You're correct. But, he said he had never heard of it. Really? And, people actually believe this lying child killer?

If they were not convinced of his innocence they should not have been on the Jury. As far as they are concerned he IS innocence until that state proves him guilty

Details no, but if the battle was discussed in class and you were a good student, I'd expect that you would know that it happened. Stand your ground isn't rocket science.

He is a liar no question about it. But he killed no child.

Was Martin wearing high heels? No wonder he could not outrun Z.

People have been convicted with less evidence. You never know what a jury is going to do.

Two weeks prior to being shot, TM was 16 years old. You're right, I guess that makes him an adult.

I consider my soon to be 17-year-old my child. He's not a little boy anymore but that is my still my child, my oldest baby boy. Every mother knows what I mean. Everyone who followed the trial knows how old Trayvon Martin was when Zimmerman took his life.

Have you ever been mugged, robbed at gunpoint, or simply accosted by a stranger in the dark? I'm just curious. I'm sure I can draw a perfect line down the middle as to those who've been in similar situations and those who have not and where each side falls on this argument.
