Sometimes the armed citizen protector isn't a good thing.

Sure but it also brings into question If the first person really needed to be shot or if you had a teenager with an itchy trigger finger looking for an excuse to shoot?
And the people after that . . . from their perspective were they not trying to stop a person who they had just witnessed kill another man?
Reading is fundamental.
Does the evidence support Trump's version of events? Yes or no?
The evidence did not support Zimmerman's account to the police. I realize you desperately want him to be innocent, but you have to dismiss that little problem...so you do.
If the evidence did not support Zs account he would have been found guilty. It's you who can not accept the jury's decision. You can't accept it because politics. I feel for you.
My go-to comic strip every morning. Pastis is a genius.
KR had no idea who these people were when he shot them. Not sure how that matters. He had a gun and they didn't. Now, they were all dumb or trying to be heros in stopping him after he shot someone. I wouldn't rick my life chasing a loon with a gun.
LOL...you're kidding right? You have GOT to be kidding.
Again - for the slow learners in the group...Zimmerman's story to the police did not match the evidence from either the 911 call nor the physical evidence from the scene. How the prosecution f'ed that up, no idea, but they did.
Are you actually claiming a prosecutor, or the police have never screwed up a case and allowed a guilty person to go free? That would be an interesting claim.
So was OJ Simpson. Apparently you support that verdict as well.
A dead giveaway of a scared little boy inside.
I've said this before and I'll say it again. There's a chunk of these "gun guys" that just look for reasons to shoot someone, but at the same time are scared of ever being in danger. So shit like this happens.
Yes, I know not all "gun guys" are like this. Most know what they're doing with a firearm, and use it for the right reasons. But there's always those idiots that think they're cops because they have a firearm on them.
LOL...and you know that because...? Then explain how Martin's body was more than thirty feet from the point where Zimmerman claimed he shot him? Z says TM walked up to him on the sidewalk and sucker punched him. Zimmerman said he fell backward and TM jumped on top of him. The entire altercation took place at that point. Z shot TM and TM fell to the side. The problem was Martin's body was more than 30 feet south of that spot. It wasn't until police took Zimmerman back to the site to walk them through the event that the story changed from a sucker punch that knocked him down to a struggle that carried them to the point where the body was found.
But yeah...that's "open and shut"...for you.

"I know all the kids in my neighborhood, all of the adults in my neighborhood."
But he knew that a black kid, at night, in the rain, with a hoodie over his head...didn't belong. Open and shut.
"I didn't know the name of the street that l was on."
Uh huh...but he knows all the adults and all the children in the neighborhood and can't remember the names of the THREE streets in the neighborhood. He used that story as justification to exit his car to go find a street sign.
"I got out of my car to look for the street sign"
His claim was that he walked to Retreat View Circle to look for a sign. Yeah...do you wonder why he would need to do that when he lives on Retreat View Circle? But sure...open and shut.
"I didn't even see him getting ready to punch me. As soon as he punched me, I fell backwards, um, into the grass and he grabbed me."
And...again...the body was more than thirty feet from the spot where Zimmerman claimed that occurred. Very, very open and shut.
Damn. Maybe you're right. I bet the jury could have used this information. I wonder why they didn't get it.
No idea. I've made up not one thing. Every bit of that is factual information with quotes from Zimmerman the night of the shooting. The only question is whether, when presented with that, do YOU still think it was open and shut?
It was clearly self defense. Open and shut. Jury thought so as well. And they had ALL of the information. Not just the conspiracy theories.
What’s it like going all-in and dying on the hill of defending a total piece of sh*t?
Fugging acehole. A kid is dead. Prosecute to the nastiest degree.
Make an example of this murderer. Send him to the hole in a bad prison.
