Good points. Though I think you’re off about when Zimmerman left his car. My understanding is that he was still on the phone with the dispatcher for part of the time he was on foot chasing Martin.

I too fell for the original story, in pretty much the same way you did.

This is kind of scary, because without the internet little of this countervailing info would have come out, and I would still believe the MSM story.

Had you heard that Z had led a public campaign to get two of the cops who investigated him punished in a case involving the beating of a homeless black man? At the very least, this would mean they had little reason to like him or cut him any slack.

I guess I’m prejudiced. I didn’t fall for the original story because it fit too nicely into the main-stream media PC racial paradigm.

Which means I never believe what I hear from them in the first two weeks. So far, I’ve never been wrong with this practice. I thought there was probably no rape at duke, too.

The time may come when I turn out to be mistaken. Real evidence trumps all, in my book. But until you have it, go with the probabilities.

This is true about the homeless man.....Zimmerman went to his defense....

..Hannity and Zimmerman's dad were talking about this the other night, with the attorneys present.

yet instead of “seeking the truth” the prosecutor is adopting an “arrest everyone no matter what” strategy in order to wash government hads of the POLITICAL problem and sacrifice zimmerman on the altar of hoodie law.
