The part about not being able to remove the weapon while being straddled was recently demonstrated by 2 students at a Kung Fu Academy in NY, the rest was taken from the documents [statements, photos, reports] released by the state of Fl.
I don't accept what "the media" says, until I've verified it.
You, OTOH, seem very willing to accept that Zimmerman told the truth, no matter what his history or common sense says.
OK, we can agree to disagree - but nothing I typed is wrong, and all of it is relevant, because Zimmerman is the only one who knows what happened, really.
That's why he was found not guilty: the state couldn't prove he was lying.
As I said before, better the guilty go free than the innocent don't.

Much of what you typed was wrong but you are refusing to acknowledge it.

I don't even know how to address what you say here, every single thing you said is wrong or irrelevant. You seemed to have picked up this "information" from CNBC, especially the part about not being able to get the gun out. The NW thing, Martin not being violent, Martin not having practiced fighting, it is all wrong. Stop buying what the media is selling.

Precisely..................

She's like a bad bad episode of Nancy Grace........along with a little bit of Piers Morgan thrown in.............Absolutely Ridiculous. (I'm still Laughing at the "Bumps On the Nose caused by the recoil of the Gun" belief from another thread weeks ago :rolleyes: )

Remember during the Rutgers / Raped Hooker event Nancy Grace got stuck on a few years back. NG said that Crystal Mangum was "SO TERRIFIED WITH FEAR" while the Police were questioning her that she could not get out of the car and had a TERRIFIED / PETRIFIED Death Grip on the door handle of the Car so tightly that she couldn't even open her eyes even with the Police Officer standing there.....When in Fact she was Stone Cold STONED / HIGH / DRUNK that night that she had NO Idea what was going on around her.

Well..........Same thing is happening here in this Case. George Zimmerman is NOT GUILTY............and INNOCENT in this whole matter. I Frankly am tired of the Whole Ilk of it all from ALL the News Channels.........Even FOX..........and Think EVERYBODY should get on with their lives................

All of what I typed was taken from here:

Documents Given to the Defendant_R (1)

Go ahead: find the proof that anything I typed was not supported by fact, or that I claimed it was, when it wasn't.
I speculated about Zimmerman grabbing Martin's arm, yes, because that's the only scenario that seems plausible to me, after reading every one of the linked docs.
Did you read any of them - or just the media versions of what happened?

No problem and I will also mention the irrelevant parts as well since that is a majority of it as I mentioned before.

That is an awfully big jump to make and is CLEARLY not supported by facts or evidence.

Did you read any of them - or just the media versions of what happened?

Well since my belief of what happened, unlike yours, follows the evidence instead of what the media reported I'm not sure why you would think that.

Ignoring what doesn't fit? You mean, like:
Zimmerman was following Martin, but the only one who says Martin then followed Zimmerman is Zimmerman. Who has every reason to lie.

He really has no reason to lie since it is not illegal to follow someone which makes the statement irrelevant and not backed up by facts or evidence.

Zimmerman had a gun, Martin had a can of iced tea.

Irrelevant when someone attacks you.

Zimmerman knew what was happening & why he was following Martin. Martin had no idea - in his shoes, I'd certainly have to consider some scary possibilities.

Irrelevant since Martin was not attacked and had no reason to defend himself, but it would mean Martin could be suspicious of Zimmerman.

Zimmerman had 18 months of martial arts training, Martin had none.

Wrong and misleading since it was a year not 18 months but Zimmerman had also taken a few months off as well during that year. Martin had street fighting practice which was what they were involved in.

Zimmerman had college courses on Criminal justice, Martin was a high school teenager.

Irrelevant and has no bearing on anything other than emotion.

Zimmerman had a documented history of assault and a restraining order taken against him. Martin had no violent history at all. [One text mgs claiming to have been in a fight, but no school suspensions for fighting]

Zimmerman and an ex-fiancee took restraining orders out against each other. Zimmerman was accused of pushing a police officer(the assault) when he was drinking with a friend when they were underage. It was an undercover officer that Zimmerman said never identified himself, which apparently was an issue among that unit, and Zimmerman said the officer assaulted him first. Martin had a history of violence and being a thug but yet you claim he had no history, well you acknowledge then quickly dismiss it.

Zimmerman told police at the scene that he had no arrests on his record: another lie. Martin had no arrests on his record.

