George Zimmerman Arrested Again In Central Florida [W:351]

Re: George Zimmerman Arrested Again In Central Florida

Perhaps I'm missing something ..

That wouldn't be surprizing in the least

but I haven't read your posts talking about republicans having a LOWER approval rating than EITHER Obama or Obamacare.

I haven't seen you post any proof that they do

Could that be because Zimmerman, Obama, Obamacare, Clinton, or Michael Jackson prevents you from getting to that truth?

since the republicans are not POTUS...it is irrelevent.

..OR, could it be that you post the partisan view .. just like democrats and liberals .. just like all partisans?

you are hardly one to lecture anyone on being partisan....

I always love it whenever some race-baiter brings up Emmitt Till. Funny how they always forget to mention that there were two black men involved in his kidnapping and murder. Those two black men were never charged for their part in the crimes.

I love it when the right attempts to contort obvious truths into the silly. :0) I'm trying to figure out how to do this without breaking any rules, :0) but talking to conservatives is a lot of damn fun.

I'm a "race-baiter" because I have the temerity to bring up Emmitt Till. That's funny .. and real telling.

You skipped right over the point .. tragedy as impetus for change .. and you ran right for what surely be intelligently categorized as silly.

There is just too much fun to be had with this post :0) but I'm cool with just demonstrating how you evaded a serious conversation.

Re: George Zimmerman Arrested Again In Central Florida

Re: Till.

Here's a stunning historical fact foya'sall:

In 1921 John Williams, former plantation owner, became the 1st Southern white man since 1877 to be convicted for 1st degree murder of an African American and it would not happen again until1966.
 
The examples several posted during the endless Zimmerman threads did not inculde the reasonalbe verbage. Since you did not include a link, are these quotes from the Florida law?
it would help if you actually read the law.....
 
Re: George Zimmerman Arrested Again In Central Florida

old news. and they forget to mention that Zimmerman is less than two years older than this woman and that all of the alleged incidents took place while both were juveniles. At worst, even if everything she claims is true, Zimmerman is guilty of misdemeanor sexual misconduct.

Jul 15, 2013 .. Maybe you missed that in the article.

what serious conversation? the Emmitt Till murder was made out to be pure racist hatred. funny how that could be when two black men helped kidnap and kill him.

bull****. the first crap you posted was indeed old news. all that crap about him allegedly molesting his cousin came out last year before the trial even happened and has nothing to do with his current arrest.
 
Thanks.

that's the one. and it shows that even if Zimmerman was the one who started the fight, he would be covered under this law. If Zimmerman did not start the fight, the measure for self defense is even lower

While unfortunate, I'm not sure the TM case can be rightfully described as a tragedy. And the fact that it lacks any real racial elements, beyond those that have been slapped onto it, make it a rather weak case to fight for social change on. In fact, what social lesson one is to even take away from the entire thing remains a complete mystery to most, even those seemingly "fighting" for it

I can appreciate your sanely spoken perspective, although I don't agree with any of it.

Start from here .. you don't speak for most. Not by any stretch of the imagination. The Till case is iconic, forever emblazoned for all time in history as exactly what it was, the racist murder of a boy by a thuggish mob in the racist American south. Murdered because he supposedly dared to whistle at a white women .. when in fact, Emmitt Till had asthma.

Point being, irrespective of how you view Till or his murder, history has already written that story .. and it's already written the story of how his murder became the impetus for the greatest social change in American history.

AS for the Martin case .. it just keeps making the point.

1. you keep ignoring the fact that this "thuggish mob" contained two BLACK men. I wonder why? could it possibly be because that FACT doesn't fit your agenda?

2. are you seriously trying to claim that people with asthma cannot whistle? :laughat:

Just asking ..

I wonder what the approval rating of socialists are in the US.

I'm still scratching my head over the claim that people with asthma can't whistle. :lamo

My oldest son had childhood asthma and he used to drive me crazy with his constant whistling
 
Re: George Zimmerman Arrested Again In Central Florida

GZ has been arrested three times/

One: Felony with Violence on LEO
Two: 2nd degree murder
Three: This recent domestic violence change.

He's got FIVE mugshots on record.

I was saying he had three arrests since his acquittal, which was clearly wrong. But, what you show here is a clear pattern of lawless behavior. And, it's pretty good evidence that suggest he probably never will be able to get his record expunged, if convicted.

:0) Most Americans don't have a clue of what socialism is .. but Social Security and Medicare are two of the most popular programs in American history.

Whatever its popularity .. the right is worried about it.

THAT'S THE POINT.

They claimed that Till whistled at a white woman .. when in fact, he had asthma which caused him to whistle.

an equally ridiculous claim.... and the hits keep on rolling :lamo

The facts of what transpired in the store are still disputed but according to several versions Till may have wolf-whistled at Bryant.[22] A newspaper account following his disappearance stated that Till sometimes whistled to alleviate his stuttering.[23] His speech was sometimes unclear; his mother said he had particular difficulty with pronouncing "b" sounds, and may have whistled to overcome problems asking for bubble gum.[24] According to other stories, Till may have grabbed Carolyn Bryant's hand and asked her for a date, or said "Bye, baby" as he left the store,[12] or "You needn't be afraid of me, baby, I've been with white women before."[25] Carolyn Bryant later asserted that Till had grabbed her at the waist and asked her for a date. She said the young man also used "unprintable" words.[26]

no mention of whistling due to asthma. in any event, he did more than just whistle. not that anything he did warranted being murdered, but let's at least try to be somewhat honest. Till was not murdered because he was innocently "whistling" due to asthma. (FWIW: there is a marked difference between the sound of whistling and the sound of wheezing due to asthma. I lived with a child who had asthma for 19 years and am very familiar with the sounds associated with the condition)

I can attest to the fact that high pitched wheezes are often described as "whistle". As airways constrict, your breathing can take on that quality.

I have yet to see any evidence that Emmitt Till had asthma or that if he did that it caused him to whistle. The only thing I have ever seen is claims by his mother that he sometimes whistled to cover or cope with a speach impediment.

In any event, he was not murdered for simply whistling.
