The Golden Rule of do unto others as you would want others to do unto you is an ESS – evolutionary stable system. – and is built into humans. It has a second part of retaliation for wrong done unto you. Three of the jurors in the Zimmerman trial paid attention to the lawyers and even took notes, but they discarded the concept of civilized law for the concept of retaliation for the death of a young person.

And we have our president, a former law teacher, do the same thing. Martin’s brutal beating of Zimmerman was OK to our president because our president felt that he and other black men are unfairly treated with suspicion. Isn’t that what the Boston bomber did. He avenged the unfair deaths of Muslims by destroying the lower leg of a beautiful dancer and killing and hurting others.

My goodness, we have a problem. Chief among them is the inability to bring rational argument to bear. If ever there was an open and shut case of self defense, it was the Zimmerman case. Much is made of Zimmerman’s wounds being minor, but the Central Park Jogger was in a coma for quite a while after her beating and rape.
Eric Holder seems to be unaware that the FBI was all over the Sanford police department looking for racism. What a schmuck!

And we had claims that Martin was screaming for help when he was on top of Zimmerman raining blows.
