Trayvon Martin Video Shows No Blood or Bruises on George Zimmerman

Quote from volente_00:

I find it hard to believe that a 140 lb athlete could not outrun an overweight 250 lb man that was 10 years older than him. My guess is he lost him and then pulled over and got out of his truck and then the kid rushed him from behind to start the confrontation. If the kid wanted to run away he would have. Instead he chose to fight.

So there is a requirement now that if you are a black teenager then you are required to run away from anyone is pursuing you?

In the cell call with his girlfriend, Martin said he was just going to walk fast. And then he asked Zimmerman why Zimmerman was following him.

"He said this man was watching him, so he put his hoodie on. He said he lost the man," Martin's friend said. "I asked Trayvon to run, and he said he was going to walk fast. I told him to run, but he said he was not going to run."

Eventually, he would run, said the girl, thinking that he'd managed to escape. But suddenly the strange man was back, cornering Martin.

"Trayvon said, 'What are you following me for,' and the man said, 'What are you doing here.' Next thing I hear is somebody pushing, and somebody pushed Trayvon because the head set just fell. I called him again, and he didn't answer the phone."

...And let me tell you...Every day, in my martial arts class, I punch a 15 year old sandbag (which is like punching cement and if you've ever punched a really old sandbag, you know what I mean) I have to punch that thing about 20 times before my knuckles get red and the redness goes away after a few minutes. I think many of you have never been in a fight before...You hit a soft target on the face (like a nose), you are not going to bruise your knuckles one bit...
You have no idea what you are talking about. Judging by your response, you have never been in an actual, uncontrolled fight aside from maybe getting your ass kicked by your 15-year-old "sandbag."
 
Quote from 377OHMS:

My hands always looked like hell after a fight, not bruised but lacerated and scraped, once my left pinkie was bent 90 degrees outboard at the first knuckle.

I'm so sorry to hear that, how is your pinkie finger now ? . :( .
 
Quote from Lucrum:

You're coming across as someone desperate to defend Trayvon at all costs, including ignoring facts and evidence.

Actually I am one of the few in the threads citing the facts and evidence. Others come across desperate to defend Zimmerman while casting aspersions on all factual evidence. (e.g. Funeral Director for 30 years is obviously not qualified to make statements about dead bodies, Trayvon's girlfriend is obviously lying about her cell phone conversation because she has an agenda, etc.).

All most rational people like myself are asking for in this case is that a proper police investigation occurs and the results are driven by a competent DA to a grand jury. The grand jury can either indict or not indict. If they indict there will be a trial with jury. I will accept the results of a proper legal process.

This is going to occur now that the Sanford PD (which is about to lose its state certification for a long string of failures) has been removed from this case along with the local prosecutor. The FDLE and new prosecutor will be handling all aspects of this case.
 
Quote from CaptainObvious:

Here's the deal. So long as the MSM chooses to lead every story with a picture of Trayvon as a 12 year old, all stories that follow are suspect. Let's have all the facts and photo's, not just the ones that suit their agenda. I still have my doubts that Zimmerman is wholely innocent, but "Little Trey" was destined for a bullet one way or the other.

You do realize all the 'gangster' pictures of Trayvon are discredited fakes.

I think the state of florida owes zimmerman some money for saving it the costs of his wasted education and future imprisonment charges.

Same goes for key Federal govt officials: Those in the Justice dept should be held personally liable for failing to prosecute the BP and be financially responsible for providing for his personal safety.
 
Quote from Grandluxe:

I thought your first post on this issue insinuated that Zimmerman was guilty as sin? Wearing a hoodie in most countries by any race is very much construed as anti-social behavior, this is also the case in Europe. There is no need to make racial arguments here.

Anyway I agree they are going to make an example out of Zimmerman regardless of his guilt.

So wearing a hoodie in the rain is now 'construed as anti-social behavior'.

I am lucky that all those other parents did not beat me up and shoot me at the kids' soccer games for being an anti-social deviant.

// Oh wait... this rule only applies if I'm black?

Angela McRobbie, professor of communications at Goldsmiths College in the UK, says the appeal of the hoodie is because of its promise of anonymity, mystery and anxiety.

"The point of origin is obviously black American hip-hop culture, now thoroughly mainstream and a key part of the global economy.

Rap culture celebrates defiance, as it narrates the experience of social exclusion.

Stylistically, it projects menace and danger as well as anger and rage. The hooded top is one in a long line of garments chosen by young people, usually boys, to which are ascribed meanings suggesting that they are 'up to no good'."

Then-UK Prime Minister Tony Blair openly supported this stance and vowed to clamp down on the anti-social behaviour with which hoodie wearers are sometimes associated.
