    Right. If they don't rush to Trevon's defense automatically, in absence of definitive proof either way, then they are racists.

    You can take "racist until proven innocent" and jam it up your ass sideways.

    What makes it really funny (not hah hah funny) is that Zimmerman isn't white either. He's hispanic.

    I don't care if he's black or white.

    That's not the issue.

    The issue is so many people looking for justification for carrying a fucking gun. That's all this is about.

    I don't need to justify carrying a gun. Or asking a random stranger on the street what he's doing.

    What makes it really funny is that this case will have an impact on the law, and not only in Florida. And threads like this will be a contributing factor.

    Keep up the good work!

    Well, you're the one leaping to all that, I'm just saying, I'm a lot scarier than that kid, howcome I've made it this far without being blown away?

    Surely there must be a brilliant glowing reason the size of an aircraft carrier I'm missing, and merely need pointing to.

    Surely.

    Start with the fact that Maine doesn't have a Stand Your Ground law.

    I have no problem conceding that Zimmerman may very well have singled Martin out for being black. It changes nothing. Being a racist fucktard doesn't give anyone a free pass to beat on you.

    I didn't say you did. But, why are others so quick to jump all over me for expressing my opinion - and don't give me any fucking bullshit about ignoring facts. I haven't ignored any facts. I have ignored all the hypothetical possibilities and that's what has everyone's panties in a wad.

    Why? Because, they so want to believe Zimmerman needed to carry that gun.

    In honor of the fallen Trayvon a group of students protesting his shooting show their support for Trayvon......by trashing a Walgreens..:wtf:

    http://www.local10.com/news/Police-...tore/-/1717324/9719674/-/xctonpz/-/index.html

    Also the Obama camp is now selling Obama 2012 hoodies..really?

    http://www.wtam.com/cc-common/news/

    And the Black Panthers increased their bounty on Zimmerman to a million and the address that Spike Lee tweeted as being Zimmerman's turns out ot be wrong and now some poor woman is being harassed by Lee's goons...and the Travon circus moves on.:rolleyes:

    I'm not sure that's true, but for the sake of argument, it's not a matter of belief. No individual needs to convince you of his "need" to exercise his rights.

    Not in Florida.

    This is true. A justified shooting is expensive. Zimmerman will be dealing with that bill for a long time.

    We got proof that happened?

    What if he whacked his face against a tree like Shane?

    I know if I were fresh off a murder, I'd take some breaky-nosey over some assey-rapey.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's the only difference between Diacanu and Trayvon Martin.

    For some reason I just can't see Diacanu punching a guy in the face and beating his head into the ground just because the dude asked him what he was up to (while visiting a strange neighborhood that had recently had a string of burglaries).

    "Whitey" ain't the one insisting on arresting Zimmerman without the proof necessary to do so in accordance with the law. It's usually the one calling for the lynch mob who's butthurt.

    Well in all fairness I'm sure that if the KKK put a bounty on the black teens that set a white teen on fire, Eric Holder and the Dept. of Injustice would ignore it as well.

    Oh hell, who am I kidding!!!!

    Not that I'm aware of, and I utterly fucking refuse to assume either way so I can earn my "SEE! I'M NOT RACIST! ACCEPT ME, PC SOCIETY!" merit badge.

    I never said they did.

    But, if that's not the cause of this irrational reaction to me not taking hypothetical possibilities into account, then why the anger?

    It's the only logical reason for the anger directed at me in this thread.

    No it won't.

    It's all a dog and pony show. The anti-gun people have no where near the votes to overturn much less modify Florida law on this subject. The Governor has set up some stuff just to get people off his back.

    And if per some chance they got the votes those who voted with them would be thrown out of office in the next elections. Just like the ones preventing Stand Your Ground the first time were tossed and just like on a national level a lot of Democrats got tossed for the AWB.

    Florida is a gun friendly state.

    And I seriously doubt that any other state will be under serious jeopardy if the law is already on the books.

    Now I would support making a law that anyone involved in a shooting has to have a blood and alcohol test. But the changing or getting rid of Stand Your Ground? Not even worried about it.

    No, the reason for the anger towards you is you're stupid.

    No. I can ignore you just fine without the use of the ignore function built into this program.

    But, please, put me on ignore. Cuz I so hate seeing your name come up whenever I post something.
