    Ok, excuse the piss out of me. People can be anywhere in public they want to be unless it's a taped off crime scene. :rolleyes:

    And I do know what I'm talking about.

    Knowledgable regards,

    Obama's as white as he is black

    probably more "white" since he was raised by whites, attended Harvard, etc

    In most forensic situations intermediate is 18 inches to 1-2 inches... At least was years ago when I was involved in prosecutions.

    You mean to tell me he couldn't have outrun fat ass Zimmerman? Give me a break. He decided to fight because he thought he was a hard ass that had probably whooped up on a lot of people before.

    Race is determined by who raises you, where you go to school, etc.? Wow!!!

    I don't think anyone is saying he was a great kid. Hell I don't even think he was an average kid, but it really has no relevance. He had mar1juana in his system, not PCP.

    The facts list is wrong at least on the supposed fact that Trayvon was bragging about hitting or swinging at a bus driver on facebook. That isn't a fact at all.

    Those are the WORST. I once saw Willie Nelson rip off a waiters head and **** down their throat after over cooking his steak coming off a reefer binge. Just bad stuff folks... True story, never over cook Willie's steak.

    Did race play a role those times GZ called to report suspicious white or Hispanic males?
    I guess that the fact that GZ in the 911 recording wasn't sure if TM was black.

    Using your logic gender played a part...

    You always make sweeping generalizations

    Of course the whole thing was avoidable, many self defense hypotheticals are. It really has little weight in the case from a legal standpoint unless Florida has some unusual exception.

    I am sure the leaks were from GZ's attorney. Nothing surprising that they would leak evidence beneficial to their defense in the forum of public opinion. They know that a majority of the jury will already have strong opinions prior to jury selection.

    The State leaked evidence earlier. At this point it is gamesmanship between the attorneys.

    he's more 'black" because he has made the conscious decision to identify with blacks... going to Africa to embrace his father's legacy, changing his name to Barack, marrying a black woman, working for black causes, even adopting Christianity because he considered it an African American institution. Don't know why you'd even mention Harvard when there's many African Americans at Harvard and Obama got in specifically because he was black when his grades and boards were below average for whites, let alone Asians.

    He might have considered himself more white when he went by Barry and had white folks raise him but Obama is more black than say Tiger Woods who basically considers himself white (once told Oprah he's not "black") even though he was raised by a (mostly) black man and is like 3/8 black but only 1/8 white.

    Going to Harvard is a "white" thing? Thanks for telling us how you think. Let it shine.
