kelpdiver 2 #176 July 18, 2013 rushmc The malaria problem has been exacerbated by the gov banning DDT. This ban has killed more people globally than most people know DDT is not banned in Africa. It is still used in some parts, though mosquitoes can develop resistance to it. Cost is no doubt a factor in many locations where malaria and mosquitos are present. wiki: Effectiveness of DDT against malaria When it was first introduced in World War II, DDT was very effective in reducing malaria morbidity and mortality.[22] The WHO's anti-malaria campaign, which consisted mostly of spraying DDT, was initially very successful as well. For example, in Sri Lanka, the program reduced cases from about 3 million per year before spraying to just 18 in 1963[95][96] and 29 in 1964. Thereafter the program was halted to save money and malaria rebounded to 600,000 cases in 1968 and the first quarter of 1969. The country resumed DDT vector control but the mosquitoes had acquired resistance in the interim, presumably because of continued agricultural use. The program switched to malathion, which though more expensive, proved effective.[26] Today, DDT remains on the WHO's list of insecticides recommended for IRS. Since the appointment of Arata Kochi as head of its anti-malaria division, WHO's policy has shifted from recommending IRS only in areas of seasonal or episodic transmission of malaria, to also advocating it in areas of continuous, intense transmission.[97] The WHO has reaffirmed its commitment to eventually phasing out DDT, aiming "to achieve a 30% cut in the application of DDT world-wide by 2014 and its total phase-out by the early 2020s if not sooner" while simultaneously combating malaria. The WHO plans to implement alternatives to DDT to achieve this goal.[98] South Africa is one country that continues to use DDT under WHO guidelines. In 1996, the country switched to alternative insecticides and malaria incidence increased dramatically. Returning to DDT and introducing new drugs brought malaria back under control.[99] According to DDT advocate Donald Roberts, malaria cases increased in South America after countries in that continent stopped using DDT. Research data shows a significantly strong negative relationship between DDT residual house sprayings and malaria rates. In a research from 1993 to 1995, Ecuador increased its use of DDT and resulted in a 61% reduction in malaria rates, while each of the other countries that gradually decreased its DDT use had large increase in malaria rates.

"Dispatcher Sanford Police Department. Zimmerman Hey we've had some break-ins in my neighborhood, and there's a real suspicious guy, uh, it's Retreat View Circle, um, the best address I can give you is 111 Retreat View Circle. This guy looks like he's up to no good, or he's on drugs or something. It's raining and he's just walking around, looking about. Dispatcher OK, and this guy is he white, black, or hispanic? Zimmerman He looks black. Dispatcher Did you see what he was wearing? Zimmerman Yeah. A dark hoodie, like a grey hoodie, and either jeans or sweatpants and white tennis shoes. He's here now, he was just staring. Dispatcher OK, he's just walking around the area… Zimmerman looking at all the houses. Dispatcher OK… Zimmerman Now he's just staring at me. Dispatcher OK-you said it's 1111 Retreat View? Or 111? Zimmerman That's the clubhouse… Dispatcher That's the clubhouse, do you know what the-he's near the clubhouse right now? Zimmerman Yeah, now he's coming towards me. Dispatcher OK. Zimmerman He's got his hand in his waistband. And he's a black male. Dispatcher How old would you say he looks? Zimmerman He's got button on his shirt, late teens. Dispatcher Late teens. Ok. Zimmerman Somethings wrong with him. Yup, he's coming to check me out, he's got something in his hands, I don't know what his deal is. Dispatcher Just let me know if he does anything, ok? Zimmerman (unclear) See if you can get an officer over here. Dispatcher Yeah we've got someone on the way, just let me know if this guy does anything else. Zimmerman Okay. These (expletive) they always get away. Yep. When you come to the clubhouse you come straight in and make a left. Actually you would go past the clubhouse. Dispatcher So it's on the lefthand side from the clubhouse? Zimmerman No you go in straight through the entrance and then you make a left, uh, you go straight in, don't turn, and make a left. (expletive) he's running. Dispatcher He's running? Which way is he running? Zimmerman Down towards the other entrance to the neighborhood. Dispatcher Which entrance is that that he's heading towards? Zimmerman The back entrance…(expletive)(unclear) Dispatcher Are you following him? Zimmerman Yeah. Dispatcher Ok, we don't need you to do that. Zimmerman Ok. Dispatcher Alright sir what is your name? Zimmerman George…He ran. Dispatcher Alright George what's your last name? A clicking or knocking sound can be heard here Zimmerman Zimmerman Dispatcher And George what's the phone number you're calling from? Clicking or knocking sound is heard again Zimmerman [phone number removed] Dispatcher Alright George we do have them on the way. Do you want to meet with the officer when they get out there? Zimmerman Yeah. Dispatcher Alright, where you going to meet with them at? Zimmerman Um, if they come in through the, uh, (knocking sound) gate, tell them to go straight past the club house, and uh, (knocking sound) straight past the club house and make a left, and then they go past the mailboxes, that's my truck...[unintelligible] Dispatcher What address are you parked in front of? Zimmerman I don't know, it's a cut through so I don't know the address. Dispatcher Okay do you live in the area? Zimmerman Yeah, I...[unintelligible] Dispatcher What's your apartment number? Zimmerman It's a home it's [house number removed], (knocking sound) oh crap I don't want to give it all out, I don't know where this kid is. Dispatcher Okay do you want to just meet with them right near the mailboxes then? Zimmerman Yeah that's fine. Dispatcher Alright George, I'll let them know to meet you around there, okay? Zimmerman Actually could you have them, could you have them call me and I'll tell them where I'm at? Dispatcher Okay, yeah that's no problem. Zimmerman Should I give you my number or you got it? Dispatcher Yeah I got it [phone number removed] Zimmerman Yeah you got it. Dispatcher Okay no problem, I'll let them know to call you when you're in the area. Zimmerman Thanks. Dispatcher You're welcome." I dont see where it says he lost sight of Martin and was returning to his vehicle to await police. I just saw him say he was following Martin. I am sure you guys can point out where he gave up chasing the kid down. If I understand you guys correctly....You are saying Martin ran away from Zimmerman, circles around after Zimmerman hangs up with 911. Attacks Zimmerman....(there is no evidence of a fight at his truck as far as I know)....and then runs away AGAIN and is caught between the houses where he is ultimately killed in self defense by Zimmerman? Even with that nonsensical story Zimmerman still pursues Martin after hes safe.... What are you guys talking about? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OHCHUTE 0 #184 July 18, 2013 z tell cops to call him when they arrive. That's after cops ask him if they should meet Z at the mailboxes which he doesn't agree with.. It is apparent Z would still seek Martin as he didn't agree to meet cops in a set place. But for anyone to surmise what happened next, is purely conjecture. We do know Martin ended up on Top of Z.

