does there seem to be a strange thread between Mr. Page in Wisconsin and Mr. Z's self defense for shooting a 17 year old?
Anyone at DU ever read something called businessinsider.com? As normal stumbled on this on my OperaPortal homepage, which yes I stumbled on via a neighbor's son the geek. Amazing stuff I read today. About WhiteSupremist groups, and their Leaders/founders.
Keep in mind I started reading about Zimmerman, that the Prosecution had "accidentally" leaked evidence. Ended up stunned by the background of these "leaders". Of course now I wonder HOW I ended up where I did.
How did we end up with this much hate? This level of assured self-righteousness? I realize I'm old, but am stunned. You don't shoot people because you are happy with your life, you don't shoot people because you care about or like them. There are people I loathe, did not start out to hate, but time and events left little other options, but cannot say that I would shoot or physically harm any of these few. True I might hope they get a large boil on their butt, but that's about the extent. Is there something very wrong with me that I do not understand violence?
WHAT can Zimmerman testify to that takes away murder? HE left his vehicle on his own, and he was told "we don't need you to do that"-he knew a squad was en route. What happened after that is by his own choices. Zimmerman was not in his own home, he was not being threatened on "his" ground, he was on someone else's terra firma. It is one thing to protect yourself, your home, your property, but this mess is none of those things. How can stand your ground even qualify as a defense?
