Casey Anthony & George Zimmerman killed kids and wee found not guilty. Michael Vick killed a dog but got 2 years. That's ridiculous.
Seriously, Michael Vick went to jail for killing a DOG and Zimmerman killed a innocent human and goes free?
So, what the jury was basically saying is that dogs have more value than a black teen in America? How much sense does that make?

Edited by Keeker: 7/20/2013 6:22:44 PMI'm not going to defend Casey Anthony, but she was found not guilty by the justice system, so using her in the topic is invalid. George Zimmerman did kill a minor, but it was not 1st or 2nd degree, nor was it manslaughter. Zimmerman did not kill him intentionally. Michael Vick killed a dog? No, he didn't just kill one dog, he started "Bad Newz Kennels" which.. [quote]housed and trained over 50 pit bull dogs, staged dog fights, killed dogs, and ran a high stakes gambling ring with purses up to $26,000[/quote] The conditions the dogs were in.. [quote]approximately 54 dogs, mostly pitbulls, some with scars and injuries; most were underfed about half of the dogs were chained to car axles and just out of reach of each other, a typical arrangement for fighting dogs a blood-stained fighting area animal training and breeding equipment, including a “-blam!- stand”, a device in which a female dog who is too aggressive to submit to males for breeding is strapped down with her head in a restraint a “break” or “parting” stick, used to pry open fighting dogs’ mouths during fights treadmills and “slat mills” used to condition fighting dogs assorted paperwork documenting involvement in animal fighting ventures performance-enhancing drugs commonly used to increase the fighting potential in dogs, as well as to keep injured dogs fighting longer.[/quote] He was [b]proven[/b] by our legal justice system of these things, therefore he had to pay the price. The evidence was all laid out to place him guilty. He was found guilty, Zimmerman and Anthony were not. Trying to say that dogs are more important than people in the eyes of Americans is not justified with the evidence you put forth.

Aw do you want me to kiss your boo-boos from the Zimmerman trial not going the way you wanted it to?
-
Zimmerman shot the kid becuase the kid was assaulting him. Do you just expect people to roll over and let themselves be killed?
-
Cuz dogs bring happiness and thugs take it
-
Shut up with this Zimmerman crap! Trayvon was a thug, was beating up Zimmerman, Zimmerman shot him. End of story.
-
Zimmerman rescued a family last week after you idiots wanted him executed. Imagine if he had been in prison for no reason.
-
OP, you're an idiot. Pick up a book and learn about the various operations and workings of the justice system before you post more mindless drivel on these forums.

That's because white Americans are the most racist whites on the planet. Even the Germans aren't as bad as the Americans after the hole WWII thing.

All the ignorance in this thread...

Yeah.

Edited by God: 7/20/2013 7:30:30 PMNot at all, these cases can't really be compared because the main difference has to do with the amount of evidence. People can't get convicted unless the jury is completely convinced that they committed the crime. Zimmerman and Casey weren't convicted because there wasn't sufficient evidence to prove without reasonable doubt that they did in fact commit the crime and that there couldn't have been a scenario where they could have been innocent. (There was no way to prove that Zimmerman initiated the fight, and there wasn't anything directly linking Casey to her daughters death). Vick got convicted because a dog fighting ring was found in his home, complete with over mistreated 70 dogs. There was more than enough evidence that he did in fact commit that crime. It's a bitch, but it just comes down to one simple thing: Are you okay with courts being able to convict anyone they think committed a crime, which would get people like Zimmerman and Casey convicted but also would result in innocent people being imprisoned? Or do you believe in innocent until proven guilty, possibly letting some criminals go for the security of knowing innocent people are unlikely to be punished for crimes they didn't commit?

Ever heard of self-defense? And there are plenty of animals that I value more than humans, no matter the location. Zimmerman killed a criminal punk that was trying to murder him, you're a fool. Also, by your asinine logic, dogs have more value than white kids since that black guy got away with killing one in a justified manner.
-
In America.. a GANG Banging wannabe kid, who happened to be black in this case.. IS worth less than a Dog.. A Dog that doesn't have the ability on its own to know right from wrong.

No, black kids matter... [spoiler]...when they are in Africa[/spoiler]

I see what you're doing. OJ Simpson also got away with murder. Are you saying a white woman's life is valued less than a dog?

Pic says "Knew people who fought dogs" interpreted that as "He fought and killed a dog". Also why can a black person shoot a white person and it doesn't get national attention, yet a white guy killing a black man causes outrage? Even Obama is acting like a victim so you literally have a racist as a president. It's no longer racism against blacks and minorities it's racism against whites.
-
You do realize hyperbolic and invalid comparisons are what leads to things like people calling Obama a socialist, right? If you twist it enough, you can make any story sound interesting. This is especially evident in both the Zimmerman and Anthony cases, when the media convicted them before the evidence was ever presented. I'm not going to tell you why your statements about "innocent" aren't necessarily well-founded considering the evidence available, because there's no way you haven't heard them, and you've likely decided to ignore them because they don't fit the narrative you're trying to weave.
-
It was not the same Jury. It was not a racial thing. If you would have watched the trial in an unbias outlook, it would be wrong to convict him based on the evidence. His only guilt is being a moron.

America for you.
