He confronted the kid first. It's the lone ranger mindset. Aggressive behavior + guns = stupidity. Zimmerman created that whole situation and the events that followed.
I was not there. Zimmerman didn't testify. I'm not sure how you know what happened.

You all are jumping on the bandwagon for team Zimmerman? Wow. You all do know since that trial he has beat the **** out of his girlfriend and has been involved in two other altercations, one involving shots fired, right?

Didn't you learn anything from watching all those shootem up westerns we watched years ago? Think of how many of those showed Mr. Badguy stroll in with guns blazing only to have Mr.Goodguy draw and take him out.
Hahahahaa

He doesn't know. The facts don't matter to people like him. The jury saw all the testimony and knew more than me,you or that guy. I am sure that stupidity did indeed play a part in the unfortunate incident that lead to a loss of a life.

My parents bought me a set encyclopedias titled How It Works. Even as a juvenile I could have built something with far more potential to harm than one could achieve with a semi-automatic assault rifle

That's like saying cancer can be worse than diabetes; thus no need for any more diabetes research

No. But saying more gun control measures will curb mass killings is like saying people with stage 4 cancer will be cured if we treat them for diabetes.

I didn't know there was a team Zimmerman. I simply said Zimmerman is a bad example since he was acquitted. And even if it is a fact that Zimmerman is a bad person that doesn't mean he was guilty of a crime against Martin.

Probably should have used a different relationship. Research is showing the relationship between diabetes and some cancers so the two can't really be separated literally (but I sense your point).

I agree. Stop researching diabetes if your research intentions lead you to investigate the most devastating outcomes of the two. Cancer is far more deadly in the immediate outcome then diabetes, especially type II. Someone interested in researching the effects of a bomb probably doesn't need to research a rifle any more. It really goes to the intent why research occurs.
