Obama & the rest of the Liberals are loving this crap.
While we and the rest of the country are arguing over this trial few are paying attention to mess of a country they have made.
While the end of the trial was going on last week news quietly reported our national debt past 17 trillion.
Not many are talking about the cover up they did in Bengazi.
And anyone know what the current unemployment rate is, 10% ?

My biggest gripe on the economy has always been home values, but those are actually doing much better, so I'm not as pissed at Obama anymore

You actually believe that number :-)
Bet you believe the national debt is only 17 trillion also.
I think a better gauge is how much is the public handout numbers up from last quarter ? Being welfare, Dissability, ect.....

Zimmermans call to the police will be one of the main factors in pursuing Fed charges. It proves his intent was to stop a potential crime, not kill a person.

Even Alan Dershowitz was quoted as saying the only person whose rights were violated was Zimmermans, Alan Dershowitz, Mr. AcLU attorney..

you'd think: that all gated communities would have BUILT IN surveillance camera's
with signs posted..... to that effect

rather than have a single person making rounds....

so far the technology behind the surveillance camera's thus far has been piss pore ..........

Meanwhile since the verdict was announced over the weekend there were probably a dozen or more black on black killings throughout the country.
You won't see Obama, Jackson, Sharpton or any of the other extortion experts commenting on any of those killings.

That's not how the law works. The lack of evidence gave Zimmerman's lawyers the ability to tell any story they wanted...the just did a better job then the prosecution.

Of course it is the way the law works. Not proven guilty!

Since I don't agree or judge black people as the writer claims , I'm actually a little offended by this paragraph.
It is ironic however that you want Zimmerman guilty without sufficient evidence .

Had the prosecution done their job there was certainly evidence to support a manslaughter charge.

What evidence was that and would it have proved him guilty without a reasonable doubt?

The prosecution had the judge on thier side and still couldn't win. Several prosecutors looked at the evidence over those six weeks until Zimmerman was charge and the prosecutor who charged Zimmerman was the only one that could be pressused into it.

Reread the second paragraph.

The President will NOT speak about things he is financing.

Putting Blacks in Prison is too Lucrative a Business....

Apparently George rescued a family from an overturned SUV. I heard on MSNBC he only stopped because the vehicle was white . Obama came out and said 35 years ago that could have been him driving
