trayvan martin

I can't believe there are 688 pages on this and you all are still kicking around speculation that would have no legal bearing whether it was true or not. None of the things attributed to Z without evidence would have created a license for Martin to have attacked him. No matter how much he was followed, or if Z called him a coon to the dispatcher, made it ok for Martin to attack him. So it was still self defense. You can't go around attacking people because they pisss you off. If you do and they shoot you, it's self defense.

Zimmerman walks and because of this effort to railroad him, he will be a millionaire. He deserves it for what he's been put through. Shame on all you racists who wouldn't have a thing to say if Martin had been white, or Z had been black!

lmfao!!!!!!


Please show me where I EVER said that Trayvon was an adult! Minor is probably a better term than "kid" though. He was under the age of 18, which IMO, makes him a young man, or a minor, but I have a problem calling someone who is mere months away from legally dying for his country a "kid". BTW, you REALLY need to brush up on your reading comprehension. Maybe you and Bucky could do a little studying together. lol!

"are you following him"

"yes"

i'd call that chasing somebody.

apparently neo-cons in this site think all chases look like this:



lol

if martin had been white and Z black, Z would already be on death row.

I've used my gun in self defense in 3 seperate incidents since I left the military. I've never had to fire it, just draw it. I have a CCW permit, but don't carry anymore. It's not really necessary nowadays as I'm now living outside the city quite a distance. The scariest thing that ever happened to me was a burglar broke into my home in the middle of the night. I heard noises and saw a flashlight dancing around the walls and ceilings of my bedroom. The burglar was actually in my room rifling through my shit as I slept! I grabbed my pistol, which was fortunately right by my bed and drew down on the burglar. It was enough to scare him off. I cringe to think what might have happened had I not had my trusty piece near my bed that night.

I don't see how anyone with a straight face can say this case hasn't been loaded with race from the start. Immediately it was "oh boy, we have a white shoots black story, oh boy oh boy oh boy!!!! So from then on the liberal media portrayed it that was, in contradiction to all evidence, and they do so still today. Remember - the goal of librulism is always to convince you of something that isn't true or isn't real.

Attempt to school redivider: The difference between follow and chase is this - chase implies an intent to catch, follow does not and means monitor or be lead. But it doesn't matter, because chasing someone does not mean you forfeit your right to self defense. The libruls are UNWILLING to accept that fact. Remember what I told you about what isn't true and libruls?

Awesome, on my nightstand I've got a 40 S&W Sig loaded with prefragmented Mag-Safe rounds in a biometric flip open safe for just that purpose. You're far more controlled than I am, if I woke up to an intruder in my home, he'd have two in his pump before you could say "Bob's your uncle".

It was a pretty harrowing experience. I'm glad I didn't shoot the intruder, but I'm also glad I had my pistol so close. Maybe he would've tried to harm me, maybe he wouldn't have, but I'm thankful that everything turned out ok. Had he not turned and immediately left, I probably would've shot him.
