You need to pick up a dictionary and check out the difference of the two words, and while you're at it don't add words to what I wrote! No fear here!

says you.......being 'leery' IS being fearful, whether you recognize that or not.

So now I am a pussy, stupid and a coward!

as they say, if the shoe fits.....look, DH, I'm not claiming that is what you really feel(you said, 'what if....?"), and I certainly went into the exchange in the hope you don't really stereotype people like that. I do find it sort of alarming that you actually defend that sort of thinking.

Is this how you talk to people when standing face to face??

sure is, if they come at me with stupid shit about being leery of black people, merely because they are black, and then citing some statistic to back up their stupidity, laziness and personal fears.

You are nothing more than a troll and don't have a clue! Most the crap you spout is just that, crap. I have been reading your drivel here for many years trying hard to maybe see where you’re coming from, it is now very clear to me.

well, YOU made it clear what you were made of, didn't you?

I can see how it might "seem" factual to you..... you are confident if your presentation 'sticks', it can be considered fact? To bad you can't just "deem" it so! That would be so much easier than having honest discourse.

Instead of providing actual evidence, or presenting a well considered objective opinion, you throw a blog quality presentation up against the wall, hoping it sticks, then accuse others of the same. It's hypocritical, and apparent in it's defensive quality to most here. Perhaps try a more aggressive, fact based, more well considered opinion, it may get more traction.

dude, I've been a clinical chemist for 30 years, and taught physiology in graduate school. I gave you informed opinion about facts in an autopsy. You choose to believe what some right-wing blog tells you, fine. Stay ignorant.

So you don't know anything more than anyone else about areas of expertise you don't have: disease, addiction, human behaviour etc. You conveniently skipped facts in your 'assessment' of the autopsy, and came to an unsupportable conclusion, that Martin was a normal young man.

find me one shred of evidence to the contrary. One. I dare you. Oh, and stick to facts, real hard data, not someone else's interpretation or guesswork, which is all you cited at the best.

Barfly,
Let me explain this in another way, because the more I read your words, I think you are misunderstanding something basic:

Let's say we are examining a body in the morgue. The deceased has bad necrosis of the liver(profound liver damage). You ask me, "would that type of damage be consistent with drinking a quart of absinthe every day for 10 years?". My answer would be yes, although I would have utterly NO CLUE as to why the liver got to be that way, as a thousand different things can screw up your liver. Now, what you are doing here, at least so it seems, is jumping to the bum liver as EVIDENCE that the person drank a quart of absinthe daily. That just doesn't make logical sense. It's a possibility,but nothing close to proof, without a lot more data, like an apartment trash can full of empties, and witnesses who watched him drink the stuff. Do you see where I am arguing your assertions now?

[Barfly]

It makes logical sense when you review his twitter, and he discusses obtaining codeine illegally, or dxm for the expressed purpose of creating and drinking 'lean'.

I can call it "purple drank" or "sizzurp" instead of "lean" if you like that better.

[Pudfark]

Proving that, initially, it was damn one sided....until the other side was left, with no choice.
Proving that the assault was started by Trayvon and finished by Zimmerman.

this is what passes for 'proof' on your planet?

Yes it is. It was for the jury as well. Many others too.
Seems the only folks unhappy/disappointed? Were them who couldn't spin it or make a buck off it.
That would be you.

Easy

Martin attacked a guy trying to protect his neighborhood and was killed in the process.
Pardon the giggling ya can't hear on this end....Slick, you're the one interpreting your guesses and that is all you have cited/sighted, at best. Even, Slick, had you chosen to make this a "civil/civil" discussion?
The preponderance of the evidence would show/demonstrate you're wrong. Just sayin'

My experience is this: "Ya talk like a turd, act like a turd and dress like a turd? You be one. "

You wanna go to the root of the problem? Look right at his parents. There's yer/our problem.

There must be some good reason (scratches head) why they don't call that shit "koolaid".
Everybody who knew Trayvon Martin ignored his problems. Further, Barfly gives more of a damn than you do Slick.

people talk crap on twitter all the time, especially teenagers. The facts are, he didn't have dexamethasone in his system(no immediate or long term use, as seen in the urine and blood labs), nor did opiates show up(true 'Lean' uses codeine). Hence, one cannot infer anything beyond the fact that if he did use that stuff, it wasn't near his time of death, and likely not chronic, ever.

Yes it is. It was for the jury as well. Many others too.

I repeat, for the sake of common understanding of the US justice system: the jury simply didn't find INDISPUTABLE evidence of Zimmermans guilt. They DID NOT find him innocent. You were in law enforcement and don't get this?

Seems the only folks unhappy/disappointed? Were them who couldn't spin it or make a buck off it.

the only thing I found disappointing was the level of white whining and knee jerk declarations of innocence of Zimmerman or assertions that somehow the deceased HAD TO BE a criminal.

That would be you.

nope, sorry.
