Treyvon Martin issue is starting to irritate the hell out of me

Quote from 377OHMS:

I don't think they should be armed. They're supposed to report to the police, that is it. So why do they need a weapon.

Martin clearly screwed up by assaulting Zimmerman and the ambush makes it justifiable homicide, at least that is what the police think.

But if Zimmerman didn't have a weapon it would have just been a guy assaulted and nobody dead.

You very well may be right on this.
 
Quote from bigarrow:

...You'd better hope if you or your family is ever suspected of something it's a reasonable person like me and not like Zimmerman who approaches.
I'll shoot either one of you. :D
 
Quote from gwb-trading:

...Based on Zimmerman's arrest records for violence, it is far more probable that he attacked the teenager in the opinion of most reasonable people.
But that's not PROOF now is it?

You are quite correct.

There is no proof (or independent evidence) right now on which person physically attacked the other first.

Keep that in mind when making statements like "Trayvon jumped Zimmerman", "Trayvon surprise attacked Zimmerman", etc. There is no proof.

What we need right about now is a special comment from Romney about how there should be no rush to judgement against this HISPANIC individual.
And he should also condemn the bounty the black panthers have put on this HISPANIC individual.

Oh, this is gonna get good.
What if someone finds and shoots Zimmerman and then tries to claim the $10,000 reward. Doesn't that make the Black Panthers an accomplace?

It should make the DOJ an accomplace too for not shutting this stuff down rightaway. I'm sure it is illegal for citizens to put out a reward for for someone's capture or murder.

You are aware his father is white right ?

Republicans join call for Trayvon Martin inquiry

By Michael O'Brien, msnbc.com



Republicans joined the call for an investigation into the shooting death of Trayvon Martin on Friday, adding rare, bipartisan support in the racially-charged case.

The main Republican presidential contenders each decried the shooting of Martin, a 17-year-old African-American, allegedly by a neighborhood watch member, and joined with President Obama and other Democrats in supporting a Department of Justice investigation into the incident.

"What happened to Trayvon Martin is a tragedy. There needs to be a thorough investigation that reassures the public that justice is carried out with impartiality and integrity," Republican presidential frontrunner Mitt Romney said in a statement.

Rick Santorum, Romney's main rival for the GOP nomination, added: "It's a horrible case, and it's chilling to hear what happened ... I think it's pretty clear the problems we're seeing in this case, and hopefully the state Attorney General and local community is reacting and responding, and hopefully this matter will be an example of what law enforcement has to do in a case like this."

LOL that's why I use my head in dangerous situations I like my life.
I know how to not invade someone's space and Im aware of the other person.
I'm out in the public all the time and I try to let people know who I am and what the hell I'm doing there. Early in my construction buss. I did a lot of apartment work, it was always a little nervous about going into other peoples units. The management were supposed to tell the tenants we were working but they didn't always get the word.
You learn how to explain yourself real quick and how to read people and make them at ease. But I was a honest looking white guy with short hair and no tattoos and dressed professional so I'm sure that helped.
