Thanks for the comments. Of course I realize that I don't have to read threads that don't interest me. And I mentioned that.
I guess I shouldn't have started this thread. I didn't mean to sound complaining. And I am certainly not offended by the posts, or posters. I was just surprised how many threads there are discussing the trial and assorted issues on a "hometown" forum...especially one with a dedicated "no political discussions" policy.
However, I think Villages PL has opened my eyes:

If I say, "I'm happy for George Zimmerman." That statement is not political but you certainly could read a lot into it. The fact that you read a certain meaning into a statement -a meaning that was not expressed- is not the fault of the poster.
Peace.
