How did Zimmerman know about Martin's history??? You mentioned common sense? So, i guess common sense told Zimmerman, that a black person wearing a hoodie was a criminal waiting for his next victim??? Again, WHY DIDN'T ZIMMERMAN DO, WHAT MOST PEOPLE WOULD HAVE DONE, and CALL THE COPS?? WHY DID MR. ZIMMERMAN TAKE MATTERS INTO HIS OWN HANDS?????? It seems to me, like he was LOOKING for trouble.

I'm afraid you are completely wrong. He made a pretty casua (rather than quick) trip to the gas station. Just because you want to ignore Martins history and disregard Zimmerman out of bias doesn't mean you are correct. Zimmerman tried to keep a location on Martin to tell dispatch then he stopped when they said they didn't need to. He wasn't trying to be a hero just stop crime near his home (he had already stopped a burglary). I agree he shouldn't have gotten out, but only to protect himself, he comitted no crime in doing so. The only crime comitted that night was Trayvon assaulting Martin.

"Pro-Trayvon camp"? I think the whole case wreaks of B.S., personally speaking.

I've seen that. Pretty irrelevant to the case, but the pro Trayvon camp are using it to incite outrage. Kinda the only thing you can do (and the kind of thing you have to rely on) when you have no case.
It’s been answered do your homework.
Why did Zimmerman get out of his car???
Why was he FOLLOWING Martin?
Did NON-EMERGENCY really need to tell him not to follow Trayvon?
This whole thing starts with one person standing around, in the rain...and another person interpreting that as "suspicious behavior". 5-0 should have been called THEN.
..not after someone is shot. All that drama going on, in such a crowded community, and NO ONE called the cops, til after the gun went off?
People are sensitive about loud music after 10p.m., never mind a fist fight going on, and no one calls the police?

Oh, not only that...but AFTER Trayvon was shot in the heart....he managed to still beat up George, with his face towards the ground and George on top of him??

It is not hard to figure out. Again using common sense he reach for his gun with his hands and fired off a shot into the chest of his attacker on top of him. It's obvious and all evidence suggests it's true.
Yeah! Especially after his head was being slammed into the cement. Could you imagine what that would have felt like or done to his dome??? If his head was slammed into the concrete, how come there were no lumps? I saw a small little cut, but nothing that showed his head being slammed into the cement.

What is your explanation for why George was suddenly able to gain any control of his firearm, bearing in mind how totally ineffective his defending himself had been up to the pointedit on 29-6-2013 by IvanAstikov because: (no reason given)

If Zimmerman goes free, who will be responsible if riots break-out??

The law does not say if you are getting your rear handed to you as a result of your own aggression, you are allowed to equal the playing field by using a firearm.

You just don't think things through. Do you really think there are going to be riots?? I would not think so.
