    Some people really do lack a sense of humor.

    I don't drink and I don't have kids, I have no reason to care. Why, what's the legal drinking age these days?

    Naturally everyone used the one thing that was wrong in his statement as an excuse to completely miss the point.

    I'd normally agree, but this is another round of "How Out of Touch With the World is Forbin?" 'Cuz, he don't seem to know a lot about things that are pretty common knowledge to the rest of the world. :facepalm:

    Thanks, I was gonna point that out. Seems to be a habit lately.
    It's more fun to make fun than discuss the point, I guess.

    Hm.

    I was in high school in 1973, which is the last time I cared about the legal drinking age.

    Just an FYI Forbin, but the drinking age in New Jersey is no longer 19 either.

    This has to be a fucking joke. Not even the charicature of Forbin could be so fucking clueless as to walk through life FOR THIRTY FUCKING YEARS not noticing that the legal age for alcohol was 21. EVERY fucking gas station, liquor store, wet restaurant, bar, grocery store, every place that sells or serves alcohol has a mandatory fucking sign posted, but Fuckin Forbin has missed it for three god damn decades. :jayzus:

    Blissfully ignorant of the world around him, like a child skipping through a patch of daisies, marveling at the butterflies... :lol:

    Jesus fucking Christ.......

    It's not whether you win or lose or have the ability to defend yourself that is the problem.

    It's the fucking attitude that Martin was a "kid" because he was seventeen and should have been easily handled by Zimmerman. That somehow Zimmerman is less of a man because he didn't just bitch-slap Martin and make him cry. You can brag all you want on this board but you too would not be able to bitch-slap Martin and "handle" him if you had fought him that night.

    You may get in the ring with Martin and win but your're going to pay for it. It's not going to be easy. That's the point.

    Zimmerman an average sized man not in the best of shape went up against a seventeen year old in great shape. It doesn't mean Zimmerman is a "big boy got handled by a child" because Zimmerman wasn't a big boy nor was Martin a child.

    I'm not a big drinker like most of the drunks on this board but God Damn even I know that laws.

    Are you sure you're not a cyborg and you just erase things from your memory that you consider unimportant.

    Maybe he gets up in the middle of the night and goes wandering down the street yelling, "DE-LETE! DE-LETE!" until somebody shines a penlight at him.

    Well, now you're just being facetious. There were no photographs of either person, and because of that no way to judge the physical condition of either one of them. :rolleyes:

    Ya like how that works?

    Well, you bothered to look it up and all, just figured you should know the real deal, which is that it's 21.
