uhh...HELLO.. this kid was walking alone at night being followed by a grown man armed with a gun... are you hypocrites ?? How can you totally ignore the fact that MAYBE just maybe this kid was acting in self defense himself???? It negates your argument.

He was carrying concealed, so the gun wasnt an issue until it got pointed and fired... (for a reason i assume)

no, it's a proven fact that zimmerman was STALKING this kid like he was hunting a deer. proven fact that zimmerman is a racist blood bathing maniac. it's a proven fact that trayvon martin was an innocent 8th grader who did absolutely nothing wrong. after all, it should be everybodies first instinct to assault anybody who is following you so you can flex your "swag".

So many people on this thread have clearly already convicted Zimmerman or found him innocent. You should be ashamed of yourselves. You come to ATS claiming to be open-minded and seekers of truth, yet you've made your decision based on what? Media coverage, that's what!!! My gosh, I hope if I ever have something that goes to trial I don't end up with you people on the jury! It's a sad day when people make up their minds before a case has even been established and presented.

it goes both ways. a lot of people here are also using the same information to justify the killing of a teenager.

Trayvon displayed bad judgment in striking a would be assailant, but Zimmerman is brave for confronting a black person walking home? I suppose Trayvon was going to use the empty aluminum can to shatter the thick glass window, and the skittles wrapper to disable the alarm system of a home, i mean there had been burglary's in the area right? To me, Zimmerman fabricated his position, created the situation, and caused the death of another person out of self-delusional paranoia.

Mississippi authorities are urging drivers to be wary when being pulled over by a police officer after two people were shot and killed by someone police think could be posing as a cop to get motorists to stop.
Now if you can PLEASE point out all the links that state what you're saying to be fact? If not, there is a "rant" section for people like you who have it ALL figured out...!

You sound like a racist to me... So you assume everyone that don't buy into the whole emotional racially driven crap the media has turned this into is white, and racist?
He was black, he was big, he was 6'2, he had a gold grill, he had a hood on, his grades were bad, he just was suspended, he was throwing up gang signs on his face book, he was walking in a rich neighborhood, and he weighs 220 pounds.

Just being honest and if you look at the thread im talking about that’s 99.8% of every body’s thought that fit in the>>> He was black, he was big, he was 6'2, he had a gold grill, he had a hood on, his grades were bad, he just got suspended, he was throwing up gang signs on his face book, he was walking in a rich neighborhood, he weighs 220 pounds.
Justifications in percentage of why George is innocent.
23%>> He was 6'2
10%>> He was bigger then George.
Three %>> He had a gold grill.
14% OMG .look at him throwing up gang signs on face book
37% Well! He clearly is bigger then George.
I will not even get into the... well-maintained, very well written, subliminal ,exotic, exquisite, 'indirect replies' do to his skin color and the validation of him being shot.
Would you like me to show you what I am talking about or will you look for your self ,not just that thread, every thread on the subject.
IT is what is, Its human nature in all the colors that god put upon this earth.why sugar coat it?
Its human nature
Can you 'literally' imagine IF 'SOME ONE KILLED ONE' of your family members and the justifications that people thought was because of...PURE IGNORANCE?
He was black, he was big, he was 6'2, he had a gold grill, he had a hood on, his grades were bad, he just was suspended, he was throwing up gang signs on his face book, he was walking in a rich neighborhood, and he weighs 220 pounds.
I’m neither white or black, its about the reality of a situation, skin color has nothing to do with this event, and that’s what wrong with the ‘% ’ justification in the skin branch of the matrix dealing with this case….
‘ITS HIGHLY OVER EXAGGERATED AND HIGHLY OVERATED IN LIFE….OF THE MANY’

It's not an instruction, it's a request.
Next to that emergency service operators have NO authority! They give ADVICE and act as a gateway, that's it!
