Zimmerman Case

Wow you talk alot of ghetto pussy crap on this board brah. You are like Mr tough Guy Pussy Canada Sh*t Talker.

^ Hahaha nice one blake.

Bhodi, change your name to “Mr tough Guy Pussy Canada Sh*t Talker”

Sure thing but first I want Blake to challenge me to a fight and tell me he’ll pay for my airfare to get to SF like he did with some other poster here.

Because not only is he stackin them dollas buying $25K cars with all cash, he is also one of the hardest to ever post on AF. That or the guy just needs some resperidone and some time in the psych ward.

My schedule in September looks pretty good Blake.

^ Nice! No taking your hockey skate off. That’s an automatic disqualification, Mr tough Guy Pussy Canada Sh*t Talker.

Just remember bodhisattva “Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.”

Like I said before, I actually listened to (or watched) most of the trial. You could make a case that it’s “right” that Zimmerman pay for shooting Martin. But luckily, we live in a world where the law is pretty clear about what it takes for a conviction. There’s a high burden of proof that must be met before we deprive someone of their freedom and put them in jail. The prosecution came nowhere near clearing that hurdle.

I also happen to think that Martin was pretty culpable. He seemed like a punk, and Zimmerman seemed like a pretty upstanding guy (not some Ramb wannabe, which is how the media and the prosecution tried to portray him). It’s sad that Martin won’t have a chance to grow up and maybe have turned his life around.

But I’m still glad at the verdict - it was the right on by the law and the evidence.

When I went through my court case my lawyer told me that the issue with testifying is the jury is pretty good at following the burden of proof, but when you testify they often will start to push more of that burden to the defense side. This is why it is generally better that you not testify unless you really think you need to combat a strong prosecution argument.

That puts me at a serious disadvantage, because I have been on ice skates probably less then 20 times my entire life.

Sometimes, I wonder if that means I am not actually Canadian.

Thats 100% true, but I am not angry at all, I just like talking shit and fighting.

You both need to cool off together with a Snapple… and a bag of Skittles… I’ll pay for it in cash…

P.S.

Just a reminder, Zimmerman is not white. I really am getting pissed off by everyone calling this a white vs black thing. It’s latino vs black. Hernandez vs Lloyd.

Business as usual in America…Black kids still perceived as thugs and “punks” and whites still alright . Here are some facts for you "

  • In 2005, Zimmerman, then 20, was arrested and charged with “resisting officer with violence” and “battery of law enforcement officer,” both which are third-degree felonies. The charge was reduced to “resisting officer without violence” and then waived when he entered an alcohol education program. Contemporaneous accounts indicate he shoved an officer who was questioning a friend for alleged underage drinking at an Orange County bar.

A jury of 5 white B****s and one ?..go figure

FREE OJ

Yes–a jury of 5 mothers.

And…a jury of his peers.

I learnt this weekend that I was wrong. He CAN be tried for both murder and manslaughter.

Personally–I think murder was overkill–especially second degree murder. But I probably would have thoght long and hard about manslaughter. Dude did get out of his car to approach the “guy who was up to no good”, even against the police dispatcher’s advice.

And a lot has been made of the fact that the kid attacked Zimmerman. Well, if I’m walking down the street and some guy gets out of his car and grabs me by the shoulder, I’m probably going to attack him, too.

The question is not whether, in the jury’s opinion, Zimmerman committed the crime, but whether there is reasonable doubt regarding Zimmerman’s guilt. In this case, the prosecution could not prove that the threatening screams in the audio recording were Zimmerman’s. They also could not establish that the injuries to the back of Zimmerman’s head were not caused by an attack by Treyvon Martin. The evidence was just insufficient to prove Zimmerman’s guilt beyond reasonable doubt. Thus, the jury found Zimmerman to be innocent.

Takeaways…I can follow a white kid around my neighborhood with my gun cocked, provoke him into a fight, shoot him dead.

^ is this Aaron Hernandez?

But a white kid is probalby smarter than to get into a fight with a darky. Can’t say the same for our dark-skinned friends.
