MOBILE, Alabama -- The fatal gun shot that cut down a single mother of two Saturday night occurred in front of her teenage daughter, family members said today.
The daughter, who asked that her name not be used, said she was standing in her front yard when her mother, Wendy Fisher, ran across the street to retrieve their dog.
Fisher yelled at a passing car to slow down because it nearly hit the pet, the daughter said. At that point a black man with short hair got out of the car, she said.
The daughter said she is not sure if he or one of the two or three other men inside the vehicle fired 3 shots. The man who exited the car was wearing blue jeans and a light T-shirt, she said.

Cone on, now. Get your facts straight. There was no vehicular ‘stalking.’ Z exited his vehicle and followed on foot while reporting to police’ dispatchers. He was returning to his vehicle when Travon confronted him.
Hmmm. Good thing I’m not called for jury duty on this trial. Can’t claim to be impartial. (chuckle)
A whole lot worse, I am afraid. I just wonder if it will ever stop? I think not.
OK. Closing down for the night, wishing everyone the best.
Last time I was in New Orleans I was driving down Rampart St and about 20 youths jay walked across from Armstrong park toward the French Quarter. I kept my distance otherwise they would have walked across the hood of my car or worse.. I image that you wouldn’t get a fair trial for running down their youths.
That cube illustrates something I’ve been thinking about for a while. I read one time that traffic engineers have a term for patterns where there is very slow traffic and very fast traffic. They call it “friction”. I think of this when I drive to work at 6:00 in the morning through downtown and see “zombies” roaming the streets. A half block down the road I’ll see a yuppie out for thier morning jog. The contrasts could not be any more different. Every time I see this I think, “one day this will not end well”. “Friction” is what this looks like to me.
Unfortunately moving, for a variety of reasons, is not an option for me. I am well armed any time I leave my house, and I am prepped about as well as I can be for my situation.
I’ve told you before but I’ll tell you again, I really enjoyed your books.
I think you find similar “spinelessness” in the larger cities of the South, but not in the smaller cities and rural areas.
Although in smaller cities and towns in the South, there is a lot of black crime....but you do not see it so much against whites or in their neighborhoods. You just do not have the White Guilt Liberalism in smaller cities and towns in the South
Seminole County actually is less White Guilt than other areas in the South...which may be why the GOP Governor and GOP AG sent in their own people to prosecute Zimmerman, when our local State Atty was not going to do so (and correctly so)
No difference.
He had no business approaching a stranger at night.
There’s a big difference here, between being a good witness and being the victim in danger of serious bodily harm if not death. All witnesses in this case were safely ensconced in their nearby homes.
If Z had stayed in the car, he would have remained no more than a witness.
“Be a good witness” means to stay out of the action and be a witness. It does not mean engage, follow or do anything that causes involvement.
Z is the perfect example of what can happen to persons who try to play cop.
Trevon (AKA President's racist son) is the perfect example of a N$#%R racist thug who tried to play bad A$$. It demonstrated good gun control. May any racist thug get similar results if he attacks me (or any armed citizen). If he attacks an unarmed citizen, even you, may he also need a funeral when a concerned citizen like myself shows him what decent people do to scum who prey on others when it is necessary.
Obama is the perfect racist like Jesse Jackson who tried to incite race riots in response to someone killing an attacker in self defense.
Have YOU figured out why Obama is purposely trying to destroy America economically, socially, militarily etc. OR are you still stuck on is Obama a socialist? OR have you already explained the fake SSN the fraud has been using?
Yeh -- and Wendy Fischer should never have owned a dog. Think about it -- then go take a long nap.
Since when is getting out of your vehicle a crime???
Martin could not have laid a hand on him had he not got out.
Ahhhh -- now there's the crime. So that's okay with you??? If someone gets out of their vehicle you are justified in beating the cr*p out of them???
I repeat: Two dumb asses met in the dark.
Make that three -- include yourself.
Unreal.
You keep making the accusation that Zimmerman confronted Martin.
You say that he was stalking him with that politically incorrect SUV.
Your “willful disbelief” of the actual facts and the laws of this state to make your points even further shows you to be exactly what your handle implies.
You are absolutely wrong, period, end of story. As your basis for argument is totally wrong, so is the rest of your foolish argument. So get over the FACT you have no fargin idea what you are talking about and go back to scaring little kids in your neighborhood where you are more evenly matched.
You obviously know nothing about the script.
Anyways, I know for a fact if I am minding my business and I notice a car following me, at night, and then the chap gets out to come and ask me questions that guy would be walking up to a gun pointed at him.
Sounds like you are cut out of the same mold as thugs like Trayvon Martin.
Ask George Zimmerman what happens when you don’t.
I’m with you. I voted for both. It won’t happen again.
I hope it works out for you, that is, when push comes to shove, the good folks will band together and hammer the bad folks down hard, to the point where they are not so bold.
The election? AS long as obama is confident of winning, nothing much will happen. A few Whites might get their shulls cracked, But, what the hell! Most Whites are not upset when other Whites get their heads busted, particularly by Blacks. What upsets Whites, and the Zimmerman threads will bear this out, Is when the Whites fight back and it results in negative consequences for the attacker. To them, that is a Cardinal Sin.
