He should have been in prison.
A lesser person who got drunk and killed someone in a car would be
doing time
And there is the perfect example of why guns should be illegal. Crazed
vigilantes taking the law into their own hands.
I never heard about Moxley or Kopeckne breaking anyone's nose or
pounding their head on the pavement.
What does that have to do with crazed vigilantes taking the law into
their own hands? Of course now if some people went nuts and took
Zimmerman out and shot him, I'd guess that would be terrible eh? Why?
Because you, like other right wing crazies have already established in
your minds that it's all Martin's fault.
Nobody has produced any evidence that Zimmerman was a vigilante. In
fact the number of times he called in the police seems to prove the
opposite. On the other hand, the fight the Martin people are putting
up to prevent disclosure of his school disciplinary records and
perhaps police records seem to imply that there is something there. I
suspect he was more than just a vandal and druggie (established). The
burglary tool and the jewelry seems to imply thief if nothing else.
Zimmerman was probably right that he was casing cars. We still have no
evidence about who started the confrontation but we know Zimmerman was
on the ground with a broken nose and injury to the back of his head
before he defended himself.

I still bet he walks but O'mara is doing his best to bill out every
dime of that defense fund.
He's a punk who should have listened to the cops and let them deal with
it. The outcome could have been very different. Cops have tasers and
bean bag shotguns. The wannabe cop had his gun and a temper.

If you believe Zimmerman, he was walking back to his truck when
confronted by Martin.
It is up to the state to prove that is wrong.
Obviously he did not go for his gun right away or he would not have a
broken nose and head injuries.

I am surprised at his discipline in that he only fired one shot.
The cops in that kind of situation do a magazine dump spraying the
neighborhood.

That certainly bodes well for stationing cops at schools or, even
worse, those with even less firearms training than cops.
