The man who shot and killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, setting off a nationwide outpouring of anger, told police that Martin knocked him down with a single punch and slammed his head into the sidewalk several times — an account that police said witnesses have corroborated, according to The Orlando Sentinel

Say now, that might be seriously accurate. Those legs remind me of the legs that Obama had on the View.

Very high likelihood this is going to blow-up in the Dems face.

Hispanics are going to feel that Zimmerman is getting rairoaded and they will start pushing back. A Black vs. Hispanic race war will start the Internal Destruct Sequence for the Democrat Party. They cannot allow it to happen.

The Dems are like Zero Mostel’s character in The Producers, selling 150% of a show. Both blacks AND hispanics cannot be #1 Favored Minority.

Question: If Martin had knocked out Zimmerman while breaking his nose, who would have been arrested?

Sometimes and I know this will be hard for some to believe, two people, BOTH exercising epically poor judgement collide and the results are deadly.

Not the makings of a race riot.

Just altogether stupid -including Obama.

Like the the accusations of the Tea Party making racist slurs towards the congressmen a few months ago. Turns out that they could never prove it and we never heard from the accusers again when proof was demanded.

Put up or shut up.

Besides, it is a classic case of “cry wolf.” Will people believe with it actually happens?

And making racist slurs during the commission of a crime contributes to a hate crime. So, to accuse someone of this without proof or evidence is slanderous.

Don’t forget the Jews...Zimmermann’s Mother is Jewish as is his surname. Jews and Hispanics, Obama and the Dems may have succeeded in pizzing off the 2 largest demographic groups in FL...a traditional swing state.

But there is now a corroborating witness who saw the event AND Zimmerman’s physical state as the Police arrived backs that description up.

Where’s Breitbart when you need him? I think he was onto something that got him killed. OT but I don’t think his predecessors will ever live up to his legacy. Fear maybe.

“Predecessors” was not the right word. Sorry. I got c’s in English class. I should have said successors maybe?

Huh? You’re telling me his Peruvian mother is Jewish? That explains why he was an altar boy in the Catholic church. LOL I think his father is/was Jewish thus the name ZIMMERMAN.

I, of course, will be the first, unlike the MSM, to admit when I am wrong if that is not the case.

Some reports of injuries to Zimmerman would, as good circumstantial evidence, corroborate Zimmerman’s version of events; i.e. cuts on the back of the head, broken nose, stains on the back of his shirt etc.

The official police report (which has been posted on FR) provides this.

In addition, medical reports from the Emergency Room where he was taken could also provide support or refutation of Zimmerman’s version of events.

He didn't go to the ER. The police report specifically says that after he was treated on-site, they didn't see the need to take him there. He instead was taken to the police station.

So now it’s an “alleged” attack on Zimmerman but in other news stories, Zimmerman definitely murdered, shot, killed Martin.

LOL! Someone needs to make a “Hitler finds out that Martin actually attacked Zimmerman” video.

Thanks. I have not seen the police report. Was it a true copy of the entire police report?
