George Zimmerman Trial - (Adam Buckley's View)

Once again, Canadian dark humourist Adam Buckley gives us his "angry opinion" on a current event & responds to some of his critics in the process. NSFW for swears.

No Martin is dead because a gun fired a bullet into his heart causing cardiovascular failure.

No one else besides Zimmerman witnessed the struggle. The physical evidence show'd that his life was not under threat. We have no way to read his mind, we don't know if he felt scared that he was going to die, or whether he felt angry because he's a pathetic loser who was getting overpowered by a teenager.

You weren't there, no one was there. When a private moment happens between two people EVERYONE ELSE IS WRONG. We'll never know if it was self defense. We only know that a gun fired by Zimmerman killed a teenage boy.

Who said that Travon went home. What Crap new are you listening to? There are no evidence of that.

Martin is dead because of self defense not race.

But in the eyes of the law, the end result is not enough to judge the man guilty - since Stand Your Ground exists, motive is an essential part of judging.

Going on pure hard evidence is impossible because of what you said yourself only Martin and Zimmerman was there.

I don't doubt that race was one of the reasons Zimmerman even got after him and I also don't doubt that it was an indirect motivator for the Jury to decide him Not Guilty. That said, the law doesn't really care what I think.

What do you mean "But" I didn't say he was guilty. I specifically said nobody knows that he's guilty, and that you can't prove that he's guilty.

I would add though, that he would've most likely been found guilty if not shot on the scene by the cops if he was black. Someone pointed out that he could understand how Zimmerman could be found not guilty in the eyes of the law, but he's probably morally culpable at least for Martins death.

I was watching Louis CKs bit earlier today called "Of course, but maybe."

Of course Zimmerman has the right to defend himself, of course. But MAYBE, Maybe if you get out of your car to confront someone because of their race, you deserve to get the shit kicked out of you.

Of course Martin wasn't doing anything wrong by carrying skittles and wearing a hoody of course of course. But MAYBE, Maybe if you're black you should always wear a bright glow in the dark t-shirt and a permanent smile on your face."
