Anger + Sadness = RAGE

Assault is against the law and Assault can happen without physical contact.

All one has to do is feel that their personal safety is threatened.

Besides, when was the last time you heard of someone attempting to make a citizens arrest of a person where you did not witness that person commit a crime? What is the legal basis for that?


As for the running, the boy was 17-- he may have looked like a man, but at 17 you're not the most mature person and not everyone makes the best decisions even as adults! Martin was 17 when he was killed.

you can join the military at the age of 17.

and i wasnt stating zimmerman was making a citizen's arrest. im just showing you that he has the right to follow or persue people.

The boy had zimmerman on the ground beating his head into the side walk. Multiple cuts, a broken nose, all backed up by the doctors reports.

Stand your ground law works in exactly cases like this, His back was to the ground This is self defense 101.

I joined the military at 17-- with my Mother's signed consent.

At 17, you're still a boy-- even a big boy, but still a boy.

No one has the right to harrass or assault-- and if a person is harrassed or assaulted, then the "Stand Your Ground" law would protect you. It is very possible that had Martin survived and zim had try to sue Martin for the injuries, then MARTIN would be the one protected by our "Stand Your Ground" law!

It may have ended with zim on the ground, but it doesn't mean that is how it started-- which is why Jeb Bush stated that the "Stand Your Ground" law that he signed is not applicable to zim's defense.

That's just it-- before the State stepped in, there weren't any charges!

JD your hung up on the stand your ground law. Seems to me it was self defense.

True the 17 year old was a kid but you can be tried as an adult at that age.

They both made some poor choices but the evidence I've heard thus far doesn't convict for me.

Jeb is like you and the rest of us, we don't how it started. That means he doesn't know if that law applies or not.
