    NBC editing the 911 call about Zimmerman

    So what do we think of NBC editing the 911 call trying to cast a racist slant to it? Along with the few who basically used the edited version to make it look as racist as possible?

    BTT? Do you think that is something Jesus would do?

    Jesus would have put himself between Zimmerman and the angry mob.

    And NBC won't even release the name of the person fired... We were supposed to trust them to provide the REAL facts, no we are supposed to trust them they actually fired someone. And they still haven't made an apology on the Today show.

    Why are you suprised Res?
    This was an expected result for those of us who didn't follow the lynchmob.

    If the video had simply been edited for time, this would not be a deal. As it is, it was wrong for them to air it as they did. It alters the objectivity of the story. It's almost as bad as depicting violent protesters in wisconsin with palm trees in the background.

    I didn't know they were holding Zimmerman protest in WI.

    SO BTT????

    What is your opinion about the edited 911 call? I still want to hear the racial slurs people were talking about.

    The editing was unconscionable. There's no doubt about that.

    What gets lost in the shuffle is that the editing is irrelevant to the matter at hand.

    The editing is very relevant. It put a racist slant on the situation from the start. People used that edited clip to make Zimmerman look like a racist. I don't know exactly how that all went down and still don't believe the young adult should have been shot. If I was Zimmerman I would work on owning NBC.

    It's irrelevant as far as Zimmerman's guilt or innocence goes. The people who are actually doing the investigation are not phased by this. They weren't looking to NBC to hear the 911 call.

    What ever effect editing had on regular people - like you, me, or Al Sharpton - that's irrelevant.

    If Zimmerman is found hanging from a tree with a note stapled to his chest that states.... you are a racist.... it is very relevant. That is why I was saying it should go to trial and have a jury decide. They would be presented with the full facts not edited facts.

    When people can't handle you, there is a propensity to try and discredit you.

    Do you really think he's going to be found after almost 2 months of hiding by those in power ?

    Who do you think is hiding him the Lil Rascals ? After all is said and done that information might never be known to the public, where he was hiding and by whom.

    Res you know if he was in a safe jail awaiting some sort of trial there would be NO DRAMA like this. Are people this insensitive to the freedom of a 28 yr old guy playing robocop still in private hiding who murdered some kid.

    Racist attitudes are ridiculous on this board covering this case. If he did nothing wrong he should be safe in sanford jail awaiting a trial or investigation, what gall they have to kept him free .

    Your assuming that no one in the area that could try him was swayed by this...

    Do you ever read your cut n pastes?
    I can't believe that statement.
    How about the rest of us who have done nothing wrong?
    Should we be in jail also?
