So you stand for assaulting those you feel are ignorant bigots? How does that make you any better than the people you want to assault?

Recognized or not, what makes you think it would only be here that he would get into trouble? He is the one who starts everything that happens, having had several mug shots, besides other incidents, because he has unresolved mental issues.

You guys are not getting it... he was not innocent, just deemed "innocent" at the trial. He might have been able to be "free" from going to prison, but he will never be free, have a good life or live in peace (Karma). Now, if he just could have gone where he should have gone, he would not keep surfacing like this. This will continue.

OH, and he is guilty as sin of flat out attacking and killing TM, no matter what he claimed, no matter what was decided and no matter what some believe.

Are you trying to rehash the TM case? Granted, you are free to have your opinion...

Zimmerman may be a troublemaker in his personal life, but he has the right to defend himself if he's getting his head bashed on the sidewalk. But of course, bullying is the answer to everything these days, just like how Twitter bullied the Zimmerman juror from getting a book deal about her experience.

That is exactly how we see it too. Zimmerman started it with Martin. Appears that is his MO. He starts this stuff, can't handle the results, and, in this case, called 911 to send out 3 or 4 cops. What a wuss.

QUOTE=desertdetroiter;45018910]LMAO...not really, although I understand your sentiments.

He was found not guilty, and folks should respect the verdict. We don't wanna advocate chaos.

But at the same time, I don't wanna hear him bragging about it. Lots of us feel like he was losing a fair fight against an unarmed opponent when he pulled the gun, and we don't respect that whatsoever.

That said, by Florida law, you're allowed to shoot someone in a fair fight even if you started it .....when you're losing the fight. It's a weak move, but it is lawful.

And that's just the way it is.[/quote]

Some eye witnesses in the Orlando Sentinel article have a different story than Zimmerman.

Obviously he couldn't.

And another body is the last thing he needs. He can't afford it. Hell, he wishes like hell that he'd never caught the first body, but he can't take it back.

How it started is unknown and will always be unknown.

I would bet - and not the only one feeling this - that he made those wounds himself. After he hotheadedly reacted as he did, he wasn't wanting to go back to prison for pete's sake...and had to think fast to come up with his big story. That is what he told as the likely scenario and many bought it. He altered aspects of the story a few times and as known, there is a LOT to corroborate his having created his wounds. Besides there having been questionable evidence on he or Martin and how Martin's body was left...or ..so much else.. then, he got off.

But some don't want it rehashed... so, shhhhh...

It's been rehashed to death. A jury of his peers has decided. No one will ever know what happened so people like you will think their biased opinion is the truth.


The fact is reasonable doubt was definitely there. The case should never have gone to trial.
