He did not go to a hospital from what I hear. Imagine a head injury and a broken nose and no x-rays...or anything. Am I mistaken or does a broken now need to be set or not? Guess it depends on the extent of the injury, but doesn't a doctor need to determine that?
A job besides his Dirty Harry impersonation gig, aka Neighborhood Gestapo? A Neighborhood watch does not usually feature an armed gunman, especially in a hood w/o violent crime, pre Zimmerman.
Exactly. This 28 year old "man" called the police what over 100 times in a year? He had nothing better to do than be "neighborhood watchman" for a house he did not own?
He wasn't the homeowner. So wtf was he even involved with the watch? His 28 year old lazy ass was at home doing a bunch of nothing.
Why is this key fact not being brought up?
We both know why. If Trayvon had been an unemployed 22 year old, folks would be saying that if he had a job he wouldn't have been outside to get shot. They would also question where he got the money to buy the Skittles and iced tea!

Well did the EMS examine him on the scene? If so there would be a record of his "injuries". Apparently they were not that bad. I don't dispute he probably got socked in the nose. If I had a strange guy following me at night and asking me what I am doing here, I'd sock him too.
No she's right and she's also a doctor. I think she can discuss reasonable common sense and debate you on any medical attention.
Yes, because a doctor who has never actually SEEN a patient and/or their condition is credible. Perhaps, she can tell me about this mole I have growing?
You don't just arrest someone and then investigate in this country. It's the other way around. The police have been investigating since day 1 just because you don't like the result does not mean they have not been investigating.
I've watched an interview with the new state's attorney and it's readily apparent they simply do not have enough evidence to charge this man. If they don't charge him by April 10, the grand jury date, you can infer the state's case is very weak. He may be indicted but the state will either offer him a favorable plea deal or Zimmerman will take his pretty good chances at trial. As it stands now there is nothing that has been out in the media that would convict this man of a crime, nothing.
How is there nothing in the media that would convict this man of a crime? He shot and killed an unarmed man. In Payson Arizona a few years ago an elderly man was hiking in the woods. A homeless man's dog came after the elderly hiker. Apparently the homeless man charged after the elderly hiker in fear that he was going to harm his dog. The elderly hiker pulled out a gun and shot the homeless man in the chest and killed him. The hiker was arrested and convicted of manslaughter. You cannot shoot people if you are able to protect yourself in other ways. Self-defense implies reasonable action. It is not reasonable to shoot someone in the chest for kicking your ass.
I don't know the full details of the police report. It includes not just Zimmerman's statements (which could be false), but also testimony from witnesses.
Please learn the difference.
LMAO. You insinuated it was a LIE! Post your facts darling! Time to try and climb out! If you don't know the contents of the report, try reading some recent news if you're not too scared to.

Reason: language
I never called Zimmerman a victim. I called him an idiot.
Stop your ridiculous out-of-context comments.
You are coming from the position of a woman. As a female, I would do the same.
Not ONE man has come forward to say that they would run and/or scream for help if they were being followed by a man. Not one.
