I also recall something this year, maybe in the last 2 or 3 months where he was in some altercation and bragged/threatened 'you know what happened to the last guy who hit me?' or some thing to that effect.
The Zimmerman view of what happened gets seen as BS more and more with each incident. I still think he instigated the fight and was losing it and out of loss of pride shot Martin. Its a HUGE stretch to assume Martin was trying to kill the guy. Nothing in his past suggests random murder and he was on his way home. But that horse has been beaten half to death.
The real sad thing is deep down Zimmerman supporters could care less if it was murder or self defense. Getting away with killing Martin, no matter what the reason or provocation was what a scary percentage of his supporters really wanted and they were willing to hang on to the flimsiest of theories or over amplify facts such as bruises to lie to themselves and to others. |
Except for the fact that all the forensic evidence gathered supported Zimmerman's story as shown ad nauseam above. Martin may not have been ACTIVELY trying to kill Zimmerman but he surely intended laying a serious beating on him...see the head wounds on the back of Zimmerman's head where his head was smashed repeatedly into the concrete. Zimmerman claimed he thought his life was in danger (and so did the jury apparently).
As for being seen more and more as BS...no. The facts are in, the case has been laid to rest and the conclusion is that Zimmerman acted in self-defense and in fear of his life. Other actions have no bearing on how this case is viewed.
As for your specious allegations about Zimmerman supporters perhaps you should re-read the TOS. There are some Zimmerman supporters on this site and your comments could be seen as a personal attack on them. Just saying. |
All the forensic evidence proved was that Martin hit him. It does not prove he was trying to kill Zimmerman. That's Zimmerman's assertion. Forensic evidence is not an exact science as well.

Intent to murder is subjective. NOTHING suggests Martin was trying to kill him. If we are hanging that on Zimmerman who was not out cold, who was able to still get a gun, then any fight is an intent to kill.
The bottom line is people wanted Zimmerman innocent by any means necessary and even with the flimsiest of suppositions . It makes many of you feel better so be it. Zimmerman was as innocent as OJ. Yet, the same people accept the forensics for one and not for the other..on both sides. Again, it obviously allows some of you to feel good about supporting a murder, so be it. |

Seems that some people wanted Martin to be innocent as well. Too bad for them that the trial didn't come to that conclusion. |
