Gravitymaster 0 #1451 April 19, 2012 Quote Quote I'm thinking this: Maybe Corey isn't so stupid after all. Obviously there is pressure from the political arena to come up with something to bring Z into court and the evidence doesn't support a successful prosecution. So, she bows to the politicos and writes up a mess that she knows will be blasted and unsuccessful. Problem solved: We tried but it didn't fly. Sorry, Al Sharpton. Well, it could be, right? I was thinking the same thing. Me too. In the meantime the circus disbands and everyone goes home until June when another Judge dismisses the case for lack of evidence.

Coreece 190 #1458 April 19, 2012 QuoteQuoteQuote...Duke University released a study on Tuesday that examined the impact of race in jury polls in Florida, and there's good news and bad news. The bad news is that, according to the study, which looked at 700 cases between 2000 and 2010, all-white juries are significantly more likely to convict black defendants than white defendants. The good news is that a single black juror can alter that dynamic... keep up the good work! You're making such a difference in the world by crying wolf all the time. Thanks. Whites have got to be educated out of their racism. perhaps, but it's obvious you only bolster it...face it, it makes you feel good to wallow in hate.Your secrets are the true reflection of who you really are...

wlsc 0 #1464 April 19, 2012 ...The profiling issue exploded into national consciousness earlier this year with intense media coverage of the story of the boy who came home from a convenience store with a snack for his brother only be shot dead by a volunteer neighborhood security guard. Last week, Florida investigators concluded that George Zimmerman had “profiled” Martin as he passed through a residential neighborhood in Sanford, Fla., on Feb. 26, resulting in an altercation in which Zimmerman shot Martin. Zimmerman has been charged with second-degree murder. The standing-room-only crowd in the Dirksen Senate Office Building demonstrated how the social media campaign to demanding “Justice for Trayvon” had revived the profiling issue in Washington. The last time Congress held hearings on anti-profiling legislation was the summer of 2001, when revelations about the profiling practices of the New Jersey and Maryland state troopers had prompted a broad-based sentiment that using race and ethnicity to make traffic stops was fundamentally wrong and unfair. Profiling is “wrong and we will end it in America,” said President George W. Bush in February 2001... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

toolbox 0 #1467 April 19, 2012 *** No doubt they will,after the Feds check up on Ted Nugent. Right,we have freedom of speech,as long as it does not piss the powers that be off. The panthers can make threats because they are an organized militant group with sympathy from the white house on their side. Ted on the other hand is just an eccentric old rock star who is very outspoken. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I CAN see Corey coming up with this solution. After all it makes all the power people happy.....and it only cost Zimmerman a little time in jail, money he doesn't have and besides he shot the kid.......
