It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

There's nothing Zzzzzingy about anything he writes that is either Zzzzzing-rich or Zzzzzing-worthy. He's Zzzzzing-less in a world of Zzzzzings and true Zzzzzingers. That sounds like something THE DECIDER would say. Except you're not THE DECIDER.........I am. And I just decided that you should shut the hell up.

NBC edited the Zimmerman call to police to purposely incite racial tensions. __________________________
NBC issues apology for edited Zimmerman 911 call
NBC News issued an apology Tuesday for the way it handled the broadcasting of the 911 conversation between George Zimmerman and a police dispatcher in the Trayvon Martin case.
Following reports that NBC aired audio of the call was edited in a way that implied Zimmerman was racist, the network launched an internal investigation.
"During our investigation it became evident that there was an error made in the production process that we deeply regret. We will be taking the necessary steps to prevent this from happening in the future and apologize to our viewers," the network said in a statement cited by The Washington Post.
Zimmerman, a volunteer neighborhood watch leader, admits shooting and killing Martin one night in February, but he has said the shooting was in self-defense and justified under the state's "Stand Your Ground" law. He also said Martin attacked him, but that and other details of the case remain in question, as authorities continue to investigate whether to charge Zimmerman.
NBC's "Today" show ran the edited audio of Zimmerman's phone call to a police dispatcher, seeming to show Zimmerman saying, "This guy looks like he's up to no good … he looks black."
A transcript of the complete 911 call shows that Zimmerman said, "This guy looks like he's up to no good. Or he's on drugs or something. It's raining and he's just walking around, looking about."
The 911 officer responded saying, "OK, and this guy — is he black, white or Hispanic?"
"He looks black," Zimmerman said.
The abridged conversation between Zimmerman and the dispatcher that NBC ran on March 27 has been blasted by media watchdog groups as misleading. Critics have said the edited version was made to suggest that Zimmerman

He'll be charged with something, after the acquittal is when things might get interesting.

This whole thing is ....... once again ...... over-reaction to irresponsibility. We do a lot of that, don't we?
Hint: If you're black....you are NOT special.....just like everyone else. Duh

the media is really pissing me off in this case... while im not on any side in this case, if he made multiple calls to LE, and nothing was ever done about anything, i can see how someone would get fed up with it, im going through it myself... does that mean its ok to just shoot someone? absolutely not... but, BIG but, if he was attacked by the kid, well, thats mistake number 1, and people should realize that... maybe if idiots would get it through their head, that if you try to harm, rob, rape, or whatever to someone, you have the possibility of being killed, they may think twice... problem is, they dont, and dont seem to care anyways...
where was the media coverage and outrage on the Channon Christian and Chris Newsome murders, the young white couple in Knoxville that was carjacked by 4 black men, and 1 black woman... Chris's penis was cut off, then he was shot 3 times, and set on fire, and CHannon was raped and then killed and put in garbage bags... Chris was also raped, and sodomized, CHannon was sodomized with a broken chair leg as well... yet the media didnt talk about it, and noone to this day really even knows or cares about it... i have my opinion on why that is, but i will keep it to myself...

Harvard University law professor Alan Dershowitz told MSNBC that the Zimmerman affidavit was irresponsible and unethical. “It’s so thin it won’t make it pass the judge on a second degree murder charge… It’s not only thin, it’s irresponsible.”
