Out of Pod Experience

Doesn't change what happened to him in that situation. Also ****** up people trying to root up dirt on a kid armed with Doritos, and a cell phone. (That's also a blog btw who then brings up that he might have had tattoos, (And ZOMG a fake GRILL) and attempts to bring up the characteristics of the people he may have known.) Listen I know some **** bags too. Doesn't me via prozy I suddenly am apt to follow in their foot steps. And then "ZOMG kid got in trouble at school!" Once again not relevant to walking home with skittles, and getting shot...Also who the **** never got in trouble at school as a boy between the ages 12-18? If you didn't well then you're probably a joyless pussy.


Also very beckian. "Hey im just asking a question?"

Well then I should ask was Zimmerman actually a Fidel Castro sympathizer, and did he approve of Hugo Chavez?

"Were not sure, but this one guy says me might be/have been."

How is it relevant? It isn't it has no bearing on the actions of either parties? Furthermore bringing up that blog literally makes you look.... ******* ignorant. That's coming from am uber white guy too. Then again you did say earlier that hooded sweatshirt in the middle of the rain == thug. May I ask your residence, and background sir?

It seems relevant to the case now.

Never mind I take it back character assaults are fun.

What the **** happened to this thread?

I see that Ruger ran out of guns to sell. This is good news and I will continue to freely train anybody who asks.

And now that I know that doing so bothers some people around here, I will be doing it more.

I just purchased a case of factory load 9mm for my girlfriend, who is going to Frontsite this spring (the women around me must know how to use the gun when they pick it up from the pool of my blood, or get their own) . It was just under 300 bucks for a 1000 rounds. Long ago a case of 1000 9mm cost around $120. Most of the time I make my own ammo, even the bullets, and the material cost for powder primers and bullets runs around $135 for the same caliber. When I cast my own bullets from wheel weights the cost is around $50. Yes, lead! OMG Lead!!!!1!!!! All those yuppies fearing lead - while slurping the flouride, popping flouride-based anti-depressants, and eating food having preservatives (sodium chloride is not real salt) and coloring (titanium dioxide-based) - would pee themselves if they saw me with my huge lead cauldron.

(efforts by said yuppies, greeniacs, and latte-slurping urbanites to make lead a "controlled substance" continue to fail and a range I used to belong to sold tons of it to a Russian scrap dealer for cash)

Once more, as in the game, I love griefing people in RL NOT by doing them harm, but by being who and what I am and letting other people who can't stand that sit there and be bothered by it. I get as much satisfaction bothering the hand-wringers among us as I do taking down a Sansha mom and watching the incursion farmers gripe over a legitimate game mechanic and war target.

Meanwhile, I see ZImmerman is still white and more about this incident is coming out as an entire community in the USA proves once more that they are only angry about something when the media wants them to be, and totally failing at being angry over things they should be.

Oh well.

That's nice. I'm glad that capitalism is working properly and someone is making good profits off your LARPing.

Just one question: have the makers of foam balls sold out, or can I still buy MAGIC MISSILES?



So, err, what exactly is your point? Inflation exists?



Hint for the clueless: not all elements are equally bad, and not all compounds of an element are equally bad. The so-called "fear" of lead has nothing to do with irrational panic, and everything to do with the fact that lead poisoning is a very real problem and lead-based products can be very dangerous if used improperly.

You might want to read http://www.utexas.edu/safety/ehs/msds/lead.html , or any of the other search results on the subject of lead and gun ranges.

PS: if NaCl is not "real" salt, then what exactly is "real" salt made of.



Yeah, how dare they insist that people who use toxic heavy metals actually take reasonable safety measures. Lead is related to our sacred guns, and therefore can not be regulated!


You know, with that attitude you don't have to worry about being killed by the government, you'll die of self-inflicted lead poisoning long before that point.

That was directed at Shadowsword.


Multiple suspensions paint complicated portrait of Trayvon Martin



So he was likely stealing and using, and if you believe his friend, possibly even dealing drugs. And according to Zimmerman he was casing houses in the neighborhood, which is now sounding more and more likely given Martin's behavior.

And we don't know he hasn't been violent. One of his family members did allude to him assaulting a bus driver but there hasn't been anything else reported on it yet. If it happened, you can bet we will so you probably shouldn't lean too much on the non-violent offender defense.

