Hi Sandra,
I just wanted to comment on your Zimmerman post. I actually disagree with your assessment, and have since seeing this picture on the news last night lost my confidence in where this process is going. In my opinion, and I have not studied body language at all, this look is one of calm contempt. I was quite surprised to see how he has tanned and lost a few pounds, just enough to look healthier not gaunt or worried at all. There is a glimmer of contempt and smirk in his eyes, and his lips are pursed in silence as if hiding something.
In reflecting on the fact that they made sure to tell us that he turned himself in, I believe that this is the look of a man that has been told that this is just a formality, it does not mean we think you are guilty, this is for your protection and the protection of the public, etc, etc, etc. I think that they are pulling the wool over many people’s eyes.
The choice to charge Zimmerman with second-degree murder was just to make the burden of proof that much more difficult, and if anyone took the time to really listen to the comments made by everyone, they would understand that this was far from a victory (Sharpton: don’t start celebrating yet, we haven’t won anything; Traeyvon’s mother: we only wanted an arrest, just an arrest; Atty Crump: take a lesson from these people [the parents] and how peaceful they have been), etc.
Yes, although you could be very right and this man could very well have some mental issues, based on his facial expression he doesn’t seem worried about a thing. Very interesting indeed…
Like I said I think we have seen as much justice as we are gonna see. An arrest and charges. I think he will go free
Possibly.
I agree with Mike Tyson’s assessment. Shoot his azz? What we waiting for?
Any shatt wrong with z. I can do “this look” all day long. I’ve perfected it too
Whipty Doo!
His eye tell me this:
I am mad at you America! I am mad that I even have to deal with this mess.
His eyes tell me:
I have a whole lot to say. Yall just wait.
IMO of course

The jury can still hit him with a lesser charge of manslaughter. But I agree he looks a little too clam.
ehhhh, this has still just gotten messier by the day…I got a bad feeling about all of this…
Sadly, I think he’ll get off and they arrested him just to calm down the masses.
Why should he be worried. He killed a man in cold blood, took damn near 45 days to be arrested for it. Got charged with 2nd degree murder knowing he will plead down to manslaughter! Hell, I’m sure he’s even in “PROTECTIVE CUSTODY” while in the slammer. WHAT THEE FCK HE GOT’TA BE WORRIED’BOUT?
I’m not saying anybody is wrong but the pessimissm can be down right sad…one minute folks were saying ‘they’re not going to arrest him’, ‘he’s out the country’, now that he’s arrested now it’s ‘he’s gonna go free’ blah, blah, blah

That’s that look Kenya was giving Evelyn
@ Tatted…I personally think he’s been in protective custody of some sort this whole time. I don’t believe he just popped up out of nowhere, I think he’s been guarded and prepped and will be released with a slap on the wrist IF THAT.
Meanwhile, we havent heard anything about the investigation of the Sanford Police
Why should he be worried? A jury of his peers? He’ll be fine.
Especially if he finishes his internet friendship gathering campaign.

exactly! that’s how crazy MFs look…in case yall haven’t been around any.
They are seeing if this will silence the people. f they think this is enough then they have seriously have under estimated this generation. This is not the time of our parents.
If they want a war then let that him go and you will have one.

typical kneegroes….
So basically, Black people don’t care about #JUSTICE FOR TRAYVON?
Gotcha…carry on.
#BLACK PEOPLE ARE SO HARD TO PLEASE…NO WONDER PEOPLE DISREGARD US
BTW, that man-child looks very scared!
because nothing will happen. an arrest is one thing but a conviction is something completely different. zimmerman knows this is protocol. even if they sentence him in the end, he’s not really going to jail. sure, you’ll see him in the jumpsuit and cuffs, but that’s just for the cameras. that will put minds at ease. he’s not going to prison.
@ MZD
HE AIN’T WORRIED BECAUSE HE HAS NO REASON TO BE WORRIED!
EXACTY @MOTHER JEFF what thee FUK
Hey Point! :wave:
For the record, I HATE that I think things are going to go down like that and REALLY hope they don’t but, this case has been going downhill since day one.

