quote: ORIGINAL: jlf1961 I have one question, why couldnt zimmerman have shot and disabled martin so that he was not a threat? I mean one round through a knee cap and he would be immobilized. This course of action would undoubtedly lead to a law suit by the "harmless" victim Peace and comfort, Michael

quote: ORIGINAL: tazzygirl You dont need to follow is not the same as.. follow if you want too. Thats pretty basic. For contrast, from a conversation with AMK (our 911 equivalent) here: Me: Would you like me to investigate? AMK: No. Keep your distance. I say again: do not approach. Much clearer in my opinion, particularly for aspies, ESLers, children, etc., etc., etc. IWYW, — Aswad.

We`re work`n that out right now buddy.......no thanks to his fans. Or those longing for a human sacrifice. The only proven racial profiling was when Martin referred to Zimmerman as a creepy ass cracker. Yes but DK has already explained that "creepy ass cracker" is just another way of saying his family has been in the state for a really long time. No racial jab there [8D]

quote: ORIGINAL: Owner59 Still,it begs the question,does the initiator/aggressor(George) get to claim victimhood after he gets his ass kicked, picking a fight with the wrong guy? No. 1) Nothing in evidence proves George to be the aggressor. 2) There is a statute that let's the aggressor use dearly force if he is unable to escape the attack on him. The Defense's claim covers George either way, and has to be disproven beyond a reasonable doubt.

No racial jab there This entire story is about race in America . . . the nature and experiences of the players, the burglaries in a racially changing neighborhood, the black on brown brown on black conflict, the incident itself, the lack of police action, the media lynching of Zimmerman, the testimony of Martin's friend, the trial with six white jurors sitting in judgment, and the root story of America. If you don't understand that you don't understand America. Given all that, I think Zimmer, fearing for his life, was justified in shooting Martin. I hope he gets free, although he will continue to fear for his life. However, not so much as he will being in prison. There he will be dead man walking until some gangsta slips it to him.

Noffke told the Sanford caller, George Zimmerman, not to follow "the suspicious" man. "We don't need you to do that," Noffke said in the recorded conversation. During his testimony June 24, Noffke added that he was trained to avoid giving callers direct orders to avoid liability. I would expect a child not to listen. I would expect a grown adult with watch training to actually... you know... listen to both his training and what the dispatcher tells him. Or are you saying Z is the kind of man that has to be told directly not to touch the eye of the stove because its red?

This notion, that you keep pushing, Owner, has no foundation in Common law or US law or common sense. Actually it does, part of the legal basis for self defense is that you were not the aggressor. For instance in Florida http://lawofselfdefense.com/statute/fl-776-041%E2%80%83use-of-force-by-aggressor-the-justification-described-in-the-preceding-sections-of-this-chapter-is-not-available-to-a-person-who/ Zimmerman has to argue that either his behavior doesn't rise to the legal standard of being the aggressor or that Martin was so violent that he falls under 2(a). Wrong. Zimmerman doesn't have to argue anything. He's innocent until proven guilty. It is the State which has to argue and, moreover, prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Zimmerman is guilty of the crime they charged him with.

FR Watching Jonathon Good's eyewitness testimony putting Martin straddling on top of Zimmerman in a 'ground and pound' position and Zimmerman calling for help. Gotta wonder why the prosecutor called this neighbor to the witness stand.

Gotta wonder why the prosecutor called this neighbor to the witness stand. No witness the State has called thus far has testified they saw who initiated the physical altercation. An IT witness the State called yesterday testified that the security cameras at the location were not working that night, so there's no video of it. Gotta wonder what other witnesses or evidence the State has to justify charging Zimmerman.

Hunting without the adjectives mean a totally different thing though many do kill the job during the interview. It's even more ridiculous reading all the made up theories other than the simple fact that TM was shot because he was beating Zimmys ass into the ground. As some one else stated, this is a show trial to pacify the race baiters and other segments of the general public.

When you call your boyfriend/girlfriend after you've "lost" the person chasing you and you tell them you're outside your home, do you double-back to see if that person is still chasing you or do go inside your home and call 911? Good luck to the State in proving Zimmerman intended to kill Martin.

A Neighborhood watch consists of 'watching' It doesn't consist of gunning someone down.

Good luck to the State in proving Zimmerman intended to kill Martin. I'm going to play Devil's Advocate with this one. Martin belongs(ed) to a culture that as a rule doesn't like to get the police involved. Not because he may have been up to something, as per se, but because of prior negative dealings with the law. A lot of innocent people get busted solely on the color of their skin, that's a simple fact. Another reason Martin didn't/wouldn't call 911 was because he was a 17 year old male. At 17, I was dumb as a box of rocks with too many hormones, and I think he saw this as a way to improve his street cred when he saw he was being tailed by a porky white guy with a shaved head. My guess is that Martin decided to teach the guy a lesson, and was doing so when Zimmerman shot him. My personal opinion, based on what I've seen and read on this matter is: two guys did some stupid things that night. One died as a result of it. I am also belabored by knowing that my information is purely second-hand, disseminated by outlets that may or may not have personal agendas they wish to press. There are only two people who truly witnessed this event, and only one can talk. The DA isn't prosecuting Zimmerman for what he did, he's doing it out of fear of what may happen if he doesn't. Whether it's losing the next election to being partly responsible for a riot. Politics, not justice, are in play here.

jlf1961 -> RE: Zimmerman Trial - LIVE (6/28/2013 8:55:48 AM)
After hearing all the arguments again, I mean come on, all this was done when the actual shooting took place, let's acquit Zimmerman of all crimes, dig up Martin, try him for being black in a mostly white neighborhood and acting suspicious in said neighborhood, find him guilty, sentence the his corpse to 20 years, move the clock back 50 years and declare open season on African Americans and any minority that resembles an African American after sundown. This will appease those that think following and shooting an unarmed black american youth, after putting him on the defensive by following him, happy. Of course if I am out for a walk after dark and notice someone following me, I am going to get a bit concerned, and probably confront the guy. If he gives me some bullshit that basically says he knows I was up to something illegal because of my skin color or some other bullshit, I would not attack him, but I would get his name and address so that when I called my lawyer he would be able to get the information needed to file a civil rights suit against the asshole. I am an old guy, and yes I can hold my own in a fight, and I would probably have a larger caliber pistol than zimmerman had, of course the pepper spray I carry to ward off the occasional wild critter would do nicely too. I mean the stuff I carry is formulated to get large bears to leave you the hell alone, so it would probably do a number on human eyes and skin. But then as one person pointed out, I am an ass sometimes.
