That may be but I was addressing that I had read postings from him on twitter and FB that he had been suspended from assaulting the school bus driver....

It must be frustrating to have to reconfigure your defense every time new evidence comes out.

Absolutely no problemo! The news media will do it for you.

In case you don’t know this, following someone is not a crime and certainly does not justify the person being followed launching a physical atatck.

And you want to know what a broken nose has to do with a person’s claim they were attacked? Because a broken nose is a “common injury”?

Ive watched many a prize fight in which no one’s nose is broken, and I’ve been in fights without breaking or getting one broken.

I’d say a broken nose in a fight is not common.

Zimmerman lost sight of Martin and was returning to his truck when he was attacked by Martin.
This 911 call is Zimmerman screaming for help and fighting for his life. Everyone knows this is Zimmerman screaming and not Martin!
To prevent death or grave bodily injury anyone can use deadly force.
Zimmerman will not be charged because the facts don’t support charging him.
Why is the news media still, still, still showing pictures of cute little 12 year old Trayvon when at the time of death he was 17?
Oh yea, turns out he was suspended from school for smoking dope!
This whole affair is a load of horse dung!

Listen to this genius, listen to a man fighting for his life, fighting for possession of the weapon.

I wonder how long before the “empty bag of weed” becomes several dime bags.

I consider all the 'reports' to be junk.

The real issue is that Trayvon could have identified himself and that he lived in the neighborhood, or called the police if he was so worried about his Skittles.

He had options. Instead he chose to jump Mr. Zimmerman from behind and proceeded to beat him mercilessly.

He was late for school because he got in a fight with the bus driver because he was smoking pot on the bus.

LOL good one, UCANSEE2. The MSM report will say he enjoys interacting with the bus driver while spreading joy on the bus - alas, his love of life made him late for class...

I would guess you haven't seen many bar fights. Movies sort of cover up the fact that blood and teeth actually fly, when people go at it bare knuckles style.

Wasn’t that the one that the dog ate the maryjane.. and Chong rolled it AFTER it was ‘dispensed’ from the opposite end of the doggie?
