"Even though the Sanford Police didn't get to finish their investigation, it's like what Sheriff Lee said, they didn't arrest GZ because no charges were justified. However, the outside agitators ran Lee out of office and got the these bogus charges." There is discussion on here about something that has been POLITICAL from the STOPPING OF THE POLICE INVESTIGATION to ignoring the initial investigation. Meetings held to discuss and hear the 911 tapes with only the Martin family and their lawyers present and NO POLICE presence in the office of an elected political official. This trial has been tainted from the beginning. You mentioned other trials...at least they had a complete, unfettered, uninterrupted non political investigation. |

Judge Nelson rules jury can charge manslaughter and will rule later on third degree felony murder after studying case law. If
convicted of murder three, Zimmerman will face life in prison under 10-20-life rule. |

Save yourself!
I think if we put ourselves in GZ position, we would have done the same thing in the end. His life was in danger and luckily he had a means to defend himself. If I were on the ground with someone beating on me I wouldn't wait to see how long I could take the beating. GZ could have passed put from the blow to the nose or from his head being slammed on the concrete. Then, Trayvon could have taken his gun and shot him. I am going to save myself and answer questions later. GZ had no choice but to shoot TM. I wish it would have never happened.....

(3) A person who is not engaged in an unlawful activity and who is attacked in any other place where he or she has a right to be has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force if he or she reasonably believes it is necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony. As you see, it says 'the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force', etc. If you were watching the trial today, you would have seen how important it is to have every comma and every period in place. I'm getting dizzy from all the SPIN! |
Why I do not watch this trial...
"To the extent that the trial has any larger meaning, it is a tale of the left’s desperation to indict contemporary America as a land of rank racism, different in degree, perhaps, but not in kind from 1950s Mississippi. That’s where Emmett Till, to whom Trayvon Martin has often been compared, was brutally murdered for whistling at a white woman." "But that doesn’t make him a murderer. There was always a perverse wishfulness to the Zimmerman-haters: Look how rotten and backward this country is. Look at what white-Hispanics are capable of. Look at the corruption of our criminal-justice system. Look at this poor child murdered in cold blood. MSNBC tried and convicted Zimmerman, executed him by firing squad, then propped the body up at the defense table so it could do it all over again. Host Lawrence O’Donnell said Zimmerman shot “a black teenager to death for having done absolutely nothing,” and opined that “I believe what we have here is evidence of a police cover-up.” At a rally, another of the network’s personalities, the Rev. Al Sharpton, compared the injustice done to Martin to the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ — and that may have been one of his cooler-headed moments."

But thanks to the media he is already sentenced to life in the American public's mind as a racist. NBC edited a tape of Zimmerman’s call to police as he was following Martin to make him appear to be focused on Martin’s race."

Bill Lee, who testified Monday in Zimmerman's second-degree murder trial, told CNN's George Howell in an exclusive interview that he felt pressure from city officials to arrest Zimmerman to placate the public rather than as a matter of justice. "It was (relayed) to me that they just wanted an arrest. They didn't care if it got dismissed later," he said. "You don't do that."

It does not say that you can shoot another human being simply because you are standing you ground. |
