OK. Try crossing the border wearing a hoodie. See how it goes.Hes not going to get shot you dumbass.
edit: im sorry i reacted like that to your irrelevant statement.
The point is that fair or not, logical or not, others will judge you based on physical appearance when you walk out the door.How did a job interview get introduced into the discussion?
Ok. So if there are just two people involved, just what kind of an investigation could the police conduct?I was reading the Wikipedia entry and whatever happened, the laws in Florida are fucked up. Zimmerman claimed his right to self-defense and the police could not disprove it so he walks free and clear. That sounds pretty fucked up to me. At least do a full investigation. Fuck, anybody could claim self-defense if there's only two people involved and if the claimant is lucky enough to be the one left standing then he's free and clear.
Sounds bush league to me. But hey, that's Florida.

"Shouldn't" has nothing to do with it. The reality is that it does scare people. And you're a ridiculous idealist if you think it doesn't. And you're lying to yourself if you're saying it doesn't bother you to have a bunch of kids wearing their hoodies up.we are not talking about an interview and wearing casual clothes.
we are talking about you shouldnt wear a hoodie because it makes others feel uncomfortable. of course people are going to judge others but its the actions people take is what is important not what they are wearing. some kid wearing a hoodie minding his own business shouldn't scare people bottom line. the message shouldnt be "kids dont wear hoodies" the message should be "adults don't be fucking stupid."
yet you fail to grasp that by talking about border crossings and other stupidness.
Did you have your hoodie up, or were you just wearing a hoodie? Or are you missing that key point?ive done that several times no problems. and thats just as irrelevant. i wont call you a dumbass this time though.
we are talking about one kid with his hoodie up. and it doesnt bother me if there are some kids just hanging out minding their business with their hoodies up. is it raining? is it cold?"Shouldn't" has nothing to do with it.

Maybe you "shouldn't" check to see if your doors are locked when you drive through the bad part of town, either. You're still going to do it, or your guilt at feeling that way is going to make you specifically not lock your doors.
Ridiculous.... And they are usually wearing jeans so are kids now not ever suppose to wear jeans, white socks, Nike/Adidas running shoes?Like Geraldo said, when people hold up a convenience store, they're usually wearing hoodies
Exactly!stand your ground doesn't mean chase after some one after the 911 dispatcher tells you not to.

and my car doors automatically lock when my car hits a certain speed. please dont assume what you think i do.
and even so me checking that my doors are locked in a dangerous area ≠ chasing some one down that their presence makes me feel uncomfortable.
1.) You lie to yourself. A lot. Because if you think you wouldn't lock your doors in a bad neighborhood if you nanny car didn't lock them for you, you're either a fool or a liar.stand your ground doesn't mean chase after some one after the 911 dispatcher tells you not to.
Golly, did you read that part?Florida's law is meant to allow people to defend themselves when they feel they're in danger. No, the law wasn't meant to allow an armed citizen to follow another person, set up a dangerous situation, and then shoot that person "in self defense". But if you know anything about the law, you have to know this: despite most of them being former lawyers, politicians are absolute garbage at writing "mechanically" good laws.
you are a dumbass i think most cars that are atleast 13 years old have that feature. if so i would make sure that my car is locked where ever my car is regardless if its jane and finch or the bridalpath.1.) You lie to yourself. A lot. Because if you think you wouldn't lock your doors in a bad neighborhood if you nanny car didn't lock them for you, you're either a fool or a liar.
Yes i wore my hood on a many occasions and once i was asked to remove it . Do i wear my hoodie inside? that a fucking retarded question. i dont wear my hoodie inside because im fucking inside. not because of society norms and i wouldnt apologize for it either.3.) Now answer the question: do you go through border security with your hood up? You don't, do you? Do you go through a store with your hood up? Do you go through life with your hood up?
yes its not being a liar its called being a rational human being. and not just jumping to conclusions like a moron or a panophobic idiot like yourself.."Oh, no, before I'm suspicious of someone I first go through a mental checklist: is it raining? Is it cold? Maybe that kid just has a bad haircut and is trying to hide it?"
you must be a 12 year old. the police and the public have access to 911 phone calls.The gf isnt the 911 dispatcher you dumfuck. they dont need to talk to the mourning gf to find out that He fucking followed the kid after being told not tooZimmerman screwed up. And he's likely going to get buried for it, and deserves to. But if you're stupid enough to think there's any evidence that he went in there with evil intent or that the police had any probable cause to arrest him before the girlfriend came forward (again, 3 weeks after the incident and after the police wrapped things up to the extent they could).
Seriously, babypowder, what ARE you saying? That the police had probable cause before the girlfriend came forward? That Zimmerman is some evil, racist a-hole who deliberately assassinated a black kid? Or are you just sticking to the hoodie issue (that you've already lost, but never mind that) because that's the biggest issue your mind can comprehend?
you're a fucking idiot.Like it or not, wearing a hoodie makes people nervous. It makes YOU nervous. You're lying if you say different, or you're even more mentally challenged than everyone already thinks you are.
Right. But do you check to make sure your door is locked in a bad neighborhood? That's the question that you're avoiding.you are a dumbass i think most cars that are atleast 13 years old have that feature. if so i would make sure that my car is locked where ever my car is regardless if its jane and finch or the bridalpath.
Then you're a rude asshole.Yes i wore my hood on a many occasions and once i was asked to remove it . Do i wear my hoodie inside? that a fucking retarded question. i dont wear my hoodie inside because im fucking inside. not because of society norms and i wouldnt apologize for it either.
I'm not scared of anything, but I'm prepared for everything. Being otherwise is just being stupid. Like yourself.yes its not being a liar its called being a rational human being. and not just jumping to conclusions like a moron or a panophobic idiot like yourself..
Right. Which I don't dispute in any way, shape, or form. But the girlfriend's testimony was what changed this story, dummy. Do you know how I know that? Because the first mention of Trayvon Martin on this board was after the girlfriend spoke up. After she put a face on the story. The Wikipedia article Keebler linked? First put up after the girlfriend spoke up. You know how I know that? Because the first article referenced was dated March 22nd. And even with the girlfriend's testimony, the truth is that there isn't probable cause to arrest Zimmerman. I think the public pressure with change that equation, but without the public pressure (which, again, came after the girlfriend came forward) Zimmerman wasn't and couldn't get charged for this.you must be a 12 year old. the police and the public have access to 911 phone calls.The gf isnt the 911 dispatcher you dumfuck. they dont need to talk to the mourning gf to find out that He fucking followed the kid after being told not too
It's so enjoyable to engage in debate and discourse with someone who can hold a conversation at a five year old's level.you're a fucking idiot.
how am i avoiding the question? can you read? if i make sure my doors are locked anywhere i am why would i have to check when i know they are locked? Do you even use your brain or is it just dead weight?Right. But do you check to make sure your door is locked in a bad neighborhood? That's the question that you're avoiding.
you must love back peddling. the local police didnt do their job properly why do you think that the chief of police had to step down? and that the FBI is involved now? maybe because the local PD fucked up big time on this investigation? yes. and yes you're a fucking moron there's articles on this dating back to the 8th of this monthRight.

