Justice for Trayvon??

Leading Dem casts doubt on possible DOJ charges against Zimmerman

A leading House Democrat questioned Friday whether the Justice Department (DOJ) has the evidence to mount a civil rights case against George Zimmerman, the man acquitted of killing an unarmed black teenager in Florida.










Rep. Henry Waxman (Calif.), the top Democrat on the Energy and Commerce Committee, said in a television interview that "it seems unlikely" Attorney General Eric Holder would file discrimination charges against Zimmerman.

The killing of Trayvon Martin and Zimmerman's subsequent acquittal have sparked demonstrations around the country. Protests were scheduled nationwide on Saturday as disappointed court-watchers urged DOJ to pursue charges against Zimmerman.

Waxman's comments put him at odds with members of the Congressional Black Caucus, who have said that Zimmerman violated Martin's civil rights in February, 2012, by pursuing him through a neighborhood.

"I haven't heard that they could show that there was anything with regard to race involved," Waxman told C-SPAN's Newsmakers program.

"There was a boy and this fellow Zimmerman thought he was up to no good and they got into a fight.

"Maybe he decided [Martin] was doing something wrong because he was African American, but there was no clear evidence that was the supposition. It seems unlikely that they could make a case."

Waxman also said he understood why jurors came to their conclusion in the case.

"I can see how a jury trying to reach a verdict beyond a reasonable doubt for guilt could have a reasonable doubt and come to the conclusion they reached," he said.

I have a memory of Vietnam protesters waving a Viet Cong (sp) flag while John Wayne was speaking. Duke went after the protesters who ran and I don't think there was any violence. I also recall Rick Monday (baseball player) grabbing an American flag from protesters trying to burn it.

Would violence have been justified in either case?

No. The first example was lawful freedom of speech, and Wayne could have been busted if he had done any more than he did. The second would depend on how the protestors got the flag and, possibly, on whether not the burning would constitute a fire hazard and on certain exceptions to the First Amendment.

Is there anything one person can say to another that justifies assault?

It's a shame we can't put your pedophile ass on ignore.

Why is that? Are you frustrated by my use of logic, expressions of opinions supported by fact and intelligent discussion?

There is a concept sometimes called "fighting words." Words or other communication can be so hateful that the person to whom they are directed goes righteously berserk and attacks the person who uttered them. The case you used would probably not be an example of that but, if the person had just escaped from a Cuban concentration camp, that might be. It is a tricky concept and would apply only in certain isolated cases.

The next time you use either logic, facts or intelligent discussion will be your first.

You're little more than a liberal-baiting troll, a koalabear/bra_man69 one trick pony. You abuse your moderator status so we cannot ignore you.

Lmao there you go again telling everyone how you ignore people when you don't just another lie from you fat fuck.
You're the last person needs to tell anyone how they can't have intelligent discussion are the use of logic and facts, when 99 percent of your post are about vet and kB.

[jeninflorida]

that's what I thought. it takes a special kind of person that would rather hold his hand out begging for money from strangers...than a man to stand up and improve his life.

if you have kids, will you also teach them to be beggars? how did you suppress pride or self worth?
