Zimmerman says he was attacked. Physical evidence backs this up.

Prove Zimmerman attacked Treyvon. What? No proof of that at all? You don’t say...

I guess we’ll just have to take George at his word then...

All the evidence is on your side.

Given Zimmerman’s law enforcement demeanor, and his watch captain type, having a concealed weapons license and being armed, and having been involved in this long period of watch captain surveillance and sustained communications with 911, it seems to me more likely that if he confronted Trayvon, he would maintain distance and be ready to deploy his gun.

His pistol would be the focus of his asserting control over, or a defensive posture from, the stranger that he had been watching and discussing with the police.

What kind of grown man under those circumstances would instead be leaping on the person he is watching, to grapple and fist fight, possibly against a knife, exposing his useless but present pistol to whatever might come from it.

What we know for sure, is that all of the resulting physical evidence exactly fits Zimmerman’s claim of being attacked.

Zimmerman's statement is by definition self-serving. The law (SCOTUS) allows that anybody will lie to avoid or mitigate criminal responsibility and punishment.

It is not proof. If the results were reversed I would feel the same about any statement from martin...I would not take it as truth without what the law calls "neutral coroborrating evidence."

If you want to say that it is your opinion that martin attacked zimmerman then that's fine and it may well be so. But for all those who state that the undeniable truth is that martin stalked, circled around on, attacked, assaulted, jumped, etc zimmerman I say show proof.
