I think IB did a pretty decent job of summarizing how the MSM misrepresented this case. The one I would add is that they actually called Zimmerman a "vigilante". Often.
Let's add "police" to the list of things you are angry with Old-T. Sure sometimes there are bad ones but I haven't seen any credible info from you, the media, the police, the eyewitnesses, the special prosecutor, Zimmerman or the Martin family that rebukes the Sanford police department's decision to release Zimmerman.
Sorry, I'd rather not have Al Sharpton determining my judicial backlog either.

shudder I occasionally agree with some things IB posts) does not mean I am an MSN clone. On ballance they are as stupid as the Beckites.
Point #2: I did not comment on the Sanford police--I commented on all the folks here who say "since the police decided not to arrest him, he must be innocent". Letting the police decide innosence and guilt was the part I was against--a far bigger issue than the specifics of this case. Another example of some (hey IB, please note that word, "some", if you need help understanding what t means, ask me) of the right wing extremists fawning over KGB tactics and not even realizing their Communist symathies.
Point #3: About Rev Al, I completely agree with you.
