Upon reading the article, it seems that the police are covering up for the shooter or their own incompetence.

hey, it's not just my idea! look this guy must have a portable mri or something.

http://www.usc.edu/programs/neuroscience/faculty/profile.php?fid=65


"Our research program focuses on brain mechanisms that predispose to antisocial personality disorder, psychopathy, crime and violence. We have found reduced glucose metabolism in the prefrontal cortex in murderers, together with glucose reductions in the corpus callosum, left angular gyrus, and abnormal asymmetries in the amygdala, hippocampus, and thalamus. Prefrontal deficits particularly characterize impulsive, affective murderers as opposed to predatory murderers.

We have also been finding structural brain deficits in violent offenders in the community. Such individuals with antisocial personality disorder have an 11% reduction in the volume of gray matter in the prefrontal cortex as assessed by structural MRI compared to control groups, together with reduced autonomic activity during a social stressor. The orbitofrontal cortex and middle frontal gyrus seem to be particularly compromised."

The first sentence of the article pretty much laid the groundwork for the whole piece.


It goes from African American male to White male. I have a Dominican friend that is black. And he corrects people all of the time. He gets called African American. He says he isnt African. He is American. And if you dont want to call him black, call him Dominican American.

No, the reality is the shooter is an idiot with extremely poor judgement that will no doubt end up in prison for 10 years or so if he is lucky.

What does that have to do with the Associated Press calling him a white male in their articles?

I've often felt that the country would be served well if it installed huge hinges on the part of florida where it attaches to the rest of the nation, then we could just randomly dunk the whole state under the ocean for a month or 2 and then raise it up and start fresh.

I've listened to the tapes, the kid is screaming for his life and still he is shot by a man who is twice his size, 125 lbs vs 250 lbs.

Why, well because he is black.

If I was black I'd be outside the police station that has jurisdictional authority over this case right now with a molotov cocktail in my hand, effing SOB's.

Sometimes justice can only be had when you demonstrate to the appropriate authorities that this type of thing will not be tolerated, and that includes VIOLENCE!

The dude would be in jail if Florida did not change its law because of the NRA. Pretty much every other state you have a legal duty to retreat before using lethal force... he did not do that.

I have no idea what is going to happen... it sounds like he followed the black kid around and then the black kid started beating the crap out of him (he had a bloody face and head wounds when the police showed up)... that is when he killed the kid.

Honestly it just sounds like an idiot with very poor judgment... he wanted to be the "gun-toting" hero of the community.

It is just pathetic when you have laws that justify behavior like this... honestly Florida and the NRA are partly to blame if he gets off...

edit: just look at the facts. He called 911 like 75 times in the last 3 months reporting the exact same crap. He was the self-appointed, legally sanctioned gun toting, neighborhood watch leader. His goal in life was to become a police officer and was studying for it.

He followed the kid and started a confrontation... the kid was justified to start beating the crap out of the lunatic... but the lunatic was also justified to use self-defense. That is the only thing the jury will see... before they would be able to say given the whole circumstances was he in a situation with no other option?!

The NRA is composed of lunatics like this one... who probably think they are the hero of the community "protecting" us. They have lobbied to give themselves legal justification looking for trouble... it is obvious when you hear them say things like "I dont want no one looking at things after the "heat of the moment"... they want to shoot first and ask questions later... no jury would convict anyone of any crime for protecting their right to be free from injury... this law was designed exactly for these fringe cases.

It is just sick when you have the law promoting this behavior... it really shows the value we put on human life.

Nope they switched to the "needle" several years ago.

They made the change shortly after a guy started smoking when they used the chair on him.

You can't blame the law for this. The law was not passed to allow this. The state attorney down there needs to do his damn job and charge the SOB. If not the DoJ should start an investigation.

I heard the tapes also. You could actually hear the poor kid crying for help in the background while the 9-11 call was taking place. It is just disgusting what they get away with there.

I have a close friend who lives there and was severely injured by police. He wasn't guilty of anything, never resisted or fought. I sure hope there will be justice for this kid. There wasn't for my friend but at least he is still alive and I am glad for that much.
