dcnovice -> Martin/Zimmerman: Why the Intense Focus? (10/8/2012 2:16:08 PM)

Since February, we've had myriad threads and posts about the shooting of Trayvon Martin, with some of our regulars seeming to post almost nonstop about every last detail of the case. I can't recall another incident that's sparked such intense discussion.

I'm honestly puzzled about why this topic has so consumed folks. Anyone have any thoughts about it?

Different mindsets: some posters lack reason and those that do respond to their foolishness, but their reasonable arguments cannot penetrate the thick skulls of them without reason.




DomYngBlk -> RE: Martin/Zimmerman: Why the Intense Focus? (10/9/2012 11:05:09 AM)

Racism.....simple as that




Nosathro -> RE: Martin/Zimmerman: Why the Intense Focus? (10/9/2012 11:32:46 AM)

I agree with DomYngBlk.

On both sides.

DomYngBlk is wrong in most cases. There are people who assume Martin was an "animal" simply because he was black. Others assume Zimmerman to be a racist killer just because he is white. Both are wrong.
Others find the issues of self defense compeling.
Yet another group feels that self defence leads to a "wild west" mentality.
All of this meets in one case.




Raiikun -> RE: Martin/Zimmerman: Why the Intense Focus? (10/9/2012 12:32:36 PM)

This case just isn't about race at all.




DomYngBlk -> RE: Martin/Zimmerman: Why the Intense Focus? (10/9/2012 12:39:48 PM)

Sure it is Raiikun. This was black on black or white on white you'd give a rats ass

Awful prejudiced of you to come to that conclusion. (And an absolutely untrue one).





DomYngBlk -> RE: Martin/Zimmerman: Why the Intense Focus? (10/9/2012 12:57:34 PM)

So how many threads have you started or commented on that is about black on black or white on white assualt and murder? I'd venture...zero

Absolutely irrelevant. It was not race that drew my attention to this case, so you can drop the race card now.

I say that Martin was a savage, an animal, because he attacked concerned citizen Zimmerman.

Your bias is showing. I grew up in the midwest.

If you want to avoid looking like a racist avoid terms like animal.




mnottertail -> RE: Martin/Zimmerman: Why the Intense Focus? (10/9/2012 2:03:33 PM)

And 'savage'.  There is no question about him being born in Kenya is there?

If you don't want to take my advise don't.

Martin was born in the US that makes him a citizen as well...and no body witness the so called attack, there is no evidence Martin even laid a finger on Zimmerman, just Zimmerman word, and he is a proven liar.