By the way, do you know how many people in prison have their mother's name tattooed on them? Or crosses, or the Virgin Mary? Getting tatted up, wearing fake grills, trying to look and act gangsta and then complaining that people look at you suspiciously is really the height of self victimization. How you present yourself to the world is how the world will perceive you.

You turn down a street and on one side there's a group of wiggas with droopy pants and hoods on, and on the other side there's a group of Nation of Islam members with suits on, which side are you gonna walk on? Me? I'll take my chances with the NOI crew even knowing their politics. They aren't likely to mug or harass you. A pack of wanna-be thugs might.

None of this is about race, it's about thug culture. I think Martin was well entrenched into it. I don't think he was a wanna-be, either. I think he was one, and he died like one.

The fact that there was a fight doesn't prove anything, because it matters HOW the fight happened.

If Zimmerman provoked the fight (by attempting to stop Martin from "escaping", etc) without justification, it is not self defense.

If both of them got into an argument and Zimmerman escalated to a fight then it is not self defense.

If Martin attacked unprovoked then it is legally self defense, though ethically questionable whether deadly force was actually necessary.

And in any case, it's questionable whether the "in serious danger" requirement for self defense was met. Zimmerman's injuries were so minor that he didn't bother getting any medical treatment for them, so it's pretty hard to believe that his life was in danger. It's plausible that Martin was going for his gun and left him no choice, but it's also very plausible that Zimmerman simply reacted out of anger and escalated to deadly force without justification.



This is exactly the point. Zimmerman's claim to self defense is seriously undermined by the fact that he had no business being in the situation in the first place.




Do you know how many people in general have tattoos? Huge numbers of them. This isn't the 1950s anymore, the vast majority of people who have tattoos are not violent criminals.

And whatever Martin's past might be, it matters what his actions were that night. We have yet to see anything even close to a pattern of violent behavior that would make it plausible for him to assault Zimmerman completely unprovoked, and to do it aggressively enough that Zimmerman would have a legitimate belief that his life was in danger.



Of course it's about race, whether or not Zimmerman had racist motives. Do you really think that if Zimmerman had been black and Martin had been white that Zimmerman wouldn't even have been arrested and charged? Of course not.

Getting out of the vehicle was stupid. That's probably the one big thing about Zimmerman's actions that stands out. It really couldn't be clearer to me why he was rejected for law enforcement. He wouldn't be hired for private armed security either - well, I wouldn't hire him. There's a personality type that's a little too involved, a little too nosy, a little to wanna-be good guy that should be immediately washed out. Coincidentally or not, those guys are never in very good physical condition, and almost never have a military background. I know them immediately when I see them. I do employment itnerviews for an armed security company, and I'd say 90% of the time I can disqualify at first glance without them saying anything, and as far as I can remember 100% of the time my instincts are confirmed with the first few words out of their mouths.

Had Zimmerman walked in I would have given him one of my "Hello, we have you on file, goodbye *Plunk in the trash*"" interviews.

There was a case in Shreveport, LA a few years back where a kid pulled a cell phone from his back pocket and was gripping it like a gun. He was shot to death by cops. He was harmless, but they were acting in self defense. It's possible that Zimmerman's perception of the situation and the reality were two completely different things. He probably did believe his life was in danger, even if it wasn't.


There's currently a lot of missing information in what I've read on the case. I've yet to see anything concrete on what happened between Zimmerman getting out of his vehicle and Martin knocking him to the ground. I think that information is going to be key to the case. Unfortunately, it may come down to just Zimmerman's testimony.

Nyah nyah. Nothing changed. But I love the site of the fat soccermom, kid suckling on that high fructose drink, on the way to early diabetes, she's all fat as heck because of the mercury in the vaccines that caused the autoimmune response and destroyed her metabolism, and she's saying "I don't want that stuff in our bodies". Makes me want to gank hulks. That site helps me understand why the world has seen so much death brought on by nations that had elections and were considered "democratic".

This is why in Montana, where there is an average of 25 guns per household, when they see a car with California, Washington, or Oregon tags, they slash the tires and break out the windows. It's not something I would do or condone, but whenever I think about it, I cannot totally condemn it. Democracy was weaponized by ignorance. They are desperate.

They are keeping people like you away.

That's the first I've heard of that. Vaccines made us fat now? I finally have a scapegoat beyond my lack of willpower! Thank you SO much! It's not my fault, it's the pharmaceutical companies and their evil vaccines.
