    One of the twitter feeds was his, and it is not the one that you posted info from (via the daily caller).

  2. You mean from those dirty coal fired plants?


    I don't get the racially diverse community BS, doesn't it just boil down to people just being decent to one another.

  3. Yes, it is! How's that for some brutal honesty? I've had to look inward to make my peace. Occassionly my past still haunts me. It's been a long and sometimes painful journey, but one worth making.

    Yes, we have plenty of dirty coal fired plants in North Carolina also. It is still the cheapest way to create electricity in our region. However the emissions account for 80% of the air pollution in our state.

    Yes, it does. The point that I was trying to make is that Marietta included people from all races. I never felt unsafe and enjoyed meeting people throughout my time there. It is always about "people just being decent to one another".

    Does Marietta have homeless people? Yes
    Does Marietta have crime? Yes
    Does Marietta have poor people? Yes

    This simply makes it like many other places in America. You have to balance the bad and the good.

    Trayvon was a punk. Zimmerman is a punk. They got into each other's faces. And Florida law permits anyone to stand their ground and defend with deadly force.

    This happens every day.

    But this particular day was a very slow news day, and this particular family is a very verbal family. Otherwise, it would have never made page 5 of the local paper.

    IMHO, the only important thing this story brings to light is the very strong and continuing frustration smoldering in much of the black community in the U.S. That's sad to see in the year 2012.

    Actually the Martin family waited till mid-March before contacting the press. What drove the family to contact the press was the refusal of the Sandford police department to turn over the 911 tapes and police report in the incident.

    From the actual police report with regard to Zimmerman: "his back appeared to be wet and was covered in grass (and he) was also bleeding, from the nose and back of his head"

    Who cares about this moronic story? The Democrats are playing the most feeble race card ploy I think I've ever seen. I hope it blows back in their face come election time.

    Okay. It's great that you're making the effort. It would be even better if everyone here did. I think you'll agree that the people who don't simply haven't yet discovered ethics and empathy. In the end, that's all it comes down to.

  10. I agree. However, there seems to be a replay of the Duke Lacrosse case where rampant speculation is treated as fact. There are also the usual racists/ race baiters who are trying to make this a racial issue. There is a lynch mob that cannot even wait for the FDLE and new prosecuter to complete the investigation. Some people on ET are calling Zimmerman a murderer. Let due process run its course.
