wet grass.
Exactly. My 1911 is 8 in the mag, 1 in the chamber, cocked, locked. Why anyone would not have one in the chamber and a completely full mag is beyond me.
I saved a copy and will post it on the Live Thread (unless you want to)
Go ahead; please Ping me to it so I can join the thread.
You’re welcome.
Not only is a very toxic (meaning overt and hidden repercussions in the present AND in the future) travesty being perpetrated — at taxpayer expense* — but also a great teachable moment has been lost.
This was an opportunity for the black community to band together and say “NO” to the devastating thug-drug culture. If the “leaders” didn’t do it because of self-interest, then there could have been a groundswell in the communities to speak out about the losses due to drugs and lifestyle and family erosion.
Unfortunately for ALL of us now, not only will young black men, families, and communities continue to be destroyed due to these REVERSIBLE culture problems, but things will get worse for us all as external (white) entities are blamed. Yeah, I’m angry — evil being allowed to run rampant instead of being quashed by the light of truth by honest people.
Trayvon had been doing very well when living with his aunt. (source later; it’s on http://theconservativetreehouse.com website)
[when was that Trayvon on horse photo taken?]
His problems as documented in school records seem to begin when he was removed from the security and love of his aunt’s home — yet another case study for discussion for any inclined to honestly seek solutions.
George Zimmerman with his background, his interest and ability to work with black youth, would have made a great ally if ANYone had been so inclined. What a WASTE, what a LOSS (sigh).
There are bigger forces at work here, dark forces. Who set the timing? Judge Nelson has seemingly rushed this trial, pushed the defense, bringing it to jury decision during the NAACP convention in next-door Orlando this weekend thru Tues. The pers gave a haphazard closing — either that was intentional (more intrigue; fits other observations), or they could have benefitted from more time to prepare.
It is my hope and prayer that the jury, guided by God above, will defy those forces. And that central FL showers will kick in at the right times.
Written on the fly, so I hope this makes sense, and now I’m being paged. I want to pursue this thought. Ya’ll have a good day, and be ready to batten down.
n the past year and a half, Tracey Martin and Sabryna Fulton have probably spent more time with lawyers, doing interviews about Trayvon, attending hearings and sitting through this trial, than they spent WITH Trayvon in the 17 years of his life.
So true.
I know they excercised great restraint, but I think West & O Mara would have loved to point that out to the jury. Especially with the grieving Mother.
The Kel-Tec of the type Zimmerman carried requires two hands to hold the slide back, it does not lock open.
>>>>“vis-a-vis” means “with respect to”....<<<<
Thank you kindly MortMan. So, I used it correctly!
I conclude from this business that the "black community" likes and somehow benefits from the thugs-n-drugs culture ... and that any effort to eliminate that culture is threatening to them.
I apologize. I’ve been on three different threads and misundertook. MARTIN was the assailent, as far as the prosecutor presented it.
