    Wow, some might think one would live a quiet, anonymous life after shooting a kid and getting off. But not our hero George, who apparently is adding o his gun collection while grinning ear to ear. Oh yea... in fear...

    Why is Zimmerman "rubbing it in"? No matter what the legal situation is, he still killed a person, and it's a tragedy that he should feel some responsibility or remorse for, even if he is not legally responsible. Seems unnecessary to take a photo like that.

    It looks to me that the gun manufacturer probably reached out to GZ and after the trial he visited their business and someone at the plant asked GZ to take a picture with him and then proceeded to sell it to TMZ.

    Smile on GZ. Enjoy the rest of your days.

    sure.

    1. TM bought ingredients that could go into "lean"
    2. He then walked slowly in a suspicious manner through the neighborhood
    3. Due to a number of home invasions in the area, a neighborhood watchman who was trying to help went to go talk to him.
    4. TM ambushed the watchman, pummeling him and causing injury
    5. The watchman shot TM out of self defense
    6. The police determined that no arrest was needed
    7. Race hustlers wanted their fame, so they claimed this was an evil white man killing a 10 year old black youth.
    8. The media ate it up, smelling an opportunity to profit $$$$
    9. Blacks everywhere used this as a way to rage, and point out how they are treated poorly, and how white people are the devil
    10. Obama said that if he had a son he'd look like the illegal drug user who ambushed the watchman
    11. Law enforcement was shamed into arresting the watchman
    12. The watchman was found not guilty
    13. Blacks decided to use this incident to rage again, with multiple black on white violent incidents following, as well as protests and demonstrations

    lesson learned: media bias controls peoples emotions -- even without facts.

    No...the lesson is you group all black people together. I'm responsible for what some crime a Black person commits on a white person. If that is the case, then shouldn't you be responsible for that white guy raping and killing that 6 year old in North Texas?

    Stop grouping Black people together.

    BTW....Trayvon Martin had not been convicted of anything. No Criminal record. No PROOF he used lean. More white people used Weed than anyone.

    TM had lean in his system - it's in the autopsy report.

    so you're wrong. no clue what you mean about grouping black people together but I'm sure you're wrong on that, also.

    Its really sad when we must resort to emotions and stereotypes in our judicial system over pure simple facts and evidence. If that was the case, there would never been a trial in the first place.

    When the trial is surround by race baiting and other nonsense, paticularly TM being portrayed as a 13 year old little boy out to get skittles and gunned down w/out warning from behind, yes, ZM is forced to play his stereotype too. The fat pudgy nerdy mexican was all part of the show. Its sad that stereotypes play an important role, but the simple fact remains that a clean cut well dressed individual is going to fare much better than a sloppy dressed thugish person.

    The sad thing was is that GZ was in that neighborhood working with disadvantaged ethnic children helping to get them on the right track.

    None of the blacks I know were raging and calling white people devils. Here is where I make the assumption that you have a problem with all black people. You take a small portion of idiots and paint an entire race with your broad brush of hate.

    You hate everything black...from the President to the Projects.

    You're a coward and don't even have the balls to own up to your hatred and intolerance.

    It's also interesting that you have no comment on the child raping murderer thug Tyler Holder....I guess that's because he is white. It's only the threads highlighting the negatives in minorities that you don't miss an opportunity to make your a$$hole remarks.

    So you just took a small portion of people (your so called "friends") and uses it to paint an entire race in a certain light...

    So are you saying we should just assume all blacks want riots??? I don't understand this post. I would just rather judge by the individual as the post you quoted suggested.

    Well, if a man from each race living in America were beaten by the LAPD, bloodied by their hounds, and the whole thing caught on camera...

    Which group you'd wager is the most likely to riot and loot over it?

    This country has no problem "being practical" when it comes Muslims and terrorism (Boston bombing? Better be on the lookout every suspicious brown dude) yet the police force gets criticized and labeled racist when they were just a tiny bit cautious over possible riots after the Zimmerman trial.
