    Are there more 'protests' in LA tonight? I've been too busy BBQing and hanging with the family to know.

    Fat white 'hipsters' from Portland are so outraged that they're protesting on a message board!

    George Gascon didn't have a comment on Bryan Stow, though. Maybe because he's from Santa Cruz. Or because he didn't kill the people who bashed/kicked his head into brain damage.

    Just out of curiosity, but if someone was on top of you and was banging your head into the pavement, would you consider that deadly force?

    Stow took his beating like a man. He's brain-damaged for life and bankrupt because of it, but at least he took his beating in LA like a man.

    Denny still thinks that Zimmerman chased Trayvon down and attacked him. We're on an idiot's board, it turns out. Now wonder the NJ fans left this place.

    There's no evidence that his head was smashed into the sidewalk in the way Zimmerman said. Examiners even said so.

    He's a liar.

    Well I believe if he knocked your head into the pavement enough there's a good chance you would be knocked unconscious. Light headed\dizziness at the very least.

    No. It is ridiculously difficult to actually kill someone with your bare hands.

    “He [Martin] jumped out from the bushes, and he said ‘What the [expletive] is your problem, homie?’ And I got my cell phone out to call 911 this time, and I said, ‘I don’t have a problem.’ And he goes, ‘Now you have a problem,’ and he punched me in the nose,” Zimmerman told the investigator.

    Zimmerman said the blow knocked him to the ground and Martin got on top of him.


    (He got out his phone to call 9/11 instead of retreating)

    Zimmerman has proven time and again to be really, really bad at decision-making.
