I'm understanding that Zimmerman actually has cause to bring civil action and collect damages.

He was investigated and cleared by LEO and the judiciary AND THEN BECAME a victim of racial bias and threats, leading to his arrest and formal charges.

I hope he does and I hope he wins.

Nooooo. I'm still blood thirsty. I don't want him to be successful at anything until I'm over it.

I'm pretty much over the Zimmerman case. I'm interested in reading more about the SYG boycotts though.

Me, too.

I noticed Chris Brown wasn't on the list of boycotting artists.

Really Stevie? What about the rest of the states with SYG laws? Hmmm?

I guess he can't afford to boycott half the country.

Stevie is a nigger.

Tell him his bodyguard can't have a gun. He may change his tune.

Second juror speaks out

"Maddy" is the 36 year old Puerto Rican nursing assistant and mother of 8.

She is the juror who initially voted for Murder 2.

Lots of conflicting statements in her interview.

She says that Zimmerman got away with murder, but there was nothing the jury could do about it under the law.

She also says that murder wasn't proven and the jurors had to put their hearts aside and focus on the evidence and the law.

She says she doesn't think charges should have been brought because the verdict was decided in advance; like a publicity stunt.

She says she feels terribly for Trayvon's parents and would keep fighting for justice if she were them too and she feels she owes them an apology.

She says the case was never about race to her but she didn't want to talk to the other jurors.

http://abcnews.go.com/US/george-zimmerma...d=19770659

She's is all over the 'effin map.

Maybe it will make more sense to watch and listen to her as opposed to reading selected comments. Her interview will be featured on ABC: Tonight: on "World News" at 6:30 p.m. ET and "Nightline" at 12:35 a.m. ET, Friday: "Good Morning America" at 7 a.m. ET

MS, that's an interesting theory but I don't know if the evidence will support it. If the girlfriend's account of the cellphone call is accurate, I believe it made it sound like Z confronted T.

It will be interesting to see a map (so to speak) of where different events occurred.

I would think the prosecution has some evidence to justify their charge although I'm surprised about the 2^nd degree charge too.

The 2^nd degree charge got everyone to calm down.

Does the prosecutor really believe they'll get a conviction on that charge?

Probably not, but it DID settle things down, and now everyone can go about their business of conducting a trial. In the meantime, all these leaks will help limit the outrage when Z is acquitted.

Just reminiscing about the first time I posted here that Z would walk (and I was the first).

However, I was wrong about the outrage being limited.

BTW, Cracker was a helluva poster.

Congratulations.

Yeah, I wouldn't exactly be as proud as punch of guessing that a tosspot would get away with killing an unarmed teenager scot free.

In fact I would hope no one remembered that's what I had said.

This kid is worth more dead than alive, look at the publicity.

Trayvon Martin is not responsible for, nor benefiting from, the publicity.

I wouldn't have imagined you to be one to measure the value of a kid's life in terms of how much attention his death could garner; your own child's life or a perfect stranger's.

Ah well...

I'm just pissed that everyone is using this as some kind of publicity stunt. It seams everyone is using this as a backdrop to show their faces. It was sarcasm.

Sorry, Maggot, should have figured you were mocking the situation.

There is a lot of publicity surrounding the case and it does get tiring. I understand that.

Likewise, it gets tiring for me to hear people insist that Trayvon Martin was just another black thug teen who wouldn't have amounted to anything anyway. Whether one believes his death was a result of self defense or not, it's a presumption that says more about the person espousing it than it does Trayvon Martin and his family, imo.

I'd feel the same about any kid who wasn't in the commission of a crime and wound up dead due to, at minimum, a misunderstanding with an adult that might have been avoided by the words, "I'm Neighborhood Watch and I've called the police".

In my mind, there's no justification to either glorify or crucify Martin, Zimmerman or the jury.

If this case does anything good it will be that everyone voices their feelings towards racism and their ideology of the definition of racism. Someones definition of it may be different depending on geography, religion and the diversity of a particular area. I can only hope that the NAACP and the Al Sharptons of the world can also learn something from this and not stir up emotions in a violent end.

Good luck with that!

This is a snippet from ABC news:

SOURCE

"All six of the jurors were women and Maddy, 36, who is Puerto Rican, was the only minority to deliberate in the racially charged case. Zimmerman, 29, was a white Hispanic and Martin, 17, was black."

White Hispanic? Nice . . . real nice.

I'm surprised Obama has never been described by mainstream media as a "white black" or a "white African-American".

Gee . . . I wonder why "White" is used as an adjective for Hispanic?

Maybe Jesse and Al can help me to understand my confusion.

This was and remains a case about Whitey puttin' down the Negro.

That's fuckin' awful & you know damn well that came from a college educated person.
