You forgot to factor in the smashing GZ's head on concrete part.

To: I see my hands

If Zimmerman’s head had been “smashed” into concrete, there would have been severe damage, most likely scull fracture and concussion. I saw two small cuts, no stitches, no hospitalization. The head, along with the nose, lips, ear lobes, bleed easily and you may see a extreme amount of blood caused by a small cut or abrasion. Untill I see medical records charting severe head trauma and a broken nose, I will continue to question Zimmermans’s story. I feel you see a hero and I fear this is a result of a wanna be cop.

I will say up front I have not delved into the whole Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman matter. I have read some threads here about it, and heard different snippets about it on local and natl television.

I have read a lot of threads where folks have equated Mr. Zimmerman to being a hero and feeling this is pivotal to gun carry and stand your ground.

I did hear the 911 tape where Mr. Zimmerman was told to NOT pursue Mr. Martin. Yet he continued to pursue him. Now, if that's one of the 911 tapes that was edited, then forgive me for commenting in an area where I haven't done enough due diligence. But from the point where I heard that, I have been bothered by those treating Mr. Zimmerman as a hero. The situation was escalated when he chose to pursue Mr. Martin.

I don't know that anyone here has taken a moment and put themselves into Mr. Martin's shoes. Isn't it possible that he thought his life was in danger? Isn't it possible he was “standing his ground” and trying to protect his life? The same thing that Mr. Zimmerman has been applauded for?

I'm not saying that's what happened. I wasn't there. But I do wonder about it.
