The murder of the British soldier was horrible and those sick bastards should suffer. I read a bunch of interesting comments about how this somehow proved that Muslims were violent and horrible people, despite denunciations by 99.9% of Muslims. The irony is that those same people making those claims didn't assert that Christianity/Catholics were inherently violent and evil when the IRA was targeting British soldiers and killing them in acts of terrorism just a few years ago.
A short memory? Hypocrisy? Racism? You pick.

I thought the right wingers loved guns...oh I see the difference now

So, the Right Wing who loves guns and shooting the Trayvon Martin, now is trying to paint him as a thug b/c he sent texts about guns? Wait a minute, I thought they loved guns and everyone should own them. OH I get it...they don't want black people to have guns. That's really what it boils down to isn't it.
He might have smoked some pot, so this is some sort of proof that he should be dead? Most Americans have smoked pot and many own guns, so they should be shot? Deserve to be shot? read the comments.
Of course Zimmerman had a bloody nose, he followed a guy and attacked him and that guy fought back. Zimmerman's intent to engage was clear from the 911 calls, despite being asked not to engage. If someone chased after you and attacked you, you're going to defend yourself. How is the aggressor allowed to claim he stood his ground (which I understand he's not going to claim now), it was Trayvon that stood his ground after being engaged and attacked.
And as for why releasing texts about him talking about guns is supposed to paint him in a bad light when the Republicans and the NRA who really want to see Zimmerman get away with murder last week were doing everything they could to celebrate guns and make it really easy for people to get them...typical Right Wing Hypocrisy. The only thing more pathetic is the racism inherent in their hypocrisy.
