    Each circumstance is different. Here the defense is one of self-defense. That's not likely to be the case in other cases (ie the dude in France today).

    Save all the insults and prove that they said that, verbatim. Until then, you are lying.

    Where attorneys get involved, I feel no obligation to wait. It's obvious that the ultimate strategy is to prepare the battle space for a civil trial.

    Ask them then....ask your buddies if what I said isn't truth. Have you noticed that they aren't denying it.

    They BELIEVE that Zimmerman PROBABLY had just cause to shoot Trayvon AND we all should wait and hold judgment because the media is bias.

    Ask them Sir Jackie! Ask anyone before you call me a liar. You didn't read ****

    So you admit that you are unable to prove it?

    Because you have failed to do so.

    Merely repeating the same unsubstantiated assertion is no proof.

    No matter what font size.

    This, of course, makes absolutely no sense.

    I don't recall saying that. I recall saying I did not know enough to properly evaluate Zimmerman's self-defense claim.

    I have not really been presented with all the facts about what happened that night because Zimmerman has not been allowed (presumably under advice of counsel) to tell his side.

    On the other hand, I have seen what the Martin family lawyers have done, so I can make a judgment based on their behavior.

    I had a few minutes and went through the first 8 pages of this thread.



    He's requested more facts... because he's under the assumption that Martin probably did something to incite the gunman. He also believes the story being provided isn't based on factual evidence because the media is biased.

    Everything Sjackson said in this post is true. How hard is that to comprehend ATW?

    What's sad is that it took him 8 pages and multiple days to express any remorse for the victim.

    Prove what?? I'm not going through 50pages of bickering to prove something to you. You go back and read it. It's pretty clear that Bigtexx and Gwayneco both wanted everyone to hold their judgments until the trial was over because the media is bias and Also Zimmerman probably had just cause to shoot that kid.

    There is no insecurity anywhere in me....I don't have to prove something to some old ass man who refuses to read an entire thread, but want someone to prove something to him…If you don’t believe me, who cares old man. Go read it yourself and don't choke and die while you're at it

    If a tree falls in the woods and no one hears it....did it really SHUT THE HELL UP

    Didn't you know? The family has always just wanted money from the ultra-rich 28 year old college student.

    He didn't say that in any of the posts you quoted. He threw out hypotheticals. All that work, and you just proved that he did indeed not say that Zimmerman probably had just cause to shoot Trayvon.


    Nope, and your post proves that it is not. It is yours and Sjackson's conclusion that he is voicing his doubts because of that. But he didn't actually say that.

    I don't even agree with bigtexxx and gwayneco. I just find the hysterical lynch mob mentality of some of the posters here, going even so far as accusing them of wanting to murder black people, wanting to see them mauled by dogs, beaten up, etc. etc., very disturbing.

    That was the clear implication. This is just as obtuse as BigTexx saying we need more facts.

    Two peas from the same pod.

    ATW aka Sir Jackie didn't read **** I knew he didn't....I just wasn't going to go back a justify my point. It was irrelevant...totally irrelevant, but he just wanted to argue with me and that makes his day I guess. I mean...had he read the first 8pages he would see clearly, but it's gets better.................there are 50pages in all of the same mess.

    They both (bigtexx and gwayneco) are arguing the same point. Zimmerman probably had just cause to shoot that kid and we all should hold judgment because the media is bias.

    And Gwayneco....you're just lame. You are a typically RIGHTWING NUT. You make conservatives like me ashamed. You are just like the idiots in congress... you want to win an argument so bad, that even when I present you with something you agree with...you still disagree, just because. Even though it is indeed how you really feel

    I'm done. I never defended Zimmerman. I defended a process. That's a distinction that is apparently too subtle for some here. I've said all I wanted to say. There is no need for me to comment further until there is some actual news on which to comment. Adios.
