    Have to imagine the fact that he can’t stop assaulting his spouse(s) hasn’t helped his job prospects either.

    His claim is interesting. Witness was not his girlfriend but was his coached girlfriends sister.

    Another article I read was that the lawsuit is based on Trayvon's family, Trayvon's family attorney, and the prosecution putting a fake girlfriend on the stand. According to the lawsuit, the girl he was actually talking to on the phone at the time refused to testify so they substituted another girl in her place. If accurate, seems to be grounds for a lawsuit to me.

    Seems like grounds to disbar the attorney and perhaps criminal charges for the family. I hadn't heard any of that.

    Oh, Larry Klayman? Shit, this will be dismissed in short order, then. I imagine if this had any merit a lawyer with some amount of credibility would take it.

    I hope this is a made up story. There is no way the prosecution puts a fake witness on the stand on a trial that was watched by millions. They can't be this stupid.

    This guy was arrested and jailed. Droski says he's a criminal.

    i think he should have been convicted of manslaughter and probably would have been if they didn't go for first degree.

    here's what i said about it.

    But neither of that happened. So... not a criminal. Still arrested and jailed.

    more semantics?

    You do know that semantics is what words mean, right? I get that is a semantic question.

    How about this, instead, as my argument:

    Pine tree! Apple frog. Pig tail, pork rinds!

    Clearly, without semantics, you'll know exactly what I just said.

    you are arguing that because he's legally not considered a criminal, he's not a criminal. i don't agree.

    Ok, then give me your argument that concludes that people who haven't been convinced of a crime are criminals. Keep in mind, this argument you supply, can and will be used against you in another thread, to call someone else who hasn't been convicted of a crime... a criminal.

    Great, I love definitions:

    Are you a criminal, based on this, droski? You've stated you've been pulled over before, a lot in your youth, I recall. And based on definitions.... well, a traffic ticket "may be" prosecuted by the state, and is absolutely punishable by law.


    So, droski... are you a criminal? Because, definitions?

    no i haven't committed a crime.

    You've never been pulled over for a traffic violation? You've said so yourself that you have, let's combine our definitions:

    crim·i·nal
    /ˈkrim(ə)n(ə)l/
    Learn to pronounce
    noun

    a person who has committed a[n action or omission that constitutes an offense that may be prosecuted by the state and is punishable by law].

    Isn't.. droski isn't a traffic violation an action that constitutes and offense etc etc?

    i've been pulled over for speeding once. that was not a criminal act nor is it punishable by law or prosecutable.
