    That's where you are wrong. Trayvon was the aggressor. GZ had a right to be where he was. Trayvon returned and committed aggravated battery.

    Free speech...besides Trayvon has the State of Florida and the liberal media speaking for him. Not to mention to publicist the Martin family lawyer hired to spin this story in the media.

    I'm glad you admit Trayvon wasn't scared as Dee says.

    I think they were both afraid at different points

    think of it this way, one of your loved ones is out jogging, a suspicious car follows her, she turns around screams why are you following me and then turns around and goes the other way

    then she hears a car door slam and sees the man is now coming after her on foot

    see the problem Zimmerman caused, anyone would of been fearful in that circumstance and fight or flight would of took over

    You are absolutely correct and I find it amazing that these Zimmerman Lovers can't understand that concept. What person, especially, a kid wouldn't be fearful if someone started following them out of the blue that they don't know.

    Thats your opinion not a fact.

    Trayvon had a right to be where he was at, minding his own business.

    Again your opinion not a fact.

    So this is what makes you look "suspicious".

    Now I missed the part of he was looking into windows. When I was a kid we had cut throughs in the neighborhood so this is nothing new.

    LOL, now the kid went from running away to skipping away.

    Now did he just appear and punch him or did he punch him after he asked if he had a problem. Sounds like this wasn't a friendly exchange which means your senses are heightened, so how did he get sucker punched.

    You weigh 200lbs, but a kid 158lbs can hold you down. Now what is amazing you didn't say you fought back, punched, scratched, kicked, nothing. Just all of a sudden you realize he is going for you gun and you dug down deep and got the strength to get it first and fire a fatal shot.

    Unbelievable is all I can say, if I am a juror he has got alot of explaining to do to clear up this.

    Somehow Zimmerman got a whole bunch of bruises and cuts and Trayvon only got shot. Please explain what caused the injuries Zimmerman suffered? Self inflicted in order to fool the police into thinking it was self defense? Walked up to a stranger, shot the kid, then kicked his own a$$ without anyone seeing? People minding their own business don't start fights. Scarred little kids don't confront ANYONE. They run home as quickly as possible when threatened. Flight instinct you see. Since home was a minute or so running time or less from the initial contact, considering Trayvon's athletic build and age, how could he be shot in the chest at close quarters? He did NOT flee very far. He did NOT run home. He was certainly not scared. He did what people do when they try to ambush someone. He evaded then confronted then attacked. The rest is history.

    Sure I'm guessing, but its all guesswork from the all the real evidence we know. Its not all the phony spin coming from the other side. Here's the other side. Cute little Trayvon on the phone, sees mean guy in car following him, gets scared and starts running home. Sounds good right? But somehow in a freak miraculous display of amazing speed and quickness, the mean guy Zimmerman, gets out of his truck, chases down Trayvon, somehow starts a fist fight and loses badly, since Trayvon had no bruises or cuts to show he was punched, ect, then takes his gun out AFTER all of this, and decides to shoot. Sort of odd someone with a gun out to murder a black person, since he was deemed racist, would allow themselves to get punched on the ground. And this was AFTER he called police who were minutes away. Odd. How very odd someone would murder someone in a residential area after calling 911, with neighbors all around. Really psychotic behavior from someone who has no history of such behavior. Consequently, Trayvon does have a history of being not such a cute, responsible, well behaved kid. Lots of family problems, lots of school problems, a bag full of jewelry in a locker, some drugs too. Doesn't quite add up.

    He wasn't walking HOME, he was at his Dads girlfriends condo because he was suspended from school. None of this matters because as soon as they put that bus driver on the stand he "swung" on, he isnt getting found guilty of ANYTHING. We have the rights to get out of our vehicle in front of an African American child, that does not warrant an attack and someone telling you, you are going to die tonight. When someone says, you are going to die tonight, its not mansalughter. And when Trayvons history is brought in.......

    According to Zimmerman, Trayvon didn't RUN... He Skipped away.

    Yeah, which a pretty weird fing thing for a 17 year old to do. Where you view it as heart warming, I view it as something completly else.

    skiipping away. I don't recall him saying that but i see you reference it in your post. I really don't think he means skipping as in how little girls skip. In my head i see, martin, 'skipping' as in the foot work that a boxer might employ. Regardless. The left will always glom onto some word that they can
    call into question and run into the ground.
    I resent the remarks of some here that say that GZ supporters are racist. I think that our support for the guys shows our lack of racism. I can't say that with complete resolve about the TM supporters. All we hear from that quarter are white pervert, ignoramus, molester, God-loving stalker kills little black boy. AND Zimmerman is a democrat. I've supported democrats before when they've been mistreated by their own side and been kicked in the teeth for it....referring to Juan WIlliams here.

    My interest is more in justice without this media meddling and trying defendant in the court of public opinion. THAT is my only concern.

    Moreover. I thought we'd gotten past this bit of misdiretion on Zimmerman's weight. HE was not in the shape that TM was in. If you seen the interview though it might have answered these questions for you....but if you don't want to have those questions answered then i guess not.

    Zimmerman was exemplary.Yet last night on Lawrence O'Donnell at around 10:30
    they were back at it.Carefully parsing Zimmerman's ever word to try and take
    into some - Outer Limits - context in order to further their agenda.The agenda that
    Zimmerman WAS a Racist and Wasn't Apologizing and how dare he let Hannity
    ask such slanted questions.That's right.The abject Race hustlers at MSNBC have
    their narrative about this exclusive.That being with Hannity and Fox's audience,
    somehow in cahoots to allow very favorable and cushy questioning that help
    rehabilitate Zimmerman into less than the monster he was electrifyingly spun into
    via every negative connotation the sick puppies in the Lamstream could
    muster.

    I saw 2 other quotes from other news sources in which Zim used the term "skipping". So Zim is going to have to ask the jury how Trayvon went from skipping thru the neighborhood, to suddenly jumping him stating Zim was going to die. Thats a fairly large threshold for most to believe. We're also not going to be able to view Trayvon's account of the incident because, you know, he's dead. Zim gets to tell his side of the story without cross exam, and the victim in a grave. How fresh

    This has been my opinion from the beginning. Just a very messed up situation that had a terrible conclusion. Mr Zimmerman's biggest hurdle is the fact that he was told by the 911 operator to stand down and he refused to comply. That in itself could get you a free ride to pokey in most situations. Look at how these same people who believe that people who question the law and get tazed are at fault by their own actions but completely ignore this vital piece of the puzzle. If Mr Zimmerman would have stood down as he was ordered by law enforcement to do, this kid who was doing nothing criminal at the time of the altercation would still be alive. And yes if Mr Martin had not gone postal on his perceived stalker he would also be alive. So in either case whatever the outcome Martin down or Zimmerman down, there is much blame to go around on both parties actions.



    The most disturbing fact that came out of the interview was when asked if in hindsight if he would have done anything different, he said no. Maybe just maybe if he would have followed the orders of law enforcement, one person wouldn't be dead and another’s life wouldn't be in such turmoil. If he still can't see that, he's an idiot.


    If anybody wants to play the race card there is little that can come of it other than feed the fire.

    This NEVER happened, the non emergency operator said, WE DONT NEED YOU TO DO THAT, he was never told not to stand down, and the operator is not a cop.

    But it was not his neighborhood, he was not a resident, it was not his home.Observing someone looking into a home that was recently robbed and calling the police is what you are supposed to do, especially if you are in the neighborhood watch program, right?
