Dunn wasn't let off what are you talking aboutYeah, he didn't get convicted of first degree murder, because the charge was falseBut he still got slammed with the other chargesHe's getting at the bare minimum 20 years but it'll probably be consecutive rather than concurrent which would make it 45 years


I mean let off, as in "Got to go home after murdering a guy and eat a pizza."
Well, I agree with you there KB.

He wasn't convicted of murder because the prosecution was retarded and tried to get him convicted of FIRST DEGREE murder. Which, y'know. Requires premeditation. Now, that's not to say a legitimate claim like second degree murder would've worked. Because it's florida and poorly designed defense laws.But he legally couldn't be convicted of the first degree charge regardless. Because that'd simply be incorrect


Agreed, but I have a feeling if the defendant were of a different race. They wouldn't have nearly as much trouble

First of all, Zimmerman was not a white male.

If you looked around enough you'd be able to find plenty of cases less publicized than these where the innocent victims weren't minorities, so nobody cared whether they were killed unjustly or not. I'm not comparing myself to anyone or anything, I'm just getting tired of the rampant double standard in society over what people care about and what they don't.

You seem to be missing the part where the criminal was caught but not persecuted.

You were the one trying to self-insert, not me.
Also, Protag, you didn't read the thread.

That's a separate case.


takeout everything but the random letters at the end.

In the same severity as a life or death situation it wouldn't be something I have to deal with at all, which is why I never claimed that.


Well, you could always tell us what you're going on about.

I mean, we have two situation where an African American was shot, and no weapons were found. In both situation the white males were not arrested, and later were let off. We have yet to hear about the situation happening in reverse.

Then you come and say, "Everyone is angry at these cases because of hypocrisy, the same hypocrisy I have to tolerate."

Am I missing something here? It seems like you're comparing your plight to Zimmerman's.
The Nexerus said
Hypocrisy.


I'll play, how does Hypocrisy play into both these cases, and as something you have to deal with. (In the same severity ie: A life or death situation.)
The Nexerus said
I don't know much about either case, but the reasons people are upset are something I've had to tolerate since long before either Dunn or Martin were killed.


What have you had to tolerate?

E: That identified itself in the Dunn and Martin case?
The Nexerus said
People are getting agitated about it for the same reason.


You have obviously followed this very closely, and know a lot about the details of the case. What are your thoughts?
