That FUCKED UP jury might have set this son of a bitch free but I will NEVER believe the shit that cowardly, child molesting, boy murderer says and he probably should be worried every fucking day as hell that someone, someday soon will stand THEIR ground and draw just a LITTLE faster than he ever could. NONE are so blind as those who WILL NOT see!

Just like with OJ, maybe he can go back to jail for other crimes. And I'm sure those guys in prison would welcome him with open knives, I mean arms of course.

Nope, nothing hateful there.
Did you happen to read the link I posted?
I highly recommend it, not because of the author of the post, but because of the real author. I happen to find the example of Martin Luther King to be quite inspiring and also somewhat humbling.
I know that makes me a bad DUer in the eyes of some, but there it is.

(37,573 posts)His house was bombed - his wife and one year old baby were inside.
He writes on page 137
"By this time the crowd outside was getting out of hand. The policemen had failed to disperse them, and throngs of additional people were arriving every minute. The white reporters inside the house wanted to leave to get their stories on the wires, but they were afraid to face the angry crowd. The mayor and police commisioner, though they might not have admitted it, were very pale.
In this atmosphere I walked out to the porch and asked the crowd to come to order. In less than a moment there was complete silence. Quietly, I told them that I was all right and that my wife and baby were all right. "Now let's not become panciky," I continued. "If you have weapons, take them home, if you do not have them, please do not seek to get them. We cannot solve the problem through retaliatory violence. We must meet violence with nonviolence. Remember the words of Jesus 'He who lives by the sword will perish by the sword' I then urged them to leave peacefully. "We must love our white brothers," I said "no matter what they do to us. We must make them know that we love them. Jesus still cries out in words that echo across the centuries: 'love your enemies; bless them that curse you; pray for them that despitefully use you' This is what we must live by. We must meet hate with love."
I say that Martin provides an awesome example of the way the best people should respond to murderous violence towards even themself.
Now you may say that he is a proven failure, since he was killed at a young age. But he is honored every year on a national holiday (even if many of the people honoring him do not read his books or even try to follow his teachings) and the person who threw that bomb is buried in an obscure grave.

(6,086 posts)stories and recounting history BUT a VERY real thing. I have 7 relative lynched between 1919 & 1960: a racist farmer tried to set fire the little wooden house my Grandmother was in with her NEWBORN BABY: an uncle had to flee his nice home and prosperous farm in MISSISSIPPI in the dark of night. because a little birdie warned him that the "night Riders" were on the way to first beat, mutilate then burn him in said home BUT not before taking a few things they wanted because a n*gger wasn't supposed to have things nicer than they did.; the Klan in Rice Texas road on my Greatgrandfather and family, ( they called his the white n*gger) because...you got it., He was too prosperous. I'm sure the fact he was Irish married to a LITERAL "Ebony Beauty", didn't help. That part of my family REFUSED TO RUN. Instead, they laid a trap. They positioned themselves in the HUGE oaks, willows and elms,with guns loaded with rock salt, Aiming for the glutes, legs and arms/ The Klan showed up on Horseback & my 7 great uncles, ggrandfather & a various cousins & friends Unloaded on them. Apparently, these morons didn't expect black folks to fight back....and they couldn't get out of there fast enough.
The next morning, Grandpa went into town to talk to the sheriff but was shocked at what he saw.
His friends, (the sheriff, 1 on his deputies, the MAYOR, the pastor at the largest white church in the county and many others he played poker & dominos with), were LIMPING, ON CRUTCHES, IN SLINGS. He turned heel and rode him BUT needless to say, they NEVER again bothered with my GGranfather WILL.
This is REAL to me as I have been followed through stores with enough money to buy anything I wanted: brother has had POLICE TRAIN GUNS on him, (holds a degree in Physics, w/a minor in both astronomy and astrophysics),, as he pulled up to his OWN HOUSE: father was arrested at gunpoint for an armed robbery,police claiming that he fit the description and was released when the booking officer compared the description: the perp was about 5'8", 130lbs bald with a yellow complexion, while my father is DARK reddish brown, at the time, 6'6", 250lbs & a FULL HEAD OF HAIR! Hell, when I was a newlywed, my husband and I went to park in one of the parks along the Sacramento River, where alot of people go, at dusk. We were talking and the next thing we know, LIGHTS ARE TRAINED ON US AND AT LEAST 10 red laser dots on us. There were at least 5 cruisers, around us. They asked why we were there and who we were. Luckily,we'd just gotten married and had a copy of our licence in the car. I was then told that they thought I was a prostitute and Brian, my john because there'd been alot of that sort of activity in the area...REALLY??! Even if that's been the case, did it REALLY require 10 cops, 5 cruisers and at least one shotgun? In fact, I'll NEVER again darken the door of John Ascuaga's nugget because in the late 80's, I was there for New Years with my , then fiance. I was standing behind him while he played Black jack. I was PULLED away by what I can only assume was security and told to leave because they though I was a HOOKER? W...T...F!
Save your books and read them yourself because it's NOT a book for me but reality & there's NOTHING you can say to change that fact.

