1: Zimmerman was patrolling while on his neighborhood watch.

2: He spots and follows an unknown person and calls 911 to make a report (what neighborhood watch is supposed to do?!?)
.
3: Martin is on his phone to a friend saying he is being followed.

4: Martin disappears for up to 4 minutes, then comes at Zimmerman and attacks him. Zimmerman nose fractured at that point?

5: Martin is on top of Zimmerman attacking him while Zimmerman yells for help.

6: Nearby witness sees Martin on top of Zimmerman (person in dark shirt (Martin’s hoodie) on top of and beating up person in light shirt).

7: After getting head pounded onto concrete Zimmerman defends self by pulling gun and shooting.


Fact: Since the shooting, 99.9% of all media showed photos of Martin when he was a cute little 10 year old, not the 17 year old that he was (tainting American’s true views of Martin?). Martin was on the verge of legally becoming an adult.

Reported: Martin’s texts showed that he bragged about his fighting prowess, inquires about guns and that he was known to use marijuana. Not the angelic sweet boy shown in the photos for 17 months.

Reported: Zimmerman was known to mentor youth, including black kids. He is also half Hispanic. Does that support the prosecution claims that his is racist?

Facts 1-7 are pretty straight forward and could lead a jury to no other conclusion than self-defense. Everyone in America that is outraged over this is only using their emotions to judge Zimmerman’s actions.
The media is a BIG part of why there is a racial divide in America. After the verdict was read, I saw a female legal analyst (on either MSNBC or CNN) say that “Tonight there are 12 year olds climbing into their parents beds out of fear”. She was insinuating that black children are/should be scared because of the Zimmerman acquittal. For shame!

Media, the news stations, are fast becoming the major factor in the destruction of America.

If there is no sensational news to report (for ratings), create it.

The downfall of newspapers and real news journalism is part of shallow electronic media journalism and its powerful effect on American masses.

The news media in this Country had Zimmerman convicted before the trial ever started and the stupid white liberals in this Country went right along with them, along with the Hollywood crowd. I'm just glad I won't be seeing "Justice For Trayvon" when I'm watching the news anymore. It's a damn shame a 17 year old was killed but if anyone read the facts with a level head leading up to the trial...it was a foegone conclusion...Trayvon just took on the wrong person.

Did you all watch 'Face the Nation' this morning?

AS good a show as it is:
1. they showed the 10 yo pic of Martin.
2. They only interviewed black people.

IMHO, all the people who want Zimmerman guilty or dead, want that simply because Martin was black.
Now who are the racists?

Al Sharpton on Meet the Press just said that "when the feds start their trial of Zimmerman it will be because of the race issue".

Martin should have not come back to Zimmerman....plain and simple. The fact that he disappeared and then came hunting Zimmerman makes this his (Treyvon's) fault. Sorry he's dead, but he should have stayed away.

If the feds go after Zimmerman it will be a witch hunt purely motivated by politics.

I just posted this same comment on another Zimmerman topic on this forum. I will re-post it here:

"One of the amazing things verbally charged of Zimmerman is that he was a "wanna be cop". That's a bad thing? I, personally, am thankful that there are people who still aspire to that vocation. Get rid of the LEO'S and everyone of the liberals will take about two weeks to realize they had best get a firearm.

It's a travesty that it even went to trial. Now the publicity hungry idiots will march and profess he was a martyr with speeches to gain their fifteen minutes."

Last night after saw the not guilty verdict on internet I turned on TV and turned on CNN ( which was first time in months as never watch that crap) any way they was fanning the flames trying to excite the you know. Then they interview Georges' brother and they tried every trick that could think of to trick him into saying bad things but he was 2 smart to fall for the tricks. then a little later they were interviewing some one else but he started saying the verdict was the correct one so they cut him off in mid sentence. Isn't CNN great

Right, it will be done due to pressure from NAACP and other organizations.

What would happen if we started a NAAWP?

Zimmerman is half white.
Obama is half white.

Why didn't the half white identify with the other half white instead of the black?
