    If you have a high enough credit rating and your debt to income checks out you can get a home lone anywhere at a low interest rate.

    If you wanted to Maxie you could get a mortgage for the worst part of Detroit. You have the credit history, the credit rating and the assets that banks would be falling all over themselves to write that paper.

    Was OJ guilty?

    Be careful. There's a bunch of essential elements that only you in the entire world can focus on to get to the Truth(tm)

    Heard of Josuha Chellew?

    Just another of many victims of interracial crimes in the U.S not named Trayvon Martin.

    http://mdjonline.com/view/full_stor...-linked-to-gang-are-accused-in-beating-death?

    You probably haven't heard about this because 1) crime stories are local stories and 2) crime stories that do leap to national attention are rarely black on white crime (despite it being more common than white on black crime). There is a blackout among the national media regarding black on white crime, which occurs at rates greater than white on black.

    As well, black on black crime rates are much higher than that of white on white crime.

    Blacks who fear being crime victims should worry more about other blacks than the Zimmerman's of the world.

    Florida 2000 to 2009:

    White murders black: 414
    Black murders white: 858 (up significantly from 529 in the 80's)

    Florida population: White 57%; Black 16%

    Trayvon Martin is a special case victim how?

    The White Kills Black advanced stats are still twice as high when normalized to account for population percentages; there's so many white people that you can't hardly fire your gun in the air without hitting one.

    On a slightly more serious note, I wonder what the conviction rates are for those two pools of murders.

    That I know.

    79% chance if you're black.
    57% chance if you're white.

    On a micro level, sure. On a macro level? That kind of credit profile doesn't exist in those neighborhoods. Banks care about one thing: money. If they can find a way to make a buck, they will.

    Sample size is too small; it should increase soon as he defends himself more.

    I think the jury called a charge on Trayvon even though George flopped.
