(2,899 posts)Zimmerman was NOT chasing after Martin. If that was the case Martin could have out run him easily. Martin doubled around, hid and then attempted to kill Zimmerman. Zimmerman had the right to protect his own life. I would do the same.
Like you I was told that a white man chased a little black child through a gated community and then shot him dead. But unlike you I listened to more facts. We were told the black child was a good student, star athlete and had never been in trouble before. All bullshit.
Zimmerman is Hispanic.
Zimmerman's face and head showed signs of a big fight, so did the evidence on the ground.
Zimmerman was out of shape - did not chased down the youth.
Youth was not star athlete, had been suspended from school and his mother shipped him off to his dad's girlfriend's house.
Youth had a record of fighting, vandalism, pot, guns and stolen goods.
So much more....I have to run but will take you on later.
PS Typing fast and fucked up...So what, nobody died and I've lived a good life. Raised good sons.
