mando got a reaction from LBC Punk in Do you ever buy records just to flip?
Maybe its just me but buying something new with the intention to sell as new literally minutes after it gets to your doorsrep rubs me the wrong way. Whats worse is those that list records on ebay before they even have it on hand which is becoming more and more common. In the end I am just as guilty of buying from some of these guys so aside from giving me bad vibes, what do I really have against it?

mando got a reaction from cbbrew22 in MAN ADVICE
Was in a similar situation. Girl got pissed that I didnt go to her wedding when essentially she chose this guy over me. Continued to hang out and be friends for awhile until she had the nerve to tell me that I was the love of her life and asking if I would be there if her marriage didnt work out. Ended up saying goodbye in not so nice words and havent seen/talked to her in over a year. Despite my feelings for her, Im not gonna wait around as someones plan B. Was pretty fucked up she even took the conversation there if you ask me.

mando got a reaction from mrc in Zimmerman Not Guilty.
I think some of you aren't really seeing the case for what it was in a legal standpoint. He was being tried for 2nd degree murder and only 2nd degree, it wasnt until the last couple days that the prosecution tried to throw manslaughter charges in there (way too late to put the defense on their heels) when they realized there was no chance at a murder 2 conviction.
As shitty of a law as stand your ground is...it had little to do with this case in court because of the murder 2 charge despite it being the centerpoint of the media, on the other hand if they would of been smart and charged him with manslaughter from day 1, we would probably be looking at a different outcome.
Basically, 2nd degree charge put all the pressure on the prosecution to prove that zimmerman got out of his car that night with an intent to kill the kid before any sort of confrontation happened...on the other hand manslaughter would of put all the pressure on the defense with the evidence against zimmerman as being the instigator by stalking, confronting the kid, etc.

mando got a reaction from mrc in Zimmerman Not Guilty.
Let me add..when the prosecution says something like "well maybe trayvon was on top but was in the process of stepping backwards when he was shot"...during a demonstration to prove that zimmerman was on top, you kinda lose reasonable doubt, probably lost the jury at that point as well, and definitely suck at your job as a prosecutor
And I dont blame the jury for the outcome, anyone who watched any of the trial knows it was pretty much a clusterfuck from a prosecution standpoint from day 1. As much as zimmerman deserves time in jail, the system allows him to pull shit like this and walk. Its not up to a jury in one case to change an entire system by undermining the way the system works just because zimmerman is an asshole. Changes have to be made from the top down not on s case by case basis. I actually like that the jury judged the case based on the trial alone, its very easy to let your emotions tell you to throw the book at someone despite what and how things are working within the realm of the court of law. The prosecution failed, the system failed..not the jury
