We only have the word of a polices spokeshole that BOTH brothers were drinking. Now, you're completing the smear, and they were "drunks".

Nice job!

Now, you're completing the smear, and they were "drunks".

Brandon Fischer said that they were both making their way through a bottle of Crown Royal.

I think anyone who has experience with alcoholism would say that a person who thinks nothing of downing shots of hard alcohol when he knows he has to drive at night in a storm is what you call a "problem drinker."

Perhaps by "smear" you meant "logical inference."

Further:

The only place George Zimmerman could back up was into the sidewalk.

That's silly.

He could have run away, as so many commentators argued. But he had no obligation to.

The trooper was standing in water and literally could not see the ground in front of him.

Like George Zimmerman, he had absolutely no obligation to retreat.

If Nehemiah Fischer, drunk and belligerent, had attacked a civilian Good Samaritan who was trying to help him avoid drowning in a flood, and that civilian had decided to hold his ground, you would call it a 'good shoot."

You're arguing from unbelievably weak premises, based solely on your animosity toward law enforcement.
