    Ding ding ding - El-P FTW!

    It's like duh, people. How fucking clueless can you people.

    Gated neighborhood. Recent string of break-ins. Neighborhood watch. Unfamiliar face in a hoodie. Why are people shocked this kid caught attention?

    What's more frustrating is the ignorance shown, even in this thread.

    The new Reuters article actually has new information, yet clearly one person commenting on it won't even take the time to read it.

    Fuck ya he does... teenagers in general need to be watched like a hawk.

    Example: My fiancee's parents own a bowling alley. We were visiting her parents at the lanes and my fiancee had accidentally left her wallet in the car. I noticed when we parked that there was a young WHITE teenage couple loitering outside behind the lanes and only 15 or 20 feet from where we parked. I had a bad feeling about them but:

    A) I didn't realize her wallet was still in the car

    and

    B) I didn't realize the car had been left unlocked

    When we went back outside the kids were gone and so was her wallet. Could it have been someone else? Sure, but we never saw anyone else back there and it smacked of a small time thief. Nobody ever tried to use her cards and I figure they only took the cash and probably ditched the wallet in the garbage.

    Moral of the story, when someone looks suspicious (regardless of race) it's a good idea to check them out or keep an eye on them. I'm not condoning what Zimmerman did (not at all) because I think he should have left it well enough alone, but I don't blame him for calling the cops or being suspicious of the kid. That was well within his charge.

    It's cool. You clearly didn't read the article. But why the fuck would you be in a gated neighborhood if you don't live there? And if you're in a gated neighborhood, and you don't live there, why the fuck would be be retarded and not answer questions.

    Maybe it's just me and I live a life based heavily in favor of common sense. This was one of the basic, most common sense things I learned early in life. We had private, gated neighborhoods where I grew up. You don't go there without reason, and if you are there, make yourself appear as friendly and open as possible. Otherwise, you draw attention to yourself.

    Reuters is a propaganda tool of the SS. Their mission statement, as noted on their website, is the extermination of all black people.

    Yes I read the article . . . I don't bother to answer because I'm not sure the point of the question. Did you read the article? Did you read how Zimmerman disobeyed what the police told him to do in this situation. I can play this game and say "I don't know about you but when the poice tell me to do something, I am as friendly as possible and open to them." This whole case is a mystery, but to say Zimmerman did nothig wrong when he shot an unarmed kid and is being prosecuted and all the evidence has not come out yet . . . that's wrong. If jury aquits Zimmerman, then perosnally, I will think Martin brought it on himself.

    And maybe it is just you, because is there a law about not being polite and answering questions. If you grew up constantly being judged and accused of something. If you grew up being looked at as different and lower class . . . after years of that would you be so happy go lucky as to answer people's questions . . . . questions from a person who is shaking you down. Normally I would say fuck that . . . but currently I would probably factor in they might have a gun and politely walk away. It is the society we live in now I guess.

    This is what your bible . ..er I mean article says:

    Ten days after his father was hospitalized, Zimmerman noticed another young man in the neighborhood, acting in a way he found familiar, so he made another call to police.

    "We've had some break-ins in my neighborhood, and there's a real suspicious guy," Zimmerman said, as Trayvon Martin returned home from the store.

    The last time Zimmerman had called police, to report Burgess, he followed protocol and waited for police to arrive. They were too late, and Burgess got away.

    This time, Zimmerman was not so patient, and he disregarded police advice against pursuing Martin.

    "These assholes," he muttered in an aside, "they always get away."

    After the phone call ended, several minutes passed when the movements of Zimmerman and Martin remain a mystery.

    Moments later, Martin lay dead with a bullet in his chest.


    So you know Zimmerman didn't stop Martin to ask questions . . . let me ask you, did you read the article?

    Where does it say he stopped and questioned Martin? He followed him, was told to stop, went back to his car, and Martin circled back to confront Zimmerman. Unless you have other information?

    I'd be angry too if some dude circled back to me after I listened to the 911 caller, confronted me, and then started bashing my head against the pavement.

    Martin got suspended from school the week before with a bunch of women's jewelry in his backpack. Does that mean he had stealing issues? Or, was he a jewelry salesman in his spare time?

    So "according to the article" we have a guy who has a violent past, been given some type of authority position, emotional as his father was just released from the hospital, see a person he believes committed a crime, calls the police, is mad muttering these assholes always get away with this, disregards what the police say and approaches Martin.

    There is no way that was going to turn out good.

    According to the article you kept asking me if I read it said:

    After the phone call ended, several minutes passed when the movements of Zimmerman and Martin remain a mystery.

    Moments later, Martin lay dead with a bullet in his chest.


    The only thing I assumed was when Zimmerman disobeyed police, he at least approached Zimmerman asking questions rather than shooting first. But your article implies it was Zimmerman who was unwilling to wait for poice and take matters into his own hands.

    I'm not sure what your argument is at this point ToB. Are you arguing that the profiling/calling the police was bad or are you arguing that Zimmerman was just a bad guy?

    You wiuld be angry . . . imagine a guy with anger issues, packing and who isn't afraid to take on the police?

    What is Martin going to do, steal his gun?

    Yeah, he had anger issues when he was what, 19 years-old? What does that have to do with what his neighbors say about him?

    You seem to be getting very emotional.

    According to at least one account, that's exactly what he was trying to do. Why did Trayvon circle back after Zimmerman went back to his car? To share some Skittles with him? Your own comments earlier seem to illustrate your own anger issues, at least in how you'd react to somebody asking you what your were doing (which we have no proof even happened).
