Because you haven't accepted the fact that he is a thug, and in fact, assulted Zimmerman. According to Zimmerman, and the witness heard on the 9-11 call. The screaming was Zimmerman.

And you giant flaming retard, you know why the Colt was called "The Equalizer", because thugs could no longer have their way with victims.

Interesting new info.

If Zimmerman really was beaten up, why wasn't this released earlier? Unless I just missed it. And this seems to conflict with the cell phone info between Trayvon and his girlfriend. The whole conflict still could have been instigated by Zimmerman. He lost the upper hand. Then used his gun.

We'll see......

So CNN can go on and on over a false race killilng story. They are bearing false witness. That is why. They hate America, and want to see it burn.

Umm, ok......

Since no one really knows the whole truth at this point I'm not sure we should accuse CNN of bearing false witness. But it would be good to avoid jumping to any firm conclusions until more info starts to come out. The trouble is we may never know the whole truth since there were few witnesses and conflicting reports.

The shooter, Zimmerman, claims self-defense but it seems to me that all the evidence coming out points to that being false.

The 911 operator told Zimmerman not to follow Trayvon but he did anyway.

It's a sad story.
I seriously doubt that all the facts are in.

The media has a way of suppressing facts that are vital to understanding what actually happened.

Two for instances, although many more could be provided.

1. a shooting at a school, the shooter was stopped, but only two newspapers out of about 1000 mentioned how. Two students ran to their cars, got their hunting rifles out and told the shooter to stop.
Evidently, about 998 newspapers had an agenda that did not include reporting the facts.

2. the Rodney King incident. Shortly after the incident, the entire video of the incident was shown. Including the part where King was seen throwing off the six or so officers who were attempting to restrain him. After about 19 minutes of resisting arrest, the officers finally used a lot of force to restrain King. I saw the entire video twice but it was shown only in about the first hour or so after the story broke, after that only the beatings were shown. In fairness to the officers, why was the first 19 minutes ignored?

There are other incidents I could mention, but those two make my point.

What are all the facts?

I don't know. Do you?

If Zimmerman was afraid and thought Trayvon was a criminal, then you DON"T follow someone who is a danger to you, PERIOD! You get as far away from them as possible.

Okay, I haven't followed this story and don't know the first thing about it but...

...unless you give a damn about other people, or something crazy like that. Again, don't know the particulars here but when I see someone who I think is a potential danger to other people I tend to keep an eye on them. At the least to call the cops or something, if not to be on hand to intervene, or at least act as witness, myself.

I'm sure someone's going to point out how this doesn't apply quite exactly here but I'm sure the general point does.

So Zimmerman has had a fair trial and was convicted of murder already?

Awesome! That is utilizing our Constitutional rights!

The right to a fair and speedy trial in practice!

Why the thread if he is already been convicted of murder in court by a jury of his peers?

Oh, did the judge hand down the sentence already?
