Does it hurt to distort things so vigorously? You think that by spouting nonsense, somehow the actual facts will get disregarded? Laughable. The young black kid was likely just another stupid thug culture devotee, and witnesses and evidence apparently support the version stated by the older gentleman. The only relevant facts to be considered, if Zimmerman’s (apparently corroborated) version is to be taken as the truth (and you have NOTHING to support any other version), are when perky little Trayvon stopped his assault, and whether Zimmerman could still feel like his life was in imminent danger at that moment. If so, then Trayvon voluntarily surrendered his right to life. If not, then Mr Zimmerman should face penalties. Everything that’s going on right now in the press and at these violence-inciting “protest rallies” are absolutely inappropriate, knee-jerk reactionism that is being used to keep certain people in the news... and possibly to distract from other news.
There was an utterly horrible column in the Dallas Morning News today written by a gal named J. Floyd. It portrayed the usual leftist line that Zimmerman was an overzealous, cop wannabe.
I let her have a piece of my mind (now I don’t have much left).
As long as we’re guessing here (and that’s all we’re doing at this point—but at least we are making educated guesses)— I’m guessing that Trayvon decided he was being disrespected and turned on the man following him.
Since the man was going back to his truck, Trayvon got the jump on him and was having a nice time doing a little beating on the guy. I doubt if it occurred to him that Zimmerman had a gun.
That J. Floyd woman also was hysterical about the fact that Zimmerman was ‘carrying.’
Most of us would carry in that situation, I know I would.
