Pretty solid analogy. Using the N Word isn't illegal per se, but it's clear as day you are the instigator of the situation and are asking for a...
Spirit of the law vs. literal interpretation of it is what this boils down to. The spirit of Self-Defense law is not to bait and harass someone...
Some of the witnesses testified to seeing wrestling and grappling between GZ and TM. Jeantel also testified that she believed GZ pushed TM....
Zimmerman made more than just 1 big mistake. He made several conscious and completely voluntarily negligent decisions that were clearly...
A classic self-defense pattern is when an armed intruder breaks into your home and you shoot them. There's nothing classic about instigating...
Zimmerman obviously didn't have faith that the police would get there in time as evidenced by his "they always get away" comment. This is...
As usual, you are spouting blatant BS. The prosecution DID indeed mention the lack of logic inherent in initiating an assault while on the...
I think the problem is you assume Trayvon was running to get home instead of assuming he was running simply to get out of Zimmerman's view....
I believe it was GZ screaming. I've listened to a tape of TM's voice on the internet (google it) and to me the screaming voice sounds more like...
You don't have to be brilliant to realize that it's logistically harder to assault someone WHILE you are on your cell phone, now do you?...

Since there no eyewitnesses to the entire incident and the one witness who wasn't on trial for his life was killed, obviously this is something...
She didn't. It was mentioned on the interview in which she suggested Trayvon threw the first punch. See Basso's link. Please explain...
You know that Zimmerman's recorded comments to the police were also that he didn't think the voice in the background sounded like him right?
She also thinks Zimmerman tried to illegally detain Trayvon. If true, that would negate his self-defense claim since he was engaged in an...
Great article. Clearly a very different set of facts. Her intent was clearly more malicious than GZ's in the TM case. How insane is it...
Even Newt Gingrich, about as right wing a conservative as you can find, conceded there are inherent and significant biases against colored...
No, I refuted a false statement with a fact. I never painted a picture of Zimmerman as a racist. You say that the biggest tragedy of this...
