Public sidewalk. You want to head one direction. I'm entitled to go the same direction. I'm not entitled, perhaps to get in your face and yell at you - but there is no evidence that zimmerman did. Yet even if he had done so, its irrelevent. Martin is then not entitled to escalate to physical violence. And we have absolutely no evidence that Martin escalated to physical violence. It is also Martins entitlement to say what the fuck are you doing? Clearly, anyone who has actually been in a fight before knows that it is murder since it wasn't a contact shot, if it happened as Zimmerman claims, so it cant be as Zimmerman claims.

The gun was in contact with Trayvon's sweatshirt, 2-4" from the skin, consistent with Trayvon being on top of George at the moment shot was fired, per Dr. Di Maio in court.

George explained that extensively to police, and two employees of the Sanford Police testified that his call to NEN was reasonable. George also mentioned Trayvon 'looked like he was on drugs or something', and the State's own medical examiner said in proffered testimony that Trayvon was likely impaired.

White, brown, yellow or green, I don't care what color you are. What is disgusting is that you don't think a polite explanation is called for. Been in that situation at least 3 times and I always got a polite explanation.

Why is this such a big deal? Two guys got into it , one had a gun, now one is dead. That happens, don't see what is so unusual about all this. Oh Tazzygirl, yes you can say "fuck-off asshole" all day, but this world is full of many different people with many different problems. Ever hear about the straw that broke the camels back? Do you want to be that straw to someone's mental state, just 'cause you can ? and i'm sure you feel so superior when you talk like that.

You are anyway so you don't need a practical reason.

Powergamz1 -> RE: Zimmerman III - Should the jury have a manslaughter option (7/10/2013 2:47:00 PM)
The physical factors leading to the call were described to the dispatcher that night, race was not one of them, and they were supported by the tox screen results. And yes, you quite certainly attached the stigma of a racist to Zimmerman, and Zimmerman alone, in contradiction to all available facts. What you haven't done is back it up with anything rational. quote: ORIGINAL: Marc2b quote: What I want is a straightforward answer to the question.

http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/07/10/19395261-defense-rests-in-zimmerman-trial-zimmerman-doesnt-take-the-stand?lite quote: Zimmerman told the judge on Wednesday he did not want to testify on his own behalf before the defense rested. The defense rested after briefly hearing testimony from Robert Zimmerman, George Zimmerman’s father, and Olivia Bertalan, a resident at the Retreat at Twin Lakes gated community So.. the defense will have their closing in which the animated re-enactment will be shown to the jury, but evidence of Martin's fighting experience will not. (unless they rush through a motion). The prosecution will also get a chance to summarize their case. And then it goes into the blender of the American jury system.

Clearly, your horseshit notwithstanding, your imbecilic cants leave much to reconcile with reality. The shot occurred at shortrange, but not contact. Waltz me thru how that happens given Zimmermans affadavit to the cops. How could it be at that angle upward and at least 3-4" off the body? He was in no trouble whatsoever if that gun was not punched into the body. He certainly was not overpowered or struggling in any way. Here, I will lay on you with you on your back, start punching you, you reach behind you in your waistband and pull a gun out, (one handed is your only option) swing it out with your arm relaxed and your triceps to elbow flat on the ground so that you can have three inches and brush it on my shirt, while I am smashing your head like a pumpkin repeatedly (with minor injuries) or raining blows on you, and me not fucking noticing and struggling for that gun with both my hands. ASSWIPE!!!!!! BULLSHIT!!!! LIES!!! PURE FUCKING HALLUCINATION!!!!!

So.. the defense will have their closing in which the animated re-enactment will be shown to the jury, but evidence of Martin's fighting experience will not. (unless they rush through a motion). My understanding from all media is the reinactment (the cartoon shit) which is simply frivolous asswipe is not going to be allowed.

Certainly there is evidence that Martin escalated to violence. What evidence, other than Zimmerman's heavily biased claim? There is actually more and better evidence that it was Zimmerman that escalated to violence. Of course the Zimmerman crowd don't want to accept that evidence because it puts poor Georgie in a deservedly bad light. conclusive evidence - no. But thats not the legal standard here. Reasonable doubt goes to the defendent - zimmerman. The only "reasonable" doubt is in Zimmerman's version...actually multiple versions...of what happened. After he "adjusted" his story a number of times he actually got it to line up, somewhat, with the evidence, but he was all over the map before that.

So if Zimmerman had given Martin a polite response to the question of, "Why are you following me?" things would most likely have turned out without Z committing murder.
