It's Watch!... Neighborhood Watch. Not shoot.

Nothing very "soft" about it.

 

Always fun to hear a bunch of grumpy white men blather about how black folks should have nothing to complain about now that we let them use the same drinking fountains and generally avoid saying the n-word in public.

 

Who says they shouldn't complain?

I just don't think they're predisposed to riot or murder upon hearing bad news.

 

That puts us "bigots" in direct opposition with the "enlightened" lefties.

 

If I can interrupt the enlightening conversation going on right now with another legal question. Qtlaw: Jeb Bush and others have said the law didn't intend to cover cases like this, and the Tampa Bay Times brought out other cases the law, presumably, was not intended to cover. So why IS it covering them? Or am I misreading it? Are prosecutors afraid a jury is going to buy the self-defense argument, even if it doesn't seem plausible?

 

Wow just wow! Why would you assume that just "black" people would go crazy? Why not white people? Why not liberals? Are you suggesting that black people do not believe in a lawful society? Under what basis do you see that it would be an appropriate response to burn down their community?

I never took you for a bigot, but man you just never know I guess.

 

Alan Dershowitz has some interesting things to say about Zimmerman case:
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/04/25/dershowitz-trayvon-prosecutor-overreached-with-murder-charge/

“If I were this prosecutor, I’d be hiring a lawyer at this point,”

“This affidavit submitted by the prosecutor in the Florida case is a crime,”

“If she in fact knew about ABC News’ pictures of the bloody head of Zimmerman and failed to include that in the affidavit, this affidavit is not the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth,” Dershowitz said. “It’s a perjurious affidavit.”

“If there are riots, it will be the prosecutor’s fault because she overcharged, raised expectations,” Dershowitz said. “This prosecutor not only may have suborned perjury, she may be responsible, if there are going to be riots here, for raising expectations to unreasonable levels.”

“There’s nothing in this affidavit that suggests second-degree murder. The elements of second-degree murder aren’t here."

 

"If"

 

No "if" in this statement:

“There’s nothing in this affidavit that suggests second-degree murder. The elements of second-degree murder aren’t here."

 

At one point (cue 80's music) Dershowitz was a preeminent legal analyst.

Nowadays, he's the Dickie V of legal television. He's Al Sharpton bellowing from the alleyway of Bed-Stuy. What he's not, is the preeminent legal analyst.

Somehow, Dershowitz forgot that prosecutors have immunity, both civil and criminal.

 

"Bad news" is the garbage man forgetting to get your trash.

 

I'm a bigot. Wonderful.

A black male was targeted for walking in the wrong neighborhood, carrying a bag of Skittles and is dead. I'm not the one trying to justify this event.
