You seem to have an issue with Jesse Jackson's title of Reverend. You chose to place the term inside quotations as if it is phony and by implication he is lying by using the title. You have no difficulty giving him your own pejorative title. Please edify me about your expertise in the "correct" use of Reverend and why the Reverend Jackson does not deserve to have it used without derision by you. He has been an ordained Baptist minister since 1968.

Not to worry about any rioting. Gov Rick Scott is fired up and ready to go against any rioting, real or perceived.

Boy Howdy.

I don't know who should be called Reverend, Most Reverend and/or Your
Excellency or Holy or any of that. In my very humble opinion some seem to deserve it more than others.

There are a lot of shysters wearing robes and a lot of good folks trying to figure it all out.

I know what I think. But I wouldn't try to change anyone's mind on that issue. It is too personal and way too close to our nerves.

I sure hope that neighbors in The Villages would have done something to attend to a victim laying on the grass before taking pictures of the other guy's bloody nose and scratches on his bald head.

Zimmerman sure is a despicable excuse for a human being. Overweight cop wannabee (who could not get accepted as a cop) bully who cannot back up his bravado without a gun.

Why do I get in these debates?

And what would you do, other than contaminate the crime scene? Also, we get it...you dislike George Zimmerman. There is probably no need to keep posting your negative feelings for him, over and over again.

How do you know this - give me some proof - not speculation.

And it has been a very lucrative for him. He has a estimated net worth of $10 million. I wonder how much of that is from his preaching of the gospel?

How do I know what? I said I hoped Villagers would see if they could provide aid to Martin. If you see an injured person, that is what you do.

As for my Zimmerman phrase, what part is not true?

re your hatred...
What is despicable about:
being overweight?
wanting to be a cop?
being brave?
carrying a gun?

I am taken aback that any of those qualities or the combination would provoke you to hatred. The last three are virtues in my book and hating overweight people these days would necessitate having very few friends.

From what I've watched on the television there should have never been any charges brought in this case

[Bucco]

Posing a few simple questions that I hope someone might answer...

1. How many posters who traditionally vote to the "left" of issues are or have supported Zimmerman ?

2. How many posters who traditionally vote to the "right" of issues are or have NOT supported Zimmerman ?

3. Has anyone changed their feelings on this case since the media of our choice instructed us on how to feel. From guilty to innocent or vice versa.