(53,830 posts)Thanks for posting these gruesome photos of what beating victims really look like afterwards. And what they don't look like (the zimmerman photos).
The link below is to a story on a guy that got knocked cold after banging his head once on concrete, not the 20-30 times that lying zimmerman claimed had done to him yet he was able to get up and walk away with scratches only.

The jury must have been predisposed to acquit. How could they not see through zimmerman's lies?

(60,212 posts)He had a scrape on his chin. That was his only visible injury.
Oh, and he also had a broken leg, a broken collarbone, a ruptured spleen, and a concussion resulting in amnesia, and his hospital stay cost over a million dollars.
But just looking at his external injuries, he was "fine."

(1,699 posts)From day one it was obvious Trayvon had not done what Zim said. He got away with murder. For now.

(6,086 posts)the victim of an attempted suffocation, had his nose pinched during the same attempt & had his head "REPEATEDLY"into a concrete sidewalk!! There's NO WAY things happened /like he claimed and all he got were the boo-boo's that DIDN'T require a visit to the hospital, a CT, ONE STITCH or even an appropriate bandage! NO FUCKING WAY!
i've suffered falls onto concrete, ( skating accidents), hit, my head ONCE and gotten a GOOSE EGG, DUCK EGG, (DUHICKEY, for those from the south & Midwest), a visit to Emergency & a sleepless night under my mother's watchful eye. I'm not sorry to tell you that what he said happened and HOW it happened is a bunch of straight out fuckery....PERIOD!!

(6,086 posts)your posts. Goes to show that that not all are the humane reasonable & decent human beings they at first appear to be, which will change my habits. & BTW, I NEVER said anything about being killed, HOWEVER I would point out that this person DOUBTLESSLY ended up LOOKING like he'd been beaten, NOT to mention the BRAIN DAMAGE and/or broken neck THEY WOULD HAVE and last but certainly NOT least, the visit to a hospital, either ICU or the Morgue. DAMN.

(60,212 posts)I think Zimmerman THOUGHT he was getting a worse ass-kicking than he was actually getting, and in that respect he was full of it.
This case is problematic for a variety of reasons, and there aren't easy answers.
I know Zimmerman's injuries don't look bad at all, but saying "He looked fine on the outside and therefore he was lying about being afraid for his life" is ignoring the realities of TBI and also ignoring the fact that Z's a coward.
If it was a woman who ventilated her husband after he broke her nose and scraped up the back of her head, would we be so dismissive of her injuries? Would we be saying that she should have waited until her injuries were more severe to use her firearm?
We know the cops showed up two minutes later and that Zimmerman would have probably been fine, but Z didn't know that. Hindsight is 20/20.

(6,086 posts)because there's NOTHING suspicious about wearing a hoodie in the rain, walking through a complex or talking aon the phone, What made him a "suspect" in fat fuck's eyes was the color of his skin. He and his "lawyers" actually made a point of saying the reason he followed Tray was because there'd been break-ins by black males. If he truly was acting as some crazy iteration of NW, ( which by the way WAS NOT in place at that condo complex. early on, the National spokesperson for NW said that there was NO Registered branch there. Besides, NW trains all it's branch members to OBSERVE, hence Neighbourhood "WATCH" , why the hell didn't he tell Trayvon that he was NW and was just watching because there'd been break ins in the complex? That LIAR said the reason he didn't tell him who he was was because "HE WAS SCARED"...UH, WTF? REALLY??
Nope, he was looking to play billybadass with his new gun and Trayvon was just the punk, ( NOT was I heard and I've listened to it NUMEROUS times...he said C**N, not pUHnk. I have an ear for language and I KNOW WHAT I HEARD!) to die that night.
XemaSab
(60,212 posts)and probably racist, but being stupid and racist doesn't make him Hitler.
Z was the adult and the man with the gun. That makes him responsible for what went down.
However, the physical evidence didn't support the prosecution's version of events, their witnesses were flaky, Trayvon's own dad said that he didn't think Trayvon was the one screaming on the 911 call... The prosecution's case sucked, and no amount of hand-wringing on DU is going to change that.

(6,086 posts)courtroom that jurors, "FOUND OUT ABOUT" after deliberating. Me and countless people think that it's a more than a little shady that juror was the wife of Omara's FRIEND, anoher lawyer and they were allowed to visit with their families when they were supposed to be sequestered and she jumped up in front of cameras to talk about her BOOK DEAL? REALLY? How the fuck did she get a book deal SO FUCKING QUICK? NOPE, as a member of a family who have COUNTLESS stories of being followed, attacked AND lynched, I don't buy this fuckery. His story was so full of holes it whistles in a high wind.
