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

We have no idea what it "screams."

Every public official and every agency in any way touched by this case is now trying to cover its ass.

 

In this day and age it just seems implausible that the Sanford Police would would chose not to kick the can down the road and leave it to prosecutor to decide.

 

That can pretty much be said about a lot of cities in America, both majority-white and majority-black cities. I've seen it on both sides. I think it has to do with flocking to people you know as much as it has to do with being racist.

Yeah, but if all the people you know look just like you, that's a problem. (Unless maybe you're really good looking.)

 

Stop messing with the narrative!

 

Better late than never for this piece of you fill in the blank.

I am sorry that Geraldo's anti-hoodie campaign failed.

Maybe he can stick to anti-saggie britches. More people would have his back.

Zimmerman will end up in trial. Probably 2 if not 3. He will eventually be charged in Florida State court on a criminal case. The world can debate his actions, but at this point the political pressure to charge him is irresistible.

He will be sued civilly, for $100 million?, in Fed or State Court (as will the homeowner's association) and the Feds may go after him in a civil rights deprivation case.

Justice, Rest in Peace.

 

Perhaps this isn't the place for it, but I think this column worth reading in this context.

Clearly the real victim is George Zimmerman.
