The Zimmerman Trial

ZappasGuitar said:
Unbelievable.

And if you noticed someone following you for hours at a time, would you just ignore him or would you brandish your weapon in an attempt to bully the "follower" from continuing to follow you?

ignore him/her, OR if I felt uncomfortable about it, call the police. you know those guys, the ones you claim are paid to keep order.....isn't that what they are for?

my weapon is my tool to protect myself from physical harm, not to protect myself from being followed by someone. I think you're projecting your own cowardice and paranoia
 
ZappasGuitar said:
So now you admit she'd be within her legal rights to call the police?


That's not what you said just minutes ago...




Make up your mind please.

Yep, it sure is, and as I said, this is NY , they come when you call (where I live anyway) and they would definitely detain him to find out wtf he was following a woman for four hours. Then I'd leave.

They might even tase him if he starting yapping at them, which he is probably likely to do. I don't agree with tasing, but I don't go along with white men following women or black youths around for hours either. So you know...shit happens.
 
ZappasGuitar said:
Sure I can.

I merely grab the closest police officer and explain to him how you've been following me for hours and how it's making me nervous.

semantics. all I have to say is 'what are you talking bout?' no proof of intent means no probable cause to stop me. two questions and i'm free to go. good luck.

again, no proof of intent is no probable cause. i'll be walking again in minutes.

we all know you don't like certain things, even though they are perfectly legal. tough shit. any tasing would end up a big payday for me down the road, yippee.

you statists really need to brush up on the law in order to keep from looking stupid.

please stop harassing me. every pm was a response to your crybaby antics. crying because you were threadbanned. get a life loser.

Was I even talking to you just then?

Every PM I received from you was a shrieking, insult filled rant telling me I needed to be more mature.

I merelyfound it ironic someone who couldn't respond without resorting to schoolyard insults would lecture another on "maturity" and wanted to share my findings with others.

You didn't want to settle this quietly through PM's so now we're going to do it out here...happy?

Bitch, you better ask somebody. You're a delusional. I have Google at my fingertips, as I have had, since I arrived here, and am not afraid to use it. You're the dumbest poster, here, bar none, so how the hell could you have schooled me in anything except how to be as dumb as you? You're in your own Private Idaho...while the rest of us live in the real world.

Well at least we're getting to finally see what a dishonest person you truly are, hiding behind your phony mask of "Patriotism".

Lying to the cops now, eh?

Not willing to tell them you were indeed following me?

Why not just admit to the police you were indeed following me if it's not illegal to just follow someone for hours?

The board liberals seem to have forgotten that the prosecution have to PROVE guilt and that all that's needed for a finding of NOT GUILTY is one person with REASONABLE DOUBT.

The standard of proof used in criminal trials to find a defendant guilty of a crime. When a criminal defendant is prosecuted, the prosecutor must prove the defendant's guilt "beyond a reasonable doubt." A reasonable doubt exists when a juror cannot say with moral certainty that a person is guilty.

AND

If I were he, I would file a suit against Trayvon's parents, seeing as how they can be held liable for his behavior, actions, and damages.

Incorrect, if 5 jurors find that he is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, and one finds that there is reasonable doubt there jury is hung. Acquittal must be unanimous also.

trayvon was 17.

this basic fact omission shows how little you've paid attention to this case.

Even if zimmerman did follow travyon (which there is zero evidence for after the dispatcher told him not to), and even though the dispatcher had already been asking him for minutes where trayvon was going - that does not give the right for trayvon to viciously attack him. Following people is not a crime. Beating somebody up for following you is a crime. Trayvon escalated what could have been nothing more than a verbal exchange into a violent conflict. We DO have evidence that zimmerman was badly beaten. At that point zimmerman had every right to but down the violent assaulter trayvon martin.

Actually, I am fairly certain that HAD Martin killed Zimmerman, he could have said that he was in constant fear of the person following him and sought to put an end to it. That he turned to tell him to stop and when Zimmerman continued (if in fact he did) that under the stand your ground law in florida, he too might have had a valid defense.

where you consider someone walking behind another person as stalking. not much in the way of reality there.

LOL, I see you can't deal with the specifics of the issue so you have to shift the subject
