Someone at the Sanford police station leaked video of a seemingly uninjured Zimmermanat the police station on the night he killed Martin. Thoughts?

Hmm interesting. I have not seen that yet, I will go read. IMO, even if he was getting his butt kicked, I still don't think it justifies him shooting and killing him. BUT, as more information comes out my opinion could change or not. I'm not jumping on the bandwagon.

If someone was following me all suspicious-like, I would like to think I had the right to protect myself. *if* Trayvon did turn around and approach Zimmerman and a fight broke out, maybe it was because some weirdo was following him... I don't think that makes it okay to kill him.

His story has sounded off to me the whole time. I keep waiting for some info to come out to support it, and it doesn't. I think he's a wanna be vigilante who set up that situation to end badly, and I don't think he has any justification for shooting that kid.

Zimmerman should hae never engaged the kid - he was specifically told to back off by the 911 operator.
Rumor has it Zimmerman's family has Law enforcement/courthouse ties and he's had several assault charges dropped in the past.

I just read about that. His father was a magistrate or something and his mother was a court clerk. He sure looks good in that video for someone who had a broken nose hours before.

I honestly have not followed this case very much.

AND, Geraldo Rivera (aka Jerry Rivers-his birth name - yeah he's a Brooklyn Jew, not a Puerto Rican from the Bronx) should be strung up by his short hairs.
Apparently he's unaware the youth of America walk around in hoodies with the hood ON their heads - even in the middle of the summer. It doesn't make them thugs, it makes them kids.

I wear hoodies when I walk at night. I'm pretty fucking gangsta if I do say so myself.

His lawyers dropped him, due to "lack of contact." Has anyone heard of that happening before? I don't know any lawyers to ask.
