The Zimmerman Trial

[Oscar Knight]

SANFORD, Fla. (AP) -- A friend of Trayvon Martin's who was on the phone with him shortly before his fatal fight with George Zimmerman says she thought the encounter was racially charged.

Rachel Jeantel testified on Thursday for the second day in a row, saying she thought race was an issue because Martin told her he was being followed by a "creepy" man. He used a slur for white people in describing the man.

Her answer came in response to questioning from defense attorney Don West about why she had given differing accounts about what she had heard.

.....I wonder what this "slur of white people" is nowadays, that I haven't already used myself ? ;D

....Ha, Ha.......All that needed now is some Old Timey Race Hustlers to add a spark to this lopsided one legged dance.

....In my opinion; If Zimmerman was not on Neighborhood Watch Patrol, but instead, walking on the a Public Street, and Zimmerman was involved in an attacked on his life......This Trial could not be happening. Zimmerman shouldn't have got out of his vehicle or approached Martin.

....I said this from the very beginning.

Zimmerman's Self Defense Education

Zimmerman took the course, along with classes in criminal justice and investigation, at Seminole State College, a public college in Sanford where he was pursuing a bachelor’s degree. He was expected to graduate in the spring of 2012, a registrar told the court Wednesday morning.

Another instructor, Seminole County State College professor Scott Pleasants, testified that Zimmerman had taken his online criminal justice class.

Pleasants’ testimony via Skype from Colorado, broadcast live on television, was interrupted when he started getting inundated with Skype calls.

Nelson also ruled Wednesday that prosecutors can show the jury Zimmerman’s job application to a police agency in 2009 and his application to ride around with Sanford police in 2010.

Lt. Scott Kearns of the Prince William County Police Department in Virginia testified that Zimmerman wasn’t initially hired because of a less-than-stellar credit history.

George Zimmerman verdict: Former neighborhood watch leader not guilty in death of Fla. teen Trayvon Martin

.......I'm surprised......Now comes the aftermath of this verdict.

[Oscar Knight]

...This incident has become nothing but a side show circus carnival act, from the very beginning. This gives neighborhood watch groups a very bad name. Everyone has the right to report suspicious acts in their neighborhood.

....If anyone comes down my street, I have no right to approach them. If they come on my property, they will be judged in my court yard.

[Oscar Knight]

...In Clayton County, there have been many burglaries and there is a reasonings behind this. If anyone relies on the Clayton County Police Department to investigate a burglary, the criminals will not be charge. Even though having witnesses, descriptions of the vehicle, and neighbors watching as the crime unfolds; Unless the criminals gets caught in the act, they will not be charge. Even though finger prints was taken, and criminals are found living close by, no search warrants will be issued. This is a fact; I have two sons that had this happened in the past. I can't even go in my backyard, without having someone attending the inside of our home......Going to the movies, restaurants, shopping, walks, recreational parks, and outside activities has been things of the past for about 15 years in this county. On second thought, can I place the blame on Zimmerman for watching out over his neighborhood ?......Using logic of realty; Where should the blame be placed ?
