He might be taking in what was said, and come back a neocon killer!
He's not smart enough to take in what was said. And he's too big a pussy to kill a bug let alone anyone else.

I hope you'll reconsider because your entertainment value is exceeded only by your douchbaggery.

Anyhow, that is my time in E.T. Have fun trading. I shall not return, not because of the likes of you and Lucrum, but because I believe moderation should be given impartially.

Out of curiosity...
What if martin had wrestled away zimmerman's piece, shot and killed him...
Would the same stand your ground laws be applied for his actions?
Or would we hear black teenager ambushes and murders neighborhood watchman with his own gun?

No, it wouldn't apply if Martin had initiated the fight. Of course, he would claim Zimmerman had started it.
The problem for the prosecution in the actual case is that Zimmerman's story is both reasonable and backed up by the events. If you are a vigilante intending to gun down a guy because he is black, you don't call 911 and give a detailed report beforehand. If you are carrying a gun, you don't start a fist fight with someone who is six inches taller. If you hunt someone down and shoot them, you typically don't end up on the ground with them on top pounding the snot out of your head.
This case unfortunately fit into several convenient liberal templates, eg racial profiling, trigger-happy gun nut, stand-your-ground laws are dangerous. It also provided a rare opportunity for the aging race hustlers to get back in the news. So a man who appears innocent is being railroaded and will have his life ruined for political reasons.

You should have your own political blog, I figure after a few years of that you'd probably have your own radio show.

No way , we wouldn't hear anything because that's the outcome the media wants but (facts contrary to the agenda) isn't newsworthy.
