Was all over that thread. You have to give the prosecution credit; in the face of ridiculously overwhelming evidence to the contrary they kept a straight face and tried to stick to the media's version of events.

---

interestingly... I was just watching another trial (in Pasco Co., Florida) with a similar concept... it just didn't have a racial angle since it was old white man shoots younger white man in a theater

the narrative of the events that had been put out was old man just pulled a gun and shot the young man b/c popcorn got thrown in his face (this was an 8 year old case that FINALLY just wrapped up yesterday)

but the defense had great surveillance video showing the old man was in his seat against a back wall while the younger man was standing basically right in front of him and hit the old man with a cell phone first and then grabbed the popcorn from the old man's lap and threw the popcorn at his face... it was as the popcorn was being thrown the old man shot him

the prosecutor tried to dampen the blow of the video by saying (paraphrasing) "that very bright light the security camera picked up with its IR feature isn't a cell phone light... it's the reflection of the old man's shoes as he's moving around" like the old man's wearing shoes with light up soles

the jury came back last night and said the old man was not guilty... essentially agreeing that he shot in self-defense

once again... a narrative that had been told so often that it became "true" (the shooting was simply over popcorn being thrown in someone's face) is disproven in court and now people who didn't watch the trial at all and only heard the narrative spun in the media are saying stupid shite like "you can be shot for throwing popcorn now"

Zim is a POS but he had the best defense attorneys since OJ

Who gives a shite, next thread please

RIP Trayvon.

You changed the world young man.

Who gives a frick

I hope to never hear Hannity say the phrase “ground and pound” again for the rest of my days.

Why is Crump not behind bars for his shenanigans in this?

People can casually ask this question, but the mother f*cker needs an answer NOW. How in the f*ck is this stupid looking hominid still allowed to walk around with his silly a$$ briefcase with any pretense of legitimacy whatsoever as if this is some kind of joke?

Joel Gilbert's Trayvon Hoax is an excellent documentary for anyone interested.

Here's a link for those interested. Apologies if already posted.

10 years ago Trayvon Martin was being followed and in an attempt to defend himself attacked a man who had been told to quit following him but didn’t and used his gun to shoot him resulting in his death.

I just want to make sure I understand your logic correctly.

It's "defending yourself" to physically assault someone that is just following you?

It's not "defending yourself" to shoot someone that is actively bashing your head on concrete?
