If he was within his rights to follow Trayvon because he deemed him suspicious, than Trayvon was also within his rights to follow Zimmerman who he deemed suspicious. Don't you agree?
Certainly. But what would Trayvon's motives have been and why didn't he call the police if his goal was to keep an eye on the creepy-assed cracker so that he could help locate him when the police arrived? Did the allegedly inept prosecution fail to present Trayvon's call to the police?
You and me are struggling close quarters, I pull a gun from my waistband. How much time do I have to aim before you knock the gun out of the way, or take it from me? There is no aiming in close quarter struggling. I teach people to fire at center of mass IF they have time.
Zimmie testified that he aimed. Do we not believe him now?

Please take this to the boxing forum and quit hijacking this one!
A general question to those accusing TM supporters of being "racist" or race baiting. How is anybody race baiting? He was profiled, it's plain and simple as that. I bet you believe people who believed what happened to Emmet Till was wrong are race baiters as well.
What I find even more appalling is that people try to act like these problems don't exist and therefore they never get addressed. It doesn't help anybody.
Also, and I'm not naming names, but those of you who do hold racist beliefs, just come on out and say it. You have a right to hold whatever beliefs you want. I respect the KKK more than I do a lot of the passive-aggressive chicken s*** posters I've encountered in this thread. At least they're honest about their beliefs. Get down to the heart of it and stop using other scape goat, misinformed arguments.
Your obsession with Emmet Till is unhealthy.
The more people use Emmet Till as the reason for today's racial divide, the less credible they become.
Here's a clue: Idiots like 0bama, Frederica, Hank, Al, etc, are largely responsible for current racial division.

Didn't watch the trial or see any evidence, did you! The reason you aren't getting answers is because your theory is just plain wrong, as in inaccurate wrong. Everything you say is wrong.
Only after you detail any arrests, charges or convictions for Trayvon Martin.
But on the other hand, here ya go:
The three incidents took place in Orange County, Fla.
In 2005, Zimmerman, then 20, was arrested and charged with “resisting officer with violence” and “battery of law enforcement officer,” both which are third-degree felonies. The charge was reduced to “resisting officer without violence” and then waived when he entered an alcohol education program. Contemporaneous accounts indicate he shoved an officer who was questioning a friend for alleged underage drinking at an Orange County bar.
In August 2005, Zimmerman’s ex-fiancee, Veronica Zuazo, filed a civil motion for a restraining order alleging domestic violence. Zimmerman counterfiled for a restraining order against Zuazo. The competing claims were resolved with both restraining orders being granted.
Witness No. 9 (his cousin) accused Zimmerman of molesting her when they were children. What most folks don’t know is that Witness No. 9 made an explosive allegation against her cousin. “I know George. And I know that he does not like black people,” she told a Sanford police officer during a telephone call in which she pleaded for anonymity. “He would start something. He’s a very confrontational person. It’s in his blood. Let’s just say that. I don’t want this poor kid and his family to just be overlooked.” At the end of the call, Witness No. 9 urged the officer to “get character reports from other people and see if he’s ever said anything about black people, about being racist or anything like that because I guarantee you there’s somebody out there who will say it.”That phone call was significant because it was placed two days after Zimmerman killed Trayvon and a couple of weeks before the case drew national attention. Witness No. 9 wasn’t seeking attention. “I’m a mom,” she told police. “I can’t stand seeing that some kid got shot and killed over a stupid fight, especially one that my [redacted] … because I know who he is.”
Much more worthwhile than donating to Zimmerman's defense/$12,000 a month living expense fund.
Ill gladly donate a few bucks to someone who will need security to defend against ravaging liberals. Much more worthy cause than a stupid, racist witch hunt.
