He’ll never learn to keep his mouth shut. He’s lucky he’s not locked up and should be thankful for that.

The only thing that bothered me about the situation was that when he called 911, he was told to not get out and go follow the person, which he did and well, by all accounts he was standing his ground, but I think the way he handled the situation was the problem within itself.



Why do you retards keep repeating this lie? He was NEVER told to not get out and follow. He was ALREADY out of his vehicle, the dispatcher told him he didn't need to look for Trayvon, he complied, and was attacked on his way back to his truck. Amazing after all of these years you morons still can't get the facts straight in this case and keep repeating the media's grossly out-of-context narrative.

He’s a POS for the domestic shite, but with all the shite he went through after legally defending himself from that thug, it’s almost hard to blame him for acting out against famous, influential racists like Jay z and Beyoncé paiting his attacker as a martyr.

All accounts he was a good man until every liberal loon in the country rained down upon him when he had the audacity to defend his life against a thug.

The dude was a teenager.. Not sure if he was a bad kid.. It seemed like he might have been an average teenager, who might have done some stupid teenage shite. By no means does that mean he deserved to die.

frick all the race bullshite, he had a mother and father who lost a son.

If doing stupid shite as a teenager, maybe even criminal but just lucky enough to not get caught is a reason it's okay for someone to be dead, then me and half this board should be dead.

Are you a mother? I know you are female, which doesn't matter if you don't have kids, but I would think you could at least empathize with that.

First of all, nobody is worthless. More importantly, dangerous would be a better description. He's got head issues.

Go attack someone, try to take them to the ground and keep punching them. You will absolutely deserve the family of bullets you get to the chest. That wasn't just stupid shite, people have been killed by such actions. A soccer referee was punched by a teenage player and died: LINK Where's your empathy for that family? Moron...

Since when do dispatchers have the ability to issue lawful orders? What a call taker told him to do has almost zero relevance.

bullshite....I still believe he had a duty to retreat, He was under no threat in that situation. His actions set in motion a series of events that led to Martin's death.

He should have been tried for manslaughter and i believe they would have got a conviction. Zimmerman bears responsibility for Martin's death by his aggressive actions.

While I get caught up in "keeping it simple" by saying "he is worthless", etc, etc.. You are pretty much dead on. And this is the case with a lot of people.

The whole situation became a big race deal, but initially, I do not think that was anyone's plan. The parents of TM was dealing with a dead child, I would never understand what that is like unless it is something I would experience.

I can't speak for people, but I would imagine anyone with a teenage child who, god forbid, was involved in some unexpected situation in which they ended up dead, they would be willing to do whatever it takes to get answers. As the situation built up steam, like any news story, there are people who get involved for their self gain/interest.

People saw that as a story to further their agenda, etc..But back to GZ. He is obviously not stable. I remember seeing the log of 911 calls he had made over months, before the TM situation. He was always calling 911. He called 911 once to complain about kids riding their bike in the street. If it was on a busy street or something I could understand, but these were kids riding bikes in road at the apartments they lived in. He seems like someone who looks for situations to put himself in..

He was attacked by Trayvon who was just feet from the front door of his father's house. Trayvon double backed a considerable distance to confront GZ. Trayvon lead to his own death out of stupidity.

The incident taught me that I can't beat up someone just because he is following me. That kind of information is priceless.

If I was just minding my own business and suddenly I noticed some dude following me. My defense is going up. We have no idea what happened between the point GZ got out of his vehicle to go follow TM and the point people heard the two fighting outside.

People always say, if you shoot, you better always shoot to kill. TM might have been protecting himself.. but instead of a gun, he used the closest thing he could access, a cement brick. GZ could have said anything to him, that made him feel in danger. Then again, he might have not said anything. But the result of whatever happened, ended up in a man in his what? Upper 20s? fighting a 17 year old. And when people fight, they don't try to use something to inflict real pain, unless they feel threatened.

Zimmerman isn't a hero.

But he did nothing wrong, and isn't a villain either.

And Martin wasn't a fricking angel.
