There is no evidence that Zimmerman ever approached Martin. It appears
the opposite is true.
He says he was jumped from behind.

No evidence yet.


Zimmerman is the defendant
The state has to prove it is not true.
We know from the girlfriends phone transcript, Martin approached
Zimmerman

Fat guys with BMIs of over 36 do not "pursue", certainly not fast
enough to catch a 17 year old football star who wants to get away.

What was the kid supposed to do, allow the guy to come and attack him?
How was Martin supposed to know that the guy wasn't some thug wanting to
rob him, or kill him?

When Zimmerman asked him what he was doing there the first time, all Martin had to say was "I'm going to my father's house, he lives at 168 Maple Dr., call him if you don't believe me." Game over, and you guys wouldn't be having this argument.

Since ya'll are so wound up about this, here's another take on it that I just happened to have run across. Interesting.

http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-765534

I like how the article paints Zimmerman as a gang member which also
paints Martin as a racist. Nice touch.

The interesting part of the transcript is:

Zimmerman: Okay. These a**holes they always get away...S**t he's
running.

Dispatcher: Are you following him? Zimmerman: Yeah

Dispatcher: Ok, we don't need you to do that.

Zimmerman: Ok

Once Zimmerman got out of his car and pursued Martin all bets were off.
Zimmerman wound up getting his ass kicked and fired a gun because he was
losing the fight.

Yep, the no retreat clause is the same for Martin as it is for
Zimmerman.

You whole heatedly believe that if a person didn't have a gun and asked
another person a question which led him to beat the questioner to death
it's ok, as long as the person being asked a question is black and wins
the altercation... I get it...

Where the hell did I ever say such thing? I wonder if John will admonish
YOU for "making **** up"? YOU are officially the first to interject
racism into the thread, good job. Now, what does your **** above have to
do with my statement that the no retreat clause is the same for Martin
as it is for Zimmerman?
