Yes, many people are believing the man and what he said, not to mention the known witness statements, and are believing what he said was the truth. That makes sense as the facts that are known support his innocence.

On the flip side, you and others are posting speculation that paint him in a bad light, one way or another, and that pure speculation is not backed up by any known facts. That is uncalled for, IMO. Emotions get the better of some people and this case has been thrust upon Americans in a purely emotional manner by very familiar people. The reasons behind this push vary, but the story is told in different ways by different people for different reasons, none of them good, IMO.

Your posts have no basis in fact outside of pure speculation, and I’m posting in response to point that out. More facts may come out later that put Mr. Zimmerman in a bad light and could possibly cost him his freedom, and if he deserves it, so be it. My point is, at this time, from what we know, he deserves the benefit of the doubt and not wild speculation based upon emotions that have no basis in fact.

I’m not posting speculation as much as I’m trying to remind you that there are NO witnesses for the time frame between Zimmerman exiting the vehicle and the witness seeing Martin punching him. Zimmerman is the only person relaying information in between those two events, Martin is dead. If I’m Martin’s parents, damn right I want a more thorough investigation. Martin was innocent and minding his own business and Zimmerman threw out baseless accusations and tried to pursue, now the kid is dead. One last time, not saying that the facts aren’t as described, simply that no one (cops, you or I) knows other then Zimmerman.
