    How about a black American jew with the last name Davis?

    [video=youtube;0hm_XkKUGxU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hm_XkKUGxU&feature=relmfu[/video]

    As an African American, Davis was the victim of racism throughout his life, and was a large financial supporter of civil rights causes. Davis had a complex relationship with the African-American community, and attracted criticism after physically embracing Richard Nixon in 1970. One day on a golf course with Jack Benny, he was asked what his handicap was. "Handicap?" he asked. "Talk about handicap – I'm a one-eyed Negro Jew."

    Wasn't saying he was Mexican. I asked you if Mexicans can commit hate crimes, since you (and others) seem hell bent on saying he's not white.

    silly to suggest that the public is privy to all the relevant details that led authorities to charge him. Reportedly GZ is getting lots of donations towards his defense from gun advocate types via his website, so I'm not surprised he's affording top representation. I wonder what happens to monies raised that he doesn't spend on his defense. Pretty likely a Civil case (with it's lower bar of guilt) will follow.

    Unless Zimmerman cops a plea, look for this to drag out forever. Hopefully they'll get to the truth and justice will be correctly served. I'm also hopeful that the public can finally have a non-hysterical discussion on gun laws including the vigilante/stand your ground laws being interjected nationally via ALEC.

    apparently, the defense is entitled to go pre-trial to a judge and argue that he is covered under stand your ground. if the judge finds that he is, Zimmerman is released and is immune from civil action as well.

    Don't know about the civil action part, but it's right if a judge decides to give him immunity.

    Things are going to get ugly this summer. Very ugly. I won't be visiting Pioneer Square with the kids on a sunny day, because the Occupiers are moving back in for the Rose Festival, and they're even more jobless and more angry this time around.

    Dershowitz says that probable cause was written, on purpose, in such a way as to get the judge to not put Zimmerman on trial. That would be the doing of a crooked prosecutor.

    angela cory is being completely irresponsible imo, she should have went with something she has a chance of convicting with...if he walks scott free, regardless of if he should, we are gonna have a goddamn nationwide looter riot with deaths this time, and it will basically be all her fault

    should have went with manslaughter or something of that ilk

    if it gets thrown out before they even get to trial, it might dissipate some of the tension, but still, wtf

    Yep. I think you and I were both surprised yesterday when the charges were made public, and there is nothing in that affidavit that changes the original known witness testimony, other than ignoring it. I don't think there's even enough for manslaughter, but at least that is somewhat reasonable of a charge. The SP overreached, IMO, and as you and jlprk ask, the question is why? I'm actually not ruling out jlprk's take on it.
