Looks like Zimmerman supporters need to be making BIG DONATIONS right away!

His attorneys say they haven't been paid a cent, many interns are working for free, AND they still need money to pay EXPERTS as well as to pay for TRANSCRIPTS of depositions!! If you're two weeks away from trial and you have still not ordered or paid for transcripts of depositions you've taken, nor do you have money to pay experts to prepare reports and testify, you're in deep trouble. Court Reporters will not prepare transcripts without being paid, and I don't know many experts willing to work for free.

So you guys really need to get your money to Zimmerman IMMEDIATELY. Oh, yes. Zimmerman's fund had $315,000 in it in January, yet attorneys have not been paid, they have interns working for free, and say they don't have the money to pay for transcripts and experts. WHERE did all that money go????

Think about it a minute, why would you give somebody who's already hyper something that'd make him more hyper? You wouldn't.
As for the other meds, all meds have side effects, some of them deadly or mind altering. Ever see the labels on cold meds that say "don't drive or operate machinery"?
Just because side effects are listed doesn't mean they're common or that he suffered from them. The list is long to cover the legal butt of the drug company and full of almost non-existant effects usually.
Wasn't Georgie-boy on Adderall. It's a combination of a couple different kinds of speed.

Your point? Other than being insulting nothing you're inferring negates what I said.

Oh, yes it does negate what you said! You said one wouldn't prescribe stimulants for ADD. These meds are stimulants for the central nervous system. Do read the link.

The combination of dextroamphetamine and amphetamine is used as part of a treatment program to control symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD; more difficulty focusing, controlling actions, and remaining still or quiet than other people who are the same age) in adults and children. Dextroamphetamine and amphetamine tablets are also used to treat narcolepsy (a sleep disorder that causes excessive daytime sleepiness and sudden attacks of sleep). The combination of dextroamphetamine and amphetamine is in a class of medications called central nervous system stimulants. It works by changing the amounts of certain natural substances in the brain.

Who'd I insult? George made himself a pubic figure when he pulled the trigger.

Yep, $315k is a lot of money to go thru in 5 months. Especially since apparently none of it has been spent on his defense. Looks like the state of Florida may have to pay his legal bills. Or at least some of it (until he hits their cap).

Hostess Brands (maker of Twinkies) is back in business. Given his huge weight gain lately, maybe he has been chomping down on them enough to keep them profitable in that part of Florida?

His attorneys ain't stupid, they must figure on profiting one way or the other.

Are you saying the the opposite effect of speed for someone who is mentally speeded is WEIGHT GAIN?

Speed doesn't make anyone fat - twinkies do!

Skittles and Arizona Ice Tea should sponsor this trial given all the free press they've gotten.

Ok, is anything that zimmerman says is really that creditable since he has been caught lying on more than one occasion, besides looking at the cuts on his head that are minor for someone to be "slamming against the concrete" especially if Trayvon was on top of him. If this was on concrete how do you explain the grass stains or was his head on the concrete and the rest of his body on grass?
He was not following him. He never followed him. He got out of his truck once, but returned (or was returning - it's not clear) on the advice of the dispatcher. This is on the cell phone record. He had already phoned the police and was waiting on their arrival. He had also just reported that "He ran," indicating that Martin was not in his sight.
I guess that his truck was parked between two buildings, because that is were they found Trayvon's body, so how can he not had followed Trayvon?
