The jury is deliberating. The rioters are waiting.
What else is happening?
This is an open thread.

The Crawdad Hole 
Had to teach this morning, so I only caught the first 45 minutes of O’Mara’s closing. Getting caught up now.
I have to believe there’s at least one woman on that jury who will refuse to convict Zimmerman.
anti zimmerman protesters in place per fox news
WOW! Just got the 4 minute pause part. Very effective.
Agree. Points out dramatically that Martin had a long period of time to just go home safely, if that had been his choice.
It wasn’t. Martin doubled back and jumped Zimmerman, just as Zimmerman said he did.
Comment from Channel 9 FB page:
Sounds about right.
CNN has an interview with O’Mara (filmed earlier sometime) laying it all on Ben Crump. Really incredible stuff. It is a bunch of clips from the entire interview.
http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/video/us/2013/07/12/intv-savidge-omara-on-ben-crump.cnn.html
I bet when CNN got the interview they had no idea it would be like this.
I hope justice prevails. I want Zimmerman to be found not guilty. Zimmerman’s life will never be the same, and I don’t expect he will receive adequate compensation for this political prosecution. Martin’s parents have won financially, and the Democrats kept black voters on their plantation to re-elect Obama. Zimmerman never deserved this.
I want Zimmerman to be acquitted, and then to sue the pants off NBC, ABC, CBS, Shaprton, et al.
^This^
Absolutely! And I want O’Mara to file a complaint with the Bar so Crump loses his law license.
AMEN!!!!
Make no mistake…justice in this country is not blind…it is incredibly political! Many judges and justices are political appointments so however they rule, those on the other side will object…what to do. I like the way my Kpelle friends in Liberia did it….they boiled up a pot of hot oil and you had to reach in and retrieve an object from the bottom of the pot. If you were guilty, you got burned. Straight forward.
Corruption of a minor.
Jaysus. Does her mother know where she is?
Tend to agree. The girl has most likely not even had sex, let alone needed an abortion. Wonder if she’s given any thought at all to the possibility that she herself could have been aborted.
Except when it comes to paying for my birth control then I want him all up in my shit.
HONK
Speaking of shit, what is it with Dems’ scatalogical obsessions?
An offering for Satin?
Offering of Shitan.
They obviously had their shit together.
Two hours and no verdict.
I think they’ll wait overnight even if they’re ready, so they can’t be accused of a “fix.”
They just asked for a list of evidence with descriptors. They are overwhelmed. Just as the prosecution planned.
Just heard that. Seems they don’t have an initial unanimous vote on anything, so they’ll be “discussing.”
Approved list being delivered to jurors right now.
Bullshit compromise verdict is coming. Sadly, many people — especially women — think that Zimmerman should get “something” because “the kid is dead.”
I have no idea what is going to happen. That is certainly one outcome.
I didn’t say I knew what was coming; I was surmising what was going on based on 2 hours without a verdict, but thanks for clearing it up that what I wrote is “certainly one outcome.”
Are we really going to get into another semantic fight because you’re pissed at someone else? AGAIN? How else is someone supposed to interpret “Bullshit compromise verdict is coming” other than a prediction? My comment was not an admonishment; it was simply an attempt at chatter while we all wait. You offer your opinion, I offer mine kind of thing.
Let’s not get snippy with each other over bullshit, okay? Today is not the day. Srsly.
off topic and OUCH

More protesters show up. Think creating some noise while the jury deliberates might be on the agenda?
Question: will demonstrators from opposite sides (pro Martin/pro Zimmerman) be separated, or intermingle?
Good question.
Afterthought: Will there even be pro-Zimmerman protesters? Haven’t seen any yet. Hope some people do get it together and rally for him.
Watching Guy’s rebuttal. He’s using his seduction voice. Show’s what a damned sexist he is. Hope the ladies see it.
It’s all phony bullshit. We older, wiser ladies can spot that tone from a mile away, huh? 🙂
HONK
on the TV I just read that the FBI is beginning a separate investigation to see if martins civil rights had been violated.
WTH
sorry the FBI got involved in this case last year. can not find results of the investigation
This has already been done. Several witnesses/neighbors said their immediate interviews after the incident were done by FBI agents, not local cops. FBI found no indication of racism or civil rights issues in the interviews done with Zimmerman’s neighbors.
FBI/DOJ had been in this from the gitgo.
Here’s a thought: Maybe they’re investigating whether Zimmerman’s civil rights have been violated by the race hustlers….. (ok, a girl can dream)
So much for my prediction of a fast acquittal.
OT: Vile progs doing what Vile progs do best, seek victim status.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/federal-eye/wp/2013/07/12/democrats-offer-new-evidence-that-irs-targeted-progressive-groups/
Do they now have a whole 10 progressive groups that were “targeted” now? And by targeted, we of course mean fast track to approval.
*Comment deleted by author-too many bad words*
😆 😆 😆 MSNBC playing John Guy clip from summation over and over and over again:
Yeah.. Isn’t it every pot smoking, purple drank swilling, truant, wannabe thug, cracker hating child’s worst fear?
I’m getting really sick of this “Saint Trayvon vs the Racist White Dragon” bullshit. ALL the pundits are saying that GZ “racially profiled” TM. Let me ask you this: If there was a rash of burglaries that were being perpetrated by 7 foot tall Asian women, do you think GZ would have thought TM was a possible perp? I think not. Not from the evidence provided to describe GZ’s character.
My heart goes out to TM’s family as it would to any family who lost a child in such a violent, tragic fashion; an event that could have been avoided so easily. But my heart also goes out to the families of those who have had a loved one sacrificed on the altar of political machination because of intentionally provoked rancor, as it seems is most likely going to happen to GZ.
I sincerely hope that the evidence will exonerate GZ, as it all seems to be. But I have little faith that justice will served, because of the twisted spectacle this case has become.
Ok…. I’m better now…..
I sincerely hope that the evidence will exonerate GZ, as it all seems to be *in his favor*
Ok – now I’m done
Thousands of young black men die every year from violence. Most are killed by other young black men.
My thought was that it could have been avoided if TM would have just not tried to be Super-thug. The whole “You’ve got a problem now, mothefucker” followed by a sucker punch is what got him killed.
He HAD 4 minutes to just go home safely. He CHOSE to double back and jump GZ, like the stupid little teenage thug he really was.
OT Obama gets a cameo in RED 2

Posted a similar tweet upstairs.
They were also smuggling in used tampons.
Poo-flinging monkeys.

Prosecution to Zimmerman jury: “follow your heart.” Translation: “the mob outside knows where you live.”
The jury is done deliberating for the day. They will start again tomorrow morning.
Saturday? WIll they stay the whole weekend if needed?
But..but..but…… what about the mob waiting outside? What will become of them?
I guess they just told the demonstrators to talk to the hand. I’m glad that they are going to take care of themselves, rest, eat, sleep and then get to work. They sound like reasonable and wise women.
What are they supposed to do? Wail, gnash their teeth, scream “Why, God, why do we have to stay in a Motel 6?” That jury consultant made damn sure no silly, psychotic twits were chosen for jury duty. Hurray for jury consultants from Dallas.
Well that was a tense wait. Glad it’s over for now. Sleeping on it is not a bad idea.
agree.
now all the demonstrators can just go home, too. 🙂
yes
You didn’t take the under in the over/under betting pool.
