What I got was Martin was the defendant and Zimmerman was the victim. That and none of this would ever have happened if Martin was white. Prosecution was lame, the police were lame, letting the crime scene going cold before being forced into doing something.
I am glad I have nothing to do with Florida and I would rather go to walmart and buy something made in China before I ever drink another glass of Florida orange juice.

This is the stupidest thing you have ever said and you have repeated much right wing wacko stuff over the years.

Not that any of this matters.
LOL

Actually I really can understand people very well from a very little. I admit it's too little from too far for my opinion to be completely accurate in this case but you can bank the probability I am right is greater than the probability I am wrong about this juror.

I laughed because several times in my life I have been accused of being clairvoyant by folks who could not understand how I could understand them so well in such a brief time.

One of my few true talents.

The system did not work well is this case. That is what I said.

Don't be such an ass. You know damned well what I meant AND said.

Meh. I'm over the (lame) verdict.

Our legal system has a high bar and accepts that scum like Zimmerman may go free in an effort to minimize innocent folks being incarcerated.

I can live with that.

Why?

Because Zims's life is going to be a lot less pleasant for him on the outside than it would have been in a nice, comfy and safe cell in Protective Custody with three meals per day, TV and a library where he could have grown fatter.

He'll be looking over his back for the rest of his life which is fitting punishment for his cowardly and gun empowered kind.

According to the jury, color had no role in this.

Yes, this juror actually said this out loud!

I guess I'm not as gifted as you, noone, to know that when someone asks me a question and uses the words "the system" that they really mean something else.

And, yes, I'll try really hard to meet your expectations in the future and not be such an ass....

Anyone here catching the toxic stream from the far right. Limbaugh is playing the great white victim card and the white buffalo ropin' child molester is spewing some of the most sickening words I've heard. Wow.

Obviously. And probably because of folks just like you, Zeke.
