George Zimmerman is a Dirty Harry wannabe who picked a fight with someone whom he mistakenly accused of wrongdoing and lost control of the situation he created, then probably panicked, shooting Trayvon Williams during the scuffle.

#4,

And the evidence for that is located where?!?

[dirtboy]

I guess waiting for the evidence to come out is asking too much of you.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

From what I understand he didn’t say or do anything to Trayvon. He called 911, they told him to not do anything, and he didn’t. And when he was walking back to his SUV he got sucker punched. This Trayvon got ticked off because he was being followed, and I believe this is what Trayvon told someone over the phone. To me it didn’t matter what color he was. It’s a gated community. If they don’t recognize someone then it will arouse suspicion.

[MtBaldy]

Oy vey. Do you realize very probably none of that is true?

Do you have any evidence to support ANY of it? That didn’t come from Newsweek or Time? No? Didn’t think so. Back under your bridge, troll.

[bcsco]

You know this? How?

[Diggity]

Why was there a scuffle?

[driftless2]

"lost control"

Well yes, but between the call to 9/11 and Martin getting shot, we don't know what happened. Do nvs like Zimmerman have the right to ask unknown people walking through their (Zimmerman's) neighborhood what they're doing? If they are, then Zimmerman isn't guilty of anything up until the confrontation. That's just it, so far, we (and you) don't know what happened that caused Martin to get himself shot. I sincerely doubt Zimmerman simply walked up to Martin and gunned him down. Let's wait and see what transpires.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Can’t agree with that.

George Zimmerman is a concerned citizen who protects his neighborhood by volunteering in the local watch program, and is legally allowed to carry a firearm. George was out on patrol as part of the watch program, identified a situation that was abnormal enough to contact the 911 emergency number and request the police. He then attempted to maintain eye contact with the suspect and when he lost sight of them, returned towards his vehicle when he was attacked and viciously beaten by a punk kid who tried to take his firearm from him. George then shot the kid during the struggle. He remained at the location and received medical treatment by the EMS for the injuries received which included a broken nose.

Your Daily KOS Troll conclusion is not supported by fact.

I suppose the entire Sanford Police Department, the local prosecutor, and all the Sanford meter maids ARE avowed racist co-conspirators as well.

People like you make due process and fair trial supporters puke.Where do you want it?

Or did you simply leave off the /S ( sarc) indicator?

Buahahahaha!

[Uncle Slayton]

Capt. Zimmeman’s father has laid out the facts and those facts do not mesh with what you are saying.

[HereInTheHeartland]

Cherry picking the information to support your Black Panther viewpoint won't go over well here.

I presume you have evidence of which the prosecutor who declined to prosecute is unaware?

Withholding such evidence is a crime. I suggest that you contact her immediately or face prosecution for interfering with an investigation.

[mass55th]

Is that what your spirit-guide told you?

[JimRed]

George Zimmerman is a Dirty Harry wannabe who picked a fight...

You are buying into the lying media version of events. He was returning to his vehicle when he was attacked. In "Dirty Harry" mode there is no way he would have been knocked down and injured; it would have been his "make my day" moment.

[JSteff]

You are an a$$ with no desire for, nor grasp of facts.
Now doesn't the gated community of FR keep out an a$$ like you?
Or do you work for NBC, CBS, CNN, the Black Panther Party, et al?
Take your tainted marbles and go home child.

[aruanan]

George Zimmerman is 1) a Dirty Harry wannabe who 2) picked a fight with someone whom 3) he mistakenly accused of wrongdoing and 4) lost control of the situation he created, then 5) probably panicked, shooting Trayvon Williams during 6) the scuffle.

Good summary of the current spin. You managed to include at least 5 characterizations for which there is no evidence before coming to the fact of a shooting just before minimizing the altercation by calling it a "scuffle." That's almost as good verbally as what news magazines have done running photos of a 13 year old Trayvon on their covers.

[AuH2ORepublican]

From the evidence I’ve seen, Zimmerman was returning to his car when Martin confronted him, punched him in the nose and started slamming his head on the sidewalk, and had to shoot Martin to avoid getting killed or at least hurt very badly. At the very least, you should refrain from concluding that Zimmerman was a vigilante who picked the fight with Martin.

I'm so glad you cleared up the whole situation for us.......
