Fair enough. But you would still back away from the assailant.

[which would explain at least part of the 40-foot shift in location]

Since he was getting the street name for the operator I can see why.

Probably a lot of shoving and pushing, trash talking before the fight.

As agitated as Zimmerman was, I don't see him backing down right away.

He's fought with cops before, I doubt he'd be afraid of skinny 17 year old.

When the jury looked at the 40 foot mystery sequence, they probably all agreed to dismiss it from discussion because no "witness" evidence was presented to give them a clue.

Jury don't gotta think 'bout nuthin' but wut's put before 'em.

No I'm for both even though I don't partake in neither.

Growing marijuana would be considered illegal in Florida. Do you have children? If so would you condone this kind of behavior (guns & marijuana).

A "kid" with a pic of a gun would imply violent behaviour????????????

Fist-fight, flash-light - Zimmie had two flashlights!

The larger flashlight made it's way to the death site.

Prosecution didn't mention this, by, for instance, asking the police about why they didn't ask Zimmie about it.

Zimmie told the police investigator that the large one didn't work, so he left it in his vehicle and only took the key-chain flashlight along with him. This, while forgetting he even had his gun with him.

This is why I think the prosecution was working for Obama.

I'm not anti gun or anti pot. Neither is inherently bad.

Lots of members on here allow their kids to handle guns. Are their kids violent??
