I would use a lil stronger term...but rules forbid using it.

He is not naive nor objective. He knows what point he wants to get across.

What's wrong? Do YOU need the definition for naiveté?

But, a 250lb fat mess of a man doesn't chase down a 150lb football player into the corner to shoot him at point blank range.

I suspect at the point it escalated, Trayvon engaged him.
That's your conclusion. That's your conjecture.

A conjecture is a proposition that is unproven but is thought to be true and has not been disproven.

And??? Would you like to argue semantics?

One statement...and based out of complete sound logic

Find me one person who disagrees, even yourself, that a 250 lb, overweight and out of shape man can chase down a 150 pound high school athlete...

And I still closed my statement inconclusively....

"thought to be true" is CONCLUDING!!

I didn't conclude that the scenario presented was in fact what I believe to have happened....ever....at any point...

I suspect that NFL linebackers weigh more than 250 pounds and could run down a 150 pound teenager as well. What does him being fat and having a gun and firing at a kid at point blank range have to do with anything?
