I am hoping for La Raza to get involved in this.

Don't hold your breath. La Raza members are Hispanic Socialist Supremicists. This racial hysteria furthers their agenda.

Wasn't Zimmerman WARNED not to follow Martin by the police dispatcher?

No, he was told, "You don't need to do that [follow him]."

Why did Zimmerman choose not to take that advice?

Why does it matter?

Why are you failing to post accurate pictures like these?

They were accurate several years ago when they were taken.

> Stand by for black panther assault on Sanford PD headquarters?

A part of me hopes they do just that.

I can’t think of a quicker way to wipe them out.

What if she ends up agreeing with the Sanford cops and doesn't press charges?

Moving to the serious side for a moment, I see society wide evidence that most blacks, including public "servants" opt to side with racial color rather than objective observation.

For convenience, the prosecutor can bypass the police and present whatever selected evidence she wishes to a Grand Jury with immunity (for the prosecutor) and little risk of consequences.

She can bring in ham sandwiches for lunch, (and so the jury doesn't get confused), and assure herself of every black vote in the county for 200 years (as LBJ would say).

So this ain't going away, but there is still the risk that the New Black Panthers will do something really stupid despite her.

La Raza is an organization run by professional Mexican, but funded entirely through foundation grant and government money. The concept of “La Raza Cosmica” only exists in Mexican culture. In other words, don’t hold your breath on them getting involved with a German/Rican hybrid like GZ.

” Why did Zimmerman leave his truck to follow or otherwise confront Martin? “

Because he didnt recognize him in his neighborhood and was acting suspicious. There have been break ins. What’s wrong with being concerned and observant.

“Wasn’t Zimmerman WARNED not to follow Martin by the police dispatcher? Why did Zimmerman choose not to take that advice? “

He was asked to stop, he lost track, went back his vehicle when he was approached from behind.

So, he did stop. Personally, I would hope more people took notice of what looks out of place in their communities. I don’t think he did anything wrong whatsoever.

Where is there any evidence that Zimmerman continued to follow Martin? How did you arrive at the conclusion that he kept following? He said he stopped and was heading back to his vehicle.

Can we assume this will be on the front page of newspapers around the country tomorrow? Presented in a breathless fashion? HAHAHHAHAHHA

(just kidding - we know the MSM is biased, one-sided, bigoted, and ALWAYS jumps to conclusions some ‘right winger’ is the villain. )

I did a little research on the picture you posted. The Miami Gardens Bulldogs are a peewee football team - which means that Martin could not have been more than 12-13 years old in that picture.

There is nothing illegal about getting out of a vehicle to observe something. MAybe big sis with the see something say something fueled his passion. But, he was not WARNED. It was not even a lawful order.

Plus, it was Martin who approached and confronted Zimmerman. You really should go to the sanford PD website for the facts.

There have been break ins. What’s wrong with being concerned and observant.

Additionally, Zimmerman was a Neighborhood Watch trained Officer, with drug interdiction training.

His job was to follow, observe and report on suspicious persons in his neighborhood, where he was, and he did all three.

"Looks like the pictures you posted are of the wrong kid. Why are you failing to post accurate pictures like these? "

I hope you were being sarcastic. Next time, make that CLEAR! Placing a "/sarc" tag at the end of your comment is helpful. This above IS Trayvon! If not being sarcastic, YOU do your research..

The "little boy in the football jersey" photo is probably about 5 years old and was submitted by the family to the media solely for the purpose of generating more sympathy for Trayvon. Perhaps MORE pictures, Trayvon's account names and profiles of his character will enlighten you?:

I'm dealing with FACTS here so don't imply otherwise.

Why did martin sucker punch Zimmerman and pound his head on the sidewalk and then go for Zimmerman’s concealed gun to shoot Zimmerman?

What law says it’s illegal to follow a suspicious person in a burglarized neighborhood?

Zimmerman said Martin punched him and evidence on him supports that. I’m guessing that the corornor will have been able to indentify any bruising or cuts on Martin’s knuckles consistant with that if that’s the case.

you must be one of those sitting there , thinking those photos of him aged 12 is what he looked like at the time of this incident, you must also be the one who has no clue what is said on his twitter account, do you actually know.
Have you seen photo’s of him acting all gangster?
Have you seen his twitter account and what he said?
Yes it’s all gangster crap
Have you seen how he acted with the latest photo’s, acting all gangster like?

Yes you one of those who I ma one about and still cannot understand the facts of all this so I will answer your question as it seems you do not know the answer to the question.

HE DID TURN AROUND AND HEADED BACK TO HIS CAR, HE THEN GOT PUNCHED FROM BEHIND AND ATTACKED

He did get out and follow, fact no law was broken.
He was told to not follow, fact, he then turned around and headed back to his car, FACT,
he then was punched and knocked to the ground FACT.

That answers your question so my advice to you as you still not comprehend the FACTS is that do some research, look around on here and stop thinking your local news is telling you the truth.
Even by making that question and saying he did not turn back to his car shows how you do not know what is ahppeneing and maybe the Today show, GMA, Ellen, Oprah etc what ever crap you watch is not telling you everything

Oh and out of curiosity what states are you from?

Hell even the police reports RIGHT HERE ON THIS THREAD is saying the evidence is consistent and you still can’;t get it wrapped around your head or into your head.
