More like “F-word POS” ~ bringing things up to date. However, my local informants tell me the “Coon” expression is commonly used by Hispanics in this area.
The only thing worse than the misery pimps who are using this for political purposes is the spectacle of those who, in attempting to oppose the misery pimps, end up claiming that Zimmerman did nothing at all wrong and invent secondary and tertiary hypotheses to explain away his lack of common sense, restraint, and ignoring both police and Neighborhood Watch guidelines, all of which resulted in the death of someone the police say had been doing nothing wrong.
Martin had no reason to believe this guy was going to go away.
Remember, Zimmerman never once told Martin why he was there ~
Cold rain, dark of night, strange Hispanic man following him closely in a pickup truck ~ ............. I think Martin had every reason to be fearful.
A reasonable man would think he was being set up for a robbery.
Anyone find Martin's cellphone yet? Last time anyone had anything about the cellphone is that the police property report for Martin did not report a cellphone. It did report the Skittles!
One stranger following another, could be "starting trouble".
Other important questions would be...
Was Zimmerman's vehicle marked in any way, lights, door sticker etc... .
Was Zimmerman wearing any kind of jacket that said 'security' or 'neighborhood watch' etc. Since Zimmerman was clearly dedicated to the cause I'd be surprised if he didn't 'look' the part when 'on duty'.
Martin’s father has since changed his mind. He now says it’s his son’s voice.
You’ve done a wonderful job of convicting Zimmerman while assiduously ignoring the most important piece of evidence: Zimmerman, corrorborated by at least one witness, has stated that he boke off his attempted pursuit of Martin and was returning to his truck when Martin jumped him. Even under a “stand your ground” law an assailant is not justified in attacking his adversary once the adversary has broken off the confrontation. At that point the onus is on the assailant, which Martin appears to have been. That, along with Martin’s brutal assault on him, gave Zimmerman the right to use lethal defensive force.
Or was he standing off a bit ~ no longer in contact with Martin ~ and then he shot him straight through the heart?
The "witness" who claims to have seen everything refused to show his face to the reporters ~ wonder how he'd do in court ~ he has to explain that part ~ so, George, time to give yourself up. No good skulking around there in hiding. People want to talk to you.
My, my a changed story by somebody who stands to benefit massively from the changed story. Really credible.
That'd be a big no-no in your analysis regarding Martin's responsibilities. Then, too the law clearly differentiates between lethal force and less than lethal force.
If Zimmerman wasn't beaten to a pulp, and he'd drawn on Martin, he still didn't have a right to shoot him.
Besides, Zimmerman had Martin TRAPPED in a courtyard. That's at least Kidnapping!
Looks like this leftist bunch has finally given up on "Save Mumia", the twenty-year fervered celebrity drive to absolve and free a murderer who, unfortunately for them (and him), is still doing life without the possibility of parole.
Michael Moore is one of those leading the charge in the Florida case. I see another of his propaganda documentaries in the making....these types of causes celebre are how he makes his slimy living.

His dad’s girlfriend lived there with his dad
That demonstrates that he was EVASIVE, and once you demonstrate that every little particle goes under intense scrutiny.
This guy is toast.
“There are legitimate reasons for people to go about armed. I support this. But whnever somebody abuses that right,”
Sorry, “words mean things”. You said “legitimate reasons”. You are incorrect. Zimmerman has the Constitutional right and the laws of the state of Florida, allowing him to go about armed for no reason at all. He didn’t need a “legitimate reason”.
His dad’s girlfriend was the homeowner, his dad lived there with the girlfriend, the kid had a right to be there, whether or not Zimmerman liked it
you are right
Unexpected™
As witnessed, a guy walking away from you is no threat.
Also as witnessed, a guy sitting on your chest beating you IS a threat.
You lose again.
Assumes facts not in evidence.
A fact you can't seem to wrap your tiny little mind around.
Not according to the Police. If there was not enough evidence Martin returned from hiding to attack Zimmerman, Zimmerman would have been arrested.
Clearly the police know Zimmerman. He's alerted them an average of 5 times per year since 2004. If that history had been problematic, Zimmerman would now be under arrest.