The charges were dropped against Zimmerman and I am not sure if they were expunged or not but it could be he thought that they were since the charge was waived which gives him the right to say he was not arrested before. As far as Martin not having an arrest record there is a very good reason why, it is called preferential treatment since he was black. The media doesn't like to acknowledge that Chief Hurley from the Miami School District PD was demoted and sent packing after it was discovered Martin should have been arrested at least twice but Hurley had officers forging reports so that he could claim a 60% reduction in arrests to prove they weren't racist.

Zimmerman's story changed several times, and what he claimed he did: unholstering his weapon while being straddled & getting his head slammed was shown to be impossible: a person being straddled cannot get his weapon out from under the assailant's weight - just can't happen.

You know what didn't change though? The fact that Zimmerman passed a lie detector test about the important questions including the confrontation and following Martin. Do you have a link for a video from the martial arts school you say proved this?

Zimmerman says he turned Martin over afterwards & spread his arms out to hold him down, but Martin was found face down, arms pinned underneath.
[Aside: he shot a teen, and never even checked to see if the kid was still alive?!]

It was already established that Martin could have been alive for several minutes after the shooting giving him the chance to move or maybe Zimmerman tried piecing it together and was wrong, either way it is irrelevant.

There are so many inconsistencies & holes in Zimmerman's account it would be incredible even if he were a truthful person, which he has a long and clear history of not being. He lied to the police [no arrest record], the judge [no money for defense], his family ["tutored black kids", printed & handed out flyers demanding justice for homeless beating victim" - and isn't that a delicious irony?!], neighbors [he was not NW, he simply said he was, and no one doubted it, because who would?] and his friends [a graduation party when he was nowhere near finished with school].

They are only a problem because you have manufactured your own story about what happened and because you are trying to make something huge out of small things. There is evidence that he was very upset over the beating of the homeless black man and stood up to the police for him, ironically there is proof in one of the links you provided, plus there is video of him speaking out. Oh, and did I mention the lie detector test showing he was being truthful?

Those are just the ones I know about, but they show a clear picture of someone who doesn't hesitate to lie in order to improve his image or stature in the eye of the beholder. IOW: a common garden variety liar.The jury had no choice, but that doesn't make Zimmerman innocent.

The jury did have a choice and it was guilty or not guilty. I'm sure if you took all the dirt you could find on someone in their late 20's and condensed it down to a few sentences you could make anyone look bad. Just look at Martin, Zimmerman had a decade on him and Martin still had more problems and came out looking worse, well you would've had to look deeper than what the media told you to see it.

If his life is ruined, at least he still has a life. I'd feel much safer, though, if he [and other self appointed vigilantes] weren't carrying concealed weapons around when they jump to the wrong conclusions.

I'd feel safer if criminal thugs like Martin weren't carrying illegal guns around or attacking people because they want to feel tough.

That is an awfully big jump to make and is CLEARLY not supported by facts or evidence.

You find that a big jump, when RJ [on the phone with Martin] even said she'd suggested that the creepy guy following him might be a pervert?
What I consider an awfully big jump is the contention that a teenager who is there because he got suspended from school, doesn't know the neighbors at all, and is talking on the phone with a friend would suddenly go ballistic, for no apparent reason. The dialogue as reported by RJ [Martin: why you following me? Zimmerman: what are you doing around here? followed by Martin again: get off, get off!] sounds far more believable than the dialogue reported by Zimmerman [Martin: You got a problem? Zimmerman: no. followed by Martin again: "you do now, m-f'r!" then a sucker punch]

Z's version sounds artificial, like bad movie dialogue, all the way to M's last words: "you got me!"] I don't buy it.




Well since my belief of what happened, unlike yours, follows the evidence instead of what the media reported I'm not sure why you would think that.

Because you accept as facts things that Z claims, [M followed him, and attacked first] with zero evidence to back it up.



He really has no reason to lie since it is not illegal to follow someone which makes the statement irrelevant and not backed up by facts or evidence.

Z had/has very good reason to lie: prison. Self defense is one crime in which the perception of danger is critical, and Z created that perception by following M, and refusing to explain/ answer why when asked directly.



Irrelevant when someone attacks you.

Relevance goes to state of mind.



Irrelevant since Martin was not attacked and had no reason to defend himself, but it would mean Martin could be suspicious of Zimmerman.

See? The sole 'proof' that M wasn't attacked [or grabbed] first is Z's statement, which you're willing to accept as gospel. I'm not.



Wrong and misleading since it was a year not 18 months but Zimmerman had also taken a few months off as well during that year. Martin had street fighting practice which was what they were involved in.

Really?!! One text msg saying he got in a fight that lasted 3 rounds is hardly equivalent to actual formal training.



