By this idiotic premises, it would have been perfectly ok for Martin to beat Zimmerman to death, because Martin was not armed. That’s intelligent thinking. Undoubtedly, liberal thought.

Are you saying Martin, the angel, had no arms?

What was he beating Zimmerman in the face with?

His feet?

Yeah, and if we could just get rid of all those guns we could stop this forever.

Start a thread and run... Classic troll behavior.

Dittoes on the troll behavior.

I’ll give credit though to mdittmar for shutting up and not replying. He posted stupidly, and any further troll-like responses by him on this thread would likely have resulted in him getting a zot.

Even an idiot knows when you’re in a hole - stop digging.

You are the rhetorical equivalent of a drive-by shooter. You throw out your dopey comment as if it were profound, and then you don’t have the decency or courage or ability to defend it.

Pacifism is evil.

In the immortal words of William Muney (paraphrased) when Martin was trying to bash out the brains of Zimmerman on the sidewalk, he should have armed himself.

Any single incident involving an unarmed citizen is one too many.

I disagree. Any single incident where a small or elderly person is beaten by a younger or larger thug because the victim was unarmed is one too many. I have known several women who got into bad relationships, even one-sided stalking "relationships", and got hurt because a 5' woman or a 5' 2" woman essentially has no chance against an average-sized man unless she is armed. I am thrilled every time that one of those women uses a Glock or a Kimber to help her turn the tables on a thug who thinks women aren't allowed to say "no".

If this is about Trayvon, depending on whether the boy was a 17 y/o who looked 12 and was just minding his own business and picking up skittles, or he was a thug up to no good and violently attacked a man who was keeping an eye on him until the police got there, I may feel very differently about this particular incident. I am 100% certain that the media are purposefully shaping this story for a desired effect, and I do not trust their spin. What none of us, other than the few alleged witnesses, know is whether the media are trying to coax a big reaction out of a real story or manufacturing the entire story.

Beating the sh1t out of someone you’re on top of and outweigh is not being “unarmed”. Besides “disparity of force” rules have legal precedent in almost all cases.

Absolutely not. But black people have to stop hiding behind their race each time they commit a crime. “Yeah, I might have murdered someone but blacks are incarcerated at much higher rates than everyone else.” Duh!

Total, unmitigated, nonsense. Have you taken leave of your senses?

Or, is there some subtle, irony at play here that I can’t imagine?

It’s possible.

Horseapples. There are plenty of situations where an unarmed person might more than deserve a bullet.

WTH has happened to FR? It’s like a complete loss of rational thought has infected many.

Depends on what the unarmed civilian is doing and whether they can be stopped, if need be, without shooting them.

I agree, save your ammo and use a machete against attackers.
Hollyweird would make a movie about the bloodletting staring
gay black people as the victims.
