| killerzX said: yes we will, zimmerman back of his head was cut and bloody, he had a broken nose. martin had bruising on his knuckles, and a gun shot wound to the chest. as for the street thug, there is zero evidence that zimmerman was looking for "black kids". but the "kid" who was known for getting in fights at school and constantly getting in trouble at school, and doing drugs, and displaying on social media his love for the gangster life (also evident by the people he surrounded himself with, his friends). yes someone is dead, for assaulting someone. is zimmerman didnt have his weapon theres a good chance he would be dead. |
And the "guy" was known for assaulting a POLICE OFFICER, resisting arrest, domestic violence, and being a self styled crime fighter/wannabe cop (as evident by his CRIMINAL RECORD--something Martin didn't have yet-- and the people he surrounded himself with). There's a reason that the jury wasn't allowed to know anything about the character of either person. Why people seem to think that Zimmerman was this mild and innocent babe of a man and a man of such strong moral fiber is beyond me! Neither was as pure as the driven snow. People seem to remember the things they want to remember, here.
What's done is done, and as an American, I accept the judgement. The man is free and I hope he goes on to live a productive life. I just wish it wasn't such a dividing issue right now. I wish these two guys weren't the ones that we were arguing over.
