And if this is a case of self defense (like I think) IF it is not, then everybody involved, George, His family, friends, EMT's LE, everybody are in one big conspiracy.

And I doubt Nancy Grace will ever apologise (sp) to george zimmerman nor anybody else.

Didn't she do the same for the Duke Lacrosse players?

Al Sharpton's comments amount to blackmail if u ask me...


Will give others the message that it is ok to riot and loot innocent people's property and businesses!   Al and Jessie need to call for calm instead of inciting reprecussions if his demands are not met.
And don't forget tweeting home addresses.  What's going to happen when someone decides to burn down a house and an innocent child or elderly person dies?  People should calm down and let the system work.

Could GZ sue NBC if it turns out that he was acting in self defense?

Are allowed to post links to the Daily Caller? because TM's whole Twitter account is posted there and he does talk about women in a derogatory manner and his references to drugs.

His parents even denied this twitter account was not his and their lawyer did as well.

Unless they did not know he had a twitter account or if they did not look at his twitter account then they are trying to spin things.

March for Trayron Martin. I believe this is live video.

Another thought, (not mine)

 


WS poster suggested, GZ may have hit his head on the lawn sprinkler.
The poster had a photo of where the sprinkler and the rustle on the ground.

Ok, about the foundation...... the Martin Family lawyer and TM's mother says they are not going to be making any profit by trademarking "Justice for Trayvon" or "I Am Trayvon".

But yet the copyrighted trademark is for CD's and DVD's.

So is she going to start making CD's and DVD's with her son's image, biography on them etc. and start selling them herself?

She seeked trademark rights to namely  digital media including CD's and DVD's featuring her son and other products.

Ben Crump, an attorney for Martin's parents, told the panel that the family was convinced  Martin was targeted for special attention because of his race, arguing that tougher laws against profiling might have averted the shooting.

Jamcakes,,,,to be blunt, al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson are not interested in any person's civil rights unless they are black...have you ever seen them show up for any other race?  I wish that they were for everyone's civil rights but they are not...

Thank you Cookie, for having the courage to write what I could not.

I have no problem with you posting a link to the Daily Caller.  Almost all links are welcome except links to porn or x-rated sites.  Daily Caller is fine.  Thanks!

I am in no way implying that he  deserved to die, just what his frame of mind might have been at the time of the shooting.

And the fact that his family is trying to spin things when they clearly said this twitter account was not his, even their lawyer denied that this was not his twitter account.

I think the pictures paint a clearer version of what REALLY went down that night.

also, I noticed the police video pictures are much clearer than what was shown in the media.

I just listened to the 911 call. 

"These assholes always get away." (as quoted by George Zimmerman)  "There's something wrong with him."  (really? he can determine that in the dark and rainy night?)  "He's in his late teens."  (he murdered what he knew to be a teenager)

I'm hearing motive and prejudice. 

The kid was minding his business, getting candy for his brother, and was being followed by some man, first in a truck, then on foot.  The man following him, George Zimmerman, has been arrested for domestic assault, attacking a police officer, and lost a job for being too hostile. 

George Zimmerman instigated the entire scenario.  He alone is to blame for what happened that night.  I don't care about Trayvon's parents, I don't care about George's parents, I don't care that Trayvon smoked pot, or was suspended from school.  Children grow and change and many a young brat can turn into a very productive citizen.  We will never know if Trayvon had great things ahead of him because of some chase and trigger happy vigilante wannabe who thinks he knows what a person is up to just because they are walking around in the rain.

That said, this culture of looting stores, treating females like trash, robbing the homes of others, and looking upon the white race as the enemy is certainly a root cause of what ails us.  In light of that, George Zimmerman still needs to face a court of law for what he has done.

From what I have read and heard, I do not believe that trayvon was the aggressor or that he said to Zimmerman upon seeing the gun, you are going to die tonight or what ever was supposedly said at that moment. Trayvon was probably scared that he was being followed in the first place and then when he was confronted with a person with a gun, he may have tried to fight back at that point. Zimmerman should have left things in the hands of the police and left this kid alone! Jmo....I think that Zimmerman's brother was unbelievable. Jmo again...maybe Trayvon did fight Zimmerman but he was probably trying to save his own life. I do believe that it was Trayvon yelling for help that night...wonder how things would have turned out if just 1 person who heard the commotion would have shouted out their window, 'Hey, what is going on out there?  Would it have stopped anything that happened?  Scary maybe, but .....hard to say what any of us would do in a situation like that.

\Hi Cookie--

According to a poster at Websleuths, MSNBC said that the Zimmerman's lawyer said that his brother had not spoken to George Zimmerman for two years and just wanted to be on TV.  I believe it was Trayvon yelling for help and I also believe Zimmerman intended to shoot him from the moment he got out of his truck.  If anyone was entitled to "Stand your ground," it was Trayvon.  Zimmerman instigated the entire encounter and was the agressor.  I don think you can be the agressor and then claim self-defense.
Also Zimmerman has no apparent injury one can see in the tape and looks neat, clothes unruffled, but most importantly, if Trayvon punched him in the nose, there would have been copious amounts of blood on Zimmerman's clothing.  There is none.  If one's nose is bleeding, the natural inclination is to lean forward to prevent the blood going down your throat.   Had the blood gone down his nasal passages to his throat, he would have choked.  That's grasping for straws.  EMTs could have stopped the bleeding by packing his nose, but they would not have laundered his shirt for him. That, too, is grasping for straws.
As to Trayvon's parents seeking the help of Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, they were getting nowhere with the Sanford police, just a run around.  Who else could they have turned to?  I do not admire either of these men, but I do not blame Trayvon's parents for seeking their help.  Further, if they had not done so, there would have been no action taken, no grand jury, no special prosecutor, no Justice Department, no FBI.
Trayvon would have ended up just one of many young black males murdered under mysterious circumstances and his parents would just have to live with it.  Thank God, those days are over.
Of course Zimmerman and his family are going to say "self defense."  What else would they say?  Certainly not, "yeah, I murdered him, so what?"  In fact, that's just about what was said by George Zimmerman in the beginning and the police said, "OK, you are free to leave."
I also don't believe that Trayvon said, after having been shot, "You got me."  Sounds like a grade B Western.  But, of course, that came from his brother, who, if we can believe MSNBC, knows nothing about what happened because he hasn't talked to his brother. Anyhow, he likely was killed instantly and was unable to say anything.

Now, before anyone again wants to comment on my "Unhappy life" and my "Bitterness," may I say that I didn't think that kind of disrespectful post to another poster was allowed here and am disappointed that it was.  I am extremely happy right now because of circumstances in my life and not the least bit bitter.  Have nothing to be bitter about.

What I pray for in this case is the TRUTH to come out.  I don't care about the race of either of the two (even though in my world if I could pull some white activist out when things weren't being heard in an investigation...that incited riots and crap...I would be an outcast).  I am so glad that we can post our opinions on Scared Monkeys...because I might be pretty upset right now...if we were forced to be one sided.
