  1. @birdbanter Let it play out.
  2. @birdbanter I said 'as if he were.' Different from me saying he thought he was a cop.
  3. @birdbanter He was playing neighborhood watchman. He put himself in a precarious situation.
  4. @birdbanter That's his side of the story, yes. One thing we both know is that he chased the kid as if he were a cop.
  5. @birdbanter That doesn't jive with the 911 call.
  6. @birdbanter The 911 call proves that they told him to back off and stop chasing.
  7. @birdbanter We'll agree to disagree. :)
  8. @birdbanter I have zero empathy for Zimmerman & I am one who tends to feel empathy for almost everyone.
  9. @birdbanter He never should've been in that situation to begin with, so he was putting himself in a bad scenario b/c he was playing cop.
  10. @dr_silverback Let's make it happen. Call me to discuss.
  11. @birdbanter Zimmerman? Yes, he deserved to get arrested. Martin? He didn't deserve to get killed by a guy playing cop.
  12. @birdbanter Zimmerman had no business being in that position to begin with. He was playing cop. Even 911 told him to go away.
  13. @daisycakes It's a beautiful experience, pairing a person with the ideal book. That makes me smile, as well.
  14. @daisycakes It's wonderful. I do that with novels, but a kid's book holds so much more nostalgic weight.
  15. @daisycakes OMG that's it! You're amazing. Ty! :)
  16. @Kath1213 Oh no! I hope you're ok. :(
  17. @daisycakes No, but this looks good.
  18. @daisycakes I think she was a goose. An older lady. Hilarity ensued. I read it every time I was at the pediatrician's office. Hmm...
  19. @daisycakes Picture book.
  20. @daisycakes Random: there was a kid's book when I was young with a goose whose house flooded. Does that ring a bell? I loved it!
