Zimmerman is a racist, he attacked Martin out of racial hatred. Martin being the saint he was tried to reason with the filthy racist, unfortunately the racist was carrying a gun and shot him. Then the racist police decide to cover it up and the racist doctor also decided to release some false medical reports.

And you were there to see how it all happened.

Seems legit.

[QUOTE="Renevent42"][QUOTE="Ugalde-"]

I am not to keen on the story, I have kind of decided to sit this one out in most threads, but all I am going to say is if a guy was following me, and then got close and threatened me with a gun, it's not to crazy to think that I would strike first.

Ugalde-

#1 I almost guarantee you wouldn't strike first. #2 Nothing in the case suggest Zimmerman threatened Martin with a gun.

#1 I am not saying I would strike first. I have never been in that situation, But i don't think its to crazy to think someone might attack a person with a gun if they felt threatened. #2 Again not very knowledgeable on this one, but how did Zimmerman even get close enough to get attacked?

Well I've had a gun pulled on me (bad area of town) and the last thing on my mind was punching the guy in the face. I just handed him over my wallet lol. With that said he was a polite armed robber and I did ask for my wallet back because it had my ID and stuff in it...so he took the money out and gave me my wallet back. Very nice of him!

Anyways according to Zimmerman he lost site of Martin at which point Martin attacked him. We don't know if that's true though, but a lot of the evidence is starting to corroborate most of his story. With that said there's absolutely zero evidence supporting that Zimmerman was chasing down Martin with a gun. Martin was on the phone with his girlfriend and never mentioned a gun once. While that of course doesn't mean there isn't any possibility that he didn't, there's nothing to suggest he did and in fact things pointing to that not being the case.

[QUOTE="Bucked20"][QUOTE="Renevent42"] No, that's just your own personal racism speaking. If a black man was being beaten and defended himself and the evidence supported that I would be making the same exact points.

What is clear, however, is you will ignore all the evidence so you can affirm your own racists beliefs.

Renevent42

If you got your asss whoop in a fight you should be able to take the L instead of pulling a gun like a b*tch.I guess its ok though since you think Zimmerman was the victim in this situation.

Well that's progress I guess...so it's not that Zimmerman was wrong...he should have just let Martin continue to assault him and take the beating.

Amazing.

Martin is the one that had to defend himself

Okay sounds like this is one of those things that we will never know the answer to. I'm just going to stay out of this stuff lol.

Yes because Martin is dead. Zimmerman is the only one telling us "what happened" and the witnesses didn't see anything until after the commotion started. Guess we'll never know exactly why Martin struck Zimmerman. Since he's dead and all.

Physical evidence is actually more reliable than the accounts of the actors as at least one of them would have to make them self look better.

What? The actors? So physical evidence is sufficient to explain the motivations that led to Martin striking Zimmerman? The Physical evidence only provides the Effect. Not the Cause. If I broke your nose and busted your face then the only thing known is that I broke your nose and busted your face. There is nothing to say why I broke your nose and busted your face other than your testimony. If I wasn't available to give my testimony then your side is all we would have to go on. And it is human nature to paint yourself as a victim, especially if you are embarrassed from getting an ass whooping. There is no way to know that you were actually the instigator and threw the first punch if it hit in an area that didn't leave physical evidence of such, and then after instigating the fight ended up getting more than you could handle and were left with a broken nose and busted face. Physical Evidence does not tell all the story.

Considering some of the answers from some people regarding this major mediatic trashstorm and the fact that this thread got to ten pages in barely two hours I can't tell for sure.

You are right, as I said in the beginning of the thread Zimmerman was assaulting Martin's knuckles with his face.

I think you misunderstood his point. He didn't say it tells the whole story, just that it's more reliable than witnesses. Both would have their story, the evidence is what corroborates the stories. They can make people into liars, show someone is telling the truth, ect. Let's say Martin survived and said Zimmerman just starting kicking his arse for no reason then shot him. Well, the evidence show that Martin was the one with busted up knuckles not Zimmerman. It also shows Zimmerman having head wounds and a broken nose...the evidence would not substantiate his story.

Per the article linked, the evidence is consistent with Martin trying to get away or defend himself from Zimmerman.

I am not sure I understand how any of this matters. Kids get in fights all the time does that mean if one got a broken nose they had the right to kill the guy who did it? unless told otherwise I am going to assume many here think yes to that question

You are acting like they both just got into a fight like they were at school or something. Zimmerman says he was attacked, not that they started fighting. He said he was screaming for help and Martin continued to beat him (corroborated by an eye witness). It's not the same. How stupid do you have to be to even make the comparison?

Or there was this creepy dude stalking you, yelling at you and telling you to stay where you are. When you refused this guy grabbed you, you pushed him away and then he took a swing at you and you blocked it, or ducked out of the way, then there would be no physical evidence that the other guy was the instigator. And after having the other take a swing at you, you decide to fight back to defend yourself break his nose and get abrasions on your knuckles in the process, and then after this guy starts something, and gets more than he can handle he shoots you dead. But he walks free because he has a broken nose and you have abrasions on your dead corpse.

