I am actually surprised so many people are still defending Zimmerman, but yet it's predictable.

Zimmerman is an absolute POS. He molested his own niece who was a child, he punched his own gf's father in the face, he has had multiple road rage incidents brandishing his gun, and he got in a fight with an off duty cop. Then he publicly taunted Martin even after death. Just no reason to do that if it was true self defense. Zimmerman was and has always been an instigator.

I think the whole idea of Martin "fricking around and finding out." could not be further from the truth. Martin was trying to get away from an aggressive man (his entire history shows him to be this) with an agenda who was not authority and told to stand down. I don't fault Martin for running away from a creep in the dark. I would have done the same at that age. I also don't fault him if he tried to defend himself from this guy by fighting him.

Zimmerman always hides behind his gun. All of his actions prove this. So he instigated a fight he knew he could always easily end, because he's a pussy and piece of shite. However, everyone on here just wants to point out Martin has gang sign photos and that somehow justifies Zimmerman. Feel as you wish with Martin, but Zimmerman is a horrible person who shouldn't have resorted to this.

You obviously know very little about what actually transpired which makes me doubt the validity of anything else you've said.

I haven't followed GZ's story since. But my understanding is he was trying to do a noble thing, neighborhood watch, when this happened.

And in the aftermath, not many came to his defense. It was ALL his fault. I suspect that adds a new level of stress to someone's.

If you want to channel your anger, aim it at Crump. He's a fraud.

Martin had Zim on the ground, pounding his head onto the concrete sidewalk.

It don't matter what kind of person Zim was, he was defending his life.

If Martin would have killed Zim, it would have briefly made mention in the newspaper and that would have been it.

whatever happened with the prosecution lying and putting up a fake girlfriend to testify?



I didn’t really pay much attention to it, was the girlfriend fake?

I have a friend that has had to sit across the table from Crump in these situations more than once as a guy that insures public entities. He doesn’t have kind words for him.

His main thing is that he shows up to throw race fire bombs, get his check, and leave town.

How was he acting suspicious? I don't remember reading anything about the way he was acting?

If you were walking home and you noticed someone following you then that person gets out of their vehicle to follow you on foot would you not be in defense mode?

This is the epitome of the problem with today's world.

Way too much commenting and not nearly enough research.
