apparently trayvon did stop and ask him why a "creepy white guy" was following him. zimmerman's 911 phone call acknowledges that trayvon stops and sees he is watching him, talking on the phone. 2 witnesses came forward with the "white guy" line. all the court wanted to focus on was if trayvon's remarks were racist. gg american justice.Extra Medium wrote:

What if Trayvon had simply turned around and politely asked why the hell he was being followed. I'd put every dollar I have on a situation where an amicable discussion might have been had and we wouldn't know who the hell either of these people are.
Reaction through rash emotion is what makes these situations occur.

Hopefully a little prison rape sets him straight. He's got prison queen written all over him.pirana6 wrote:

someone should probably do that to zimmerman is what i'm sayin
yeah I dunno what that's about. who do you think is going to be crying aside from trayvons mom and dad? do you think anybody else cares? anyway it's not like zimmerman is gonna walk away a hero and have a normal life again. if he walks (which it looks like he might), he's gonna be fucked for life. His own lawyers threw him under the bus in order to keep him out of jail (see my post a few pages ago). I'm not giving that guy a job if he asks me for one (not that I have one to give anyway), and it's not because I personally think he's guilty (I have no idea if he is or isn't) its because of his lawyers and how he's acted through the whole ordeal.Extra Medium wrote:

I wouldn't hire him because I considered his behavior there dangerous and irresponsible.pirana6 wrote:

good luck either way zimmerman, you're gonna need it.
He said that because he wants to shoot a black person and get away with it.unnamednewbie13 wrote:

Good luck with stalking anyone you want, Meds. Maybe you can be the next Zimmerman.
As a resident he had just as much right to be there as Martin did. And apparently he didn't start the fight.Stubbee wrote:
Be an interesting precedent if Zimmerman walks. You would legally able to kill anyone. First make sure your target doesn't have a gun, start a fight and defend yourself, BOOM HEADSHOT!
