He shouldn't have done that.



You are turning into Bonk.

Yes, you did.

Murder, by definition, is the illegal act of killing a human being. You have convicted him before he has even seen trial. You are an overly emotional retard that can't think past his tears of injustice and rage.

Oh. I see. Semantics again. How about killed? Let's try that.

What's repulsive is that an adult shot and killed an unarmed teenager, hasn't been charged or arrested, and there are people defending the killer. That's truly repulsive.

Now, is that better for you?

Damn fool.

Yes, you were using semantics again. You seem to love to use this emotionally laden language that just begs for crying jags and a run for chocolate. Stick to the facts, and you'll be fine.

And 'killed' is completely correct.

Excuse me. But you are the one questioning my word choice. That's semantics, dummy. I'm attempting to change it to your satisfaction. Does my newest sentence update still not meet with your approval?

Edit: Oh, it does. I'm so thrilled it has your approval. That's sarcasm, in case you missed it.

I pointed out that your ploy of using emotionally laden semantics was intentionally misleading and based on emotional hand-wringing. If you didn't play semantic games based on your obviously very emotional state, I wouldn't have had to do that.

Don't you love a full circle moment? You said:

Ahhh, the sounds of a lynch mob charging with torches and pitchforks, led by the nose by the media and leading the way before the trial has even begun.



Excuse me, but isn't lynch mob an odd word choice? I believe it incites an emotional and hand-wringing response. Oh. And look at that. Torches and pitchforks. And look at that 'led by the nose' cliche. Isn't that a shame you chose such an inflammatory phrase.

You see where this is going?

Like I said, you're a fool. And much like common sense in your head, I'm done with you.

the whole scenario is the result of two people that didn't know how to back down.

No, Martin is dead because someone who shouldn't have had a gun had a gun.

You cannot prove what you state yet because you don't have all the facts. I can. I don't need any more evidence than the body on the ground to state for a fact that Barney Fife should not have been armed. In fact if he wasn't armed he prolly wouldn't have been so quick to strut around asking people what they were up to.

I certainly hope my Neighborhood Watch Captain can handle a 17 year old kid without shooting him. If not...we need a new neighborhood watch Captain.

One that's armed with a phone and some common sense.
