Instead of repealing SYG they should STFU.


~sorry~

PSA Video....

http://video.msnbc.msn.com/thomas-roberts/52801762

Comments by video producer and Crump. At the beginning, report gives a token few seconds to RZ and MOM's comments, then continues with the usual propaganda, totally dismissing the facts.

It also appears Crump and Trayparents will be participating in the 50th Anniversay of the March on Washington. Crump says Trayvon will be a "major focus" of Saturday's event.

You know... I still think interest (and their support) is waning... maybe that's why the big publicity push lately?

Hi Taurus...

This is correct thread. It was confusing having two sort of general threads about GZ stuff. I LOCKED the Discussion #10 thread that was the last in the series following the case proper. Consider it done! Trial over. George Won!!!

Now we can discuss all matters arising since the trial... HERE

There are Threads for the specific trials/suits (Shellie, Krudibos, Suit against ABC, BDLR Sanctions)

Just don't forget to tell us when to panic. We're counting on you.

How far can they go with "poetic license" before it becomes "blatant lies?"

It is so very far past blatant lies, and has been for so long, it's just un-freakin'-believable...

I agree. The blatant lies started the morning after Trayvon commited suicide by making George shoot him.

From Mark O'Mara

I’ve watched the “Stand Up to ‘Stand Your Ground’” PSA several times now. The PSA features a dramatic reenactment of the encounter between George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin. While the PSA uses actual audio from George’s non-emergency call and witness 911 calls, the visual details of the reenactment are wildly inaccurate and they are unsupported by the actual evidence. By airing an interpretation of events that are easily dismissed as factual fantasy, the proponents for changes in the self-defense statutes in various states are actually damaging their arguments. I have stated that Florida Statute 776 can use some polishing to address a person’s ability to retreat from a situation before using deadly force. But attempting an unsupported attack on the entire statute based solely on emotion will only cause doors to close and ears to go deaf.

The George Zimmerman case was not a ‘stand your ground’ case; it was clearly traditional self-defense, and therefore any campaign for the repeal of ‘stand your ground’ laws predicated on the facts of the Zimmerman case is a non-starter, and any campaign that relies on misrepresentations and misinformation is doomed to fail. Those who wish to effect a valid, rational modification of these principles of self-defense must do so with logic and fact on their side. If we are going to have a conversation about ‘stand your ground’ that will have results, we must have an honest conversation.

Thanks, flgirl543! I wish he'd do something to stop/correct that video, but apparently he has no intentions. I believe in free speech, big time, even speech I don't like, even including Trayborg™ speech. I strongly believe the way to deal with speech we don't like is with more speech. But slander/libel is actionable. Inciting hatred and violence toward an individual or group is actionable.

You know, I bet this is more right than you may have intended. The kid had to be pretty miserable, judging on his lifestyle in the months prior to his death. He was taking lots of potentially lethal chances, as well as indulging in other very risky behavior. He seemed to value his life a lot less than other 17 year olds I've known (or those I raised!), and I mean beyond that teenage invincibility. JMO.

Trayvon Martin's mother pays tribute to son in hip hop song

HOLLYWOOD, Fla. (WSVN) -- The mother of Trayvon Martin lent her spoken vocals to a new released hip hop single that she hopes will offer solace to families affected by gun violence.

The latest chapter in Sybrina Fulton's journey following the February 2012 shooting death of her son comes in the form of "Joy Comes in the Morning," a song by Christian hip hop artist T.D.O.G.G. for which she recorded several spoken lines at the Hot-105 studios in Hollywood.

"My name is Sybrina Fulton, and I'm Trayvon Martin's mother," begins her brief audio monologue in the single. "I want you to know that we serve a God with no boundaries and no limits."

More with video... http://www.wsvn.com/news/articles/local ... p-hop-song

is there a Throw Up icon?

Yes And, one for me.

Are you sympathetic vomiter, too?

Actually, that is what Sybrina does to me every time. Ick.

Thanks, FreeGZ, for the info.

I have to agree with BertaBlue and auscitizenmom:

We should report Sybrina to the Center for Disease Control. She's causing an epidemic!
