I don't like the connotation of the "simply" modifier... By "case" I meant not the legal proceedings or charges, but rather the actual situation/encounter between the two men. .

Roger that, thanks for the reply.

BTW sen Reid, retrying zim for the offense is
double jeopardy.
iirc


They are claiming that it isn't double jeopardy, being that he hasn't been charged under civil rights violation laws. Being a federal thing, not a state thing may play into that to, I'm not sure.

Why is Reid even involved in this. He is part of the legislative branch, not the executive branch, not to mention that he has nothing to do with FL. One more example of the thirst for power having no bounds.

It also amazes me that Travon Martin is the one who referred to George Zimmerman as a "creepy assed cracker", yet it's Zimmerman who they claim is racist. Double speak much?

This trial has been a joke of left wing antics from before it began with the Black Panthers putting a price on George's head to our childish and racist President stating that if he had a son, he would have looked like Trayvon, to the State of Florida that fired the State Attorney for not filing charges and the City of Sanford for firing the Chief for not arresting Trayvon. They didn't step down on their own.

The left is foolish and destructive. And there are no bigger racists in the planet, than the the political left. But why can't people seek to understand the law first and protest last? We have some very dishonorable people living in our country.

Obama: The way to honor Travon Martin


quote:

The death of Trayvon Martin was a tragedy. Not just for his family, or for any one community, but for America. I know this case has elicited strong passions. And in the wake of the verdict, I know those passions may be running even higher. But we are a nation of laws, and a jury has spoken. I now ask every American to respect the call for calm reflection from two parents who lost their young son. And as we do, we should ask ourselves if we’re doing all we can to widen the circle of compassion and understanding in our own communities. We should ask ourselves if we’re doing all we can to stem the tide of gun violence that claims too many lives across this country on a daily basis. We should ask ourselves, as individuals and as a society, how we can prevent future tragedies like this. As citizens, that’s a job for all of us. That’s the way to honor Trayvon Martin.




Should this racist punk really be honored?

Fess up, you know deep down that the following is true.

* OJ is guilty of murder.
* Zimmerman is not guilty of protecting himself from a concrete pounding banger thug.
* The racists in the DOJ look the other way while Blacks kill Blacks by the score in Obama's home town.

Any questions?

A sad state of affairs, the link for federal action for zim is not working.

Should it matter, zim was aquitted by a jury
what civil right did zim violate?

so zim has no right to protect himself?

The federal process if persued agains zim is double jeopardy IMO, he was tried once in the matter, any further trials of a criminal nature are DJ,

The martins may have a basis for wrongful death of their son, that will be interesting, because all of the MUCK that the procecutor hid will likley come out, Drug use, violence, various problems that the martins had with travon.

I don't see that being a shoe in either, might be interesting if the martins loose it

I hope that they proceed with it, and the truth about this "child" comes out.

midterms are coming vote the dems out,
Impeach obama AND biden, remove his appointees, investigate them all and start jailing the crooked ******** ***********
while we are at it lets check on "rev al"
I bet there is some dirt to be found.



Hoping for some serious change in '14

the next lefty loonacy, the tsarnov trial
the loons are a already calling for aquittal

I just about shit a brick when I heard that they now, that they lost the murder trial, want to bring him up on Federal charges? The same DOJ that provided money and protesters to further the cause? How could he get anything but an unfair trial? If he was cleared in murder by a jury of his peers, how he could have violated anyone's civil rights. Especially since he has black family members, petitioned for a black person who was abused by a white police officer AND is hispanic. The longer this goes on, the more it seems like someone is trying to start some shit.

Unfortunately there are two unspoken themes in Afro American "culture".

The first is victimhood, in which everything in life is seen through the lens of being a victim.

The second theme is "thugism", a sort of misplaced machismo that takes as its heroes, not patriots, scientists, or soldiers, but common criminals, and a lifestyle which inevitably includes a spell in jail.

Both of these themes are a recipe for failure in life: together they are positively toxic.

I've mostly avoided this thread, since no one except the assault victim, Zimmerman, knows for certain who attacked who first.

Now, after a fair trial with crooked Judge & crooked Prosecutor results in not guilty of Murder, ( absurd, political ) OR Manslaughter, ( possible, unlikely ) The President Of The United States has stated his intention to milk this to destroy the Constitution by using hate and fear.

