He had a gun, would you fear or our life when you knew you had a gun on your person?
you do realize that's what guns are for, right? They are for shooting those that are a threat to your life. Merely possessing a gun doesn't automatically grant you this invincibility bubble around yourself. To feel safe with a gun during an attack, you have to actually you know, use it. Otherwise it's just a hunk of metal.
Didn't Trayvon have a right to protect himself? He didn't know Zimmerman from Adm and Zimmerman was stalking him.
Protect himself from what? Sorry but there is zero evidence that zimmerman did anything wrong or illegal. You do not get to hit someone for following you. PERIOD. I find it asinine that someone getting out of a car is apparently in some peoples minds more responsible than the person that actually initiated a fight, used violence, and when told by one witness to stop, ignored that person and persisted in their beating.
You don't bring a gun to a fist fight.
There was no fist fight until trayvon started it. Carrying a weapon is a constitutional right, he is neither morally or legally culpable for carrying. If it were your way, anyone that carried a weapon would be responsible when someone else starts a fight with them.
Facts don't match Zimmerman's story
Every fact matches zimmerman story. Nearly every witness has corroborated his story or at the very least couldn't disprove it. For him to be guilty, zimmerman would have to be a criminal mastermind. He would have to give details and testimony before knowing that people were calling in, before he knew that there would be recordings of the altercation, he would have to lie about his head getting bashed, about trayvon being on top of him and fighting him MMA style, he apparently just lucked out that his description of how he shot trayvon is what the ME has testified to, he apparently also has lucked out that the states own medical witnesses say that the situation is not inconsistent with zimmermans story. Please tell me, how you can make up a lie and have EVERYTHING sync up or not be discounted?
no blood on Trayvon's hands,
when you hit someone they might not instantly bleed. the back of zimmermans head was bloody, and so was his nose. Hitting someone in the face isn't necessarily going to procure instant blood all over your hands. Even more to do with the hands, the ME testified today that after death your blood pressure goes down which prevents bruising on trayvons hands. You also have the rain out there that night.
There have been many witnesses that have testified trayvon was punching zimmerman. Or that he was on top of zimmerman. I guess you think he was just sitting pleasantly on top of zimmerman doing nothing? It was obvious he was punching zimmerman and attacking him and slamming his head.
There was also no blood on zimmermans hands either that I am aware of. So i guess his nose just conveniently imploded by itself?
how can you cover a persons mouth, who has a bloody nose and not get blood on your hands.
you assume he covered his mouth while it was bloody. A statement that O'Mara shot down in two seconds in re-direct today. Especially when zimmerman is lying on his back, a lot of the blood will go back into his throat. There is no evidence,
nor was it stipulated by the defense trayvon covered zimmermans nose when it was bloody,
only at some point in the alteracation.
The fact was he was following Trayvon, with a gun on his person.
immaterial.
