So what do you think, canam? Do you think Trayvon deserved to be shot? Was Zimmerman justified in following a teenage boy around the neighborhood because he looked suspicious--even after the 911 operator told him not to?
Very few people deserve to be shot, some yes,followed ? absolutley thats what neighborhood watches do, after he was told we dont need you to do that, he walked away, saying ok,then he was attacked by trayvon ,who had assaults on his record as well as evidence of drugs in his backpack and had multiple disciplinary incidents on his record, indicating he was no angel .if your punching me and i feel threatned then i have the right to defend myself by stabbing you or shooting you. innocent !! based on the info i have

We now have video of what Zimmerman looked like when the situation was over and (btw) paramedics had cleaned him up.

This doesn't look like a guy that just had the guacamole beat out of him by a 200+ ibs monster. Granted he PROBABLY DID have a head injury. Probably was showing some blood. Head injuries do bleed a lot. In the video you can see an officer checking Zimmerman's head. However if it was cleaned up easily without him being taken to a hospital I can assure you it wasn't bad. There doesn't seem to be any bandages (Zimmerman claimed he broke his nose, doesn't look like it), no frontal injuries. No blood on clothes, no grass stains on back (even though it might be the camera for that).



This is all really strange...
I've broken my nose with little to no blood. Not saying his was, but a simple cat scan would shine light on if he really had broken nose. Would even show up now.

If found the injuries are not true then this is not looking good for him.

I difference I can imagine is were the two blacks arrested then released with no charges? That's the main outcry with the Martin case. If zimmerman was arrested and charged we might not even know about the case.

I find your post strange. I could not tell anything in that grainy video, and saw no medical examination at all.

SOME head injuries bleed alot - especially cuts, but not all. Concussion, contusions, and fractures very often have little bleeding. Guacamole beating? - I think he prevented that.

I think Caman was referencing the racial aspect... the KC blacks not being charged with a "hate" crime even though they admitted themselves it was a factor.

You would expect THAT and not running or self-defense? REALLY? I think I know you better than that. You would expect your son to either get OUT of that situation ASAP or, if the person got too close, to defend himself by whatever means necessary. Personally, I think you need to carefully consider why you think that Treyvon should have stopped and had a conversation with a strange man who had no authority to stop or detain him whatsoever. Coming from a politically conservative point of view, that fact alone should put you in Treyvon's corner. NO ONE except a police officer or other member of local law enforcement has the right to stop, detain, or use deadly force against my kids--and even law enforcement better have a REALLY good reason to do so. And even with a REALLY good reason, I expect them to use the least amount of force necessary to control the situation.
You're making a lot of speculation as to what you think transpired with and between Zimmerman and Trayvon. It's hard for me to think of Zimmerman being appointed as Neighborhood Watch Captain, by the residents, to act sinister toward Trayvon. We just don't know what happened. And my son has had a gun pointed at his head and he stood there and told the guy to pull the trigger. So, I really doubt he would have been afraid and I know he wouldn't have run away. It's not his nature to be afraid. Are my children over confident? Probably. But, I would rather them be over confident than anything else.

It was in article that video was after receiving medical attention. I would like to know how his attorney can insist he had a broken nose ? Was it diagnosed from doctor or some EMT saying he might have one or just made up. I agree video doesn't really clearly show one way or another.

I don't really know a lot about that case, not big story for media I guess. I did hear of one case where hate crime charge would have carried less time then regular charges, in that case DA recommended to not pursue hate crimes.

Just read this on Twitter - "Once again, I apologize on behalf of Texas for Sheila Jackson-Lee. She's opining about Zimmerman. I'm sorry y'all."
