No, no. The fact that it was split by a zipper is obviously a symbol of her rejection of Bats and his ideals. So in other words she was making a statement both about her moral compass and her competence.

Vicars ARE hitmen.
Actually, we have a rule : the less likely you look like a hitman, the more you seem to look like a hitman. Looking like a hitman draws less attention.
Douglas Adams touched on that. I haven't read Dirk Gently in a while, but there was something about the kind of hat a detective wears.

Like how euphoric they are.

Now if she had made a pun about the ice age I bet she would have gotten off scotch freeze.

Pretty much everything on TV about this Zimmerman case. Dozens of talking heads yelling at and talking over each other, sometimes turning off each other's mikes so the other party can't respond, and each has an unshakable opinion that was clearly decided long before this trial began and thus is extremely uninformative. And for some reason my roommate just can't get enough of this thing, not only keeping the TV tuned to coverage of it but also talking on the phone about it pretty much constantly.

Damn rascist aliens! Just because the poor kid was coloured doesn't mean they had to shoot him other crude ballistic weaponry!

The problem in the Zimmerman case is that since there is no dispute whether he killed Trayvon Martin, it's all down to whether Martin attacked first or not. And while it seems public opinion tends toward "not", the evidence in court seems to be contradictory.

I don't see what the huge fuss is about, at this point. All the media attention and arguments about it seem just way too into it for a case of a single cop shooting (hypothetically in self defense) a single teenager who just so happened to be of a minority race.

It's carried on so long it's questionable why people bother fussing about it. Just, like, move on, man, and let the past be the past, dude. Gnarly.

Amen.

Yeah, especially since there are probably several similar cases per day across the country.

Ah, well, this is proof the whole thing has been news way too long if the details of when it first got big are too fuzzy for me to remember accurately.  :P

People have been saying they are gonna riot. The media has also waaaaayy overdone it. I really really hope those people saying they are gonna riot are trolls. I don't want L.A riots V2.0. That's mainly why everybody is so worked up about it. It's been portrayed as a race thing.
