while Martin had an immature prefrontal cortex still overruled by primitive limbic structures

In other words, Marilee Swirczek is arguing that Martin was little more than a primitive savage.

So, using liberal "logic", Marilee Swirczek is obviously a hate-filled racist.

QED.

The problem was Trayvon decided he had the right to break a man's nose and attempt to kill him because he was 'dissed'.

Trayvon and 'beat me, beat me harder liberal elites) believe there's a law against 'following' someone. There's not. There has NEVER been a law in the United States against 'following' a person for 3 or 4 minutes. Even longer... Never.

Blacks like Trayvon and his friends have the excuse that they're stupid and poorly educated - but what's the excuse for a white liberal elite like Professor Marilee Swirczek?

The professor needs further pre-frontal cortex development as it is evident he is incapable of being truthful.

In other words, Zimmerman ... had a mature prefrontal cortex and a gun

No -- Martin had Zimmerman's prefrontal cortex and was banging it on the concrete and he was going after his gun.

Please don't tell us that you're tenured.

“...Zimmerman, almost twice Martin’s age...”

Professor, 28* is not ‘almost twice’ 17. In fact, it’s barely past the age of ‘maturation of the prefrontal cortex’ which, one supposes, the professor is still awaiting.

How did this one get thru grammar school, much less become “Professor?”

*Zimmerman’s age at the time of the shooting

Is someone broke Professor Marilee Swirczek nose, then proceeded to knock her down and bash her head against concrete, she might be ‘afraid’ too... Even if the guy beating her brains out was one foot taller or 5 inches shorter... this woman’s a fool.

[that the just-turned 17-year-old Martin did not possess — a fully developed prefrontal cortex. ]

Neither does the author.

[That sentence makes me think about both Zimmerman and Martin in a new light. ]

Yeah, well everyone knows that stuff looks really different under a black light.

There is no logic in any of the arguments this supposed writer puts forth. This young punk started a fight, trying to kill George Zimmerman and Zimmerman ended it to save his own life. The verdict sits quite well with me. If someone is trying to seriously injure or kill you, you have the right to defend yourself. Up to and including killing the other person. How hard is that for these mentally deficient morons to understand?

Hmmm...I guess my 14 year old, 6’0” 220 lb. high school freshman defensive lineman son doesn’t have a fully developed prefrontal cortex either. Wonder why he isn’t out on the streets, going full MMA on everyone he perceives to be threat?

Probably because he does have something that will get him by until he develops a prefrontal cortex...the wrath of two very involved parents who would “tear him a new one” if he so much as spoke to an elder in a disrespectful tone, much less laid a hand on anybody except in self defense.

Maybe THAT’S what Trayvon needed until he got cortexed up...

Evidence and facts be damned....

"It's not the facts of the case, it's the seriousness of the charge..."

GZ was SUPPOSED to be guilty so that gun control could be legislated from the bench.

With the acquittal, they have to rely on whipping the masses into a frenzy, to include black-on-white attacks to scare people into demanding action.

When I was reading this pile of tripe, I said to myself only a liberal professor could write this much nonsense and sound articulate.

I then went back to the top and discovered I was right.

According to Farmer, Martin wasn’t followed and killed because he was black, but because he was tall and therefore not innocent.

This is the point at which the professorette's mind jumped the tracks, like that speeding train in Spain.

The want to keep this subject in the forefront, even if they have to begin babbling and just mention the names. I guess racism is becoming difficult to stir up.

where [Zimmerman] forced a confrontation

More fact aversion in the beatification of St. Skittles.
