Why is there so much variation in this gun culture in each state?
Something like this zimmerman case has never happened over here..how can a country love the gun so much.
Oh you find it "disturbing" :gay5:Quote:

It's NEVER happened in the UK?!?!? Dude in 2005 police IN ENGLAND shot a guy 8 times and he was just standing there being Brazilian in the middle of the day.
Americans love guns because Americans believe in liberty and individuality. The gun levels the playing field when it comes to crime, the idea that any private law abiding citizen could be packing heat really sinks into the mind of a criminal and they want nothing to do with robbing someone who could draw down on them.
The media play up gun violence to try and get Americans to give up their guns but I tell you you're safer WITH a gun than without one.

The police had guns that killed the brazillian.
Do you have a gun big boy?
There is no point banning guns in the USA, it is intrinsic in their history, culture, attitudes, values and behaviour.
The Braziliian was shot because he had the wrong colour skin, they thought he was Muslim.
You don't believe in liberty? Aaaaand there's the problem with England and the whole of Europe. You're scared of your own freedomQuote:

People shouldn't fret so much for Zimmerman. Both he and his ex-wife stand to become millionaires after getting books published, movies made, and apparently selling paintings.
What liberty and freedom are you talking about?Quote:

Stop beating around the bush.

The press has certainly done this case a complete disservice. Personally, I don't think Zimmerman is either as "guilt-free" as some of you believe, nor do I buy into the sensationalism that includes posting pictures of Martin as a young innocent kid. The real truth involves fault on both sides, which is why I think Zimmerman deserves some type of punishment.
Regarding his story..... that's what publicists are for. Georgie will certainly get coaxed into selling a version of the story that will sell. And people will line up for blocks just to buy whatever there is out there regarding the story. Oh, I think Zimmerman will do just fine down the line.
Zimmerman is about that american dream. Gotta give him credit.
So true.Quote:

Wonder what the verdict would have been if roles were reversed?.
