Good for Zimmerman! Helping those in need. Goes along with his standup values of trying to protect his neighborhood from thugs.
Again. You overlook Zimmerman's arrest record while wildly speculating about Trayvon's intentions with little or no evidence. You do realize that you're exhibiting the pattern of a racist?

We all know these 2 were no angels. We KNOW. Denial, deflection, race games won't change that.

I'm not going to get my panties in a twist when those who play with fire get burned.

I don't know about Florida law, but in Texas you can be tried as an adult at 17.

I'm looking this from the perspective of a law-abiding person who hates it when the actions of others disrupt my life as well. It stems from the fact that I grew up black in the suburbs and have been profiled all of my life. Now I have to worry about idiot armed vigilantes who can't tell me apart from a gang member. And no, I don't sag my pants, I have a Masters degree, and I don't have an arrest record.

Please, I was just pointing out what you said was a fabrication of your imagination. It's conclusions like that lead people with poor impulse control into situations out of their control in which they were completely in the wrong to begin with.

Zimmerman always reminded me of a three year old who is told by his father "don't go on the road" - and the infant just keeps on going and gets hit by a car...but instead of him dying - his immaturity and inability to take directions led to the death of another. That is what will always stick with people...these three words.."Do not follow"...he could not even do that. I remember my youngest son at the age of 2 sitting with my mother by an old wood stove...and she said to him..."Do not touch the stove- you will get burned" and he replied "But I want too" - That is Zimmerman in a nut shell.

Remember all the folks screaming about Richard Jewell after the Olympic bombings "playing hero" as they castigated him? I guess they didn't learn their lesson. Amazing how the "mob" has no sense whatsoever....

You can be tried as an adult. That still doesn't mean you are one. Can you join the army? Buy cigarettes? No. Besides Martin committed no crime so this isn't applicable.
