Zimmerman Trial

[HoughMade]

There may be some sort of reaction closer to where the trial is, but I'm convinced there will not be widespread rioting like '92.

IANAL but did anyone else find it strange that shortly after the jury went into deliberations everyone had to come back because they asked for a chronological listing of the submitted evidence. Am I wrong that this is a rather sophomoric way for the judges court to be run?

No, you are not wrong.

Great article. The reverend put into words what I could not.

Even if you could put it into words, you'd be a racist.

Interestingly enough, I just learned the origins of the slur, "Cracker."

You must know that to be a Trial by Jury, the Jury must be and shall be made up of the required number of members and those members must be peers of the Defendent. In this case. I think there could only be a slim to no chance that all 6 women are truely Zimmerman's peers.

To me, a peer is a person who has equal standing with another or others, as in rank, class, age and experience. It will be interesting to see how the 6 women stack up to this definition.

A friend is a photog in Florida for a tV station, he posted this picture on facebook.

The woman appears to be schooling him as to why it is not racist.

 

[terrehautian]

He appears to be (not) listening.

Most likely what she is saying is pointless.

 

[terrehautian]

True.

There has been some warnings issued as these threads address racial issues. My thoughts and comments are not about race but the reverse racism that has come to rule our lives. I spend a bit of time with those of the ethnicity's we have mentioned in this and the other "Z" V "T" threads and have come to understand that all races are suspicious of all other races for reasons to extensive to list.
The lady in the pic is reaming that man for stating a fact. If he dropped the "N" word on here the world would jump dead up in his back side. He is just showing the fact that we are not the only racist culture in america. A double standard exists.
I can not count or remember the number of times I have been called Cracker, Honky and worse by those of color when I am working around them. When asked for a square or a solid dollar and I refuse, the names come in an attempt to scare or humiliate me into giving up my hard earned money. Never works.

I hate the term "reverse racism." It's racism. There's nothing reverse about it.

So the judge brought the lawyers back into court to address a jury request?

Horrible! She's in on a conspiracy! That never happens! The fix is in. She's an idiot!

​Oh wait....I forgot that's happened in 80+% of my trials.



IAAL.

No, there is a reason for this:

1. These requests/jury questions have to be on the record.

2. These requests/jury questions have to be heard with both sides present.

3. I do not understand "sophomoric" but perhaps I am confused as to what you are getting at. This is due process.

How would you have it done???

 

[24Carat]

IAN ! It just sounded like they would have been provided with it prior to heading out.

What Churchmouse said, the crap comming out of MSNBC now is unbelievable. They should rename that show to MSBET, such one sided crap is beyond belief. No I take that back, MS N BC, is accurate.
