I don't know many facts about the Zimmerman Martin case I can be sure of and probably never will.But it burns me up when the "news" outlets show pictures of Zimmerman unshaven and having the worst day of his life,and then show pictures of Martin when he was a 12 year old boy.

You have to realize that the media editors are almost all Liberal in mind set...They and the television producers are the ones that determine the stuff that is presented to the public...
We used to have a really good reporter at the local newspaper that was police friendly,,,as opposed to the paper's publisher...He was instructed to change the content of a story that he had done to make the police department look questionable and quit when he refused to make the change...
The next guy was friendly, but a lot more subservient...
The editor was the main squeeze for the publisher and he liked her to dress in those school girl short pleated skirts and black patent shoes with knee high white socks...Does that tell you anything about his character..??

Close Dawg.Yes OT I know what you mean.I thought Cronkite was slanted over the war,and he was,but not like now.I don't know how to get any news at all now that is close to the truth.I sometimes think BBC is better than most for news about US.

I got this picture in an email, it is supposed to be Travon, but I think this guy looks older than 17.

SB, those are pics of Trayvon Martin. However, it's not the kid that was killed in Florida. That young man lives in Savannah, Georgia and is no relation.

HB,how old and how big does a person need to be before he ain't counted a kid? If he was setting on my chest,I would have to do something,he would be to big and heavy for me to move,I would be in trouble.I have noticed through the years that he who strikes the first good hard blow is hard to whip.Especially if the other fellow don't see it coming.

You're right, tnshootist. It is habit to call young folks 'kid'. I'm not suggesting that Martin was not capable of being a threat. I don't know. I do know that those photos are not of the Trayvon Martin that was pursued and killed by Zimmerman.

Lotta (kids) that were 18 and some 17 killed in Vietnam,they were men in my book...

...The editor was the main squeeze for the publisher and he liked her to dress in those school girl short pleated skirts and black patent shoes with knee high white socks... Wait, let's back up here. The real question here is whether or not she was attractive. To me that's the bottom line, er, so to speak. Given that she was a newspaper lib I am guessing not....
