Um... pix, or....

(This appears to be my sole, belated contribution this morning.)

My summary:
Trayvon met Justice. In the form of Instant Karma.
Zimmerman got Justice. Reltively. Thanks to a jury.
Funny how things work out sometimes.

Having not made either top 10 list again, I can proudly and in relatively good conscience retire to bed.

Oh, dear. Continue in this open thread, or wander over to NDH's immigration thread? What to dowhat to do?

I know. Eat this sandwich the wife has made and she and I will watch another stupid old Doctor Who.

That was easy.

Now I want cherry pie and (separately) a new wireless keyboard and mouse. (Cheap crappy plastic leg broke off my keyboard a couple days ago. Hi tech, weakest link.)

I see on Drudge that the Kenyan in Chief has "called for calm on Sunday after the acquittal of George Zimmerman." Whew. I am so relieved that he's intervened in this troubling situtation.

Oh, wait, wait, that's code for tear the place up, isn't it?

Too much Ritilin. : Soona
And weed. LOTS of weed. : MWR

I read that the marijuana is 20x stronger now than back in Rodney King's day. :Γ

Seems t'me, if the Gun Nutz, and the Rethuglican Tea Baggies, if they were everything the Other Side thinks they are...

...such rallies would be called "target practice."

I do indulge in thoughts of massive fast-setting foam bombs that would freeze such crowds in place for days, but I always remember the wisdom of President Nixon: "But, that would be wrong."

187 so, uh, there's no fuckin' way TFG is gonna let that fuckin holder go all batshit crazy on this stupid shit in a mid-term year, right? : Peaches

Is there shit soup? Do we have a stick? STIR!

"Players would become tangled up, and various body parts - male and female - would inevitably come into close and embarrassing proximity. Players would often lose their balance and fall on top of each other in a heap."

This was the beginning of the downfall of civilization.

Now I want cherry pie.

2012 listing of homicide totals... Chicago - 506

We moved the family out of the Mrs's home kingdom, my favorite city, in 1994. Our Chicago was insulated from most of the rumbling back then. When the offspring were young, we had a very good and balanced life, with wonderful support from my in-laws. It hurt to leave, and we very much missed that support (and lost our balance).

State of Okla. 2010 murder rate - 191

Recently, one of the now-adult kids thanked me for the move.

Whatever else we did wrong (everything), there's that.

MFM, as expected, is just ignoring the outcome of the trial... Basically, the fuckers are evil. : Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith

The divide between those who follow Truth and those who invest in the Lie seems to be becoming increasingly wide. With no real middle ground, and, obviously, no compromise.

I'm only up to #80 - I so behind!

JJ Sefton like sardines @ S&G reunion

I quit crowds after the day the Mrs & the 3 young kids & I stood at the water's edge on North Ave Beach to watch the Chicago air show. I suddenly realized we were being pushed out into the water and when I turned around, it was a mass of jostling humanity. We escaped quickly up the beach, and avoided Mass Humanity as a rule ever since.

Zappa - Beloit College homecoming band! (1 of only 2 good things to happen tome there, the other being the Mrs.) Saw the 200 Motels premiere with a genuine Zappa Groupie, was also the 1st movie our new baby attended (slept through it like a). His last (?) Chicago show - Frank introducing "Mr Sting" and gentlemanly taking The Coat from him was worth the price of admission. Seems there was another time; you'd think I'd remember....

33 I really do think someone is going to killGZ or someone they think is GZ. : Thunderb

We are all George Zimmerman in that regard.

Goodly mornings to the Vast Minority. Justice in Florida and a much-needed bit of rain in Oklahoma makes this Sunday morning smell fresh and inspiring.

Leviathan - last of my 2 weeks of Patriotic Doodles (lick in nink) - regards the Tenth Amendment. Special thanks to hosts & horde for this place where I can mention such work where some might be interested; and to those who clicked thru to the series, hope you got something out of it. I had fun and learned a few things in research, anyway. Webworks are free; voluntary recompense welcomed.

Now to feast on the morning's AoS!

Justice makes a nation great, and the greater a nation the more solicitous will it be to see that injustice shall not befall even its most humble citizen. Woe upon any nation when only those who possess money and influence can secure ready justice before its courts! It is the sacred duty of a magistrate to acquit the innocent as well as to punish the guilty. Upon the impartiality, fairness, and integrity of its courts the endurance of a nation depends. Civil government is founded on justice, even as true religion is founded on mercy.

I hate autoincorrect. sjlkittless not sniffless... aaaaggggg gnite

Now I think it would be good to press the offensive and go after the media, the persecutors, the judge, for their crimes in this clusterfluke.

[Crap. Posted this in the wrong thread:]

Watching Angela Corey's bobbing head while listening to the Sanford scanner.

I think I'll have some pizza and watch Dr Who with the wife. Maybe be back on the overnight.

Whew. Gonna need 'nother thread now, right?
