Interesting, hope you guys never give anyone the wrong impressed about your intentions, could get nasty.

Wrong impression??--you mean that while I bash your head repeatedly into the concrete street and hit you in the face, while pinning you down so you can not escape, and being larger and stronger than you, with the potential of killing you if I do not stop, while I am trespassing in a gated neighborhood where I do not live, where a number of break-ins and violent crimes had occurred, late at night....that I am at most, just a minor burglar??

yep, it is one of the many things that made this country great. You do not have to allow yourself to be murdered/raped/otherwise brutalized if you have the means to defend yourself. Martin should have went home; he had 4-5 minutes to do so when it would have taken him no more than 30-40 seconds to walk it. Being a concerned neighbor, a busybody , or wanna-be cop are not illegal. Assaulting someone is, even if that someone is just a "cracker", as Martin put it.

Markabilly, pursue me with a gun and let me get close enough to have your head in my hands and they'll be scraping your brains off the pavement, just saying :)

Zimmerman lived in the complex, Martin did not. Zimmerman was a volunteer in the neighborhood watch program along with others as the cops were always too slow to do anything. Zimmerman did not pull a gun until down on the ground, being hit by "martial art style blows".---No evidence that Martin had any idea that Zimmerman had a gun. -------- Zimmerman had seen martin about three minutes earlier and had attempted to watch Martin, and called the police. Police as usual said, we will get there whenever, go back to your car. Zimmerman was doing that, having lost contact of Martin. Zimmerman was close to his car, when Martin approached and attacked him. The "hunter" had become the hunted. Martin could have done what he was doing...disappearing, apparently after dumping his burglar tools in the bushes, but chose to double back and attack Zimmerman. If Martin had attacked Daniel, Daniel would not have been able to scrape up Daniel's own brains from the concrete street---just saying.....and of course, Daniel's demise would have been only brief local news as are many other such murders.

He has a legal right to carry a gun; it's enshrined in our constitution even. And you would really be dumb enough to attack someone with a gun? Save the bluster for the naive or ignorant. Martin thought zimmerman was an easy mark. He wanted to be a thug and he died like a thug.

How would he have attacked me? I'd have stayed in my car :rotflmao: Go looking for trouble and more often than not, you'll find it.
