In reply to the discussion: Witness responds to suggestion that Trayvon lied before getting shot: ‘That’s real retarded, sir’ [View all]RVN VET
(492 posts)Her friend was murdered and she's being treated like an ignorant fool by the lawyer. She's testifying to the best of her ability and the butthead lawyer asks her a question which is absolutely stupid and ridiculous. She says the question is absolutely stupid and ridiculous. She didn't say "hey, intellectually challenged people should be scorned." She said "you just asked a dumb ass question." Look, this kid had to admit in court -- among other humiliating things butthead dragged out of her -- that she couldn't read cursive writing. I give her kudos for restraining herself.
And I think what she said was poignant and on the mark: Trayvon would not have done something as stupid as you just described. And if he didn't do something as stupid as you just described, he must have been doing what he told me he was doing -- trying to get away from that little racist pig who murdered him.
Please, can we get back on track?
*look it up.