Irrelevant and has no bearing on anything other than emotion.

Is extremely relevant when the person who has the college classes in Criminal Justice is claiming self defense after killing someone who wasn't armed.



Zimmerman and an ex-fiancee took restraining orders out against each other. Zimmerman was accused of pushing a police officer(the assault) when he was drinking with a friend when they were underage. It was an undercover officer that Zimmerman said never identified himself, which apparently was an issue among that unit, and Zimmerman said the officer assaulted him first. Martin had a history of violence and being a thug but yet you claim he had no history, well you acknowledge then quickly dismiss it.

Yadda yadda yadda - Z did have a documented criminal history of assault, while M did not.




The charges were dropped against Zimmerman and I am not sure if they were expunged or not but it could be he thought that they were since the charge was waived which gives him the right to say he was not arrested before.

It could be he thought they were? Sure. That doesn't explain his not mentioning the restraining order, either. He gave the police the impression he was "squeaky clean", which is what they told M's father, but he was not being truthful and you know it.

As far as Martin not having an arrest record there is a very good reason why, it is called preferential treatment since he was black. The media doesn't like to acknowledge that Chief Hurley from the Miami School District PD was demoted and sent packing after it was discovered Martin should have been arrested at least twice but Hurley had officers forging reports so that he could claim a 60% reduction in arrests to prove they weren't racist.

Link, please. and I expect it to say specifically that M "should have been arrested twice", and why.



You know what didn't change though? The fact that Zimmerman passed a lie detector test about the important questions including the confrontation and following Martin.

You know why those tests are not admissible in court, right? Because they aren't reliable proof.

Do you have a link for a video from the martial arts school you say proved this?

No, because I can't remember the name of the school, or which article it was in. It seems to be perfectly reasonable to me, though: with someone pinning you down with their knees tucked tight against your sides, how do you get a gun out of your waistband holster? I don't think you can.



It was already established that Martin could have been alive for several minutes after the shooting giving him the chance to move or maybe Zimmerman tried piecing it together and was wrong, either way it is irrelevant.

Funny how every change in the story and impossible/unlikely claim Z made is irrelevant in your mind, considering how everything hinges upon his truthfulness.

Martin looked worse? To whom? The kid was a good student with a few suspensions [which ain't real hard to do in the zero tolerance of today's schools] who liked math best and wanted to go to college and was interested in avionics. You're drawing conclusions from cellphone photos that have no context or explanation at all, except the spin you choose to place on them, but you don't really know at all.
Z was an adult college student who didn't graduate when he was scheduled to [but let the party go ahead anyhow] because he was failing classes. And if he wasn't in enough trouble, he got his wife arrested for felony perjury, thus ensuring that her nursing education is down the drain too. And you defend his honesty? Puuhhleeezze!!

Not a criminal. Not a thug. And if we're going to assume we know what he wanted to feel, my guess is 'tough' would be pretty far down the list at that particular time & place - I'd think he just wanted to feel safe, with some unknown creepy guy following him around in the dark.
It's too bad he couldn't, and people like you continue to defend that.

The charges were dropped against Zimmerman and I am not sure if they were expunged or not but it could be he thought that they were since the charge was waived which gives him the right to say he was not arrested before.
A relatively minor point, but that's not entirely accurate. An arrest, and a disposition of charges are two distinctly different things. The charges can be waived or dismissed, and the arrest record still exists. Even if the charges are expunged, the arrest record still exists.

In 1992 I was arrested and then a few days later the judge dismissed the case "with prejudice," which carries the same weight as a not guilty finding, and means the charges can't even be brought against me again. That's how baseless the charges were.

But the arrest record was still there. For years.

It wasn't until many moons later when I applied for a FAST card that the arrest record reared it's ugly head. To satisfy both US and Canadian border officials, I had to get a copy of the disposition of the case to show that the charges had been dismissed. At the time I did that, the court clerk suggested that if I asked the judge to expunge the arrest record, that he would. I asked, and he did. I learned then that you can just make up something about someone to get them arrested, and the arrest could follow them around forever, even if the charges were laughingly dismissed.

Expunging the arrest didn't help much with the Nanooks whenever I crossed at a border crossing that I didn't use much, especially into Provinces that I didn't go into very often. Which is why I still today carry a copy of the disposition along with the judge's order to expunge the actual arrest.


Incidentally, referring to Martin as a "thug" with a history of being a thug is prejudicial, and incorrect if you know the definition of the word, especially when you do it in the context of playing up Martin's history while at the same time playing down Zimmerman's.

