“The elder Zimmerman said that as his son started to reach for his cell phone, Martin, 17, punched him in the nose, knocking the larger man to the pavement.”

So Zimmerman got punched as his hand went into his pocket to retrieve a bulky metal obeject?

So you’re saying Zimmerman could have shot Martin as soon as he put his hands in his waistband?

Didn’t think so.

So Martin can defend himself against a perceived threat but Zimmerman
cannot defend himself against an actual attack.

If a kid was rushing toward him, I do not believe he was reaching for a cell phone. Anyone would have reached for a gun.

No one said a bulky metal obeject but you. Whose phone is bulky? You and your preconceived ideas need to take it somewhere else.

Cell phones are not “bulky” and also not “metal”. Sorry...but that dog don’t huint.

Trayvon knocked Zimmerman down...he should have left it at that and got the heck out. But he didn’t. He proceeded to beat Zimmerman severly, hitting him in the face and then bashing his head against the ground.

As a result, he got shot and killed. Tragic for a young man’s life to end like that...but I would have done the same thing at that point.

Trayvon initiated violence, then stepped it up to endanger Zimmerman’s life.

Zimmerman’s condition as described by the police and the witnesses matches what he said happened. I believe now that Zimmerman defended himself, and did so legally.

It’s time Florida’s elected officials grow a pair and send the State Troopers to either evict the New Black Panther’s from the State or arrest them for conspiracy to commit kidnapping and assault, if not murder.

This is all genned up race baiting and divisiveness to destract the public away from Obama’s abysmal record as President.

Sorry...but that dog don’t hunt.

The only person who said he reached for any object was Zimmerman and his father relays that information here.

If he was reaching for his gun WHY would he or his father say anything about reaching for anything?

Are you daft?
