I think you are quoting someone else there, Tim. I think anyone who
has
a record of violence and who is outside his or her home and who shoots
an unarmed stranger is likely guilty of a serious felony. Zimmerman
has
a record of violence, he was not in his home, he was advised to leave
Mr. Martin to the police, he stalked Martin instead, and when the
situation he created got away from him, he shot and killed Martin.

--------------------------------------------

May be the case. But to be accurate, the "record of violence" you
reference has been determined to be rather minor in nature as it
relates to his prior arrest. Basically, he was drinking along with a
friend and acted like an idiot, same as most drunks do. The initial
charge of "resisting an officer with violence" was reduced to
"resisting an officer without violence" and then dismissed when he
agreed to enter an alcohol abuse program.

As to the domestic violence accusation ... there was never a charge.
An ex-girlfriend filed for a restraining order. Zimmerman filed a
counter restraining order. Both were granted. That was the end of
that. A "domestic violence" charge was never pursued by either.

If Zimmerman's past is important then so is Martin's. There are
several examples of alleged actions and behavior that diminish the
portrayal of him being a upright, law abiding model citizen. The
only one that has been officially acknowledged by records and his
family is the school suspensions. In fact, he was under a suspension
when this whole affair occurred.

I am waiting for the Martin was an angel card to be played. I am also waiting for a picture
of Marin that isn't three or four years old being used. The obvious message of using an older
picuture portraying Martin as a pre-teen is dishonest.
