Another load of “grape drink” drug addict crapola. Trayvon Martin was shot by a volunteer security team from a neighborhood (who was a little too engaged in enforcement, but legitimately on a neighborhood watch rotation patrol, and was legally armed under FL law) watch group.

Trayvon Martin came out of bushes in hiding and attacked Mr. Zimmerman, pounding his head on the concrete curb— easily could have killed him, but.... surprise, the victim was armed with a 9MM and shot him right up through the gut (and he bled out internally). You try to kill someone they have a RIGHT of self defense, in this case responding to deadly force WITH deadly force.

From this case was legislated the FL STAND YOUR GROUND law— which everyone visiting FL (and presumably reciprocally from a State which Florida recognizes carry permits) should know the entire law, and the limits/requirements of their actions in self defense. Rules of Engagement, if you will. Know them, follow them, and you will not be charged for defending yourself.

DNC is ONE SICK outfit full of miscreants, criminals of every level and anti-Constitution and anti the United States as a Nation. Period.

I think you are referring maybe to the words, “Purple Drank”.

"From this case was legislated the FL STAND YOUR GROUND law—..."

Florida's self-defense law, including that part known as "stand your ground", pre-existed the Zimmerman case.

"...Know them, follow them, and you will not be charged for defending yourself."

Zimmerman was.

Not only was Trayvon pounding George Zimmerman's head on the concrete, but he was apparently trying to grab Zimmerman's gun to shoot him. If he had succeeded, it would have been reported briefly in the local paper and the rest of the country would never have heard of either man.

The story got national attention because of Al Sharpton, who may have assumed that Zimmerman was Jewish (Bob Dylan is Jewish and his real name is Zimmerman). Zimmerman isn't Jewish but he is one-eighth black (a fact the media never considered important enough to mention).