i think the justice department is mum on this but it’s gonna happen. sanford police are NOT going to get away with it. i think the state prosecutor probably has to finish the trial first because the justice department has to use her evidence. they don’t want any of it to get out.
I agree with this letter
Morning and whatnot.
I don’t see how other ppl who are not under the influence of a substance take mugshots any differently. And I don’t see how anybody who has not studied body language can evaluate a picture so simple to begin with. IMO, of course.
I am glad he was at least arrested. Now we will have to wait to see how the jury selection goes. Either way, we are headed towards some sort justice.
THE MERE FACT THAT HE HAS BEEN ARRESTED, I’M CERTAIN HAS HIM REGRETING HIS DECISION TO SHOOT TRAYVON
AND HOPEFULLY THAT ALONE WILL HINDER SOME VIGALANTE FROM TAKING THE LAW IN HIS OWN HANDS AND SHOOTING ANOTHER UNARMED BLACK MALE
FOR FEAR OF LOSING THEIR OWN FREEDOM, RATHER IT BE IN JAIL OR THE INABILITY TO WALK THE STREETS WITHOUT FEAR OF SOMEONE KILLING YOU

I do think the correct charges were filed though.

I think so too Love. I think they are going to grant him bail today and someone is going to handle his azz on the street. Thinking about this potential bs is pissing me off
@Naija
I think the attitude comes from many injustices (Troy Davis). I want to see legal justice done, but the fact remains that justice isn’t really blind
I read in the other post where somebody said the Mother said it was a accident.. when did she say this and why?!?
People need to keep in mind this is the same state that let Casey Anthony walk…
So don’t be surprised when this nicca walks free….
*awaits BOND hearing*
if this nicca is released on bond i guarantee someone will be there to follow that black van from jail to his safe house…
No bond would be preferred but i think he will get a $750,000 bond.
keep in mind it only takes 10% of the bond total to get a nicca out of jail so I’m sure his family will cover it($75k-100k).. so he will be on the streets in no time…
I am sick of seeing dudes face.
The comments from news blogs are sickening. To think that people actually feel this man is innocent and are arguing on his behalf with any little smidgeon of what they feel is justifiable is heart wrenching.
Idiots are saying things like “Send all the blacks back to Africa – give us our land back”, and “We’re tired of blacks using racism to get over all the time” (MSN blog) It’s an insane world.

I wonder what he thought when that shot fired. I bet it wasn’t Oh Shish!! It was, I finally got one.
I say this because on the 911 call he said “fugging coons always get away”. He wanted to at least get one in his mind. That Bish did not count on all this backlash because in his mind he was just another n*gger. I am
because the last words he heard was from this MURDERER!!!
He did not count on his parents loving him enough to not let their son die in vain. I
those parents for not giving up on getting justice for their son!!!! They deserve a

Lord have mercy
They gone use this against her. smh….Whether Zimmerman walks or not, I still think he wont survive in or out of jail. Especially if he gets off.. People gone take matters into their own hand.
He did not count on his parents loving him enough to not let their son die in vain. I those parents for not giving up on getting justice for their son!!!!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE LOVE A PARENT HAS FOR THEIR CHILD, AND THAT’S EVERY SHADE OF SKIN & ECONOMIC BACKGROUND-THE MAJORITY OF PARENTS WANT AND LOVE THEIR CHILDREN AND WOULD DO ANYTHING HUMANLY POSSIBLE FOR THEM
WE’RE THE MAJORITY AND THOSE WHO ABUSE/ABANDON ETC. THEIR CHILDREN ARE THE MINORITY
Naija Gal
Get out of my head! I agree, we need to be optimistic and speak positive energy into atmosphere and believe that justice will be served. Theres power in the tongue, folks keep saying he’ll walk, I’m sorry, I’m choosing to believe he won’t. Shouldn’t even be saying that.

Could not agree with you more. This man has and always will be “protected”. Point blank period. Have been saying this for weeks now.
LOL@that he ain’t worried. You don’t go into hiding if you’re not worried about your safety. You don’t call the DA’s office if you’re not worried about your freedom.
