I'm pretty sure most sane people are not trying to turn this into a race issue. But the inability of the few to drop it is what is making it into a bigger issue than it needs to be.
Then we have about half of a nation insane out there...its much worse than you think..this isnt a few nuts that believe this stuff but a rather large portion of the people.

Even taking race out of the equation, this is still rather far fetched.
The guy may very well get arrested we just dont know...They tend to be very careful before arresting for murder or manslaughter

Perhaps sane/insane isn't the correct wording, then. The paranoid are making this a race issue. Is that more accurate?

The end result IMO is that Zimmerman was a puss...got beat up ..shot the guy before getting beat up further

It goes beyond paranoid...although paranoid is included.
For the press to twist everything up and for people to actually believe it after it has been shown to be inaccurate is almost some kind of odd mental need to full fill.
We still dont know what happened...both sides are exaggerating
All we know is there was a shooting with a witness that saw Zimmerman on the ground getting hit.
We dont know how it began though...only how it ended

it is gonna be a stretch to show Zimmerman was not in a battle

unless you want to put the witness who stated Martin was on top hitting Zimmerman into the conspiracy

So let us add up who needed to be in the conspiracy

Police.......... who also wanted to press manslaughter charges

DA............. who asked for the state AG to press charges

AG............ who said there was not enough evidence

Witness..... who said Martin was on top

Police........ who said Zimmermans back was grassy and he had blood on his face and back of the head

EMT......... who stated Zimmerman had blood on his face and head


Damn .... That is some conspiracy


Face it John. The story is nothing like originally indicated in the press where it was insinuated a racist white man executed as black kid. This same alleged racist who is reported to tutor kids, including blacks.

The only thing that is sure is that Zimmerman shot the kid. The events leading up to it are up for dispute. The fact Zimmerman got out of his car is irrelevant. If I was to guess one of the two started lipping off. Then the kid got the best of Zimmerman and Zimmerman got free and panicked and shot out of a sense of fear. Certainly not a cold blooded execution which is what some nuts have indicated. Including some idiot people in congress along with the likes of Spike Lee and the New Black Panthers. The rhetoric is sickening

It could very well become a case of felony murder, however. Depending on what happened, if it was determined that Zimmerman commited any felony act and Martin died as a result of it... you have a murder charge.

For sure...The crowd is throwing a fit merely because he hasnt been charged.
Laws vary by state..to go further...here if you do something stupid you can get manslaughter..doesnt have to be a crime involved.
They may very well find a charge for him yet....I am not saying I would agree with a conviction without full details..but I do see it highly possible he may be arrested yet.
But as of current if he went to try to see where the guy was and was attacked....I cant justify prosecuting him.

Americans are free to not be persued by fellow citizens. He had no right whatsoever to be following Martin.
We dont know that he pursued him.
Its not a crime if he did..unless there is a court order to state otherwise
None the less if someone is walking up to you dont have the right to attack....unless that person is acting in a threatening manner.

Great article by a CONSERVATIVE on how the nut-job wing of the Republican party is WRONG for getting involved and defending Zimmerman.

http://spectator.org/archives/2012/03/29/count-me-out-on-trayvon-martin/

I liked this bit, especially.

And "Stand Your Ground" -- what the hell is that supposed to mean? Once a fight begins, can't Martin stand his ground as well? And if both can stand their ground, doesn't it just become a contest of who is better armed? It sounds to me like the guy who brings the deadliest weapon wins.

Unfortunately, it's not illegal to be fucking stupid. We know Zimmerman wasn't pruning his bushes sipping lemonade, oblivious to the ills of the world when Martin jumped out of a nowhere, assaulting him and requiring lethal response. That's not the scenario according to the evidence we have. Otherwise I'd be fine with the outcome.

It also appears Martin was not actually committing a crime. Therefore, this death could potentially be a result of Zimmerman knocking down the first domino in the chain of bad decision making.

In essence, I suspect all of this is his fault. Doesn't mean I think/know he intended to kill Martin, or will be incarcerated.
Just means I think this guy minimally needs a time out from his neighborhood watch duties.

Hopefully they had a forensic examiner also look at the body.
You cant hit someone without bruising your hand...more importantly if you die 30 seconds later there is not going to be time for them to develop.

But as you say...its just one more thing that isnt falling in place for him for the general public.

Of great interest will be some pictures of Zimmerman before being treated at the scene

Yeah really. This would definitely help him ... which makes me think there must be a reason they have not been put out there.

Of course this is all speculation at this point ... but gut instincts are just getting worse and worse.

I sure hope the liberals are not right on this one....if they are ole Zimmerman may have a rough future ahead for himself.
I cant help but weigh in the witness that saw the fight..and the screams belong to Zimmerman.

May have not been a blood battle..Trayvon may have whipped his ass a little then Zimmerman shot him after getting up?
I dont think will ever know..but they are giving Zimmerman the benefit of the doubt at the moment.
I also find it odd that more people didnt look out the window during the fight with the screaming going on
I also find it odd that Trayvon was supposed to have called his dad with concerns of being followed...But the father had no mention of this when looking for his child the next day at the police station..nor why did he not find out who got shot that night?...it was only a few units down..would have been lots of commotion.

Me?.......ROFL...Read the thread{s}
The liberals turned into a liberal conservative issue
Pretty much as follows...arrest him now equals liberal
Anyone that doesnt agree is labeled a conservative.
Not to mention if they are right and this Zimmerman wasnt acting in self defense..we will never hear the end of it.
But most importantly..A young man would have not died that evening unjustifiably

Why in God's name are you making this into a liberal/conservative issue?

It's weird how politics got into this issue. But unfortunately, many of the usual suspects of the talking heads are jumping right in.

Did you see this article in this thread:

http://www.offtopicz.net/showthread.php?83221-Trayvon-Martin-Video-Shows-No-Blood-or-Bruises-on-George-Zimmerman&p=2158593&viewfull=1#post2158593

When we all first started discussing the issue here at OTz, I didn't see any politics. But all of a sudden some people started using common conservative talk show buzz words in defense of Zimmerman, and then out come the Jesse, Al and Black Panther comments.

Reasonable conservatives and liberals are not politicizing the issue - but the politics have been injected big time sadly.


Me?.......ROFL...Read the thread{s}

Yes you ya right wing nut job. :p

The liberals turned into a liberal conservative issue

Not true. It was you righties that started invoking Al, Jesse, race pimping et al into the conversation.

Pretty much as follows...arrest him now equals liberal

Not true. Read the article written by a conservative that I posted on the first page of this thread. Most Americans believe Zimmerman should be charged with at least manslaughter and be tried before a jury of his peers.

Anyone that doesnt agree is labeled a conservative.

Well - you cannot deny what is coming out of the conservative blogs and talk shows and is getting posted right here.

Not to mention if they are right and this Zimmerman wasnt acting in self defense..we will never hear the end of it.

You mean if about 75% of America is right? I reckon the remaining nut-jobs will say Jesse and Al won if Zimmerman is charged, tried and found guilty.

But most importantly..A young man would have died that unjustifiably

A young man HAS DIED UNJUSTIFIABLY. There is no dispute about that. Zimmermans complete disregard for the instructions of law enforcement caused this incident. Had Zimmerman stayed put, we would not be having this discussion.

I was referencing the news as well...it just seems to follow in the threads
And thankyou for showing a demonstration for us :D
