[QUOTE=galenmarek;41450696]There not many people here to convince that Zimmerman is innocent. Clearly the man wasn't the smartest around but if you're watching the stream it's pretty clear that most of them are uninformed and have resorted to just claiming that blacks are oppressed and are in the middle of a race war and that this was just another case of a white man killing yet another black innocent teenager when it clearly isn't the case.
The added irony that most of the people shouting about this in the stream aren't even black including the streamer himself.[/QUOTE]
There are many examples and incidences of institutional racism in the American justice system.
This trial was not one of them.
Obama's PR team were pretty stupid to allow him to pull the whole "If I had a son he'd look like Trayvon" thing.

Skittles and Arizona tea...
Skittles + Arizona Tea + Robitussin = Drank Or Lean[/QUOTE]
Sad thing that woman is misinformed about the drink. He had the Arizona watermelon drink. Just goes to show you these morons paid no attention to the trial at all. But that has been said 1000 times.
[QUOTE=Warriorx4;41450705]I'm not watching the stream, so you're just posting to keep people updated with the current happenings of that protest okay that's coo. I thought you were just being dumb.

Nah, it's okay. You should really watch it though for a good laugh. The other protests are a bit more tame though so it looks like it will blow over without too much incident. Here in LA the LAPD are on the radio already getting ready for large crowds and so has Florida apparently so far as silly as these people may be they are completely non-violent so they can do whatever they want as far as I'm concerned.

It is indeed a problem but not as big a one as these people are making out to be. If they were protesting about someone who was legitamately murdered in cold blood for being black then I would actually be supporting these protests.

To be fair he got duped like all of us when this whole thing started. At the time all we knew of Trayvon was that old ass picture of him when he was like 13-14, not the newer ones with guns and him flipping off the camera.

I wonder how much money has been made off sold Arizona Iced Tea due to his debacle

Regular people being duped is forgivable. The president of the united states, who is surrounded by PR advisers on constant basis, should probably be a bit more informed.
and skittles.
This case doesn't seem as clear cut as a lot of people here are making it out to be. A lack of evidence doesn't prove anything. By law he's not guilty but it doesn't mean he isn't at fault.

This so much. Most people here are just glad that the whole "innocent until proven guilty" worked. But I feel that since there wasn't much evidence that I still think there was a little more involved.

No one actually fucking knows. This is an extremely stupid thing to argue about. They found him innocent, and no one can actually prove he is guilty. Whether you wanted to assume that he did murder Trayvon out of racism be my guest, but unless you have reasonable proof (that hasn't been presented at all) no one can say anything.

Wait a second, do you know something about the trial that the public doesn't? What is this evidence you are withholding? What is your goal?
[QUOTE=cecilbdemodded;41450860]This is by far the funniest post of the night.[/QUOTE]
Because he's right? The justice system can only declare Zimmerman as not guilty, but not innocent. See: O.J Simpson or Casey Anthony.
[QUOTE=cecilbdemodded;41450860]This is by far the funniest post of the night.[/QUOTE]
Why is it? No one knows the full story, so no conclusions can be made.
[QUOTE=Starpluck;41450884]Because he's right? The justice system can only declare Zimmerman as not guilty, but not innocent. See: O.J Simpson or Casey Anthony.[/QUOTE]
He's not right unless he actually knows with 100% certainty that Zimmerman is not completely innocent. None of us know for sure.
americans truly are disgraceful, actually happy that this idiot went free ROFL

Well holy shit, I completely missed that post. Thank you for quoting it again for ease.
The shittiest thing about this whole case is that they use this case as a start to fix the justice system. As if this is the case to start when justice was actually fair.
[QUOTE=Pelican;41450945]americans truly are disgraceful, actually happy that this idiot went free ROFL[/QUOTE]
Oh okay so you've just decided he's guilty because you can totally do that.
I suspect another riot tsunami hitting ny by the morning but thankfully I live in a quite small or medium or large town. I say medium or large town but anyways my cousin got mad about him not getting accused. I had to cringe.
I like being able to play the devil's advocate in cases like these.
people think the justice system translates to "EYE FOR AN EYE SEND HIM TO THE CHAIR"
[QUOTE=Ylsid;41448541]Banned user gonna be mad[/QUOTE]
Actually I couldn't care at all really. In fact, I was almost certain he would be acquitted, and I'm 100% sure Trayvon attacked him without any real instigation. The justice system did exactly what it was supposed to do and I'm really glad it turned out that way. I was worried emotions would get in the way of evidence and facts, but everything turned out much better than I expected. I just hope people allow the justice system to do it's thing and not take it into their own hands and start breaking things because they're mad at the verdict.
apparently people think because we agree with the verdict, we're okay with the fact that a 17 year old kid died...
i'm getting that vibe with a lot of twitter posts.

i don't think the majority of the people behind the twitter posts are capable of thinking that far ahead.
Someone needs to go on the JUSTICE4TRAYVON page and post:
Hell Yea! Can't simmer the Zimmer!
