Well, if you can't see it you are not human unless you relate to the gansta image that photo portrays. Frankly, if I saw him coming I wold cross the street. Most likely, if I was in his neighborhood I would run. Again, we live in the real world. Not some lala land where people don't have manners or street smarts.

So you are saying all 17 year old kids flip off the camera in a iced out grill and wife beater?
I mean Treyvon was tying very hard to fit the stereo type "Then wonders why he is being followed " yet he is some innocent kid that just so happened to do burglaries, umm yeah perfectly normal kid all right
I don't know about you but I certainly don't let my kids act that way and pursue a life of crime and drugs.
This is unacceptable
edit : would you like me to go to facebook and find random photos of teens that do not act/look this way?edit on 2-4-2012 by Unknown Soldier because: (no reason given)

An innocent, like it or not, that is a fact, an innocent teenager was gunned down for no reason
Innocent? Oh yes what a sweet innocent little boy LOL
Treyvon is not innocent because of
some goofy pictures, he is not innocent
because last time i checked assault was a crime
treyvon is not innocent in THIS case.
Proof?
Eye witness accounts did you not read the op?
Missed the police report and the injuries on zimmerman too?
Zimmerman did not hit himself
people came running out of there homes right after the shot
eye witness accounts saw treyvon hitting zimmerman
So treyvon is not innocent in this case. People
calling him innocent are ignoring the fact he assaulted
someone...

Ok give me a break! Go back to nursery school already. Learn the sticks and stones rhyme and learn to run. Get over yourself... "He was attaked via a verbal assult" LOL I have been called names and I never once felt my life was in danger! You are funny!
"fighting words" such as the "N" word, are absolutely considered an assault in american law.
Nice try though.
Mostly only black people are calling each other N_GG_R, how come they can? Are they special? Different? How come they can say it and nobody else on the planet can?
This disturbs me greatly
There is not a black man or woman born in the United States in the last 100 years that can claim they are a slave more that anyone else.
I am white and a veteran. Yet I have less opportunity. WHY?
Why do you want to use the N word? Who would you direct it at?

I'm not saying the kid was wrong doing that. I am saying he was wrong when he stopped walking and decided to launch an attack. He engaged and he shouldn't have. You don't engage someone when you don't have the tools to back it up. I hope its a lesson a lot of these "tough guys" learn from this.
1)you claimed i was backpeddling. Why wont you back that claim up and tell me what I backpeddled on, as opposed to dodging the challenge?
2)There are multiple witnesses, not all corroborate zimmerman. Nice try though.
3)Yes, because the grand jury always investigates things that have absolutely no case at all and are cut and dry
4)Not true. If that were the case, you would not be speculating with everything you say.

Tom Owen, forensic consultant for Owen Forensic Services LLC and chair emeritus for the American Board of Recorded Evidence, used voice identification software to rule out Zimmerman. Another expert contacted by the Sentinel, utilizing different techniques, came to the same conclusion. Zimmerman claims self-defense in the shooting and told police he was the one screaming for help. But these experts say the evidence tells a different story. 'Scientific certainty' ......... Before the shot, one of them can be heard screaming for help.
Owen, a court-qualified expert witness and former chief engineer for the New York Public Library's Rodgers and Hammerstein Archives of Recorded Sound, is an authority on biometric voice analysis — a computerized process comparing attributes of voices to determine whether they match. After the Sentinel contacted Owen, he used software called Easy Voice Biometrics to compare Zimmerman's voice to the 911 call screams. "I took all of the screams and put those together, and cut out everything else," Owen says. The software compared that audio to Zimmerman's voice. It returned a 48 percent match. Owen said to reach a positive match with audio of this quality, he'd expect higher than 90 percent.
"As a result of that, you can say with reasonable scientific certainty that it's not Zimmerman," Owen says,
stressing that he cannot confirm the voice as Trayvon's, because he didn't have a sample of the teen's voice to compare. Forensic voice identification is not a new or novel concept; in fact, a recent U.S. Department of Justice committee report notes that federal interest in the technology "has a history of nearly 70 years." In the post 9-11 world, Owen says, voice identification is "the main biometric tool" used to track international criminals, as well as terrorists. "These people don't leave fingerprints, but they do still need to talk to one another," he says. 'The home run' Though the term "biometric analysis" may sound futuristic, it basically just means using personal characteristics for identification. A fingerprint scanner is an example of a biometric device. Much as the ridges of a human hand produce a fingerprint, each human voice has unique, distinguishable traits, Owen says. "They're all particular to the individual." Another benefit of modern biometric analysis, Owen said, is it doesn't require an "in context" comparison. In other words, Owen didn't need a sample of Zimmerman screaming in order to compare his voice to the call. The technology Owen used to analyze the Zimmerman tape has a wide range of applications, including national security and international policing, he said. A recently as January, Owen used the same technology to identify accused murderer Sheila Davalloo in a 911 call made almost a decade ago. Owen testified that it was Davalloo, accused of stabbing another woman nine times in a condo in Shippan, Conn., who reported the killing to police from a pay phone in November 2002. Davalloo was convicted, according to news reports. Owen says the audio from Zimmerman's call is much better quality than the 911 call in the Davalloo case. Voice identification experts judge the quality based on a signal-to-noise ratio; in other words, comparing the usable audio in a clip to the environmental noises that make a match difficult. And the call on which the screams are heard is better quality than is necessary, Owen says. "In our world, that's the home run," he says. Not all experts rely on biometrics. Ed Primeau, a Michigan-based audio engineer and forensics expert, is not a believer in the technology's use in courtroom settings. He relies instead on audio enhancement and human analysis based on forensic experience.
After listening closely to the 911 tape on which the screams are heard, Primeau also has a strong opinion. "I believe that's Trayvon Martin in the background, without a doubt," Primeau says, stressing that the tone of the voice is a giveaway. "That's a young man screaming."

Now you are just being silly. You want me to post random photos of teenagers from a social network sight, Seriously? Is this even within TOS? Seems you are just trolling at this point.I am not going to post pics of minors without consent it is illegal. Buy anyone with common sense knows wht I mean.
2)There are multiple witnesses, not all corroborate zimmerman. Nice try though.
source?
3)Yes, because the grand jury always investigates things that have absolutely no case at all and are cut and dry
Sure they do, contraversy like this if people are almost rioting and calling for civil unrest ect it is perfectly logical to conduct an investigation if it will remedy the situation. It is perfectly logical
4)Not true. If that were the case, you would not be speculating with everything you say.

I say this only to make my point, but I sure hope Zimmerman never gets a chance to follow your child. I bet you would feel much different about this situation if it was you child.
