It's been beat to death but I'll say it again. A police dispatcher's opinion isn't gospel nor can you be in trouble for not listening to them....
Y'all should read some of the responses.
Protect himself *iphone
:( If Weeman is getting attacked by Anderson Silva he's good in using deadly force to prevent himself. I'm not saying Martin is an MMA...
Why can't you people get past the "injuries" thing? I can justifiably use deadly force and not have a scratch on me.
You're probably the only one here who gets it, besides me. If you're in fear for your life, which Zim may have been, you can use deadly force....
I'll type real slow for you so you can understand this. Is following someone a reasonable situation where you would feel threatened enough to...
You can't hit someone (legally) because you "feel threatened."
I said I was done with this thread. I am, but I just had one question. How could Zim attacked Martin if he was allegedly "running" from Zim?...
Job security for people like me. I literally chuckled at the $1.49. I wouldn't even take that from someone.
I make no judgement on right or wrong. My position has always centered on the ability to prosecute the case. What can be proven, what can not. You...

I don't call 911 when my life is in danger. I take care of myself. Zim also wasn't in a life or death situation. He wanted the police to come...
I suppose you could just sit back and not pay attention to anything, and let thiefs run amuck. But unlike you, Zim cares about his community and...
I simply pointed out that of course a dispatcher is not going to tell you to do anything because of their liablity. That's their default position....
A dispatcher has vacarious liability in their scope of employment with the department. The dispatcher was not there to see what was going on. The...
With all do respect, that's pretty ignorant of you to say. And I mean that in a nice kind of way. Think of the possibilities. A dispatcher has...
That's exactly what I was thinking. I actually posed the question of why didn't Martin outrun him? I know it wouldn't have been a problem. But...
