you may think its his fault, but legally i believe he can defend himself if he is physically assaulted.

O, maybe, I am not a lawyer. Do you agree with the fact they charged him finally? or you think everything was fine like it was

So you have one guy with a gun and a history of checking up on people and one guy walking home from the store with no history of attacking people (unless I missed this) and you think it was the kid walking home that attacked first?

That doesn't seem very logical.

i have no problem with him being charged, i dont know all the facts of the case that the prosecuters office had access to. i just hope he gets a fair trial and the right decision is made.

he has a history of calling 911 on people, im not aware of a history of attacking people. i think someone posted that he called 911 46 times in some timeframe, but he didnt attack those people. why would he start now?

i think something was posted on one of Martin's social media sites that he swung on a bus driver. i can understand why someone in his situation would want to attack someone following him. so its not hard for me to believe he attacked.

i just dont understand how if he was being attacked he had time pull out his gun while he is being attacked and to shoot him but couldn't physically fight back with his fists, and scream the whole time "help" if treyvon was attacking him. and this zimmerman looked like he was alot bigger than treyvon. to me it does not matter black or white,would you want this happening to one of your loved ones and nothing be done about it.

You would be surprised how many people on this board think you can.

I could just imagine last time walking through my neighborhood some bum asked me what I was doing in that neighborhood. Instead of keep on walking I should have just punched him in the face. Don't ask me questions, bro.

Cuz he finally snapped? Normal people don't try to be cops so hard and don't call 911 so many times for bulsht reasons.

I thought Zimmerman assaulted a cop or something like that. Maybe I got that mixed up.

In my book if you walk around with a gun and you aren't a police officer or transporting money, you are looking for a fight.

i believe there was an incident where his friend was being arrested and he pushed a cop.

i dont share that anti-gun view, i think carrying a weapon is important for being able to defend yourself from people who would do you harm. i wish nj allowed carry licenses. i would have one and id always carry it and id never be looking for a fight or carrying a large sum of money.
