  1. David's example doesn't hold water. If there had been a lot of random attacks on children by grey haired preachers in your area, it would be ABSOLUTELY reasonable to pay attention to any people of that description who arrived. I think Zimmerman is a murderer, but the fact that he is unsure of Trayvon's colour when questioned, implies that he was more interested in the look of someone who may be using clothing that disguises one's identity, than his race.

  2. An excellent point Pat!

  3. Yes, a disturbing position and a good example. I'm very much in favour of innocent until proven guilty, but once you've actually killed someone and that's been proven, then surely you have to show due cause in a civilised society?

  4. "So many whites". Do you have evidence that this widespread beyond this case?

  5. Wow - you have issues. I made no position statement. I merely asked you to support your claim. I'm not white, Conservative, or racist. And it's hilarious that you have the temerity to accuse anyone of racism whilst at the same time using the phrase "conspiracy by the liberal "jew" media". Zimmerman had a perfect right to follow Trayvon, just as you have a right to film someone engaged in criminal action. When that crossed from following to stalking is when my support for him ceases.