"Check to make sure", Babypowder. It's the same thing as double checking to make sure you've got a condom when you go out on a date: yes, you know you always put one in that pocket when you go out, but you check to make sure. And you answered the question: you don't have the imagination to realize that automatic mechanisms can fail because there are specific situations where your doors don't lock. It's called being careful, you dumb fuck.how am i avoiding the question? can you read? if i make sure my doors are locked anywhere i am why would i have to check when i know they are locked? Do you even use your brain or is it just dead weight?
Are you incapable of reading? Because of public pressure. Point to me where the police had (or even HAVE, at this point) probable cause to arrest Zimmerman. Please note that Zimmerman isn't under arrest right now. "The FBI is probing this case." And NOTHING will come of that! There's no reliable evidence whatsoever that there was a hate crime in this case, and the FBI has no jurisdiction over this case.you must love back peddling. the local police didnt do their job properly why do you think that the chief of police had to step down? and that the FBI is involved now? maybe because the local PD fucked up big time on this investigation? yes. and yes your a fucking moron there's articles on this dating back to the 8th of this month

i dont do redundant redundancies because i dont have ADD like you. when you have good habits you dont need to double check. and if you re read my post i was talking about if i didn't have a "nanny" car but that 20+ year old rust bucket you probably drive around in."Check to make sure", Babypowder.

The FBI, the Justice Department, etc., are all flapping their gums over this because fools like you read a few headlines and think you understand what happened.
Specifically, what did the locals do that was against police procedure, Babypowder? You DO know what police procedure is, right?
its cops turning the typical blind eye on a crime because its a fellow "LEO". sounds like proper "police procedure" right? right?article that Nuprin was too stupid to read said:"Right now we're all on pins and needles," Tracy Martin said. "When I asked the police why there's been no arrest, they told me they respected [Zimmerman's] background, that he studied criminal justice for four years and that he was squeaky clean."
I drive a 2 year old hybrid (bought new), sold my 7 year old sports car earlier this year (bought new), and am casually in the market for a new sports saloon, but I'm considering putting the money into another real estate investment instead. I own and operate approximately a dozen rental properties in one of the few markets in the US that didn't lose value: I'm doing fine, thank you. What do YOU do and what do YOU drive, Babypowder?i dont do redundant redundancies because i dont have ADD like you. when you have good habits you dont need to double check. and if you re read my post i was talking about if i didn't have a "nanny" car but that 20+ year old rust bucket you probably drive around in.
Ok. Where is it? What do you believe Zimmerman did that was criminal in the state of Florida, and where is the evidence to back it up?they didnt Not arrest him because there was no probable cause. because there obviously was probable cause. you are the only moron that believes there isn't
Do you know any cops? Have you ever talked to them about how they feel about want-to-be types? They weren't going to turn a blind eye to Zimmerman's actions. It's just that Zimmerman's story holds water, none of the evidence goes counter to his story, and if his story is true then there's nothing they can charge him with.its cops turning the typical blind eye on a crime because its a fellow "LEO". sounds like proper "police procedure" right? right?
and yes you're still a fucking moron
