Nope...you've got me there.

I only have life experience living and working and dealing with inner city youth...I guess that's what I meant about "walking the walk and talking the talk".

But please, paulandjean...share the information about this case that you have with all of us so that we, me especially, can start thinking outside the box.

The show Rookie Blue last night was about a police shooting of an African-American by a Caucasian cop in a poor neighborhood's convenience store. The victim had the same initials as Trayvon Martin and was named Tyler Marks. 'Rookie Blue' 'A Good Shoot' Recap: Question... | Gather

This could just be a co-incidence. Not sure when this Rookie Blue episode was written.

The episode went into the chaos created in the poor gang-infested areas by this cop shooting.

I will not go further into the storyline just in case people taped it and have not watched it yet.

There are some who will hate George Zimmerman no matter what the verdict is as they would not trust the media nor the Sanford PD. There will be others that will always blame Trayvon Martin no matter what the evidence shows.

I was merely asking PaulandJean if they actually lived in the inner city while teaching there.

But let me ask you a question, Buggyone. If he is found not guilty and, according to you, will have "a lifetime of hiding", do you actually feel that that would be the sentence he deserved? A "lifetime of hiding" even if he is found not guilty.

I opine...you decide.

No, I do not. My viewpoint is that if found not guilty that Zimmerman is a free man and should be able to walk the streets like you and me.

However, there are many who will revile him - like those do with Casey Anthony - and may want to harm him. That would be wrong but just may happen.

I agree with you to the point that Martin was walking home, Zimmerman had called it in to the police. He should have left and let the police handle it. He had done his job. It would have been the end of the story.
