Let the truth shine and justice prevail!

If Diaz only had a gun, he could have protected himself from the likes of Mr. Sailors!

They should execute this piece of trash. Finest example of human garbage i have ever seen.

Only a 10,000 dollar bond.? You can tell already that justice will not be served fairly in Gwinett County.

Go to bed John Henderson.. You are such an idiot!! Please put us out of your misery! I am hopeful you never serve jury duty. Or bètter yet, let me be chosen to serve when YOU are on trial!

Don I agree with you 100% he's human GARBAGE !!

I'll give just about anything to see Mr.Sailors Grandchildren, or anyone that supports this man's actions from Saturday night...to have the same scenario but they were the victim...let's just say Mr.Sailors was a lost old man in my neighborhood...and I shot him in plain darkness because I was protecting my home, you all would turn against me...but since this victim is a minority it has to be Self Defense he is a perfect human being with no error of making any mistake...could there be reasonable doubt?...this is America 2013 !!!

I just wonder how peoples will act when our irac iran afganny soldiers all get to this place in time. For the record...more troops are dying from suicide then in combat. Look it up you doubters. This just another example of what war can and will do to persons who participate. Instead of condeming this old vet ad trash..loon etc. Why dont we help them? This problem is going to increase over time. It already had started. Vets need serious debriefing and a lot of it. Maybe if the public hadnt labeled nam vets as baby killers and spat on them we wouldnt have this now? Who knows. Guns dont kill people. People do. Less than 4% of murders and killings are done with guns. 23% are committed with clubs and hammers. Govt facts. We need to take a hard look at putting our citizens in harms way period. Talk to a vet. God bless America.

Don and Linda; Do you know this man personally? Or well enough to label him as "trash" or "human garbage?". I will guess the answer is no. He deserves a little better treatment then that. I do not condone his actions...heck..given the circumstances as i understand them, I might have done same thing. Doesnt make it right and on same note doesnt make a combat vet a piece of trash either. Have some compassion..the death of any young person is sad as well as the codemnation of the innocent. Unless our latest leader in white house has changed the law...we are ALL innocent until proven guilty. Please take the time to talk to a vet. I think it...no i know it will help you begin to understand. Make God have mercy on mr Diazs soul and family.

The law presumes a person innocent until proven guilty. People who jump to conclusions without knowing all the facts are ignorant. Hold on to your hate and don't rush to judgment.

I had the pleasure to meet Rodrigo and he was a good kid with a great future ahead of him, but somehow he pulled in the wrong driveway and an old evil man trying to be a hero ended with his life, I still can't believe it, I hope that Mr. Evil gets convicted and dies in prison, who knows how many people the jury will be saving by sending this crazy man into prison forever.

I knew this wonderful young man, a very respectful, good and honest kid. I understand defending your family if someone walks into your house with a gun or some kind of weapon and you shoot. This kid was outside, driving away after he heard the first shot. Mr. Sailors accomplished his mission by shooting to the air, they got scared and left. No, but he had to shoot to the car. $10,000 bond???? A man got a bond of $15,000 after killing a puppy. Please read below

Bond granted in puppy killing

Rodrigo Diaz's life is worth more than a puppy's life. Dear Judge, please: we want justice for an innocent man.

Ignorants, please than is used only in comparisons, so if you're comparing something use than. If not, then you have to use then. What could be easier than that?

If they were looking for someone why didn’t they go to the door? Why were they running around the yard? Why I didn’t they just get in the car and leave? Where do you go ice skating at 11:00 at night? I suspect there is much more to this story.

The way I see it is:
Diaz = Hispanic, that his only fault.
Sailors "White"= Racist
Judges = Racist
Georgia full of RACISM today
Don't call me as a Jury.
Keep dreaming "Dr. King", Keep turning in your coffin "Cesar Chavez" (The Mexican American Californian activist for all the ones that do not know of him)
I really sadden that this things happen even today.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Mr. Sailors for over 10 years. He drives the bus for my high school and his wife taught me in kindergarten. I will not sit idly by and allow him to be profiled as racist, evil, or garbage; he is none of those. Mr. Sailors has participated in several mission trips to Latin American counties so racism claims should be completely disregarded. He is not evil as he is a devoted Christian who attends the same church as I on a weekly basis. He is also not garbage. I am appalled that some people jump to such strong and biased conclusions about people whom they do not even know. I never was able to meet Mr. Diaz like some of you, and he may very well have been a wonderful young man with great potential. However, I do not know him so I will not pass any judgement on him based on bigoted prejudice and bias as other commenters have done to a man who fought and suffered to protect their freedoms before they were even born. So I ask that unless you have something constructive to add to this story, please keep your libelous comments to yourselves.
