Here's a youtube "blog" that I posted about the Zimmerman trial:



That pretty much sums up my view of the whole thing.

Nicely done.

Thanks - don't know why I did it right after working in the sun and getting all sweaty... and red faced. But that's how I see it.

Great video OSOK. Very well put.

Right on. His own poor choices cost him his life.

Well said. Makes perfect sense.

Great video, except this case had nothing to do with the stand your ground statute. It was a clear cut case of old fashion self defense. Why everyone in harping on the stand your ground BS I'll never know. Must have been a media narrative.

Well said sir. No family unit , in fact in my community many are feral. No respect for anything let alone life. Most should not be brought into this world as the "mom and dad" can't afford to feed ,clothe and educate their get. But the taxpayers will do it. And thats the problem.

Where did you read he slapped a bus driver?

Very well said.

Never said he slapped a bus driver.

Yes, I did in the video - I got an email with details of his record. There were a long line of offenses - the last one was slapping a bus driver on a public bus for not letting him ride for free.

Ask yourself what kind of mentality would do that?

I also saw a picture of him from his facebook - he had gang tats all over him - one on his cheek and he looked like a man - not a boy. I don't know why the defense in the case didn't push to get that admitted as evidence. That pic of him in his hoodie is several years old.

Here's an article that details how the police buried Martin's record: http://www.wnd.com/2013/04/police-buried-trayvons-criminal-history/

Just google "trayvon martin criminal record" and you'll get all kinds of information.

158 pounds.

Well said I watch this trail an there no way this should have goting this far. Obama,Holder are in on the push thier all ready looking into what they can do to Zimmermen. What do these nut think thier doing into this

Just to show the absolute hypocrisy and double standard:

http://www.fireandreamitchell.com/2...-by-four-blacks-in-georgia-media-silent/

Joshua Chellew beaten and thrown into traffic and killed by four black 18-year-olds in Georgia.

And not a peep out of obummer or holder. Nothing from the rev uh jesse uh jackson or any other race baiter.

I will say, I do know GOOD parents that have done their BEST to raise a good child, to have that child go wrong.

Sometimes you just can't change things.

So IMHO you are spot on , save for the responsibility was on Trayvon's shoulders alone. ASSUMING the parents did all they could, and thats not a given.

Just saying this for those out there that have done all they can, and still have kids go wrong at times.

Jeff

It ain't about whats right or wrong it's about race.

Travon commited suicide by his own choices.

I'm also hearing some not yet confirmed reports that the 7-11 clerk said Martin stole a bag of potato chips and that was left out of the documents produced to the defense.

Spot on.

It happened to my boy, it took about a year for him to realize all the things I taught him were true and he knew the road he had to take to get back home.

I went from being completely disgusted by him to being damn proud of the way he turned out. His advantage was he had a road map to be able to find his way back, I'll lay money on the table that Trayvon had no map taught to him but the fact remains that all this lays directly on Trayvons shoulders as he made the decisions that got him dead He knew what he was doing was wrong. Gangsta's and Gangsta wannabe's know when they be breakin' da law.

what troubles me is the whole thing was politicized from the start. when getting prosecuted by the gov't becomes a political decision instead of a legal decision things are no longer kosher.

Nice job on the video. Well reasoned and nicely articulated.

OSOK...may I have the link to your "You-Tube" posting?

Here it is Mr. Isaac.

You're just confusing the issue with facts.

linky no work for me, keep gettin the error message


hmmmmmm

It's You-Tube,Randy...not You-Porn.

Definitely not you porn :lol:

Well said. I would only add that, not only his parents, but a large segment of society taught TM that there would be no consequences for poor choices.

Trayvon's dad had a crip tattoo, but had it altered for the media circus.

Thats one I had not read about yet. Doesn't surprise me though.
