I challenge that, on purely intellectual grounds. You think the po po can find a 17 year old kid, after dark, in the rain?

Z wanted to make sure they did.

I suppose leaving his bullet riddled corpse lying in the gutter achieved that end. Hey, with that logic, I guess you could even argue that it works as crime prevention! Since thats one kid who sure ain't gunna shoplift no more!

It must be hard for Mr Zimmerman's family, knowing they have a murderer amongst them. Chilling too, I bet. I wouldn't say there's just cause for stalking an unarmed teenager and shooting them, though. Seems more like evil intentions.

Strange too, seeing as how Zimmerman tutored black kids and even protested the beating of a black man by some white youths.

If these 2 were squaring off, Z would not land the first blow. He would have to be an incredible boxer to block everything M could unleash on him. Even if he did, his better strategy would be to resign himself to taking the first blow, close the distance, and overpower M.
The coroner said there were no marks on Martin's hands or knuckles. He wound up face down on the ground, dead.

And John Wayne Gacy used to dress up as a clown for charity events and childrens' parties.

You've tried him before the courts have. Well done.

So, if you were there and saw Zimmerman murder Martin, why didn't you try to stop him? And why haven't the prosecutors contacted you to testify?

Supreme is a little far away to be a juror. ;)

I realize. I get it that innocent until proven guilty is an American thing, too.

Doesn't change the fact that he's tried Zimmerman and already calling him a murderer.

Zimmerman had a cause? What about Marin?

When you care for Zimmerman, do you care for Martin?

Who is in self defense? A man with a gun and actively provocated a search, or a man without weapon on his way home?

In this case, a killer said he killed for self defense. That opened the door to bandit to rob people without any risk. If he failed, he could kill the victim then claim he is self defense. That is the point.


But should a law help the weaker side for the justice?

If we start there, you could be correct. Fortunately, that is not where we start. Where we start is with the presumption of innocence. Had Trayvon killed George, we would start there with him also. The presumption of innocence is afforded to the accused not necessarily the "weaker side".

Can one honestly presume Z innocent without necessarily presumin M guilty?
