We'll never get the truth from a liar.

Sorry for the 'porky pig', but that's what I think whenever I see zimmerman's face. Actually, the real Porky Pig had more 'animation' (pun not intended) in his face than zimmerman ever exhibited since the killing.
Yes, that's it, Martin saw the gun and tried to run away, BACKWARDS..! Makes perfect sense...

Nothing excuses aggression towards a retreating/surrendering victim, whether you initially started the fight is not relevant.

I'd say it's a very important exception which you all omitted from your arguments. The most likely layman's interpretation of your statements is not supported by the facts.

That's why I have given up trying to respond to the people who will never see facts if they are thrown in a deep pit with them and need to understand them before they can get out.

The photos of Trayvon that came from his own cell phone are just as bad as the one photo that MM posted incorrectly then removed.

When I see or hear someone talk about Zimmerman shooting Trayvon in the back I just ignore anything they come up with after that.

I would think any normal person would also. That is why I always tell my kids to observe what is going on around you as they are walking around talking on their cell phones.

No idea I haven't seen the ones from Trayvon's cell phone, neither will the jurors. The only reason angry witch with a B removed it was she was caught in her deviousness.

Brutal head beating? Teeth knocked out, lips busted, cheek bones smashed, nose destroyed, cuts all over. Blood everywhere. As a starter. And it can get worse. When someone claims to be beaten severely in the head, thats what I expect to happen. Zimmerman didn't even go to the doctor. Nor to the hospital. Martin had one small cut on a finger. No more. No real fight/beating here.
The real question here is, Has George Zimmerman ever been beaten this bad before such that he would have a frame of reference as to its severity. Probably not, therefore he most likely thought it could be the first and maybe last beating he might ever receive. It's not for you or me to decide. It's for GZ to decide if it warrants lethal force to stop it.

If the prosecution feels they can or need to impeach this part of the testimony, all they would have to do is take the clothing back to the scene with the same darkness, and weather conditions and take pictures. have they done that? Maybe they know better than to try.
