Secondly there is only one witness other than Zimmerman or Martin to the confrontation, that is Rachel Genteal. Her account directly contradicted Zimmermans. Zimmerman lied when he...

Martin did not have the right to physically assault Zimmerman just because he "had a feeling" about that creepy-ass cracker. Except we only have Zimmerman's word that this is how it went down. We don't know who initiated the physical part of the confrontation. 1. Incorrect. The eye-witness and fore...

but they couldn't effectively disprove self-defense.