Ill play the role of "guy who smoked a joint and got the munchies and went to get skittles". You play the role of world protector from evil. I am walking down the street, you spot me. Im looking suspicious (probably because im high wandering around eating skittles enjoying my day, and you don't understand how thats possible) so you phone 911. You comment about how suspicious i look with my skittles and you start to slowly follow me down the street. Im young, stoned, and eating skittles when suddenly I see a creepy ass dude in a truck following me all child molester slow on the street. It freaks me the fuck out, so I run away. You stop your truck. Then I decide, fuck that, I am no pussy, and circle back to your truck. You have gotten out presumably to wait for police, since you weren't chasing me. I run from behind the bushes and attack you like a ninja. I kungfu on you a little bit, and then run away again in between some houses. You catch me (even though you are fat?) and we wrestle. I get on top of you, so you have no choice but to shoot me with the gun you had all along. Well shit, now that I typed it....it makes perfect sense.

I took the liberty of illustrating my point in paint. On the left you will see Martin coming past Zimmermans truck, circling around and attacking Zimmerman (who does not pursue Martin) and Martin subsequently dying. On the right you will see Martin coming past Zimmermans truck, proceeding through the neighborhood, and dying in between some houses.....Zimmerman who has not moved to pursue Martin, somehow managed to kill him from his original location.... http://imgur.com/hPTjuz0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
linebckr83 3 #194 July 18, 2013 It is obvious you didn't want any of this trial, or you would answer your own questions. "I don't want to give away my number, I don't know where the kid is." Sounds like he lost sight of him does it not? Dispatcher asks for an address, GZ says he walked up the side walk to get that house's address. If you watched the trial and saw the evidence you would know what side walk I'm talking about. The phone call ends there. He says he was walking back down the sidewalk and as he approached the T intersection TM approached him from behind and to the left. Again, if you watched the trial and evidence you would know what I'm talking about. Do you know anything about the timeline of this event? That was a slightly rhetorical question. Do you know how much time passed between when GZ lost sight of TM and when we know the altercation occured? Based on call records and testimony of the woman who called 911, this was determined in court. The gym owner who was training GZ said he was "soft" "out of shape" and on fighting ability a "1 out of 10 skill level". Have you seen pictures of TM that your liberal news channels don't want to show you? The ones that show him shirtless and ripped? Did you see in trial the cutouts that counsel created of the two men? Did you see which person was actually bigger? Of course not, keep watching the news. Now please explain to me how a soft overweight, nonmuscular man could lose sight of a strong fit young man, chase him down when he couldn't even see him, and seemingly run for about 4 minutes straight. Your "scenario" makes no sense. Just because you want to believe GZ chased down a poor innocent little boy and killed him cold blood doesn't mean it is even remotely accurate. By the way, saying he is walking down the street eating skittles and in fear of his life is b.s. and everyone knows it. For one, the package wasn't opened yet. And two, many people now believe he was buying skittles and Arizona watermelon to make purple lean which is a drug drink. ZM also said he looked like he was looking in people's windows as a possible burgler. True? No one knows for sure, but since we now know TM was most likely involved in jewelry theft, I'd say it's probable. Why do you refuse to deny all the evidence and testimony presented in trial? I'd say it's because you have no idea what any of that is. Unfortunately the real character of TM is revealing itself post trial now. The cause of this fatality, imo, originated well before the day of the shooting. There's a certain culture in this country that thinks it's cool to abuse drugs, start fights, steal jewelry, and illegally own and use guns. The problem is that he became part of that culture. You should really review the Florida Teen Shot thread and educate yourself on the facts before coming up with ridiculous scenarios that have been disproven in court. Or maybe we and the jury are all just idiots and you know the true story. "Are you coming to the party? Oh I'm coming, but I won't be there!"
