Though not familiar with Florida law, I'm intimately familiar with CA criminal law.

Once deadly force occurs, "who started it" is criminally irrelevant. The party utilizing deadly force merely needs to support the assertion that they were reasonably in fear of losing their life. That will be the only issue.

If Trayvon's family chooses to civilly pursue damages claiming but for Zimmerman's wrongful pursuit, Trayvon wouldn't have lost his life, that is another case for another day.

BTW, get a haircut.
Actually, I agree with you regarding letting a jury decide the case. I think Zimmerman walks (even without the stand your ground law), but I think Zimmerman would lose a civil case if one were allowed.

I think the stand your ground law protects Zimmerman, so I think he walks both criminally and civilly once this plays out. I expect that the Martins family will sue the Homeowners Assoc. at some point in the future, and I like their chances.

And I wish I had that much hair.

Man I was flipping around last night and settled in on MSNBC. I watched Al Sharpton for about 20 minutes. I swear that things have gotten much worse with cable news in the two years since I was out of the country. While overseas, I watched the Asia versions of CNN and BBC and did not receive the major US market broadcasts.

Seriously? Sharpton?? Sharpton comes across as borderline illiterate, and his show is basically free campaign advertising for Obama and the left. WTF is wrong with us? I see FOX is still swung out to the right, but MSNBC is seriously out of control.

I do enjoy the Silver Fox on CNN. He holds everybody's feet to the fire, but there isn't a lot of substance there; he just instigates fights between his guests.

Are you saying that the media lied to us when they called him a "white" hispanic? :suspicious:

Trayvon Martin Had Drugs in System, Autopsy Found
ABC ^ | MATT GUTMAN



Trayvon Martin, the 17-year-old who was shot and killed by a neighborhood watch volunteer, had the drug THC in his system the night of this death, according to new information obtained by ABC News.

The revelation came as prosecutors in the case prepared to release to the public hundreds of pages of new evidence along with videos and crime scene photos.

Martin's death sparked public outrage after police released Martin's shooter, George Zimmerman, without any criminal charges for the killing.

Zimmerman, 28, is a multi-racial Hispanic man who shot the black high school junior at close range on Feb. 26, and claimed self-defense, though Martin was unarmed. Zimmerman was later charged with second-degree murder, and the killing provoked widespread debate about racial profiling.

It's not, unless you think smoking weed is a crime that deserves the death penalty. Sadly, the police didn't check Zimmerman's blood the night of the shooting.

I still think Zimmerman walks but -

I think "who started it" is very important in applying the stand your ground law. If it can be proved that Zimmerman followed and then started a fight with Martin I don't think Zimmerman can be saved by the stand your ground law.

Cops, Witnesses Back Up George Zimmerman's Version of Trayvon Martin Shooting


ABCNews.com ^ | May 17, 2012 | By MATT GUTMAN (@mattgutmanABC) , SENI TIENABESO and COLLEEN CURRY

Two police reports written the night that George Zimmerman shot Trayvon Martin said that Zimmerman had a bloody face and nose, according to police reports made public today.

The reports also note that two witness accounts appear to back up Zimmerman's version of what happened when they describe a man on his back with another person wearing a hoodie straddling him and throwing punches. In addition, Trayvon Martin's father told an investigator after listening to 911 tapes that captured a man's voice frantically callling for help that it was not his son calling for help. The new information is part...

I'm not giving him a pass. He might be guilty of something. He might not be guilty of something. I'm just pointing out that someone who wasn't there, doesn't know all the facts, yet says Zimmerman is 100% at fault here is a retard.
IF IF IF? Nothing I said is in dispute.
Zimmerman admitted to following Martin in the 9-1-1 call.
Martin told his girlfriend he was being followed
- and even if you doubt her statement there is the fact that Zimmerman also said on the 9-1-1 call that Martin was trying to get away. He wouldn't have been trying to get away unless he knew was being followed.

As for 100% - I stick by that. You can assign any number you like, but it still comes down to an irresponsible adult shooting a teenager.
Martin has some responsibility for it. Just because some tin-pot wannabe cop is trailing you doesn't give you the right to pummel them.

I don't think the weed is important to the case, but where it is important, is how the left jumped on Zimmerman's statement that Martin looked to be on drugs at the time in his 911 call. Shows how quick they were to convict Zimmerman and dismiss everything he said.

Multiracial? So we're multiracial now, as opposed to being a "real" minority. After all, he HAS to be multiracial, because people of pure minority blood dont kill others like them. 'Sposed to stick together. Must have been his white blood that made him pull the trigger.

Multiracial hispanic. Hmm. Maybe our multiracial black President will weigh in on this issue again and soothe the multiracial tensions in this country.

Prosecutors on Thursday made public a trove of evidence used to justify murder charges against Neighborhood Watch volunteer George Zimmerman, including a police report that concluded "the encounter between George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin was ultimately avoidable by Zimmerman."
