I can't exactly see it, but there appears to be a theme

[Bklyn]

Drudge cares about Black people.

On a separate note, I was stopped and had my bag checked this morning by the NYPD. My suit is bespoke.

[AlabamAlum]

A black man wearing a tailor-made? Must be a drug dealer...

[eCat]

you mean like just walking down the street , or you were about to get on a train ?

[Owlman]

walking down the street, eating a tuna fish sandwich

The Drudge theme is backlash over the Zimmerman trial.

[Owlman]

backlash? Did Zimmerman get convicted? Wow. I've been reading the wrong news.

Zimmerman had to go to trial after the police had already determined he didn't break the law.

[Owlman]

The police made that determination the first night. That's a little premature when you have one man armed with a gun and one armed with skittles.

It does show the point, make sure you kill the other person so he can't testify.

Turns out the police were right though. Another casualty of this is the police captain who objected to the Mayor releasing evidence to the public in order to play politics and was fired. Then that evidence was doctored by NBC to make Zimmerman appear racists to serve their agenda.

If Trayvon had lived he would have been locked up for attacking a neighborhood watch captain and nobody would have cared.

[Owlman]

No, he would have testified that he was hit first. He was a teen walking home and getting followed with skittles and tea and was attacked. He was just defending himself and when he got the upper hand, he was shot.

Jail-time, I doubt it.

George Zimmerman has a gun and he is going to hit a kid first? yea...lets get Trayvon on the stand and see how well he does in cross examination.

[Owlman]

Or maybe he'd testify that the Zimmerman confronted him showing him his gun in his pocket and he thought Zimmerman was attacking him so he grabbed Zimmerman and they fought until he was shot. (I had added it, so I'll replace it here).

There is the other side in a court case. It's just not likely that had the unarmed teen in a proper place testifying, he wouldn't have gone to jail.

Here is what I know - had Trayvon lived - and lets assume he went back to his apartment after the altercation. The police show up and see George Zimmerman bloody and he tells him his story as the neighborhood watch captain - and its not that I'm putting more importance on this that it really is, but he does have an established relationship with the police - once Zimmerman tells him he is jumped.

Trayvon is going to jail that night.

There is no story he is going to be able to tell the police that means anything if he doesn't have a scratch on him -especially once he admits that he had a confrontation with Zimmerman. Zimmerman having a gun and Trayvon unarmed is meaningless if he beats the shit out of Zimmerman.

[Owlman]

and lets assume he went back to his apartment after the altercation.

When he gets to the apartment, why would you assume that the parent or father's girlfriend wouldn't have called police when he gets to the apartment? And why are you assuming that he wasn't the one yelling for help so that afterwards, he doesn't run to bystanders to call the police? In Tae Kwon Do, they teach the kids, do enough to limit the person and run


You just can't make that assumption.

This is court. You just can't make that assumption.

We're not in court, we're dealing with the events of that night. and Travyon is going to jail that night . Regardless of what his parents does because Zimmerman had already called 911 to say the kid was acting suspicious. Now Zimmerman gets his ass kicked by the kid and the kid is the victim? Nope, not happening.

What happens in court may be another story altogether (although with pictures of a bloody Zimmerman I doubt the outcome changes), however George Zimmerman would not be the one in trouble that night

[Owlman]

Black kid walking home with skittles and tea, stalked by man armed with a gun? Gets shot, survives and he gets arrested? Yeah, that would have been a nonevent.

up until now we didn't talk about him getting shot, but ok, lets throw that in there.

that makes things different.

first he goes to the hospital, then he goes to jail.

and why the focus on skittles and tea? All you care about is what happened before he decided to kick Zimmermans ass. He could be dressed in a priests outfit throwing holy water around for all I care. Skittles and tea...is that the symbol for I'm a good kid?

[Owlman]

Actually, this is what I said earlier: No, he would have testified that he was hit first. He was a teen walking home and getting followed with skittles and tea and was attacked. He was just defending himself and when he got the upper hand, he was shot.
