Wake up, Florida didn't convict Casey Anthony, and they won't convict this guy either.


There's just as much evidence that he was the aggressor. Just like he has been many times in his life.


The point is, there is a good chance the jury won't be able to conclude that Zimmerman was the aggressor beyond reasonable doubt. I don't think anyone really knows what happened, people just think they know. Given that with his injuries to the back of the head, I definitely can't see a jury convicting him of murder.

That said, if Zimmerman gets caught in a lie, any lie, anything could happen at that point.

He's already been caught in a lie. He changed his story on how old he thought Trayvon was.

What are we all going to do? ... I dunno ... Eat dinner, read for a bit, and go to bed?
Although I'd say that a dead unarmed teenager with Zimmerman's bullet in him might be a small but important piece of evidence that you're forgetting about.

Really? This is why? :? I thought this was a good reason why NOT to shoot to kill. Unless you are implying that it is the best case for Zimmerman to get away with murder. This is the worst example for that training. (although I do agree with that training method), but it surely doesnt apply here.

And for the record, I think everyone knew what gointoverone meant when they said "clip". But I'm glad you can, again, prove your exemplary knowledge of firearm terminology. Everybody got that? It's magazine, not Clip! no more screw ups please! we'll all be so confused!

not what I ment but just cause he's dead does not mean he was "good guy" and Zimmerman was "bad guy"..you people think you have it all figured out with knowing who or what Trayvon or Zimmerman are ?
or for that matter all the facts of what happened, lets just wait and see what happens.

You're right. His past actions, arrests and statements paint him as a bad guy.

the dirt on Trayvon wassn't so good also but I'm sure there will be things in court that come out that will not be very good for T. or Z, my thought is just wait till we get the straight scoop from the ......media , :mrgreen:
