"Just Say Yes"

To be or not to be...

OMG!!!  George Zimmerman has gone from murderer to good samaritan.  hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, whew.  And to add further insult is that his attorney has the audacity to say that being a good samaritan is just the type of person he is.  Well, if George is a good samaritan then I'm George Zimmerman.  Furthermore, as far as I'm concerned that was a desperate and pathetic publicity stunt.  Give it up, George.  Man up as you're not fooling anyone.

What type of good samaritan shows no remorse of taking the life of another, especially a child?  If you didn't have it out for Trayvon Martin then what type of man does not have the decency to extend his condolescences to the parents of their child's life that you took.  I've noticed no remorse for initiating the conflict that resulted in taking that young man's life. 

So to be or not to be a good samaritan?  There's no question about it.  If George Zimmerman is a good samaritan then I'm in denial right along with George and anyone else on his team.

We are our own worst enemy

I truly don't believe that we as American people know what we want or need.  For example, Security vs Privacy.  Do we really want security?  Do we really need security?  Of course, we do.  The United States is a huge melting pot, in which, it seems anyone and everyone is welcome.  Okay, be that as it may but there are many people with an agenda that despise us as Americans and are going to any lengths to express and/or demonstrate their true feelings.  And they come over here in disguise.  True or not.  So, therefore, we are literally sleeping with the enemy.

Now we look to the CIA, FBI, Homeland Security, the President, the Military, the police dept, the fire dept and anyone else for protection.  We want these people to put their lives on the line for us when all we do is complain and try to tell them how to do their job.  There are just too many Edward Snowdens and George Zimmermans running around here shooting their mouths and guns off when they need to back off.  We are an extremely vulnerable country, especially now, thanks to people like Snowden. 

When we elect and/or hire individuals into a particular office to ensure protection and security we don't get to tell them how to do it as if we know it all and are in charge.  We're sounding and acting like a bunch of adolecscents throwing a tantrum.  We talk just too much.  Our governement is extremely intelligent.  They are aware of the potential danger that we are in jeopardy of everyday and are going to any lengths to prevent and avoid another "911", Boston bombing, etc. so if that means monitoring phone lines, tracking license plates, etc, so be it.  I don't think we get to stipulate how they monitor anyone on US soil in any shape, fashion or form in order to insure our countrys' safety. 

America, listen, we've got Snowden running all over the world, telling anyone who will listen all of our secrets and strategies.  Now we've got the nerve to have the very people who are in charge of protecting us explaining and devulging more secrets and strategies which should be private all because we don't approve of how we're being protected.  I fear, we're at the point where our enemies can just put down their weapons and take a load off.  Yes, they may as well sit back, have a coke and a smile and save face while watching us destroy our own hopes, dreams and ourselves as "We are our own worst enemy".

It's not what you do, it's how you do it.

Now that the  verdict is in, people are reacting with violence as if that is going to overturn the verdict.  How is this outrage of violence going to solve anything.  And don't you think this type of behavior is a bit uncivilized and outdated?  What message are we demonstrating.  That we  possess the same killer instinct as George Zimmerman but it's okay for us? 

I've heard remarks that Zimmerman had the right to defend himself.   but he didn't have the right to take away another's right to walk down the street in his own community, to be a child or to a fair hearing as he has received.  Had he cooperated with officials when he was instructed to back off and let them handle the situation Zimmerman would not have gotten his himself in the position to have to defend himself and Trayvon Martin would be alive today.  My concern for this community that Zimmerman was appointed to and now permitted to run through again with a concealed weapon looking for another's standards that he doesn't approve of.   I don't recall anyone being questioned of Zimmerman's "block watch team" regarding his character and his prejudices/concerns of Trayvon Martin or anyone else, for that matter.  Even though he's been granted the permission to carry a concealed weapon again, I think he should be banned from that community as he may have other targets/agendas and think that if he got away with it once, he can do it again.   Furthermore, it would be an insult to the Martin family and a gross lack of respect to have to look up and see the person who took their loved one away.  It's a very unhealthy situation to live in.

I've also heard that the both of them could have "just" walked away.  However, let's keep in mind as to who the adult is and who the minor was. 

In any event, the jury is in, as well, as the verdict and it is what it is.  Zimmerman was found innocent.  But I would not want to be in his shoes at all.  He has received a life sentence as he has to live with his guilt for the rest of his life. 

In addition, their is a possibility for him to answer to civil charges so, please people,  let's just "STOP" this violence and nonsense before we have to regret and protest yet another senseless tragedy.  Yes, I get it that you're angry and so am I but it's not what you do, it's how you do it.
