devildog 0 #2776 December 14, 2012 Not sure if this was picked up in here 2 months ago, but there are a dozen LEOs apparently testifying in defense of Zimmerman. That doesn't bode well for the prosecution. http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2012/10/24/breaking-orlando-sentinel-reporting-leo-chain-of-command-will-testify-for-the-defense-in-zimmerman-trial/You stop breathing for a few minutes and everyone jumps to conclusions.

linebckr83 3 #2777 December 14, 2012 Quote Quote His brother tweeted to him just a few days after his suspension and before he died "yu aint tell me yu swung on a bus driver" Your information is incorrect. Hmm. So that screenshot isn't real? Everyone knows NO_LIMIT_NIGGA was TM, and you're saying TRAY'S BIG BRUH wasn't TM's big brother? I'd like to know how you are certain I'm incorrect here. It doesn't take a genius to read that picture. But I did go to high school. And college. Twice. So maybe that helps. If you need help reading it just ask."Are you coming to the party?

OK, here's my question: if it was Trayvon Martin's brother, why didn't he know from Trayvon that he swung on a bus driver, who did he hear it from and was the information reliable?

Look up the definition of hearsay, add a few more degrees of seperation, then look again at your incriminating evidence. The article I read claims that his brother Stephen Martin is the one who tweeted him. When did I mention incriminating evidence? You said I was incorrect in saying that his brother tweeted him, I simply showed you where I got that. Are you saying you've never heard about something happening to a family member from anyone but that person? I doubt that. I sure have. So you think I'm incorrect. You dont know for sure.

linebckr83 3 #2781 December 14, 2012 It must not be true because surely the defense would be using it to prove some point. Or maybe that's some of the evidence that hasn't been released yet. Who knows? In general, all 5,413 pages of this thread are full of people claiming to know something that they don't. I gotta get my share! "Are you coming to the party?

Kennedy 0 #2784 April 6, 2013 QuoteQuoteParents getting their share too How is the HOA liable? (1) They weren't found liable; out of court settlement. (2) They worried about being found responsible because Zimmerman was the appointed head of neighborhood watch. (3) They may also have decided to settle because even if they thought they'd win, the cost of this sort of civil suit may be more than the settlement. (4) They may have chosen to settle because the HOA council or entire HOA membership had decided to side with the Martins.witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kennedy 0 #2790 April 15, 2013 Quote Well THIS is tasteful! And inaccurate. It wasn't a picture of Trayvon. It was a target with a hoodie, skittles, and a can of tea. It was faceless. So it wasn't a picture of the "victim", it was a picture referencing that FL situation. And FYI, it was a "Don't Shoot" target. In a effort to improve training and move away from the old 'stand in a line and fire on command' range practice, instructors use shoot/don't-shoot targets. Some are armed, others are not. It allows officers to practice evaluating a target before during and after shooting. So this target that referenced Trayvon without resembling him was to teach officers NOT to shoot. Shouldn't that make the whiny pseudo-offended liberals happy?

mirage62 0 #2793 April 15, 2013 So first we get an inaccurate post... Now it looks like the facts have come out. Does the officer get his job back? Was using TM as an example of when NOT to shoot wrong? Seems to me that the officer was using this as an example toward restraint from shooting.
