People who put stock in the 911 operator's instructions should remember that emergency personnel also instruct people not to run back into a burning building to save a baby. If someone was injured doing so, I suppose you'd feel he deserved it and shouldn't receive health coverage.

Zimmerman didn't do anything illegal, though, as far as I've read. Did he threaten Martin? Did try to stop and frisk him? No, he simply followed him, and Martin didn't even know he was armed. Did Zimmermann act against police advice? Yes, but he wasn't bound to follow the advice. Was he reckless? Maybe.

Did Martin had no other choice but to physically attack him? As far as I can tell he wasn't threatened or had reasons to believe that Zimmerman was about to attack him other that the fact that Zimmerman was following him around. That's a pretty weak justification for charging someone.

I don't know. Maybe I am missing something. Did Zimmerman do anything that could have been reasonably interpreted as a threat?

We actually know the timing pretty accurately because we have the beginning and ending timestamps of GZ's and TM's phone calls and the first 911 call reporting the fight. TM's call ended almost exactly two minutes after GZ's, and the fight would have started right afterwards. So 'several' minutes is a bit of a stretch. More importantly, GZ didn't see TM during this time. TM had run down an unlit path between the houses where there was a T-intersection a short distance away. While still on the phone with the dispatcher, GZ began following the path in part to see if he could find which way TM went, but mostly, he claims, to go across the top of the T to get to the next street and have an address to give to the police, who he requested call him for directions when they arrived at the development. After finishing the call (and the two minutes started elapsing) he went to the street at the end of the upper T and back to the T-intersection. According to TM's girlfriend who was on the call with him, TM had gone as far as at the house he was staying at (which was down the stem of the T about 100 yards away) but was fuming at the guy previously following him and decided to loop back to accost him, which happened around the intersection. I think it's hard to fault GZ much here, even if you don't accept his claim that he was going down the path to get an address. At most, he was a slightly overzealous neighborhood watchman.

I hear you, but you need to make a choice, if you wish to be consistent: either you respect the police and, for example, give them more of the benefit of the doubt when they claim to be acting in self-defense (as we do) and also listen to them when they tell you what to do, or you allow folks to ignore the requests of the police and stop giving them the benefit of the doubt. What bugs me here is what appears to be a double-standard.

Imagine that you are in your own neighborhood, at night, and someone is following you. Would you consider that threatening? If not, then OK. I, personally, would find that at least somewhat threatening, but I also would not have confronted the person.

If I weren't sure if the person was planning to attack me I would consider it potentially scary, but not a direct, explicit threat to my life. I would probably politely ask at least once for the person to identify themselves or stop following me, and if they didn't, I would run to a safe place (and call the authorities).

It's safer to avoid confrontation if you don't know what is going on and have a clear way to get out potential trouble.

Nothing prevented Martin from asking Zimmerman to stop following him, or from running away, or from calling the police himself. He chose to attack Zimmerman out of the blue, so he was the one who initiated the physical confrontation and threatened Zimmerman's life.

What Zimmerman did was perfectly lawful. What Martin did wasn't.

FFS, the 911 operator asked, 'can you see him now?', and Zimmerman said, 'no -- let me look around the corner' or something to that effect. Also, it was after sunset and the rain was coming down in sheets.

For the last time: Zimmerman was not trying to initiate an encounter -- we was trying to get the cops to come out and approach Martin.

Martin and Brown both went out of their way to pick a fist fight with someone holding a gun. They were stupid, and their stupidity got them killed. End of story.

First of all he has escalated the situation into foot pursuit, loses him, and instead going directly back to his vehicle, turns up the path to look for him.That is stalking him and it's only natural to consider that as aggressive threatening behavior.
Furthermore, when people say that Martin doubled back and attacked Zimmerman, that's only Zimmerman's account of what happened. No one else witnessed the confrontation. I don't believe anything that dickless twat says without other evidence, especially considering his other violent bizarre behavior unless there is corroborative evidence.
On the other hand you have a well dressed person versus a kid dressed like a thug, at least according to certain Slymepit fashion critics.
My thought is that if John D had been on patrol that night, he would have been wearing tights and a cape, and Martin would have realized he was a good guy and not a threat. :dance:

Oh, come off it. I know you're being partly tongue-in-cheek, but still. Having two particular cases where you defend a white guy shooting a black guy as acting in self defense implies that you believe all cases of a white guy shooting a black guy are justified? That accusation seems to stem psychologically from the reverse: that any time a white man shoots a black man, racism must play a major role. I thought we'd need JacquesCuze for that. ;)

Here's a recent example of a white man who shot a black man, claiming he felt threatened, where he was most justifiably found guilty. Closer to where I live, here's an example of a cop shooting an ethnic minority (Arab, in this case), where the officer has been charged with murder 2, justifiably in my opinion.

Here comes the science. Martin was a teenager. He, even if the most level head person in the world, had poor impulse control. Zimmerman was in his 30s. Nevermind life experience, his ability to make decisions were just better. His mind was mature.

Am I saying that somehow means that Zimmerman guilty? No, he was not guilty of a crime. Martin was. Am I saying that Zimmerman should have been able to anticipate an issue and could have took steps that would have prevented the death of another human being? Fuck ya I am.

Also has Zimmerman proven to be a complete piece of shit after this indecent? Yeah.

Gay rights, open abortion clinics & taking care of the poor is all fine & dandy, but as soon as legislation starts to be pushed that actually threatens you... well you might start thinking about switching sides.

Fine, but "following" /= "engaging".

Anyway, even had GZ done it (he didn't'), "challenging" a stranger is legal. What's streng Verboten under SJW Sharia: suspecting a young black man you've never seen before who's wandering aimlessly through your neighborhood while it's raining cats and fucking dogs of possibly being a burglar when your neighborhood has been victimized by a spate of burglaries & home invasions committed by young men.

The fact that Martin actually was a burglar, but was probably just out smoking a joint that night, only adds to the irony and pathos of the story.

I was only a bit disappointed, because reporting people would have left me getting a black eye from some thug. I figured that it was no business of mine if a 6th grade thug jay-walked. It was his life... fuckem if he got hit by a truck. Haha... I really didn't care for thugs... even then. Hit by a truck! Cool!

When the lights are out, black = white = a well shaped carrot found in the produce aisle. Either way, I'm going to turn over and fall asleep when I'm done. :D

Photo goof of the century! Looks quite real, even if unnaturally endowed, until what's in the circle becomes clear. :lol:

According to CNN that was his stepfather who did that, not his father who is one of the people that has been calling for only peaceful protests.

That's not fucking "stalking." Stalking has a legal definition. Zimmerman did not stalk. Zimmerman was in his own goddamn neighborhood. He had a legal right to go wherever the fuck he wanted. He had a legal right to walk right up to Martin and say: "Hey, you -- what the hell are you doing around here?' Martin had the legal right to say, "fuck you, old man -- I live here.' Martin did not have the legal right to approach Zimmerman, knock him to the ground and wail on him.

If Zimmerman would have shot the author of the Da Vinci files then I would consider that justifiable homicide. :bjarte:

The videos are a laugh riot to watch. They dump gallons of "cum" on those poor hardworking girls.
