[QUOTE=amute;41468160]Because he's an extremly dangerous wannabe racist super hero who murdered a kid? Oh but the jury of white people fed a really paper thin defence found him innocent, so it's fine.[/QUOTE] Zimmerman himself certainly wasn't racist. But there's more likely racial bias than not in the whole case.
I think it's clear law enforcement in this country is biased against black people. I think it's clear that they profile black people, something that everyone got mad at Zimmerman for doing but if cops do it the public seems to think it's okay, and it's clear they won't investigate crimes against blacks as they would the same crime against whites. However, I think it was wrong for people to apply all that baggage to THIS case. If people really examined the so called evidence in this case they would have seen that there was no case against Zimmerman. But they have lumped this case in with all the previous injustices which only causes them to lose credibility in their overall complaints.
I think it would be disgusting if he sold it
[QUOTE=Zambies!;41470069]I think it would be disgusting if he sold it[/QUOTE] Why? If I were him I sure as hell wouldn't want it any more.
[QUOTE=Rents;41470179]Why? If I were him I sure as hell wouldn't want it any more.[/QUOTE] So then destroy it - there are more options than just selling. For him to market it, and then sell it for profit would be hugely disrespectful to Trayvon's family.
How about selling it and splitting the money?
[QUOTE=Crimor;41471139]How about selling it and splitting the money?[/QUOTE] Guns are expensive but I'd want to get rid of it ASAP. Think it would bring back a lot of bad memories.

I really hope the dude successfully sues multiple media outlets. Its character defamation at best. Seriously if the media did not get a hold of this case so early and pump out their antagonizing and misleading bullshit, this problem wouldn't exist. It's ridiculous how easy it can be to alter people's perceptions and how much power these fucks wield with a TV set.
[QUOTE=Raidyr;41471257]Guns are expensive but I'd want to get rid of it ASAP. Think it would bring back a lot of bad memories.[/QUOTE] why? soldiers don't get rid of their weapons after they kill an enemy combatant with it. (don't think I'm comparing zimmerman to a soldier, I'm just making an analogy about the gun.)
[QUOTE=Medicman;41472482]why? soldiers don't get rid of their weapons after they kill an enemy combatant with it. (don't think I'm comparing zimmerman to a soldier, I'm just making an analogy about the gun.)[/QUOTE] Because that was a horrible night for him. He was assaulted and then forced to use his gun in self-defense, killing a 17 year old kid who was right on top of him. That's probably really traumatic. If I were him I wouldn't even want to look at the gun that did that.
[QUOTE=ole johan;41463854]You can name weapons after a kill. Ofcourse you can just say it has a name anyways but it's not the same.[/QUOTE] what the fuck lmao
[QUOTE=Get Swag Son;41462743]nah, trayvon supporters will just go "DIS LAWYER IS RITE THO, WATCH YO ASS ZIMMERMAN" [editline]15th July 2013[/editline] we cumin 4 u[/QUOTE] Wow a blatant racist caricature is getting positive feedback This case really brought out the worst in Facepunch
[QUOTE=Crimor;41471139]How about selling it and splitting the money?[/QUOTE] "Hey, I might have killed your son [I](justified or not) [/I]​with this gun, but please, have some of the money I got from selling it!" How do you think that will go down.
[QUOTE=Mexican;41473406] This case really brought out the worst in Facepunch[/QUOTE] I don't believe that. Its always been this bad. Why are people having trouble believing that Zimmermans life is in danger?
I'd say he should also scratch tally marks on the side but that only really looks cool when you get a few going, otherwise it just looks like you take bad care of your gun. [editline]a[/editline] And also obviously if you're actually proud of the killing which Zimmerman clearly isn't, but i mean this thread hinges on that situation with the naming thing so why not?
Basically, saying Zimmerman's life is in danger is the same as saying there will be riots, or that Obama had to worry about being assassinated. What about the cops who beat Rodney King? They're fine. Or everyone saying the WBC is gonna mess with the wrong people. It's all pessimistic baseless conjecture. Let's face it, Zimmerman's gonna be fine, we're just attracted to the spectacle of it all.
[QUOTE=Rangergxi;41477404]I don't believe that. Its always been this bad.[/QUOTE] Nah the amount of blatant racism popping up in these threads is unreal. Don't try to cover it up by saying it's always been like this. FP has had racists on it, and there have been racist posts before, it's inevitable when you have a community of this size. But the last few days have been terrible.
Somewhat surprised Zimmerman is still alive. Somewhat.
[QUOTE=aarzuu;41478090]Somewhat surprised Zimmerman is still alive. Somewhat.[/QUOTE] What do you mean still? He's been behind bars up until now. Who would have killed him, the T-1000?

I'd argue they're different situations but I guess it's easier to admit, yeah the unexpected can happen sometimes [editline]16th July 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=milkandcooki;41478363]*somebody posts clarification for biology in a medicine-related thread* HEY EVERYONE I KNOW A LOT ABOUT CHEMISTRY LOOK AT ME LOL xDDDD whats the point of your stupid post omg[/QUOTE] His post wasn't clarification for shit it was completely unrelated and unnecessary It'd be more like if I criticized Trayvon for his choice in candy (Skittles? How plebian)

[QUOTE=Muthenfrucheir;41463553]I don't know how these media top cats can live with themselves knowing their misleading garbage is putting an (arguably) innocent man's life in danger, not to mention the riots they will cause.[/QUOTE] Late, but I'd like to refer to a paraphrased quote as a good example of the mentality that would allow these fat cats to live in peace with their crimes: (Takes place on a prison bus) Man 1 (young, supposedly arrested for raping someone): So how did you do it man? How did you rip off so many people and live with yourself afterward? Man 2 (older with graying hair, supposedly arrested for fraud): [U]I didn't think about it.[/U]
[QUOTE=Mexican;41473406]Wow a blatant racist caricature is getting positive feedback This case really brought out the worst in Facepunch[/QUOTE] i guess slang is limited to race/ethnicity now
Traybots: Nahhh, nawww Obama you is a white man. Justice for trayvon.
