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

Yet they keep throwing it out there like it is undisputed fact (kind of like "settled science" if you know what I mean). Not sure how some people can be so completely simplistic. You would think they would want to think for themselves instead of being furnished with an opinion.

 

That's just awful for him. I can think of no worse possible fate resulting from that encounter than to have to live with it.

 

I remember reading about the following story a long time ago. Drunk driver killed someone, part of his sentence was to write a $1 check every week to the victim's parents. I can imagine that's got to be a pretty grueling thing to do, unless you're just one cold-hearted individual.

As opposed to the alternative (being beaten to death) I'm sure he'll deal with it.

 

More likely that the community insurance company will be paying since he was the Neighborhood Watch Captain.

 

Good grief, there's no need for hyperbole.

 

The alternative was not create the confrontation in the first place.

 

You apparently are confused as to who "created" the confrontation. Let me guess...you saw it on the news.

 

No, I've been following ... when one person is walking home unarmed and the other person is following that person armed, there is not a doubt in any rational person's mind about which person is creating the confrontation.

Now stop being this sock puppet, at least to me. I don't care to discuss this with the fake you.

 

I don't blame you for bowing out. Again, show me one shred of proof or evidence that Zimmerman "followed" Trayvon Martin. Like I said, if you are following someone you do not hesitate to give the police dispatcher your address because you do not know where the person you are supposedly following is located.

You are wrong so stick that in your sock puppet and smoke it. Yeah, you should probably stop discussing this with me since I clearly know what I am talking about and you clearly know what you hope to be true. But has been proven wrong.

Take a hike, son.

 

Fixed.

Jesus Christ, have you REALLY watched the trial? Have you REALLY listened to the ENTIRE 911 call (not just the chopped up version played on TV)?

I'm being sincere. Look, at one point I believed Zimmerman was "hunting" this kid down. That was before I started actually looking at FACTS and stopped listening to what Nancy Grace was screaming at the top of her lungs.

 

Don't fix posts by making them wrong. You are injecting your opinion of what that bad black teenager was probably up to. I was stating a fact. That is an enormous difference and I don't know why you need to alter facts like that.

I have not watched gavel-to-gavel coverage of the trial. I have listened to the 911 call. In my entire life I have listened to approximately 30 seconds of Nancy Grace and that was long ago. You seem like you really, really want to put people in a box here.

Is is standard Neighborhood Watch duty to be armed? Is that what the Neighborhood Watch program advises? So he was doing his Neighborhood Watch duty being out there with a gun?

He was following the kid and he had a gun. If you read my post again, without your bullshit and chickenshit "fixes," you will find nothing factual to argue against in it.
