-- And the chances of her giving up a single shred of testimony that paints him as anything other than a sweet,caring pediatric surgeon-in-the-making are...what?
Zero????

I'm sure she'll say all sorts of nice things about him. But she'll also be asked to give sworn testimony about what she knows, what was said during the phone call, etc.

This is ridiculous! I doubt anyone under the age of 40, even knows ‘coon’ is an archaic slur.

Maybe he thought it was Eric Cartman.

But first, they have to have an underlying crime

All they need is a reason to investigate, and a racial slur is the trigger. That's why everybody is bending over backwards to find one, and they will. This is the Florida Ballot fiasco all over again, and it's a national disgrace.

On an unrelated note, is anybody else having problems with the server? I can't even get into my pings...

Indeed. Can you imagine the outcry if Zimmerman had called him “Nigga” - per Martin’s tweets?

This tool place in Florida where lots of raccoons live and dig through trash cans leaving a big mess.

Captain Zimmerman as an officer in the NW must have to deal with messes left by raccoon on a regular basis.

I bet that gets rather frustrating.

You’re right. If she can’t help spruce up the prosecution she wont even be called in. At the actual trial, if any, it will be a different story.

The words FUBAR and Cluster-F*%k are the only way to describe this entire situation.

Now they are looking to see if this is a “Hate Crime”.

Even under the most crude interpretation, I don’t see how this could be a hate crime.

They can fabricate a reason to investigate. My point was that investigation, regardless of the outcome (e.g., there is clear, unequivocal evidence that Zimmerman was uttering a steady stream of racial epithets), is useless (other than the obvious propaganda value, and ginning up the desired mob violence) without a crime to attach it to. There has to be a manslaughter, assault, or similar conviction, by the state.

In a Grand Jury, she will not be called unless she helps show cause for charges to be filed.

If they get to trial, it’ll be a different story. She could cause damage, although it’s hard to assume anyone doing more damage than Martin’s Twitter persona.

Whatever it takes to make a federal case out of it, right?

Well, exactly.

My understanding is that the US DOJ has to accuse Mr. Zimmerman of being motivated by racism in order for his actions to be a violation of federal law.

If whatever he did has no race component then it is a matter for the state of Florida to resolve.

What about the racial slur Trayvon used as part of his twitter handle? Is the FBI planning on investigating that?

I can’t believe all this crap......I listened to the recording at least 5 times before any reference to “coon” was ever mentioned and each and every time I heard “F’n punks” being muttered.......That was at the 2:20 mark of the audio.....

But there is evidence Zimmerman used a racial slur under his breath just before the attack.

You keep posting this same crap over and over again but yet you don't substantiate your claim!

Time for you to either take your crap or get off the pot!

"I bet a racial slur was used and it was in fact Treyvon who used it against Zimmerman."

How about the t-shirt being sold with the vulgar ethnic slur "Pussy Ass Cracker" surrounding Zimmerman's picture.

Sounds like Eric is going to find something, even if he has to make it up.

Remember how the played 13 seconds of the 5-minute Rodney King tape, and pretended like that was all there was to it?

Deja vu all over again.
