Let the zealots charge and try him. Once he walks sue the Florida government for political persecution. A good lawyer could make it happen. -- Liberal-socialism is a great idea so long as the credit is good and other people pay for it. When the credit runs out and those that pay for it leave, they can all share having nothing. |

Don't you mean casing the 'hood? When confronted, beat up a rent-a-cop? Martin was walking to his father's place after buying candy and a soft drink at a nearby convenience store. There's not the slightest evidence he was "casing" anything. And Zimmerman wasn't a rent-a-cop. Moron. |

Unless they have uncovered something new, they still do not have a case. This is politics, pure and simple. You really have to view this in light of the current FLORIDA law, not what might happen in Maryland, Massachusetts or California. All Zimmernan has to establish is that he was in fear of great bodily harm. He had a "right to be there" so there is no question about the legality of how he got into the situation. That last statement is not precisely as you claim. If he precipitated the events and then went after the kid...stand your ground may not apply. |

Not in your state. I know a guy who did 7 years on Md for killing an intruder in his home ... with his bare hands. The state argued that if he had a chance to fight, he had a chance to escape. The laws here are not fixed in concrete. |

We also have an indication that he stole things before. He was found with a bag of womens jewelry and a burglary tool in school. A. Teen-aged boys look into cars. B. Zimmerman would have no knowledge of that. |

I wonder how badly he would have to be getting beaten before he pulled his gat. Actually, it was a modest effort. |
