Asked and answered.

You mean; asked again and yet to be answered



I'm not defending Zimmerman. Calling him an "asswit" is not exactly likely to get me nominated for President of the George Zimmerman Fan Club. I'm reciting the facts of the case as best they are known and applying the law.

Sure you are - a jury found Zimmerman innocent - killing Trayvon (hope I spelled it right) in self defense.

Those are the facts, are they not?

Answered when I said "I'm calling it like it is."

That's my agenda.

Yes, you are. Credit to you. My comment on Skiing's post was, to the penetrating mind, a question as to how deep his concern for someone whose name he can't even remember actually is.

Not surprised you missed it.

Those are the facts, are they not?
No, that was the verdict. They're different.

Hardly. Your comment was simple pettiness that sought solely to refuse an answer to the question based on a misspelling.

I didn't miss a thing


No, that was the verdict. They're different.

.. And until Sharpton et al generate a verdict that suggests otherwise - the facts stand

The facts and the verdict both stand. That's the law.

I really don't know why y'all get so worked up about professional mouths like Limbaugh and Sharpton. They have no power, no influence, no role in the process of governing and certainly no role in the law.

I think y'all look at too much TV.

Agreed

Can't speak for Limbaugh, but it seems that Sharpton has the ability to move the POTUS to wax philosophical on how a victim woulda, coulda, shoulda been his son.

Let's wait and see if the POTUS speaks to Chris Lane or this war veteran... Methinks that it will not be something one would hold their breath on

You're like a viking burning books he can't read.

Just Vikings?... I am actually much closer to Roman

Teen accused in killing war vet says it was drug deal gone bad

By Keith Coffman, Reuters


One of the two Washington state teenagers accused of murdering a Second World War veteran said he beat up the survivor of the Battle of Okinawa after the 88-year-old man tried "ripping him off" in a drug deal, court documents in the case said.
Kenan Adams-Kinard, 16, made the statement to friends as he was being sought in the beating death of Delbert "Shorty" Belton, according to an affidavit filed by a Spokane police detective in support of a criminal complaint against the suspect.
Adams-Kinard said he "was trying to buy an ounce of crack cocaine from 'Shorty' and 'Shorty' tried ripping him off," the affidavit said in paraphrasing an account related to police by an unidentified witness. Adams-Kinard said he then punched Belton and took his money back, the affidavit said. Spokane police declined to comment to Reuters about the affidavit, but NBC News quoted a police spokesman as saying there was "no evidence to support" the allegation that Belton was dealing drugs


Adams-Kinard and his accused accomplice, Demetrius Glenn, also 16, have been charged as adults with first-degree burglary and first-degree murder in Belton's slaying. A friend, Natalie Flom, who had planned to meet Belton for a game of pool at a north Spokane fraternal lodge last Wednesday, found the U.S. Army veteran in his car in the parking lot with severe head and facial injuries.


Belton, who survived a gunshot wound to the leg during the Battle of Okinawa as Allied forces launched an assault on one of the home islands of Japan in 1945, died the day after he was found in the car.
The affidavit said police also seized a handwritten letter that Adams-Kinard allegedly wrote to his mother that likewise said the crime was a drug deal gone sour.
"I took his wallet and another ounce of crack from his pockets. He was unconscious, so I made sure he was still breathing, and then I took off," the affidavit quoted the letter as saying.
Flom dismissed as absurd the suggestion that her elderly, diminutive friend was a cocaine dealer. "Shorty had a great sense of humour and would be laughing" about Adams-Kinard's account, Flom told Reuters. "But it is so sick that anyone would try to pull his reputation down."

Security videotapes and photographs from the lodge and surrounding businesses led investigators to identify the teenagers as suspects, police said.
Glenn turned himself in the day after the attack, and Kinard-Adams was arrested four days later hiding out in the basement of a Spokane apartment building, police said. Glenn was being held in lieu of $2 million bond, and Adams-Kinard's bail was set at $3 million, a higher figure because he was already established as a flight risk, according to a spokeswoman for the Spokane County prosecutor's office.
