    Do your own research. It's easy to do. Google it and get started. Then try to spin it.

    Yes, not newsworthy, except for the fact that by now it's been reported by just about every news organization in the country.

    We didn't even hear about Zimmerman/Martin "day one." That story really didn't hit the wires/internet until a few days later.

    Oh come on, we can't let something like this pass without thinly veiled racist commentary and whining about how poor George Zimmerman, who shot and killed an unarmed kid, was mistreated by the Evil Liberal Media.

    That comparison is valid, in Australia the natives are armed, and the whites aren't according to the government laws.

    If that were the same in America this wouldn't have happened, because after the Travon Martin case blacks are more fearful of armed white men, and may have perceived the white as a threat.

    So they may have acted in a pre-emptive counter attack like Bush did in Iraq, to eliminate the threat, though that is speculation. The reasoning is that in Australia whites aren't perceived threats by their natives, because they are mandated to be unarmed by their government, while the natives are allowed armament.

    Yawn. More claptrap.

    What does this have to do with ANYTHING? The people on this forum who continue to bring up Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman are acting as if this story is being ignored by "the media," and it's NOT. They desperately want it to be, so they can feed and sustain themselves off the sweet, sweet outrage.

    And btw, the kid isn't even in the ground yet and these nice folks in this thread are politicizing his death so they can vent their frothing-at-the-mouth hatred for "liberals," minorities, and Obama. Disgusting behavior by a bunch of sociopaths.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Except that's not true. It is one of those things that is not true yet is attempted to be passed off as truth. What do we call those again? Three letter word.

    Now that we know the race of the killers. Interesting how that turned out, huhm :) Blacks are only 2.2% of the pop, but yet the killers were black. I wonder what percentage of violent crimes are committed by blacks in Stephens County even though blacks are a minority... Some how I think its disproportionately high.

    Now I see how people try to "win" debates here. They simply throw the kitchen sinkful of whatever nonsensical BS they can come up with at their opponent, and while their opponent is busy trying to wade through it and make sense of how it's even relevant to the thread, they declare victory and walk out. Sorry, but the Gish Gallop doesn't work on me. Say something of substance or quit quoting me so I'm not notified of your non-sequiturs.

    There a few myths regarding violence in Australia. Firstly, the gun laws only effect law abiding citizens. The strict gun laws forced a lot of legal handgun owners out of gun ownership, especially hand guns, I was one of them. To keep a hand gun license for recreational shooting, you have to register, and compete in a minimum of six registered competitions per category of hand gun, per annum, there are four categories of hand gun here.
    Prior to these "wonderful" laws, I had been a competition hand gunner for 37 years, never an issue, never a safety issue. I was brought up around guns, our safety standards go a hell of a lot deeper, are more strict, than legal requirements.

    The effect of the strict gun laws has essentially been two fold. Firstly, responsible shooters were pushed out of the sport in the way I explained, our sport was one of the safest sports in the country. Statistics showed that a golfer was more likely to die by being struck by lightening, than a shooter in a shooting accident. Secondly, the laws created a demand for illegal hand guns, which has been filled by organised crime smuggling new hand guns into the country, mostly glocks. Now anyone can get a new glock, no need for licensing, nothing. One example. I know a bloke who was planning a trip to Cape York, very wild country, crocodiles etc. He had never associated with criminals, he is a quiet bloke. He put the word out, and within three weeks, he had a new 9mm glock. What does that tell you?

    Prohibition never works, particularly with Australians. If you tell an Aussie that he can`t have something, he`ll just tell you to kiss his arse, and go and get it just to spite you. PC eunuchs excepted.

    BTW, Australia does have a violence problem, a lot of people who come here are shocked by the reality, especially Americans who have been told different..

    Latin for rise above.

    As far as we know, there is no racial motive involved here. This was a crime of opportunity...the Australian was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and had the person who jogged by their house been black, white, brown or yellow, they would still have been a target of opportunity. Until I see evidence the victim was targeted specifically because of his race, I do not believe this crime to be racially motivated....

    Let's say it was a racially motivated crime...well we can all agree this is the wrong approach to improve relations between differing cultures.

    A punk is a punk....and these suspects are punks, if indeed they are guilty of this crime...I don't see any need to single out their ethnicity to prove a point. Only a coward shoots an unarmed man in the back for no reason...they're punks pretending to be badasses....this applies to any coward who kills so senselessly regardles of ethnicity. Let them try this stunt an an armed person who knows they're coming and can defend themselves...they won't...because a punk is a punk.

    Australia statistically has less gun crimes than America because they ban guns from their citizens, so the Australian with this false sense of security comes to America with wrong expectations.

    So, of course, you can admit that your statement was incorrect, yes?

    Only criminals have guns in the U.S.? Wow, I guess that means George Zimmerman was a criminal.
