a defense fund immediately after the shooting is odd. The lies about

Wow, another harry krause.. perfect... plonk


What would you have done if some cop wannabe confronted you in the dark,
you didn't know what he wanted, didn't know him, he didn't identify
himself, etc.? Lay down like a coward?


So now you admit Martin attacked Zimmerman?


I really don't know what I might do if I was stupid enough to be in a
gated community where I claimed at least partial residence, and despite
the signs posted, didn't know I might be confronted by a neighborhood
watch? Humm, just don't know...

You think it was "stupid" of Martin to be walking to the place he was
staying? And how was he to know Zimmerman was a "neighborhood" watchman?

The stupid or suspicious thing is "walking slowly in the rain and
looking INTO cars". (from the police call)



Not my thought... My thinking was, how stupid do you have to be to be in
a gated, posted community, and not know the guy coming up to you with a
flashlight might be a neighborhood watch person... Or be stupid enough
to punch someone for asking a question you don't want to answer...

But...isn't that what a sawed-off little hothead like you would do? Try
to punch first and get interrogated later?

And you automatically believe everything Zimmerman, a known liar, has
said?

You automatically ASSume that a person walking up to you at night is a
nice, innocent neighborhood watchman? And where did the flashlight come
from all of a sudden? And you know that Martin punched Zimmerman just
because he asked him a question HOW?

You are assuming things that are not in evidence. There is no proof
that he did anything but watch Martin.

Zimmerman's defense fund was started over a month after the shooting
and after he was convicted in the media,

It was less than a week, IIRC.

You have automatically ASSumed Zimmerman walked up to Martin.
Cite?
