Is it bad that I really want to see him acquitted so that Martin's mom might run away screaming like one of the women on Maury?

Not at all.

Maybe he will just be charged with disruption of the peace or something.

So who collects the $1,000,000 bounty the black panthers put on him?

About time. He should have been arrested that night...no way in hell that chasing someone down to confront them counts as self-defense or a valid application of Stand Your Ground/Castle laws. I have no problems with citizens defending their own property with lethal force, but Zimmerman wasn't doing that.

Neighborhood Watch =/= Neighborhood Vigilante, unless your name is Bruce Wayne, and you are the mother fucking BATMAN. (and Batman doesn't kill anyway)

This more or less. It's not self defense if you go hunt the guy down. He called the cops and was told to stay there. Unless Martin came at him which there's no indication that he did, that's not self defense.

I don't know if he's guilty or not, but that's for a court to decide, which is what was missing this whole time. Good news to hear this.

Its good he's finally being charged. But I get the feeling he's gonna get off. But if anything he should be charged for all those unnecessary phone calls to 911 prior to the shooting.

At least the verdict would have come from a court of law rather than the court of public opinion, regardless of what it is though...

True I suppose. I'm mixed on this though. I just watch CNN in regards to this. I want to be objective but the race card keeps coming into play. But I liked what Arsenio Hall said on Piers Morgan last week. He's leery of even letting his kid be in the same situation. Just some random cat just shoots you if you don't respond to him. Doesn't show a police badge or anything.

Martin's mom spoke today. Two notes:

1. "Thank you for being in my heart during this because a heart doesn't have any color. It's not black, it's not white, it's red."

2. "This is all we wanted: an arrest."

So apparently red isn't a color, and all they wanted was an arrest. Let's keep that in mind if Zimmerman gets off. ALL they wanted was an arrest. That's it.

Better than the race baiting we have now. Sad how the media tried and convicted this guy when they know no more than we do.

I thought black and white was gray?

 

[klunderbunker]

Huh?

 

[Moon Knight]

Huh?

Your post of what she said, it's not black, it's not white it's red. When you mix black and white you get gray.

 

[klunderbunker]

I get that, but I'm still missing something I think.

 

[Moon Knight]

I get that, but I'm still missing something I think.

I am not sure to explain it. I was making a comment on her saying it's not black or white but Red, so I said that black and white is not red but gray. Play on words.

 

[klunderbunker]

OH! Ok I get it now.

Yes, you're an awful human being. You should want the jury to read out the judgement like so "Martin Zimmerman, you are... Not guilty."

Not that I want to that to happen or think that judgement is right, but if you want Maury you need the pause before the reveal bro.
