Stand Your Ground For–Social Justice?

Justice, or social justice? In the George Zimmerman case, justice was done, though at horrific and continuing cost to an innocent man. The continuing uproar comes from those who demand social justice, an irrational lust for a utopian condition that can never be realized or satisfied.

One expects the media to get it wrong. Badly wrong. Ridiculously wrong. As long as whatever they’re reporting conforms to their preferred narrative lines–i.e. progressive philosophy–virtually any story is simply too good to check. And so it is with the George Zimmerman story, from before the arrest to Zimmerman’s July 13, 2013 exoneration.

I just heard on HLN the Trayparents will be on NG Friday night.

I hope George sues the State of Florida but I have a feeling he's not going to. Where in the world is Norm Wolfinger?

regarding Rachel and the offer to send her through college ... I have a hard time believing she will do anything that takes her away from her daily routine of wasting hour after hour talking and texting on the phone. She admitted on TV that she was surprised at the amount of time she spends with phone. She is obviously "addicted". The phone addiction is hard to break for lots of ppl and I think Rachel is over the top addicted. She simply in my opinion does not have the resolve for higher education. They should leave her alone. By offering to put her through ... they are practically forcing her to accept. Rachel doesn't like "change". She is set in her ways at the tender age of 19. I think she likes all this putting on makeup and dolling up for TV interviews, and she might enjoy being a co-host on a show like ... lol ... The View !!!!

But for her to do (school) .... WORK !!!!! omg ... no ... that's not gonna happen. She's gonna pull a Maynard G. Krebs on that ... or ... they simply will say they tutored her and that she graduated college (doctor records) and then state she has joined Mensa.

I do predict tho she will become a TV personality of some kind.

I hope my post did not sway you towards making any judgments that may not be fully accurate. The aunt mentioned something like: ''he lives with us as much as anybody'. The older pictures of Trayvon looked like a kid from a good family home, a child with a full schedule of activities providing attention from that family. What we know now indicates his family life went downhill the last couple years of his life, he was left wanting for guidance.

If Crump had a daughter... she would look and sound like Rachel.

I imagine that Rachel will follow in her "father's" footsteps an become an "in out tickle it" lawyer social engineer...

It is there..... but to make things easier I just posted all the REAL pics of TM I have in the original Case "Evidence" thread.

Ditto but I don't share your skepticism - I think GZ will file against any and all that may result in a hefty payout. He doesn't have much choice. Right now it doesn't look like he'll ever be able to have a normal job, much less pursue the career(s) he was working toward when he was attacked. Shellie is not in much better shape. He may wait until her case is resolved, but if there is a cause of action, I think he'll go for it. Besides, he has lawyers who'll likely be researching all of the ways GZ can get paid and they can collect a %.

I'd like to know where Norm Wolfinger is too. Please let us know if you hear anything.

From what I have read, he was a rebellious teen, and was handed off from person to person. No one knew what to do with him, or how to handle him. It is beyond sad, but very very true. He had ZERO direction in his life, so he chose his own direction, being young and stupid...and look where it got him.

Although I think you have stated it very well, I think there was one other factor, or maybe two, that affected the outcome of his life. His father evidently was involved in some kind of gang affiliation, loved twerkin (gag,gag,gag), sorry, got drunk, smoked weed, fooled around on his (whatever at the moment), and was involved in buying or selling guns with Trayvon. What a great rolemodel!! And, his (ahem) mother evidently was trawling for another (ahem, suitor).

It seems the lady who heard 3 gunshots thinks the jury got it wrong.

Greta's show was fab tonight...she had the aternate juror (Male) interview. I'll try and post the transcript once its up.