He's going to milk this, because the "zimmerman trial" has been a godsend to him, as no one has been talking about Obama's support for murderous, rapine, terrorist deposed dictators in Egypt, or Obama's support for cannibal, murderous, terrorists in Syria, possible with WMD's in the form of captured poison gas. ( captured from the Syrian government, which recieved large stocks from Iraq before the Previous Prez. freed the country from THAT terrorist supporting dictator )

Not to mention ( because people are not, too busy with Trayvon! ) the NSA scandal, the Fox scandal, the Snowden scandal, the Eurozone NSA scandal, the IRS intimidation scandal, the Attorney General's repeated perjuries, the President's Executive Ownership of the hundreds of murdered Mexican's & Americans HE is responsible for in Fast & Furious, and.... and..... and....

Obama should Kiss Zimmerman and slide him a million $ for giving people something OTHER to talk about than his incompetence, dishonesty, and treason.

The only racism here is that used by various evil folk to advance their agenda.

The lies still spouted by "media" talking heads when the transcripts are available to all are appalling.

The "reporter" who cranked it up after asking if it's "ok to kill black teenagers", is one of them.

Let me give you a bit of advice sweetie. Yes, it's ok to kill a teenager, of any color, if he's beating you to death. The law in your state, and the voices in your ear bud may tell you differently, and your own fake indignation as you read a teleprompter may blind you to all but race, ambition, and the progressive agenda taught you in school, but, yeah, self defense is allowed. If you WANT to just let others kill you, feel free, but don't expect any other afterlife than Hel, a cold place of infinite boredom where the passive and stupid await the end Times. ( if THEY can tell ME I'm going to Hell, for what ever reason, I can tell THEM they are going to Hel for being fools, tools, and agents of despair )

At this point I'd be lucky to remember not to punch out any NBC, MSNBC, CNN, etc, "reporter" that sticks a mike in my face. It CAN'T make their reporting of me less accurate.

Seen this on Orlando Craigslist "Rants & Raves".

"You won't recognize me. My name was Antonio West and I was the 13-month old child who was shot at point blank range by two teens who were attempting to rob my mother, who was also shot. A Grand Jury of my mommy's peers from Brunswick GA determined the teens who murdered me will not face the death penalty...too bad I was given a death sentence for being innocent and defenseless.

My family made the mistake of being white in a 73% non-white neighborhood, but my murder was not ruled a Hate Crime. Nor did President Obama take so much as a single moment to acknowledge my murder.

I am one of the youngest murder victims in our great Nation's history, but the media doesn't care to cover the story of my tragic demise, President Obama has no children who could possibly look like me - so he doesn't care and the media doesn't care because my story is not interesting enough to bring them ratings so they can sell commercial time slots.

There is not a white equivalent of Al Sharpton because if there was he would be declared racist, so there is no one rushing to Brunswick GA to demand justice for me. There is no White Panther party to put a bounty on the lives of those who murdered me. I have no voice, I have no representation and unlike those who shot me in the face while I sat innocently in my stroller - I no longer have my life.

So while you are seeking justice for Treyvon, please remember to seek justice for me too. Tell your friends about me, tell you families, get tee shirts with my face on them and make the world pay attention, just like you did for Treyvon."

I've mostly avoided this thread, since no one except the assault victim, Zimmerman, knows for certain who attacked who first.

Pretty good information is known that gives you the ability to piece it together quite well.

From early depositions we know that Travon said he wasn't going to run from Zimmerman, but rather was going to confront him.

From Zimmerman's 911 calls we know he broke off his following of Travon and was working out with the police exactly where to meet the responding officer.

From court testimony we know that Travon had time to get to his house if he had gone in that direction. We also learned that the final altercation was much nearer Zimmerman's car than Travon's house.

This all fits with Zimmerman's accounting of the events.

Basically, had Travon run toward his home, he would have made it there safely, unless Zimmerman could have run faster. Had he been heading toward home, the final altercation would never have happened so near Zimmerman's car though. In fact, had Travon walked any direction, he would have been farther from Zimmerman's car. This is physical evidence that Travon either made no attempt to get away at all (this conflicts with Zimmerman's 911 call and testimony), or Travon came back to that area. The second part of that backs up the deposition of the girl friend stating that Travon was going back to confront the guy, despite her pleading with him to run away.

We also know that Zimmerman had at one point stopped chasing Travon. We know that Zimmerman was working out exactly where to meet the responding officer.

About the only jump in logic we have to make is who initiated the violence. Was it the one who was working with the police for a meeting point, or, was it the one who told his girl friend that he wasn't going to run, but rather confront the person who had been chasing him? So really, what is the most likely scenario?

Let's put this another way, given all of the above, had Zimmerman not killed Travon, would all of the above be enough to convict Travon of assault, beyond a reasonable doubt?

Sure, Trayvon assaulted George. That's pretty well established.