Actually no, that guy clearly said he believes it helps the defense and is consistent with Zimmerman's account, not the other way around. He simply threw that out there as an alternative. You way took his words out of context...shame on you.

*edit*

Actually that's not your fault...that's the shatty media doing it's thing again.

The original video was cut off to that point, let me find the original...WTF is wrong with the media!?!?!

*edit2*

It is the same video, you just ignored what he said prior (1:00). More consistent with the defense, but of course there's other possibilities. How you turn that into the opposite though is a wonder.

I'd imagine were that the case Martin's call would not have been to a gf but 911....

There is no way to know that you were actually the instigator and threw the first punch if it hit in an area that didn't leave physical evidence of such, and then after instigating the fight ended up getting more than you could handle and were left with a broken nose and busted face. Physical Evidence does not tell all the story.

Actions are punishable by law....motivations aren't important.

[QUOTE="Renevent42"][QUOTE="SEANMCAD"]

I am not sure I understand how any of this matters. Kids get in fights all the time does that mean if one got a broken nose they had the right to kill the guy who did it? unless told otherwise I am going to assume many here think yes to that question

SEANMCAD

You are acting like they both just got into a fight like they were at school or something. Zimmerman says he was attacked, not that they started fighting. He said he was screaming for help and Martin continued to beat him (corroborated by an eye witness). It's not the same. How stupid do you have to be to even make the comparison?

It still doesnt matter!

if someone attacks you with their fists your position is you have the right to kill them.

do you not?

It does matter...if you are assaulted by someone and you try and get away and well for help and you can't get away you have a right to use force, lethal if necessary. If Zimmerman and Martin were mutually fighting though or Zimmerman started the fight, then no, he wouldn't have the right.

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"][QUOTE="Nuck81"] What? The actors? So physical evidence is sufficient to explain the motivations that led to Martin striking Zimmerman? The Physical evidence only provides the Effect. Not the Cause. If I broke your nose and busted your face then the only thing known is that I broke your nose and busted your face. There is nothing to say why I broke your nose and busted your face other than your testimony. If I wasn't available to give my testimony then your side is all we would have to go on. And it is human nature to paint yourself as a victim, especially if you are embarrassed from getting an ass whooping. There is no way to know that you were actually the instigator and threw the first punch if it hit in an area that didn't leave physical evidence of such, and then after instigating the fight ended up getting more than you could handle and were left with a broken nose and busted face. Physical Evidence does not tell all the story.Nuck81

[QUOTE="LJS9502_basic"][QUOTE="Nuck81"][QUOTE="Renevent42"] I think you misunderstood his point. He didn't say it tells the whole story, just that it's more reliable than witnesses. Both would have their story, the evidence is what corroborates the stories. They can make people into liars, show someone is telling the truth, ect. Let's say Martin survived and said Zimmerman just starting kicking his arse for no reason then shot him. Well, the evidence show that Martin was the one with busted up knuckles not Zimmerman. It also shows Zimmerman having head wounds and a broken nose...the evidence would not substantiate his story.

Or there was this creepy dude stalking you, yelling at you and telling you to stay where you are. When you refused this guy grabbed you, you pushed him away and then he took a swing at you and you blocked it, or ducked out of the way, then there would be no physical evidence that the other guy was the instigator. And after having the other take a swing at you, you decide to fight back to defend yourself break his nose and get abrasions on your knuckles in the process, and then after this guy starts something, and gets more than he can handle he shoots you dead. But he walks free because he has a broken nose and you have abrasions on your dead corpse.

I'd imagine were that the case Martin's call would not have been to a gf but 911....

So if there is a creeper around, you immediately call 911? Or do you call your girlfriend making fun of this weird guy? But you're right, just before he got shot Martin should have called time out, so he could call the police.

The is actually pretty true. If a black man had shot a 17 year old white kid even if the White kid had thrown the first punch, he'd already be on death row.

You just contradicted yourself. There were actions, so motivation is important. You seem to be confused on every single murder case that went to trial.

Because obviously by having a casual conversation with his gf instead of trying to get help Martin was clearly showing his fear?:roll:

Progress has been made in those 100 years of America's past. What was once legal is not illegal. People who claim that no great progress has been made whatsoever are blind.

Nope. I said actions are punishable by law. One can have all the motivation in the world....but sans action....no legal ramifications. I'm unsure why that confuses you....but apparently it does.

And yet here we are, the Media is having a frenzy over another Racial Killing, the same republican party and religious institutions that were fighting Black Civil Rights in the 60's are now fighting Gay Civil Rights in the 10's. Yes we've made lots of progress.

thegerg, is that you? :shock:

:lol: oh catchphrases.

On topic though, lets just let the court and local police do their damn jobs instead of letting the general population and the media decide a man's fate. After all that has happened, even if proven innocent, this man will be lambasted everywhere he goes and worse.
