Oh get out of here. That is so absurd.
That has no relevance. You just diminished any shred of credibility you had in here.
I could do the same thing. Next time a 5 foot tall female security guard is savagely beat and murdered because she was too afraid of the public hatred and lynch mob she would face if she defended herself with a gun I hope you think about that.
Seriously though, taking a moment from mimicking your idiocy, if Zimmerman had been a small woman but that was the only difference there would be no outcry whatsoever. Think about that. If he would have been black, there would have been no outcry. The only racial issue in this case, in reality, was the one created by the media and then swallowed up by you guys. "white man"
It doesn't appear that was happening

A lot of things could have happened.
Treyvon could have been annoyed he was being followed and decided to challenge Zimmerman. He may have thought he could get the better of Zimmerman and attacked him. At this point the gun could have been put into play. I doubt he would attack if Zimmerman had a gun drawn.
Just a possibility.
'annoyed he was being followed'.....um I would say more 'scared he was being followed by a man who was just watching in a large SUV'.....i mean .... annoyed, really? Would your reaction to that same situation be 'annoyed'?
Maybe Zimmerman was 'annoyed' at crime in his neighborhood and profiled a young teenager as a thief and decided to make sure 'this a'hole' didn't get away by all means possible.
More likely.
especially how it's been manipulated and invented to be more racial.
The edit in question, which aired on the network's flagship "Today" morning show last week, made it appear that Zimmerman told police that Martin was black without being prompted, when, in fact, the full tape reveals that the neighborhood watch captain only did so when responding to a question posed by a dispatcher.

Huh.. that's strange. Makes me want to visit Florida even less.
None of it matters though since it is a non issue and it is just your bias and a complete strawman. You have no real case or evidence so you start talking about whether it was possible his gun was accidentally visible and therefore he broke the law somehow? Or Trayvon caught a glimpse of his legally concealed but accidentally exposed gun and was justified in attacking him?
You are aware that concealed doesn't mean if someone glimpses it you break the law. It means not on your hip easily accessible. This was a non issue though. It was just complete nonsense you brought up because you have nothing else to argue with.

So you are going to give OJ the benefit of the doubt, but not Zimmerman? Even though OJ had bloody socks in his house, had been stalking his wife for the last few days, and was the one that took the police on a highspeed chase and was caught with physical evidence on him.
LOL.

Maybe a lot of things happen, but just reading through your posts it's easy to see how close minded and one sided you really are. You refuse to accept the possibility that Treyvon could in any way be guilty, when that's very much a possibility just as it is for Zimmerman. I've changed my view after seeing more information and especially how it's been manipulated and invented to be more racial. THAT in itself should throw up red flags for any thinking person.
I posted this knowing how you would respond, I just wanted others to see it too.

The eye witness that said trayvon was on top beating zimmerman up clinched it for me. Someone beating on someone while they are down show they lost control, so self defense is applicable. Only a scumbag, or someone who is not in control of themself beat on someone while they are down. Maybe his parents should have taught him some honor, he would still be alive then.
I am choosing to believe
