PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."
This reminds me of a recent homicide here. A local high school student was killed in his home during a would-be drug exchange gone bad. The student was killed by a fellow classmate, along with two others. The victim's mother at one point spoke out and said (almost exactly), "My son is not a drug dealer. He goes to church every Sunday." Evidence and investigation proved he was. The mother basically looked like an idiot, and it was apparent she didn't know a lot about her son - something I suspect is true about a lot of other parents.
This whole story is tragic. At this point, I still agree that none of this would likely be an issue if Zimmerman had not pursued, as he was instructed by the dispatcher.
I feel so much sorrow for the parents. No matter what, this was their child, and I would never want to go through the pain that they are going through in that regard. I don't know that they have really had time to grieve.