It's possible in a bizzaro world that George chased down Trayvon, hauled him back to his car, and then dove backwards into the ground while clutching Trayvon's hands and beating himself with Trayvon's fists to gather physical evidence for assault while the whole thing was a setup to allow a racist white guy to murder an innocent black youth.

Except of course for the near impossibility to do such a thing, the fact that George isn't white, isn't racist, and isn't strong enough to yank Trayvon's fists into his own face hard enough to do such damage against Trayvon's will.....


Unless George is really an alien mind controlling creature from the 7th dimension whose vast mental powers somehow were able to get a human to attack him, then hold still while he shot him, but NOT to convince the President to give him the keys to the nuclear launch codes so he could irradiate the 8th dimension, or convince Rev. Sharpton to not make money on this, or Eric Holder not to pay taxpayer dollars for paid protesters, or the Judge to be fair, or .............

I can get more ridiculous, but I'm not even close to the level of insanity shown by the Prosecutor, the President, the Attorney General, or most of CNN.

I stand by my statement, I don't know what happened in the critical moments when no one except the assault victim, George Zimmerman, had (witnessed) the initial physical confrontation.

The Jury, hearing far more than I have, declared George not guilty. I have zero issues with that, since it sure as heck looked like self defense to me, the police, and most sane people.

My point is that the full weight of a racist, leftist, administration is using this poor guy to distract everyone from the criminal incompetence/subversive agenda/criminal fraud of the President and his minions.

That's Cracker.

Not trying to be picky, but slurred ethnic slurs can be confusing, insulting, and tend to indicate a person that never learned to red cursive, or understand the concept of "oath".

Most "ethnic slurs" are labels applied to people we want to be ok to treat as not-human.

In war, "gook" "fritz" "charlie" "raghead" etc. help to dehumanize the enemy and make it less traumatic to kill them. ( usually clearing one village after "Charlie" has been though and finding the tiny, desecrated corpses is enough to ease the guilt, ask any Vet. )

Domestically, ( U.S.A. specific ) "the N-Word" ( registered trademark KKK ) was intended to dehumanize those the slave owners wanted to exploit.

Often "wog" "Barbarian" "Yankee" etc. was used to indicate the natives of lands the "dominant culture" was visiting, invading, exploiting or exploring. This practice goes back to ancient Greece.

Today slurs like "gun owner" "tea party" or "denier" are used to, again make the target not human and so ok to exploit, kill, or enslave.

I hope that Zim owns them, then not-so-sharpdum, then NAACP [ the new klan ] then CNN, perhaps the prosecutor as well.

I saw a post on IIRC gretawire, If I understood it correctly, because he was acquitted zim can't be sued by the martins over the shooting by FL Law....

Zimmerman started the anti-defamation suit against NBC last December but was stayed pending the outcome of the criminal trial. Zimmerman is now free to continue his civil case against the Liberal racists at NBC.

Interesting reading for anyone trying to better understand the "mechanics" of how racial hate-baiting works in present-day America:


quote:

What do Steven Pagones, Kareem Brunner and George Zimmerman have in common?
Posted by David Gerstman Monday, July 15, 2013 at 4:48 pm


Al Sharpton aided and abetted by the media

Now that George Zimmerman has been acquitted in a court of law, it’s reasonable to review how the case progressed. Breitbart provided a useful timeline. Here’s the third item:


quote:

March 13, 2012 – NBC’s Al Sharpton Uses MSNBC Platform to Stoke Phony Racial Narrative



Joel Pollak, Breitbart editor, elaborated:

quote:

The next day, March 12, Al Sharpton’s National Action Network issued a statement in which Sharpton called for a “complete and thorough investigation” into Martin’s death. He added: “[W]e are told that racial language was used when the young man reported his suspicions to police,” a misleading claim later disproved by transcripts of the 911 call, in which race was first raised in a question by the dispatcher, not by Zimmerman himself.

On March 13, Sharpton devoted a portion of his program on MSNBC, PoliticsNation, to the Trayvon Martin case. He interviewed Martin family attorney Benjamin Crump, who reiterated the accusation that Zimmerman was “white”: “We think Trayvon Martin didn’t know who the heck this white man was who approached him before he got killed.”



Sharpton was one of those who shaped the narrative that the killing of Trayvon Martin was a hate crime that needed to be prosecuted.

The predators eat their own.

After the State blew the case, Angela Corey fired her IT director who was concerned that the persecution, I mean, prosecution, had withheld evidence from the defense. Angela Corey should be disbarred for life.

It is WAY passed time to flush the likes of Angela Corey, NBC, Sharpton, Jesse Jackson down the toilet. These vile racists are sickening.

A cracker isn't a white person.
A cracka is a cop
Tryvon would definitely "whoop some ass" if he was confronted
