Umm Innocent until proven guilty, most conservatives know, understand and believe that.
Losing a fight is not proof that he was attacked. Lots of fights end with the guy who started it getting his ass kicked.
So what?
Following martin does not point to zimmerman's innocence. Nobody has come forward to say that he saw zimmerman returning to his truck.
Following a suspicous person does not point to guilt. Whether he returned to his truck or not does not show who started the confrontation.
And, if anything that we do know points to innocence, it is martin running away from zimmerman.
Really? Maybe he ran to get Martin to follow him so he could blindside him.
I'm not saying and have not said that I know who is innocent or guilty...I don't. But I do know that there is no actual evidence or eyewitness statement that says martin attacked zimmerman. That whole theory is based strictly on the reported fact that Zimmerman was losing the fight.
Whole theory? maybe yours not mine. So IF you start a fight and someone is beating you to death YOU will just let them? If they see you have a weapon and try and take it from you and threaten to kill you its ok because you (unlikely) started the fight? Why would you start a fight when you already called police and knew they were on the way? They might have been close enough to see you start the fight -you want us to believe Zimmerman is that stupid? Would you start a fight knowing the police were on their way? Why, what ws to be gained?
It used to be that conservatives prided ourselves on seeking the truth no matter how ugly it might be. That concept has gone out the window here on this.
No it has gone out your window that has blinds on it and tinted glass and you can only see what you want to.
And, to quote you,
"Whether he returned to his truck or not does not show who started the confrontation."
Neither does anything else that anyone has written here --- thank you for proving my point.

Ummm yourself --- the concept is "presumed" innocent until proven guilty.
Was OJ innocent? Are all the people currently awaiting trial throughout this country innocent?
No, they are presumed innocent, which has zero bearing on whether or not they committed the crime. Plenty of guilty people escape prosecution or conviction.
