what would an interactive video of stand your ground instruction be like?

Odds are very remote you'd encounter a rape or an act of violence.

Being a hero in the case of a medical emergency is much more likely.

And good to be prepared in either case.  Reminds me, I need to get my CPR training updated.  Thanks for the reminder.

Why only be prepared for that?    Seems like a good boyscout would be prepared for almost anything.

I think you will find that most folks with the presence of heart to obtain a Conceal and Carry license are the same folks who keep their CPR and first responder credentials up to date.  In many cases you get to see both violence and medical emergency, and in the case of the former, the latter is likely to be required.  A conceal license does not give you the right to kill, it gives you the right to stop violence or death using force.  If you intend to shoulder that burden, it is only responsible that you also have the skills to render aid when necessary.

A relative of Zimmerman's claims that he molested her for 10 years. And that his family was racist.


Let's line up what we know about his past and personality. Committed perjury, was charged with domestic violence, charged with hitting a cop, was accused of racially harassing a coworker and now a being a molester. What a guy.

Let’s see release all this to the media, so we can assure he gets a fair trial.   Roll Eyes

Faux News has set up an interview with GeeZee and Hannity. If I were his lawyer I'd have to warn against this.

I have the same reservations as to the wisdom of it as well.  But I guess they figure if the prosecutor is going to try this in the media by leaking details of the case and witness statements which may not be used at trial, he needs a forum for a rebuttal.

Your are psychotic. Leaking is the wrong wording. Try "made public by law".

Loved this interview which was really just a fund raiser that FOX participated in as sponsor of the "Save Gee Zee" fund.

Looks like Gee Zee kind of appears like he's still confused. Hannity asked him if he had to do this over would he do anything different and Gee Zee said "no." In light of the fact he apologized to Treyvon's parents in the interview the question remains "if you have no regrets, why are you apologizing." And if he was just doing what God wanted him to do, why didn't he leave the gun behind or better yet stay in the vehicle until police got there?

More bizarre behavior.

Inconsistent, and that will hurt him. But not so bizarre really. He is a pawn caught up in the national divisiveness that Fox foments. They couldn't care less about justice, guilt or humanity. They need this kind of food.

He is sorry for the parents that their son was killed. That doesn't mean he doesn't feel justified in killing him. His lawyer is using Fox to stimulate donations to pay his fees. Its all pretty mercenary.

Conan, the judge/jury decide the trial. Public opinion doesn't. If public opinion mattered....OJ Simpson.  The media have always behaved this way and all the parties involved know their roles.

At least, that's my take.

Um, how do you pick an IMPARTIAL jury, when all the salacious details have been leaked out to the media?  You do remember a right to a fair and speedy trial, don’t you?  Seriously, how do you seat a fair jury when details a judge may rule inadmissible in court, have been heard by potential jurors?  He can say you can’t consider anything you’ve heard outside the court room, but that still doesn’t quash any prejudice toward the case a juror may have by what they have seen and read outside the courtroom.

It’s only since news became entertainment in the 1990’s this has gone on.  When you need to fill 24 hours worth of space instead of a couple of 30 minute newscasts a day, you tend to beat cases like this to death.  Had this happened in the 1970’s or 1980’s I doubt this would have registered on a national scale.

And TTC- psychotic?   Hi Pot!
