    We know Zimmerman was armed and following Martin, a minor, in the dark. We know by Zimmerman's own account that Martin ran away which is what people who are afraid are prone to do. We know Zimmerman ignored police dispatch instructions. There's every reason to doubt the account of a stalker, wanna be cop, self appointed watch captain who has had several run ins with the law since killing Martin. There's EVERY reason to doubt his account.

    Delusion thy name is Bobby.

    I can't believe people are still rehashing this, verbatim.

    If you wanna use Zimmerman's supposed wannabe cop mentality against him, surely you must also consider Martin's own less than modest habits as well.

    Yeah but he was just walking home from the store minding his own business. zimmerman created the contact for all we know it may have been self defense but whom was defending there self we only can go off the words of the one who is still alive which maybe lies.

    He might have lied, therefore he must have lied?

    Heh

    There is only one person that knows the truth the case is over lets focus on the now this is the second time that zimmerman has been accused of Domestic violence is it safe to say that he is showing signs of being a bully.

    George Zimmerman is probably not a good/respectable man. Regardless, can the media leave him alone already?

    Since Brown appeared to be aggressive in the store... He must have attacked a police officer who has a gun. Zimmerman likes to attack chicks with bottles... But no way he attacked a kid.

    Spinning logic around like the wheel of fortune... Around and round it goes.

    No, he might have lied and as such, his words should be taken with suspicion. His later run-ins with the law only strengthen the suspicion.

    Plenty of people think he's a murderer, and a lot of people who think he got a bum rap are starting to have second thoughts. Seriously, you would think the guy would be smart enough to quietly fade away, but he keeps finding himself in these situations. If he doesn't cool it, he's going to find himself in jail, which could be a death sentence if he's not kept separate from other inmates.

    I don't think we'd have enough prisons if suspicion alone can jail people.

    that's bs, there was no concrete evidence of what exactly happened during the initial confrontation, or who threw the first punch. There weren't any eye witnesses just people in the area over hearing and guess what might have happened.

    All we know is a fight took place between the two, and Zimmerman got his ass handed to him so he shot Martin. No one knows what words were exchanged, or who started the physical confrontation except for Zimmerman and Martin

    The jurors didn't even agree to a concensus on what happened, some wanted lesser charges, some weren't sure, in the end nothing really fit, but they decided it just wasn't second degree murder.

    Yet some people are 100% convinced that George Zimmerman is a racist Hispanic vigilante with an agenda and planned from the very start to murder future Princeton valedictorian Trayon Martin in cold blood.

    I point out that the only evidence suggests that Martin attacked Zimmerman, you say that's BS, then confirm that the only evidence there is suggests that Martin attacked Zimmerman....odd.

    Where is that evidence coming from? From the testimony of saint Zimmerman the upstanding woman beating, arrest resisting hot head. Yeah there is NO WAY he would lie about who was the aggressor.

    He's the only living person who knew what happened, and his account of things is consistent with the physical evidence. There's no reason to assume that he's lying, obviously he could be, but you can't make that assumption. Any suggestion that something else happened is merely fantasy.

    there was no evidence that Martin Attacked Zimmerman first, there was only evidence that Martin got better of the physical confrontation because he was on top beating Zimmerman's head on the concrete.

    we don't know what instigated the confrontation at all, it's all hearsay, maybe Zimmerman got physical first, maybe Martin thinks Zimmerman is trying to mug him and was defending himself, maybe Martin did throw the first punch, no one knows.

    I'm pretty sure there was an eyewitness of the whole incident that testified that Martin attacked Zimmerman.....that's evidence. That testimony ended up being consistent with the physical evidence found on the scene. Like I said, any suggestion that anything other than Martin assaulting Zimmerman took place is merely fantasy with no evidence whatsoever to support it.

    I'm sorry Bobby but that's a truly ignorant stance. Zimmermann's history and current troubles with the law suggest that he is very capable of losing his cool and making very poor decisions. To say it's a fantasy to suggest he initiated the confrontation says a lot about your ability to be objective. I can only assume you agree with the Casey Anthony verdict and OJ verdict too, because our justice system works to perfection and no one lies under oath huh?
