So yes, I am against abuse of police power.
If I put I was black in a police report would that make me black?

I'm sure Trayvon never knew what hit him.

Anyone know what type of weapon Zimmerman was carrying?
it's in the report you claim to have read.

For days you were going on and on about other making assumptions, and now you are making a rather big one.
I'm not making an assumption, I'm basing my statements on facts and statements from Zimmerman. He was there, I believe what he has to say since he was the victim in this case.

Looks like the riots start monday..............

Because thousands of people are expected for a huge community meeting on the Trayvon Martin case Monday evening, preparations are well underway to deal with the large crowds of people.[LEFT]

Try to keep up.

I'm asking him why he believes the words of Zimmerman at face value. He believes things happened that way simply because he said so. Well a lot of people have said "this is what happened" in the past and we later found out they drowned their kids, buried them in the back yard and killed their pregnant wives.

But I bet people believed them too...just because they said so.

(An attempt to build a claim of self defense for authorities who will presumably investigate the case)

* Zimmerman has already followed Martin for some distance and is attempting to engage him directly - against the advice of 911 dispatcher.

* Zimmerman proceeds to take a loaded firearm and confront Martin directly

* Zimmerman gets into an altercation of some kind. Many say it's Martin's voice crying for help, but suppose it's not. Maybe it is indeed Zimmerman "crying for help". Maybe Zimmerman is "scared". Maybe Zimmerman "fears for his life"

* Zimmerman then proceeds to kill Tayron Martin.
And all of this was masterminded by the "nimrod, mental midget" that you guys have been attacking for days now?

I see much more than just reasonable doubt.

Right again.

FL is a very weird state.

For example if a child drowns in a pool in FL unless drugs are found in the home no charges are ever filed.

There are a lot of children drowing in pools in FL. I don't believe they're all accidental.

No one is ever charged with negligence, it's always a "tragic accident".

People know this, so as horrible as it sounds if you want to get rid of a child, you can let them wonder into the pool.
