I hope that the Martin family takes the whole HOA to civil court and wins. Bulldoze the clubhouse and fill in the lakes and put up a twenty foot tall statue of young Mr. Martin in the middle as a civil rights memorial park.

I'm just a little crazy that way.

edit- Zimmerman is the only terrorist in this case and by all accounts offered by the defense a cowardly one, too.

I bet there will be an out of court settlement offer coming soon from a neighborhood association in Fla. With a gag order!

Actually, I'm the one who is hopeless.

I swore off responding to these threads a year ago, and once again I have embarked on a fool's errand.

There are a number of things that don't work well in the system by which people in the US are brought before the criminal courts, but I still have confidence that our system works better than many many others. I have to conclude that it is better to have a system where someone like Zimmerman has a chance of walking than one in which people can be summarily detained without putting the government to the task of establishing guilt beyond a reasonable doubt (that is unless you are accused of being a terrorist).

A most reasonable response.

If there is a court settlement against Zip a bankruptcy will not protect him. He will still pay. Might take the rest of his life but pay he will.

Naw, he wants to be a Fire Fighter now since being in Law Enforcement didn't work out so well.


All funnin, aside he did do a nice thing and hopefully has changed his life around. Learn some humility and love for his fellow man. Not just a feel good story for consumption.
