You do realize that your link only goes to the George Zimmerman page on this UK rag... right?
Even so, you (and many others) are choosing to jump over dollars for pennies. You'd prefer to believe the singular, and discredited few, over the many. You want this to be a racial incident, regardless of the truth.
HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS ON THE MATTER. (THIS IS MY VIDEO)
ALSO HERE IS A LINK TO SUPPORT MY CLAIM
I dont know what happend to the thread you had running this morning...but rob you didnt link to the FBI report. You linked news stories.
With the freedom of information act, and news media wanting all the pieces to a story...wouldn't think there should be a copy of that report floating around?
You made the claim that you shot down everyone's claim that this case was not about racial profiling, but when asked to show the report, link the report...you have yet to do so.
Come on Rob. Please don't tell me you based your "evidence" on a news story.
You do realize that her testimony of seeing GZ on top of the body is post gunshot? By all accounts during the actual fight, Martin was pounding Zimmerman. Martin had no abrasions to his head, but plenty on his knuckles. What does this tell a thinking person?
When a cop shoots a suspect the first thing they do is put them face down, knee in the back, and cuff their hands behind them.
It doesn't matter how badly they are hurt, or even if they are dead. This guy died 2 minutes after this image was taken, and he is on his face with his hands cuffed.

This video is just as biased and one sided as anything coming from the "Trayvon was an innocent child" side. No mention of Zimmerman's arrest record, also takes everything Zimmerman's says as honest, as if he'd have no reason to lie.
The video isn't biased, as it backs up the claim with TM's own words on Twitter - looking for Codeine.
The pertinent information to know is that GZ had charges brought, but NO Convictions (2005). He had assault on law enforcement, resisting arrest with violence. Both dropped to resisting arrest without violence and then dropped all together.
On his domestic violence (2005) with Veronica Zuazo, she filed a motion for a Restraining Order and he counter filed. The Orders were mutual and eventually discharged.
George had obtained a lawful Conceal Carry license. That means that he passed BOTH a State and Federal background check. Had he ever been convicted or pled guilty to a felony, he would not have been able to obtain a CHL.
As to his relative (Witness #9) claiming "molestation", that is suspect. O'Mara talked about her trying to sell her story to People Magazine - very suspect. The Judge rejected the calls and the audio tape of her interview because her story was uncorroborated and, therefore, was not admissible.
Also suspect is her comment on George being a racist - "I can't remember anything, but that's just a known thing that that's how his family feels."
The verdict was correct. The SAO could not prove it's case. IMHO, Zimmerman should have done what the dispatcher requested he do. It started a chain of events that resulted in a dead kid and a man's life in ruins.
The dispatcher didn't give him any instructions, only saying "we don't need you to do that", which Zimmerman acknowledged and started back to wait for LE.
Sometime after that, he was accosted and assaulted by the deceased person in question.
