You have total miss read the constitution. It is the very thing that guarantees the right that you can walk down the street .

He does not have the right to ask in the first place. Any if anyone was beaten to a pulp where is the medical report.

He does not have the right to ask in the first place.

On more than one occasion, I've walked out of my house and tapped on the drivers side window of a car parked across the street, with it's music blaring so loud you can't hear yourself think. When the driver rolls down the window, the first thing I ask him is 'do you live around here.'

There is nothing in the Constitution that prevents me from doing that, and so long as I am acting in a reasonably civil manner, I doubt I would be running afoul of any local or state ordinances.

This is no different in principle from what George Zimmerman did, if indeed he was the first to make contact. Now, you can certainly argue the wisdom of doing such things, but I doubt very much that you can argue it's illegality.

Unless you have a compelling argument that contact between two citizens is, in itself, illegal, then this so called right that you think Mr. Martin has simply doesn't exist.

That said, I'm not about to condemn the man until I know all the facts, or at least a good portion of it.

.

While the Zimmerman ‘white’ on black killing is covered 24/7 on the MSM with an outpouring of rage and charges of a racial hate crime, where is the concern- where is the rage about the home invasion, torture, beating and the murder of the elderly white couple by ‘African Americans’ in Oklahoma just the other day?

The 90 year old war veteran husband was beaten, his jaw broken, shot in the face with a BB gun and now barely clings to life.

The 85 year old partially blind wife was raped and beaten to death.

Where is the 24/7 MSM coverage

Where is the outrage?

The more dribs & drabs that get out, the more this smells like a setup by a blackwash lynch mob.

I agree 1000%.....

The nefarious plan was to trick some dopey white/spanish guy into killing a black kid. They drew straws and Martin pulled the short one.

They are devious bastards.

How about the silence on the 13 year old boy who was set on fire by two black teens?

So you are the judge and the jury. I’m glad you are not involved in the law. Our constitution describes how this should be handled. I feel sorry for you.

You can't fix stupid, so don't try. Just feel sorry for him/her.

There are so many lies that have been told and repeated, they have become the truth to the lynch mob.

The evidence says otherwise.