For example, "Zimmerman was accused of pushing a police officer(the assault) when he was drinking with a friend when they were underage."

Zimmerman was arrested and charged with "resisting arrest with violence" in July, 2005 when he was 21 years, 10 months old. His friend was underage, not Zimmerman. The charges were first reduced, and then waived, in exchange for him entering an alcohol education program (which, in addition to telling investigators on the night of the shooting that he'd never been arrested, he also told them that he'd never been in such a first offender program).

Try this link:


Miami-Dade Schools Could Have Saved Travyon Martin?s Life by Arresting Him : The Other McCain

I know nothing about this writer but it only took one search to find this.

Martin's backpack was searched [looking for a marker after someone wrote "WTF?" on a school door], and the jewelry found [which Martin said was given to him by a friend] was turned over to the police, who found no evidence it had been stolen or reported missing. None. Referring to it as 'stolen jewelry' is just making up the angle that the writer wants to convey, but it's not the truth. As for the screwdriver, calling that a burglary tool is just ridiculous - there could be a dozen reasons for someone to carry a screwdriver that have nothing to do with breaking the law. Like being a teenager who doesn't own a car, and rides a bike, for one.

Here is a link to the Miami Herald story where they mention him being found with stolen jewelry in his back pack.

SANFORD: Multiple suspensions paint complicated portrait of Trayvon Martin - Trayvon Martin - MiamiHerald.com

The suspension for possession of a baggie with 'trace residue' of marijuana is the one thing he was unquestionably guilty of - but if that makes him a thug, well, he'd have plenty of company, and at one time, it would have included me. [A lot of years ago, but still...]
The irony is that marijuana [of which there were traces found in the autopsy] is widely known for making one feel mellow, not inclined to violence. If the lab had found PCP, ['angel dust'] or some other drug, it'd be different.
Having got himself suspended, his mother packed him off to spend some time with his father [who was, incidentally, a softball coach] to get him away from the friends who introduced him to smoking dope. That's the logical responsible parenting reaction, when a teenager is maybe heading down the wrong path, and I would have done the same, in their shoes. Which, thankfully, I never was.
Incidentally: while talking to his friend on the phone, one of the last things he said before mentioning being followed was that he missed his Mom.

Some 'thug', huh?

This proves just how unwilling you are to even consider the possibility that Zimmerman was defending himself or to objectively look at the case. There is no question that RJ is very untrustworthy, lied to police, lied during testimony, lied to friends, lied to Martin's parents, and tried to change her testimony to add negative things. You accept her version despite her being a liar and major inconsistencies but dismiss Zimmerman's account for the same reasons. What do you even mean that Zimmerman's story sounds artificial? The story is simple, specific, and not missing any big details.

Because you accept as facts things that Z claims, [M followed him, and attacked first] with zero evidence to back it up.

I don't accept Zimmerman's story as being facts and have said so but there is evidence to back his story up, even though for some unknown reason you claim there isn't.

Z had/has very good reason to lie: prison. Self defense is one crime in which the perception of danger is critical, and Z created that perception by following M, and refusing to explain/ answer why when asked directly.

Again it is not illegal and irrelevant.

See? The sole 'proof' that M wasn't attacked [or grabbed] first is Z's statement, which you're willing to accept as gospel. I'm not.

Well we can also take into account Martin's racism and anger at being followed, oh and the lie detector test.

Really?!! One text msg saying he got in a fight that lasted 3 rounds is hardly equivalent to actual formal training.

Really?!! You think it was one fight. This again shows your complete lack of looking beyond what MSNBC told you to think. There were multiple fights including one were Martin fought with someone who "snitched" on him and that he was going to go after the snitch again.

Is extremely relevant when the person who has the college classes in Criminal Justice is claiming self defense after killing someone who wasn't armed.

Who isn't aware of self-defense laws? Who needs to go to college to hear of self-defense laws for the first time? It is irrelevant.

Yadda yadda yadda - Z did have a documented criminal history of assault, while M did not.

So you are going to just ignore things that don't fit into your idea of what happened?

It could be he thought they were? Sure. That doesn't explain his not mentioning the restraining order, either. He gave the police the impression he was "squeaky clean", which is what they told M's father, but he was not being truthful and you know it.

I just explained the possibility of why he answered the way he did which means he did not answer correctly or lied. Why are you acting like you just came up with some earth shattering evidence that I have been denying? Maybe he was worried that admitting he was arrested before might prejudice the police, either way it is not critical to the case.

Link, please. and I expect it to say specifically that M "should have been arrested twice", and why.

