    And, the state has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Zimmerman murdered or unlawfully killed Martin. That is a high standard. Add to that the witnesses, the SYG law, and the physical evidence and it is really no wonder that Zimmerman has not been charged yet.

    Zimmerman is a fat sissy at very least. Let's say he was tracking this kid whom he outweighed by 100lbs and ended up on the ground screaming like a little girl for help when the kid started whipping his butt, then killed the kid. If that is the case, he doesn't appear guilty of murder. Perhaps manslaughter or a lesser charge for using deadly force unnecessarily. Maybe Travon felt threatened and was acting in the spirit of the old "stand your ground statute. I hope if Zimmerman skates, (5yrs or less in prison) he won't be chasing down any more black kids. If he's smart, he'll try to dissappear into the background and quit sticking his nose into everybodys bussiness....

    That said, we sure don't need busybody dickheads running around with 9mm pistols playing Dirty Harry as part of a neighborhood watch program. The implications of this incident certainly need to be addressed down there in redneck heaven.

    Cheers

    that doesn't even make sense.

    Does the black guy have the gun drawn? Zimmerman didn't.

    Did the white kid refuse to answer as to whether or not he lived there?

    Does everyone include you?

    You didn't say anything about any actions before the shot was fired. Your eyewitnesses have nothing to say about it.

    Actually the neighborhood is 49% white.


    I'm confused by your name/pic, unless it's ironic and meant to invoke the old white=nazis theme.

    I don't think Zimmerman set out to shoot the kid, but he's dead anyway. It was senseless. More so than hoodies, the culture war that pits all of us against each other has accomplished a society that fears each other, that self-segregates, and has a lack of empathy for those outside our own world view.

    For those that say Zimmerman shouldn't have gotten out of the car, others can say that the No Trespassing signs should have been respected. For those that say it was just a kid walking at night, there will be those that say that people have a right to investigate and protect their homes.

    Everyone's right, everyone's wrong...two lives are ruined and a country is divided.

    What do we do now? Continue the hate or figure out a place of common respect to pick up the pieces?

    I don't believe that tanks had any political affiliation.

    There isn't.

    But if I was in a neighborhood I'm not from and a local obviously thought I was suspicious, I'd do what I could to prove I wasn't.

    Like answer.

    Once again, poor judgement on Trayvon's part.

    I say quit the race hate mongering the press and the special interests have started and let the investigation begin. No one here really knows everything that happened except for the tragic outcome.

    Is it prudent to expect that in a Gated Community it isn't
    the same as down on 42nd street in New York city.
    That you may expect neighbors pay attention to who comes and
    goes.That a new person to the Community best not be on his
    worst behavior.Not that Martin was.But then we don't know that.
    The 9/11 call indicated weird behavior and acting like on drugs.
    Wandering around and staring at Homes.
    What in Sam Hill is so difficult to undestand about that.
    UNLESS .It did happen.Zimmerman was correct all along.
    Then the left and Liberals and the Lamestream really have an uphill
    battle to defend the indefensible.That Little Trayvon Wasn't merely
    walking home.You mean a kid has to be armed to be out looking for
    trouble.
    Ever heard of The Little Rascals.Al Sharpton isn't armed and he's constantly out looking for trouble.The verbal,accusing type.

    It didn't fit the template. The facts are starting to leak out and the media will not look good.

    Let me start my post mt stating that at no time have I ever concluded that George Zimmerman is guilty. Anyone who states otherwise is lying.

    The posts I've quoted demonstrate the obvious lack of care and/or concern for the a 17 y/o teen who was killed by George Zimmerman. A very real tragedy

    IMHO,many of the comments are appalling

    The highlighted text is not proven fact yet.

    So a 180lb teenager could give you a beat down.

    Yep if that is what it would take for them to save their life from a stranger chasing them. You want answer the question on what you have taught your kids to do, because it will expose you for what you are.

    So now a bloody nose is equal to a broken nose. I believe a bloody nose is what has been reported.

    The media hype of this case is a bit stupid.

    But Zimmerman is guilty regardless if martin attacked him or not.
    Zimmerman was told not to follow him, he did unless he blind he should have been seen that he was just carrying Candy and a Drink which too me does not scream a mugger or someone who is going to break into a house.


    Martin at the point Zimmerman confronted him was probably scared for his own life because a large armed man has approached him.

    Zimmerman used unneeded force to take down a 17 year old boy even if he was 6'3 and 150 pounds do you really think that Zimmerman who could have just as easily used the fun a bludgeon needed to shoot a 17 year old boy half his size?

    Given the race whoring by some black leaders stirring the pot and the news reporting opinion as fact, I don't know.

    A certain segment of the population have already convicted Zimmerman and if he is found innocent, will not accept it. I don't know what to do about that.
