Zimmerman verdict: Not Guilty.

[A Theist]

Sadly, the Divine Tiberius is correct. Zimmerman is a killer but he was found not guilty of murder. The first is a value judgement the second a legal verdict.

However, Oliver is correct also. Any redneck asshole can put a gun in his belt and go out and follow a black guy and should the guy being followed turn and say "why are you following me" the redneck can pull his gun and shoot if if he CLAIMS he thought he was in danger. That is the precedent this verdict establishes.

The problem is the law, Tibs. And please do not insult my ( or your own) intelligence by suggesting that if the shooter was black and the victim was white the result would have been the same. Take the example of the woman who was sentenced to 20 years for firing a "warning shot." She was black.

You're a great guy, Tibs, but you are dreadfully naive about racial conditions in the US.

Sorry cantankerous old hippie dude, if anyone's naive on racial issues in the U.S. it's you and the other kool aid drinking dumbasses who have thrown out all the trial evidence in favor of mob vigilantism because Zimmerman is half white...Tibs has it right. You don't. According to the most recent FBI reports 91% of black homicide victims were killed by other blacks ( The Bureau of Justice puts that number a little higher at 93%), and not to mention the high black on black murder rate in Chicago. It's a shame that you and your ilk aren't as equally passionate in denouncing the black on black murder rate or the black on white murder rate. Still waiting for Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to show up in Chicago leading protests to denounce the black on black murder rate there. If the shooter had been black and the victim white, the incident wouldn't gotten the national media attention as the Zimmerman case did. The 91% black on black murder rate isn't news worthy but one half white guy who shoots and kills a black guy in self defense is. The problem is with the way this whole incident has been covered in the media, especially with MSLSD so-called News....

The Black woman who got 20 years for firing a warning shot: according to Florida law, if the woman had the weapon on her person and fired the warning shot to ward off her abusive ex husband at the time they were arguing, the law would have been on her side...but because she left to get the gun and then came back and fired it in his direction she violated the law...
