Trayvon Martin

[NomarFachix]

Try reading again. What else do you want to call climbing on someone and slamming their head into the pavement as? Oh, it's pretty much a curb-stomp.

A curb stomp is making someone bite a curb and stomping on the back of their head with your foot.. way different lol

I think we're drifting from the point here guys lol

And, the picture has relevance, but it doesn't to you because it doesn't fit the liberal and over-reactionary agenda.

Here, so then this picture has relevance, too.

Not even similar. One is pointing out clear bias, and the one you are positing is actually showing your clear bias.

 

"Majored in cheerfulness". .

 

How about, "was suspended for assaulting a bus driver days prior"? Do you mind adding that one?

 

Strong assumptions of why Zimmerman shot Traynov Martin.

 

What was he supposed to be charged for?

 

Also, is there some point about Zimmerman calling the police 46 times in 2011? .

How about, "do your homework"?

 

5. Without any evidence, a right-wing columnist alleged that Martin assaulted a bus driver. Unlike Zimmerman, Trayvon has no documented history of violence. This allegation continues to be advanced by a blogger on the Examiner even after the real reason was leaked to the police and confirmed by the family. [Miami Herald; Examiner]

How about, "do your homework"?

No, do your homework. Your quote was from the left-wing media. Does not count. Please, only use ECN's sources next time.

[Guru]

I'm still laughing at the fact that ECN doesn't know what a curb stomp is hahahaha

lol you guys realize that someone posted an extremely biased article that both myself and ECN said was ridiculous right?

 

Curb stomp or not that shit isn't gonna help Martin's case.

No, it's not. Sorry. I'm shocked that you have no idea what a curb stomp is.

Ah, yeah. In the same boat, you and Flash agree so much in topics like these, you'd think we were all debating Bush and Cheney.

 

Just to make you look like a damn fool, go back and read my initial post, so you will understand that I wasn't overreacting to ANYTHING. Also, you can read something I wrote on Facebook, concerning the matter:

 

To play both sides of the fence...Zimmerman should have listened to the cops and stopped pursuing. He himself is guilty of a couple of domestic violence charges in the past, anyway. However, Trayvon is not the 12-13 year old kid in the pictures they are showing on TV. He was 17, 6-2 and 140 pounds, a football player that had a lot of speed. Zimmerman had 100+ pounds on him. Trayvon was serving a five-day suspension from school, also.

 

There was no reason for Trayvon to stop and confront Zimmerman. He could have ran, with the speed and lack of weight he had on him, and left Zimmerman in the dust.

 

There was also no reason for Zimmerman to shoot and kill him, and there's no reason why Zimmerman was NOT arrested. You kill, you get arrested...regardless of the reason. The rest should be sorted out in court. I fail to see why Zimmerman, with 100+ pounds on Trayvon, was unable to gain an advantage over a kid that was supposedly on top of him, beating his face in.

 

Trayvon made a mistake by confronting him. Zimmerman made a mistake by shooting and killing an unarmed Trayvon. One dies, one should be in prison. Simple as that. Everything else seems irrelevant, at this point.

Most of us know where you stand on these topics, buddy. In fact, I knew where you WERE GOING TO STAND before you even posted in here. All of us did. There's something wrong with that.

[Flash]

Its wrong to have your own set of beliefs? Since when?

Do you support Westboro Baptist? Cults? The KKK?

 

You don't have to answer, actually...I'm just flexing my muscles, at this point. You understood what I was saying when I replied to him.

[Real Deal]

Hey Flash...why haven't you posted in this topic yet?

You didn't even give a +1 to Dee for posting it. Kind of odd, since you usually almost always post in Heat topics.

 

Don't see Mike Miller in that picture, though. Was he sick at the time? I don't think he's Hispanic, and from what I've heard, there's no point in making this a race issue. I'm just curious...why not post how you feel about that picture?

[EastCoastNiner]

Do you mind showing me where I said I believe Zimmernan is innocent? Do you mind doing that for me, or are you going to continue to make stuff up like you often times do.

 

It's ten times more obvious which side you would take in this situation (I've taken no side).

 

Wanting hand-outs, cases where a "minority" is perceived as the one that is wronged. etc. It's completely obvious which side you will take, without having an open mind.

 

Also, I'm not sure why some of you keep mentioning Fox News. I never really watch or read Fox News. I listen to CNN for 99% of television news.

I thought it was a great gesture by our guys. D-Wade and LBJ even had messages on their shoes as well. I've maintained all along that Martin didn't deserve to die so don't try and make me seem like a racist or some kind of bigot because that's exactly what you tried to do with that post. Smh...that's just sad from you.

