he was charged with assaulting the cops, it was dropped because the cops failed to show identificaton. Had they shown it there would have been no confrontation.
This was not a response to what you are talking about-- I am talking about the Martin case and you are talking zim's police record. zim also had a domestic violence report filed against him, but it was dropped too.

I don't think zim looked at Martin and had the intent to kill, but it is a strong possibility that it was his prejudice that started the confrontation.

Also, zim didn't live in the neighborhood where he killed Martin, making his death all the more non-sensical.

At the end of the day, I am glad it's looking like it is going to trial.

Look you find a way to proove zimmerman had intent to kill the kid, (which i dont see none) and proove that he had the gun out before the confrentation accord(which will be hard to proove) i will swap to the side of the kid.

However what i see. is a man trying to protect his neighborhood that has been broken into 9 times over the last year.

Its a tragic loss of life. I at this point dont see how zimmerman had pre-meditated this before hand. Him calling 911 was proof of that and the 911 call of him screaming again shows me that he was infact defending himself,


Just because a boy is 17 doesnt make them innocent. sorry.
I am not saying any of what you are saying, but WHY would you not give the kid the benefit of the doubt? He is the victim, the boy who died getting his brother a pack of candy from the store?


This is akin to heaing about a rape and saying, well the girl probably deserved it.


As far as distances, remember-- Martin didn't live in Sanford. He is from Miami and he was up here visiting his father.

Re: Anger + Sadness = RAGE

This is not good conversation for you Jermyn. Been reading all of this from the beginning, and while you have arguable points, your emotional bias is really starting to bleed through.

who said the boy is the victim? I have down loaded the 911 mp3 where zimmerman is screaming for help. You can hear it through the walls of the people making the 911 call.

what i see is zimmerman approached the kid on the grounds of what are you doing here. according to his girl friend zimmerman asked that question twice to trayvon.
then the next thing we hear is zimmerman's scream on a audio

Then we have 2 witness's and we have the doctors report.

In our court system a man is innocent till proven guilty. Im not gonna give the boy the benifit of the doubt, cause of the wounds on mr zimmerman. If there was no wounds on zimmerman then i definatly would give martin benifit. But when the man has been verified by doctors to have a cuts on his head and a broken nose.

I mean what more do you want to call it?

We had a hoodie awarness day close to where i live over this. and thats great. people in hoodies isnt thugs. However this boy in my personal view attacked the man when confronted. Zimmerman yelled for help 1 minute later the boy was dead.

the only thing the prosecution can do to persuade my mind in this case is trying to proove that zimmerman had his gun out waving it in martins face. other than that the fact of buying ice tea and skittles has little effect to the case.

yes He does, his house or town home what ever you want to call it is in that gated community. where do you get your info?

Not particularly. I would have been fine if the police investigation would have concluded self defense. I am not an Al Sharpton groupie nor live with a victim mentality so I don't automatically think every time a non black man kills a black man that it is a racial hate crime.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Re: Anger + Sadness = RAGE

you also dont hear about the 2 black men that killed the white guy with a hammer about 6 miles from where trayvon was shot. Didnt even rob the guy they just killed him. (there not even going to charge them with a hate crime.)

but yes one man pointed out the fact that in the month of march when trayvon was shot there was 43 fatalities in chicago that was black on black, one was a 6 year old kid caught up in a shooting, yet there is no out-rage over this..

This is because it wasnt promoted by the racial leaders of jesse jackson and al sharpe. But it does go to show you how much the media is biased. Look at Nbc.

they even messed up the 911 audio tapes to make zimmerman sound racist. n the end the media doesnt care about lives it cares about ratings.

Well I have several hoodies and live about 30 minutes from where he was killed.

I think I am doing a good job in not being over the top, with anything I've typed.

I am sure you have read that I have admitted my personal bias, due to the nature and location of this tragedy.

Neither do I.

So you are telling me now that even with all of the questions surrounding exactly what happened that night, you would be completely fine without there even being an investigation to begin with?