I'm not sure why you would think that possession of drug paraphernalia on school property and the highly suspicious jewelry issue wouldn't warrant an arrest and investigation. The issues of the jewelry and drugs were covered up which would certainly explain why they didn't go further.

http://mobile.wnd.com/2013/04/police-buried-trayvons-criminal-history/

http://theconservativetreehouse.com...rayvon-martin-cover-up-hurley-blows-a-gasket/

You know why those tests are not admissible in court, right? Because they aren't reliable proof.

You mean exactly like eye witness and defendant testimony but when you get all 3 pointing in the same direction it suddenly seems very likely that Zimmerman is being truthful.

No, because I can't remember the name of the school, or which article it was in. It seems to be perfectly reasonable to me, though: with someone pinning you down with their knees tucked tight against your sides, how do you get a gun out of your waistband holster? I don't think you can.

Simply by reaching down during the struggle, it wouldn't be all that difficult and very far from impossible. The video would certainly be very important to demonstrate how and why they reached that conclusion. The only video I saw that showed what you said was the ridiculous dummy demonstration by HLN.

Funny how every change in the story and impossible/unlikely claim Z made is irrelevant in your mind, considering how everything hinges upon his truthfulness.

Are you trying to convince me, yourself, or others that choose to ignore all the other evidence that everything hinges on Zimmerman's story? The position of Martin's body is irrelevant to the case and as I stated there is a very good reason for the arms to have moved and that is Martin was still alive. You can't have a perfectly valid reason for the arms to have moved and then just claim Zimmerman is a liar because it fits your story. What impossible or unlikely claims of Zimmerman that matter am I saying are irrelevant?

What 'evidence'? What 'proof'?

You're kidding, right? There is an e-mail to the SPD in the link you provided stating he was upset about the case not to mention the recording of him speaking at a public meeting.

Martin looked worse? To whom?

Sorry, I should have prefaced my statement by saying he looked worse to those that watched more than the fake media stories.

The kid was a good student with a few suspensions [which ain't real hard to do in the zero tolerance of today's schools] who liked math best and wanted to go to college and was interested in avionics.

The statement is just laughable and the fact that you have the information shows just how far from reality and facts you are. Little Trayvon loved math so much that he missed 50+ days of school and the school year wasn't even half over, just ridiculous.

You're drawing conclusions from cellphone photos that have no context or explanation at all, except the spin you choose to place on them, but you don't really know at all.

The text messages are very clear and require no spin and certainly aren't out of context since the conversation is all there.

Z was an adult college student who didn't graduate when he was scheduled to [but let the party go ahead anyhow] because he was failing classes. And if he wasn't in enough trouble, he got his wife arrested for felony perjury, thus ensuring that her nursing education is down the drain too. And you defend his honesty? Puuhhleeezze!!

His wife got herself arrested by her own actions and not what Zimmerman did but hey why not blame him for the actions of another person one more time, at least it is only perjury this time. I am taking the evidence and his statements together that lean heavily towards him being honest and not just relying on his word. The "Puuhhleeezze" is out of place and really doesn't make sense. Instead of trying to be dramatic and pretending you just made some huge point you may want to wait to use it until you actually do.

Not a criminal. Not a thug. And if we're going to assume we know what he wanted to feel, my guess is 'tough' would be pretty far down the list at that particular time & place - I'd think he just wanted to feel safe, with some unknown creepy guy following him around in the dark.It's too bad he couldn't, and people like you continue to defend that. :(

He wasn't a criminal only because the police were protecting him and he wasn't able to face charges for his most recent crime of felony assault. You have a very clear lack of understanding of the mindset of people like Martin, the last thing they want to feel is scared or weak.

Enough already. You choose to believe that Zimmerman is an honest person who told the truth, and Martin was a thug.
I choose to believe neither of those is true.
BTW: about that "Little Trayvon" remark? When I was in my senior year of high school, I probably didn't show up 50 days the entire year, and somehow managed to be a productive and law abiding citizen anyhow. Like Zimmerman, you make assumptions that might just possibly be completely unfounded.

Nice, request links and proof of my claims then when you get painted into a corner with just how wrong you are you just plug your ears and close your eyes so you don't have to deal with it.

You made the claim that Trayvon was a good student. I was simply pointing out just how far off base this image of him was and any sort of basic research easily shows it is a complete and total fabrication. I never said Martin couldn't turn his life around but the facts of who he was aren't changing on what could have been, with his current activity he was more likely to end up in prison or killing someone.