 

Mike Miller wasn't traveling with the team because of an ankle injury he's recovering from.

Those groups are all entitled to their own beliefs. Do I agree with them? Absolutely not those groups are all ignorant as hell but its their right to believe what they want to. Just like the Black Panthers. Do I agree with them? Absolutely not, but they're entitled to their beliefs however ignorant they may be.

[Flash]

Its also funny that people are saying that ECN and I have already taken a set position on this. Which if you actually read my post, I haven't at all. I just posted one theory that other agreed could be close to what happened which is based on the evidence that's been made public. I also said that any other theory is just as possible as that one because we don't really know everything that happened for sure. Saying that the evidence that's come out will make it tough to convict Zimmerman isn't picking a side either. Its being rational.

 

Believing that there's more to this story than the media is saying is one thing, its totally another thing to make it out like we think Martin deserved this which we've stated he absolutely didn't.

 

This shouldn't be an issue of race. The media and the Rev. Al's of the world made it one though, not us. Murder is murder regardless of who pulls the trigger.

Ha...of all people, you're going to tell me that I make stuff up? I should curb-stomp you, er...I mean, push your head into the sidewalk, for that one.

 

It's ten times more obvious which side you would take in this situation (I've taken no side).

I'm not going to take the side of a man that ignored the police, and one that killed an unarmed kid without being arrested. If you think my decision is a bad one, I'm pretty sure i know what side you're REALLY on, just too afraid to say what you want about it.

 

Wanting hand-outs, cases where a "minority" is perceived as the one that is wronged. etc. It's completely obvious which side you will take, without having an open mind.

How many minorities are involved in this case? Just wondering if you knew.

 

Wanting hand-outs? Is that because I don't want dirty Republicans taking away Medicaid and Medicare? Ah, am I surprised you went there? Nope.

 

Nah, you never did say that Zimmerman was innocent, but bet your ass you'd be the guy in here (with Flash, of course) finding a reason why Zimmerman did what he did. Who posted that Trayvon "curb-stomped" Zimmerman? You. Who posted the picture showing a fake picture of Trayvon, looking like he could be a juvenile delinquent? You. Who brought race into the equation, and political views, immediately? You.

 

Make no mistake about it: you have a reputation that I'll refrain from defining...it's just not a good one when it comes to these topics. Reid posted that he knew you were reading this topic...because we all did, and were anticipating your response. Kyle posted something that basically said you and Flash were strikingly similar...because you both are.

 

But, you go ahead and continue your research and all of your meaningless digging, trying to find a way to justify what happened. Just be sure to play it off as if you're still "keeping an open mind" about it all and not exactly coming out and saying the kid is a punk ass drug dealer that deserved to get shot and killed because he's your typical fearless black teenager that's "about that life" that's being backed by a "liberal media" and a crowd full of racists that cry racism.

Haha, like I said...still digging.

 

There can be anywhere from 1-4 murders a day in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Why doesn't the national news cover EVERYTHING, in every city, in the United States? I'm betting it's because there are only 24 hours in a day.

[Flash]

No one here is justifying anything at all stop [expletive]ing making it seem like we're on Zimmerman's side. We're actually all on the side of the kid in that he absolutely DID NOT deserve to get shot. Read my post where I posted my theory of what could've happened and tell me if I'm being the racist bigot you're trying to make me out to be.

 

[expletive]ing pathetic.

How thrilling discourse would be without dissenting opinions.

Then shut the [expletive] up and leave it at the kid getting shot and killed. He's dead. This isn't Whitney Houston with cocaine, alcohol and weed in her system, causing her death...it's a kid that was unarmed, shot and killed because someone didn't follow police orders and continued to stalk him. No need to throw him under the bus for anything.

[Flash]

So now we're not supposed to discuss the biggest news story in the country right now? Meh, I think I'll choose to keep discussing it with people who wanna have a reasonable discussion about it. Not those who resort to telling members to stfu because they don't agree with me on every little issue.

 

Its not like me and ECN were the only ones posting in this thread, and its also interesting that there are a couple other members who agreed with what I had to say. I guess they're racist asshole's too right?

 

I never said one bad thing about the kid, nor will I. I found that picture and even then said I wasn't sure if it was Martin or not, also completely disagreed with that right wing biased article that was AWFUL journalism but go ahead and keep labeling me as a racist bigot even though I've stated a hundred times I'm on the kids side.
