No, no, no! Why, when you can't answer a question, do you need to respond with garbage like this?

The post you wrote specifically referred to the lawyer who said he knew Zimmerman had a broken nose. Then you referred to his father. Both of them had not seen George Zimmerman since the shooting on Feb 26. When I pointed his out, you came back with a response that did not address my statement which, by the way, is a fact. Both attorneys who said they represented Zimmerman (before O'Mara took the case) said they only talked to him on the phone and never met him in person. They didn't even know where he was.

His new attorney, Mark O'Mara, has never commented on Zimmerman's injuries at all.

Facts or internet rumors?

Zimmerman does have a history that would lend one to believe that he was a "hothead", but Trayvon Martin doesn't seem to have a violent history. .
Trayvon was doing some kind of drug with the pipe, had someone else's jewelery, a burglary tool and was defacing school property. This is not the sign of a mentally well adjusted kid.

Oh and yeah, if you start at the beginning of these posts and read through them, the links were all posted in this thread.

Why would anyone think differently that he would respect anybody, including that evening. I think I am beginning to see why we have all the 5 yr. old little boy photo's.
Your description sounds much like that of our 43rd POTUS

If the person does get close do what you have to do protect yourself. Zimmerman could have been a serial killer for all TM knew.

Looking at his mugshot, that would be my first thought.

His new attorney, Mark O'Mara, has never commented on Zimmerman's injuries at all. Facts or internet rumors?
Appearing on NBC's TODAY on Thursday, Zimmerman's attorney Craig Sonner described the video as "very grainy." He also pointed out that Zimmerman had been "cleaned-up" and received first aid in the four hours between the incident and Zimmerman's videotaped arrival at the police station.
Sonner has previously said that his client suffered a broken nose and a gash to his head during the altercation.

I don't know which of the 3-4 this Sonner is.

So that is why he ran away and then came back?
Huh, wait a minute...

Determining Zimmerman's motives is not necessary.

Would be a BIG mistake to bring that up if it weren't the case.

You also see the head injuries to the back of the head in the modified videos and Paramedics did clean GZ up.

You have GZ on his back defending when the gun was used.

Hey, if you want to make believe TM was riding three wheeled bike, was the 12 year old in the photos and that he could not have possibly been involved because he was this angel, then do so.
That first lawyer quit. GZ's father may have been parroting what the lawyer said w/o knowing any better. He wasn't at the scene.

"Modified" being the key word, sort of like youtube.
