I went to school with a dozen or so copies of this same girl. Pseudo-intellectual naive ramblings. White guilt? Their understand of reality is based on the same blind ignorance of facts that got "Grizzly Man" eaten by a bear.
All I can do is echo my earlier recommendation of Black Rednecks and White Liberals by Thomas Sowell.
Sowell critically analyzes the distinction between race and culture and demonstrates how the white liberal activists are actually hurting the black community more than they are helping them. The book recasts the conversation.

Re: 17y/o Killed By Neighborhood Watch/CHL
The report of the story linked by LegalInsurrection did include the fire and said George had a fire extinguisher to put it out. (They are citing Breitbart, who is in turn citing the Sanford PD.)philip964 wrote:Drudge headline said fire, but story did not. So I said it burned. It may not have been on fire when the people were helped out. George stayed until the police came, and gave his name to them.Fangs wrote:A couple different people have posted saying that the SUV was on fire, but I haven't seen it in any of the news articles.

They also mention the police had to turn most of the evidence from the Trayvon Martin case over to the FBI and Justice Department.

Re: 17y/o Killed By Neighborhood Watch/CHL
This question is only meta-relevant to the topic.
What is the longest thread in the history of the forum? Are there other notables that rival this one?

The defense rests. Zimmerman did not testify. Prosecution calling rebuttal witnesses. . . starting with gym owner.

BREAKING NEWS (probably deserving of its own thread):
http://pjmedia.com/tatler/2013/07/10/ne ... -protests/
http://pjmedia.com/tatler/2013/07/10/ne ... -protests/
(CRS = DOJ unit called the Community Relations Service)Judicial Watch announced today that it has obtained documents proving that the Department of Justice played a major behind-the-scenes role in organizing protests against George Zimmerman. Zimmerman is on trial for second-degree murder in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin in February 2012.
March 25 – 27, 2012, CRS spent $674.14 upon being “deployed to Sanford, FL to work marches, demonstrations, and rallies related to the shooting and death of an African-American teen by a neighborhood watch captain.”
March 25 – 28, 2012, CRS spent $1,142.84 “in Sanford, FL to work marches, demonstrations, and rallies related to the shooting and death of an African-American teen by a neighborhood watch captain.”
March 30 – April 1, 2012, CRS spent $892.55 in Sanford, FL “to provide support for protest deployment in Florida.”
March 30 – April 1, 2012, CRS spent an additional $751.60 in Sanford, FL “to provide technical assistance to the City of Sanford, event organizers, and law enforcement agencies for the march and rally on March 31.”
April 3 – 12, 2012, CRS spent $1,307.40 in Sanford, FL “to provide technical assistance, conciliation, and onsite mediation during demonstrations planned in Sanford.”
April 11-12, 2012, CRS spent $552.35 in Sanford, FL “to provide technical assistance for the preparation of possible marches and rallies related to the fatal shooting of a 17 year old African American male.” – expenses for employees to travel, eat, sleep?

Re: 17y/o Killed By Neighborhood Watch/CHL
We offer the Wally Walk as a requirement for forum members who get their new CHLs.
We need an initiation / hazing for forum members who are in the "waiting room" (packet submitted, state is processing application, plastic not in hand). I propose that they be directed to this thread and asked to read it in its entirety to pass the time.

The self defense expert is really tying all of the loose ends up for the defense. He's got a great presence on the stand as well.

He's shaky and vulnerable to the prosecution. I don't think he adds much compared could detract from the momentum the defense currently has.

In fact, several witnesses in this trial have been caricatures (not just characters).
Compelling.
He is very good and can articulate himself well. Are you talking Law and Order, Crime and Punishment or the dramas... The C&P was filmed in real courts in San Diego.
