I haven't followed it as closely as you but I thought the only blood on GZ belonged to GZ.
that part might be true, especially because he was the only one really attacked in the situation.

Conversely some people believe that provoking a confrontation that costs someone their life, even if there was no fore thought or malice by the person doing the killing is still a crime, if not murder.
Self defense is not a reasonable defense for manslaughter Grind. It is for murder but not manslaughter.
From what I've seen so far, and based on the facts, the prosecution has a fairly strong case for a manslaughter conviction and pretty weak case for murder and if they persue a manslaughter conviction. I'd also say that at this time they could make a good argument for voluntary manslaughter and they have an excellent case for involuntary manslaughter.
and that is what all this comes down to. People that don't believe one has a right to self defense when they are getting the shit beat out of them.

You know it was raining....wet grass, wet ground, wet clothes.....
You think its unrealistic take Martin didn't have blood not him...or impossible....?
A well placed punch can kill.Insignificant injuries
He did nt get the shit beat out of him.
Grind, when and how did he cock the gun? Did he already have it cocked when he pursued Trayvon?
I don't know about hand guns, I don't know how he would be able to cock the gun while Trayvon was on top of him doing all the things he claimed Trayvon was doing.
I haven't seen a reenactment of the struggle.
you guys need to basically just deny a shit load of evidence to even come close to believing team travyvons side of the story. Everything zimmerman has said is consistent and matches up with expert testimony. There is not a single thing in the past 3 weeks involving the altercation that has been definitively disproven. Not one thing.
Unrealistic if he really was shot at close range. The forensic guy said he could have lost half his blood supply in the first two minutes.
Ever seen a bleed out?What is the possibility of TM's blood spatter on GZ, if GZ shot him at close range? The specialist testified: "You are losing 1,500 cc's {cubic centimeters) in a minute. That's about a quarter of his blood supply. In a second minute, if you can assume the same rate. Actually the heart would probably be beating faster for the second minute. He is going to lose another 1,500. Well that means he has lost more than 50%of his blood supply."

According to the States witness, but the ME testified today that just because you don't see outward injuries, internally you can still have a "stunning" effect and feel immense pain. To claim self defense, it's about the reasonable fear of death or grave bodily injury. The world renowned ME testified to that today that you can have injuries that may not look bad but could present a great risk, and injuries that look awful but are meaningless.
Listen to the States witness carter (i think that's his name). He said it wouldn't be advisable to wait until you are dead before defending yourself. I agree.
The world renowned ME today disagreed, he said it's very reasonable and likely that someone in that position could have internal injuries and stunning in the brain.
I dont know how guns work so I can't really answer this. If it needed to be cocked I doubt it takes very long. Maybe I am mistaken.
Could have....the operative word being could....
There are many things that 'could have' happened, thats why we rely on the physical evidence to a great degree......
Most of TM's bleeding would have been internal....

I agree but I think the evidence is pretty clear that he's not guilty of murder as the prosecution hasn't really established premeditation or deliberation on Zimmermans part.No, it still doesn't justify the shooting.

How ever it isn't a stretch at all to argue that Zimmerman did improperly use reasonable care or skill.
In other words cause this nimrod was a moron with a gun (and that's not meant as a cheap shot at gun owners.) and an authority complex and behaved like the complete amatuer dipshit that he is and a young man died.
Let me explain it to you in a formula you can dig;
Zimmerman = moron
Moron + gun = bad idea
Moron + gun + wanna be cop syndrome = dead niger
Yea...I aint got a problem holding a moron like Zimmerman to account for being stupid. His stupidity cost someone their life. This is less about race and nothing to do with gun laws. It's about some moron (Zimmerman) doing something stupid that got someone killed (Trayvon).
I wouldn't rule out an involuntary manslaughter conviction.
Did TM have the right to confront his follower, yes or no?
A well placed punch can killThe one police woman, I believe she was police, demonstrated you needed both hands to load a bullet into the chamber of Zimmerman's gun. I guess this is a question for Billy.
There is no evidence that Trayvon threw the first punch, only Zimmerman's testimnony and I believe they do not considered tat it a fact.
Zimmerman did not go to the hospital, did not have a concussion.
Do you think anyone in a fist fight and hta few times will now have the right to shoot another and claim self defense?
