even though this is an appendix to the main series, i thought id share this.

likely, it is not the most riveting video, but im hoping it can empower those interested in starting research into astronomical diaries like vat 4956. some might think its too complicated, but i believe such research is within everyones reach.

in a speech that is considered one of the most personal given by the president, or any past president, president obama speaks about treyvon martin being him 35 years agoand- violence, prejudice, the reach and limits of the states and the federal government, and the soul searching to follow.

.

he, the president, invokes martin luther king's- 'the content of character' quote to spark a healthy debate in this country.. www.cnn.com.

You don't hear Not-So-Sharpton raising a civil rights issue over this...
Black woman stands her ground, kills white man
Of course, it could turn out that she acted prematurely. It could turn out that she didn't. And of course, the family of the victim claims that the man shot was just a regular guy - he would never do anything like that. Sounds familiar.
Whatever the truth - where is the outrage? Where is MSNBC? CNN?

@awaken2004:
You are confusing. Simon has been consistent throughout all the recent Zimmerman/TrayVon threads. He hasn't been racist at all. Nor an ass.

" Now it means what? To be treated differently under the law? Why?"
My vote: Because if there were no race issues, Al Not-So-Sharpton would be out of a job (and others like him). Take away his blackness, and he's nothing.

Maybe there should be a rule: Whenever Al Sharpton turns up people should know that facts and truth have left the building.

If you were on the Zimmerman jury, how would you vote? 2nd degree murder, manslaughter or innocent?

"you're presumed reality. That reality is still up in the air. I'm not saying it's an absolute lie. But it certainly isn't an absolute truth."
Why presume any "reality" except this: You are innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. If the reality of this situation is still "up in the air", then he, by definition is innocent. But it is worse than that. All real evidence, brought forth in the trial, paints a "reality" consistent with GZ.
It doesn't mean GZ didn't make mistakes. It doesn't mean TM didn't make mistakes. It means legally he is innocent. It meas that you there was never a case here. It means that what you "feel" the mistakes GZ made are irrelavant.

Simon your comment is baseless. You're assuming all people not on Zimmermans side are on TM's. Not the case. It's about people taking things into their own hands when police were on the way. Zimmerman knew that. He chose to get out against directions. Let the pro's handle it. Not the wanna bees. That's why police get pissed off at groups like the guardian angles. Wanna bees inforcing the law. Any policeman would have been able to corral TM without killing him. Also they are kinda wearing a uniform and would be identified quickly. It's one thing to attack a stranger, it's another to attack a policemen.
Why is it, you suppose that neighborhood watches exist? Is it because the nation is full of "wanna bees"?
The whole thing sends a wrong message.
Should we want to send the message as "if you start to beat someone within an inch of his/her life, that person has the right to take action to prevent death and/or serious boldily harm"?
The prosecution was pathetic. Zimmerman could have represented himself and still be free. But that's the differance between High paid attorneys in the private sector, and what the county can pay for.
The prosecution was pathetic only because the case was pathetic. You are right, Zimmerman could have defended himself and gotten off - because there was no case. There's a better chance of proving JWs are right about 607 than proving that GZ is deserving of murder 2 or manslaughter.

@wha happened:
"Even when race is pulled out, people put it right back in"
Cop out - I quoted your post and adjusted your spin to reflect reality. It had nothing to do with race.

" The Black Panthers are offering up a $1,000,000.00 reward for the capture of George Zimmerman."
I have not confirmed that, but if true, I would hope the Justice Department would be looking to make some arrests. And what would they do with him after his "capture"?
Or perhaps you are confusing the old reward they offered - prior to the actual arrest and trial of GZ?
