thoughts on the Trayvon murder

Zimmerman's dad is a retired judge from Florida...

But what would you do if you were walking through a neighborhood at night and some guy stuck a gun in your face and asked you what you were doing there?

I think I confused you with this question. It was exactly what I asked. It was not a statement that Zimmerman stuck a gun in Martin's face.

Too bad Martin wasn't carrying as well. He could have stood his ground and maybe it would have been Zimmerman who got carried off in a body bag.

You've got to be kidding me. It's a rather low resolution video taken from a distance. And the dumb ABC logo grays out most of what detail is left. How can you tell anything detailed from that video? At least it shows the police did cuff him and bring him in for questioning.

That video doesn't show that Zimmerman has a belly button either. I'm surprised that wasn't in the headline as well [sarcastic].

Look, I'm very open to seeing all the evidence, but can you really see any detail in his nose or the back of his head in that video?

Here's one without the logo. You can clearly see that there is no blood on the front of his clothes and the police are not wearing gloves because of the biohazard. SOP. Hopefully, there's a medical report with photos to show that he was injured, because if there's not, that a problem for Zimmerman.

It was a statement, and I challenged you before on it. You edited off the part right after where you said Zimmerman was chasing Martin which was also a clear statement. Keep editing...

So, you hate Hispanics and wish them dead. What a piece of work. Barf.

Did I miss the link? I'll view it.

Gee, jump to conclusions much?

Where did you possibly get that sentiment from what I posted?? If Martin had been armed he might have had a fighting chance to protect himself and stand HIS ground and the outcome might have been different. Is that clear enough for you?

I believe everyone should be armed, don't you?

The video was on TV tonight.......it was clearly evident that there was no blood on Zimmerman, if he had a head wound it wasn't evident and no blood was seen, you could clearly see his face, if he was punched in the nose it wasn't hard enough to bruise him. Couple that with the funeral director saying there was no indication on Martin's body that he had engaged in a fight.....no marks on his hands, no bruising. I think Mr Zimmerman has some 'splaining to do.
