I'm not concerned.

That is what got Martin shot

Oh, in what criminal act was Martin engaging?

Assault and battery


Prove it.

That is not how it works. The state has to prove Zimmerman was not
attacked.


Oh. You can claim Martin was engaged in criminal acts and deny that
Zimmerman started the fight. I get it.

You bet! For one thing, I don't like leaving things like that up to
someone's discretion, you either broke the law or you didn't!

So is the girlfriend lying?

She says Martin confronted Zimmerman

No she didn't. That's a lie.


OK what do you think she said

When Martin was cornered by a gun wielding assailant he asked him "Why
are you following me"? I'd have asked the same thing. She never, ever
said that Martin confronted Zimmerman. It's the other way around.

Martin did not know Zimmerman was armed. Prove otherwise.

If you think the law is all black and white like that, you've never
seen a good defense attorney in action.
