I wonder what "the weapon" was. I notice they avoided saying "gun".

Is this another cop shooting someone reaching for his wallet?


One of the reports mentioned a baseball bat.



Is that deadlier than a bag of skittles or a rap song played too
loud?




The skittles really had nothing to do with anything. The fact that
Martin had them was played up by the anti-gun crowd and the prosecution
in an attempt to paint a certain image of him in people's minds,
including the jury.

The most significant issue is the question of Martin being on top of
Zimmerman, beating his head against the concrete. If true, and
apparently the jury felt it was, that is a cause to feel in imminent
danger of death or of serious bodily harm.

I look at it this way: Did *Martin* have a reasonable fear that *his*
life was in danger when he encountered Zimmerman? It matters not what
you think of Zimmerman, his stalking of Martin (if he did) or his
following him and challenging why he was there. None of those are life
threatening activities.

Being punched in the nose, then sat upon while having your head pounded
against a concrete walkway sounds more like a situation of being in fear
of death or serious bodily harm to me.




Zimmerman is a violent tempered woman beating punk. He walks around armed
so he can shoot people with whom he starts fights.



For how many years has Zimmerman owned and carried a gun?
How many people has he shot?

The answers define whether your accusation that he walks around armed so
he can shoot people with whom he starts fights is accurate or not.

Your accusation of him being a woman beating punk also has never been
proven.


The punk has gotten into bar fights, several women have had
"altercations" with him, abuse charges have been threatened and I think
withdrawn twice, he shot a kid dead... He's a hot-headed punk. One of
these days he is going to start something with the wrong guy, he'll be
disarmed, and he'll have the living crap beat out of him.

He shot the skittles kid dead to save his life. You'd so the same to
save your miserable hide, or maybe just for kicks.

I agree that he seems to be hot headed and I am not defending his
personality. All I am saying is (and as the evidence in the trial
indicated) Zimmerman was justifiably in fear for his life or serious
bodily harm. Nothing else ... his background ... Martin's background
.... skittles or no skittles matters. The jury came to the same conclusion.

Only in the hands of an aggressor, whereupon deadly force may be used
against the threat. You know,
like that stand your ground situation there in Huntingtown.

I predict you will be involved in a shooting.


If so, the shootee will undoubtedly have deserved it.


Yeah, right, someone who insults you in the WalMart parking lot, the
center of your life's activities.


Do you think someone's attempted insults could be worse than your attempts?

I've not gone to your place yet. Although I'll have to admit, that red barn of yours sure looks
photogenic from the air.
