As, in your mind (along with many others) the 911 recording does not constitute evidence vs. the shooter's 'evidence'?

Such cold, hard, scientific evidence says that a grown-up who has a long history of propensity towards confrontation? a history of seeking out confrontation, and succeeding in that endeavor on numerous previous occasions in beating up his fiance at least three times, attacking his roommate, resisting arrest and assaulting police? harassing neighbors to point of garnering numerous complaints (within that same neighborhood), chasing down people in is vehicle, and having police called on him for that on several occasions etc...?

Shall we go on, here?

Cold, hard, clinical evidence, that is.

"I'm not a doctor, and I don't even play one on TV, ..."

But Zimmerman's minor scratches had nothing on what I witnessed at least four times per year in public school, before I even got out of Jr. HS.

Anyone can have "fear for their life" if they are big enough a chickenshit, which Zimmerman indisputably is. And always has been.

I could have 'legally' killed at least 15 people, before age 17, by this wimpy-ass criteria, for myself alone, probably 25 more if using same excuse for murder in protecting others from assholes like this.

But in any case, to protect Zimmwit from either myself or others in the neighborhood, I just didn't go that route. But if you want to defend this chickenshit MF, go right ahead.

Read his history.

Do you think a 9mm short will penetrate a human skull at 15 or 20 feet? Are you willing to bet your life on that?


Three problems with the post 

1 you don't aim at the head but a central body mass so your question is irrelevant

2 according to this site his gun only comes in 9mm Lugar

and since this is the manufacturers site your Question is irrelevant

3  I just told you I would be carrying  a .45  so your question is irrelevant

Here's the news, folks:

Zimmerman was NOT LE, clearly had no connection with LE, other than assaulting them and making incessant calls to them, and had presented no appearance on the day in question as anything other than just another a skinhead thug in a loose red sweatshirt.


If Zimmerman made any attempt to subdue another person, outside of previously stated legal bounds, with out any legal authority whatsoever, then he was guilty of either attempted kidnapping or a host of other things, before we even get to Martin's defense against such assault.

Which such assault would justify any response on Martin's part per SYG laws in Florida.

Taz darling, trust me here-that wasn't aimed at you. I don't always agree with you, but you show a willingness to be open, to alter your positions as more is revealed. And I respect,and appreciate that.Why else have a discussion if that's not the case?
But there are lots of folk on here who aren't, who are still throwing lies out, who are sticking with a predetermined outcome despite the evidence and the verdict.
Those folk, they be scary people.They have the sort of mindset that creates totalitarianism.

Is this the same weapons expert that told us all about '.20' caliber Saturday Night Specials?

At some point, repeatedly pointing out the same facts starts to blur the line between debunking and enabling.

As most will tell you, I can be an argumentative bitch... however, I do try to look at all sides of an issue,.. despite someone claiming I work for the KKK.

There are very few that I havent argued with on the boards (I think, to date, Lucy may be the only one... lol.. there might be a few others), but I am very careful with the medical positions I do take. That Doctor, I would have argued with. His understanding of what happens in the field may be out of date... he may not have read the reports... hell, I dont know what he did read at this point.

I just have so many questions about this whole scenario. I would love for someone to prove to me that Zimmerman is the innocent man he claims to be, but I cant get beyond these issues to see that and no one has shown me any proof that my opinions, based upon medical knowledge, is wrong. I have no disputed the gun shot, or how T didnt bleed out on Z, because that is completely possible.

Let me show you, in detail, my problem with those photos.



Here are the photos from the crime scene. He shows blood on his face and the back of his head. Head wounds bleed terribly, a small cut can produce massive amounts of bleeding. I am not disputing his injuries to the back of his head. Those beneath his nose... give me pause. Why? Where is a mention of a CSF test? His injuries to his nose would definitely be severe enough to warrant a cerebral spinal fluid test (CFS). CFS speads faster than blood, and its a quick indicator that the bones had pierced into his brain. (yes, that can happen). A sheet or a piece of gause beneath the nose, gather the fluids, if a clearer ring expands beyond the blood flow, its a major problem requiring medical attention beyond an EMS squad.

At this point, I would wonder upon reading that report that the EMS squad was either derelict in their training or they didnt feel a need for that test. So, lets move past that for now.

Here is the photos from Z in the police station... that same night.. for the other fella who believes people are discussing the next day....



The back of the head is still bleeding, as might be expected from puncture wounds. So, I would say yes, they are more than scratches.

But, the nose... the swelling is reduced dramatically, there is no blood beneath the nose, no drippings, just a slight smear at the left hand corner (his right). All blood was cleaned up at the scene... so why is the back of his head still bleeding but his broken nose isnt? The swelling reduction cannot be explained by a simple resest of his nose. Swelling doesnt go down in a matter of a few hours. Ask any plastic surgeon, the swelling takes days.

This is but one of the questions... from a medical standpoint, its one that jumps out at me. I cant explain how he can go from one photo to another with such a reduction in swelling.

The report would have indicated any interventions taken to reset the nose.

Hey, I dunno what to tell you, other than that a jury of his peers didn't find it sufficient to convict.

I strongly suspect though, that if it were that critical, the prosecution would have spent days hammering away at it. They certainly wouldn't have skated rather quickly through it.

Eyewitness testimony is the most unreliable testimony there is.
Surprisingly,this includes the victim.

Especially in murder cases. I don't disagree there.

OK, that WAS a joke, right?

Especially in murder cases, no doubt. I think I still have some candles around for that, glad that your insistence in this regard justifies my having kept them around.

Read his history.

And how exactly does any of this diatribe extinguish reasonable doubt?
Hell, how does it question the validity of the physical evidence?

And do you really wanna open the history door considering M's? That knife cuts both ways here...

How does it address my earlier comment re:
And if there's no doubt who committed the assault, how come Z is eating dinner as a free man tonight?
How come, despite a prosecution that withheld evidence, has big shot dem lawyers like Dershowitz calling for their disbarment, massive political pressure from state and local officials, an FBI investigation, and an openly hostile judge,six independent American citizens found Z not guilty?

and why get all "chickenshit MF?"
No ones using that sort of language at you.Why toss it out?
In logic, and debate, that's whats called an appeal to emotion, and it's used when one has nothing else. It's kinda a logical Hail Mary

Those folk, they be scary people.They have the sort of mindset that creates totalitarianism.
