Don West is about pissed off enough to work for free and Mark isn't far behind him. This has been a travesty of justice since day one.

Chip in ten bucks, just give up a big mac, you will feel great every time you remember it.

I think it’s foolish to assume that Trayvon Martin’s parents worry about their son’s reputation. Heck, look at the way the kid was neglected while he was alive? Look at how well they raised him?

No. They’ve pushed it this far, they are prepared to push for more publicity and the dollars they hope that it brings.

Don’t forget that the Media will quarantine the worst aspects of the testimony with their editorializing. At the same time they will amp-up anything that shows Zimmerman in a bad light. What else is New?

There’s a 3rd act in this 3-Ring Circus — the Obama Administration doing its best to stir resentment in the African community. This is just a cheap tactic for them. It’s been done in other ways by earlier Democrat politicians. The Martins are just pawns in a bigger chess match.

I’m guessing lawyers are viewing this carefully.

I suspect they're also looking at the money the Martin's got from the HOA settlement. I'd bet money, marbles and chalk those lawyers end up with most of that before this is over.

This wouldn’t be the “usual” kind of wrongful death suit — this is the entire left wing against one man. Wherever the “parents” are getting their money to fly all around the country, stay in fancy hotels every night, and eat in restaurants three or four times a day, that’s where they money would come from to hire the lawyers — the shadow would-be government of the leftists.

Even if you think they’re still paying for another trip somewhere every couple of days, recall all those professionally made protest signs at every protest around the country. Somebody’s paying for those.

For these leftists, an outcome with whitey knowing that he’d better not try to defend himself against one of “our sons” is a very good investment no matter what the cost.

i’m seriously someone who shy’s away from a fight. In this case I would say, “Let’s get this show on the road!”
As a parent who raised 3 sons I suggest to Mrs. Martin to be very careful of wanting financial gain in this case. You might just not want to hear what your son was REALLY up too!

The defense apparently didn’t bring up self defense

The defense leaned heavily on self-defense. Mark O'Mara's closing statements are on YouTube.

They won't take this to the civil court because of all the money that is now flowing their way from all over the country. Money that Sharpton can get his hands on. He knows how to work this money thing from his Tawana Brawley days. How do you think Al became a rich man?

Civil court will tarnish the halo of Trayvon. They won't let that happen. Their current "ban stand your ground laws " sideshow will be a money maker for the foreseeable future.

“Over at the Dem channel they were complaining that it was unfair that Zimmermans defense was so well funded by contributors where-as a black defendant would be dependent on a public defender.”

If St. Trayvon is their patron saint of injustice, why don’t all those blacks and smarmy whites just pony up? Isn’t Jay-Z’s worth in the billions? What about Jamie Foxx? Oprah? It seems to me there’s no lack of money for them to take up this cause celebre if they wanted to.

In short, Trayvon is the archetype of young black males.

He represents all that is bad about America. He has no good attributes.

The fact he is dead is a good fact

Frankly I don’t know that all of Martin’s dirty laundry coming out in court in a civil suit will do anything to diminish his halo in the eyes of the blinded black community. Look at how much we know now about his drug use, possession of stolen jewelry, streetfighting, headbanging, et al and they still ignore that to propagate the myth of “he should not a gotten outa da car”.

Well I think it ridiculous to base you hopes on any semblance of black pride in the Martin family.

Your solution doesn’t end up with whitey face down in a mud puddle with a black man’s boot on his neck, waiting for the last bubbles to stop.

So, they’ll not choose that.

Surely they can do that after the robbery, no?

The family will go for a civil trial, and all trayvon’s faults will be called smears and stereotyping while we are shown family members in tears.
