George Zimmerman's father on Trayvon Martin: My son is not racist, did not confront Trayvon Martin - South Florida Sun-Sentinel.com
George Zimmerman is Hispanic and grew up in a multiracial family, the statement says.
"He would be the last to discriminate for any reason whatsoever ...," the letter says. "The media portrayal of George as a racist could not be further from the truth."
Before an officer arrived, Trayvon and Zimmerman got into a fight, according to police, and witnesses heard one or both calling for help, and Zimmerman shot Trayvon once with a 9 mm handgun.
Zimmerman told police he acted in self-defense. Police found blood on his face and the back of his head as well as grass on the back of his shirt.
That jibes with what Cheryl Brown's teenage son witnessed while walking his dog that night. Thirteen-year-old Austin stepped out his front door and heard people fighting, he told the Orlando Sentinel on Thursday.
"I heard screaming and crying for help," he said. "I heard, 'Help me.' "
It was dark, and the boy did not see how the fight started, in fact, he only saw one person, a man in a red shirt Zimmerman who was on the ground.
you stand corrected.
Would you like to learn more?
Nearly half a million people have signed an online petition on change.org urging law enforcement officials to step in and arrest Zimmerman. Protest have played out in the Florida town all week with a large gathering expected Thursday.
Zimmerman blatantly violated major principles of the Neighborhood Watch manual, ABC News has learned. The manual from the Neighborhood Watch program states: "It should be emphasized to members that they do not possess police powers. And they shall not carry weapons or pursue vehicles."
According to Chris Tutko, the director of the National Neighborhood Watch program, there are about 22,000 registered watch groups nationwide, and Zimmerman was not part of a registered group, another fact the police were not aware of at the time of the incident.

You're making a fool of yourself, thumbs..
One more thing, if it was Zimmerman calling for help, why did the yelling stop after the shot was fired?
Kind of stupid to yell for help once your attacker has been shot and killed. Also, realizing what just happened tends to cause shock to set in.

Really?If the kid tried to go for Zimmerman's gun, he had every right to shoot him.
If someone with a gun was running after you and caught up to you, and you had the chance to grab or deflect it away, they'd be within their rights to shoot you?
Zimmerman was in his vehicle, got out to follow the teenager, Martin. WHY wasn't Zimmerman taken in for questioning? WAS HE? I am reading his current whereabouts are UNKOWN.
I hate repeating myself, especially to the same person.
ASK THE FUCKING COPS
he can't be found by you and me b/c of DEATH THREATS.
I do hope that sunk in.
FDLE will be asking the "cops", thank God.

I've read now the killer was taken into custody, briefly, then released. Whereabouts unknown.
One more thing, if it was Zimmerman calling for help, why did the yelling stop after the shot was fired?
Holy shit.
that's so dumb, I have to break my word.
He just shot his attacker and that stopped him from being attacked some more.
Only a crazy person would keep yelling for help.
thus whacking your "he's crazy" bit.
Florida changed their standard for justifiable use of deadly force in 2005. As it stands now, they have a "stand your ground" standard, which means one has no duty to retreat, but one must reasonably believe that using deadly force is necessary to prevent "imminent" use of deadly force against herself or others.Uh, no. One only has the right to use lethal force in response to lethal force. Grabbing at a person's firearm does not equal lethal force.
in that state, I think people have the right to use lethal force if their life is in danger. somebody reaching for your gun puts your life in danger.

And some prowler trying to grab your gun would be reasonable belief among the sane.
But not for a libtard, apparently.
Cant wait to see what the Holder DoJ will do about this.
Anyone care to bet this guy gets tried in federal court?

And of course the initial assumption was 'black kid gets shot, white racist did it' when in fact the shooter was not white but Hispanic. .
Turns out the new conservative Hero..and murderer..has an arrest record.
Though there are no enrollment records suggesting Zimmerman has attended a law-enforcement academy, he carried a concealed weapon and expressed his desire to wear a badge. He's currently enrolled in a general education program at Valencia Community College.
"I hold law enforcement officers in the highest regard as I hope to one day become one," Zimmerman wrote in a 2008 application to theSeminole County Sheriff's Officecitizen's law enforcement academy, a class that teaches citizens about policing and how the Sheriff's Office works.
Zimmerman was arrested in 2005 at a bar near the University of Central Florida on charges of assault on a law-enforcement officer and resisting arrest with violence. Both charges were ultimately dropped, according to court records.

Wannabe copper shoots an innocent kid with no arrest record for nothing..and walks free.
Man.
He was at his father's fiance's house. He went to 711 to get a snack. He was talking to a friend on the phone when the nutbar started following him. The friend on the phone told him to run. He said he wouldn't run but he started walking faster.I still haven't heard any facts about what Martin was doing in the gated community in the first place.
His mom says he was visiting a friend. Does this friend have a name? Does this friend have a tongue?
The kid didn't have a weapon. Shouldn't he deserve the same "innocent until proven guilty" as everyone else does?

Of course, but he isnt the one being accused of murder.
Why oh why do Republicants want a world where anyone can just shoot anyone anytime? They must be psychotic.

Man.
Because we all know that the only people who want to be cops are racist with the secret desire to kill a black teen.
Good God.
The kid didn't have a weapon. Shouldn't he deserve the same "innocent until proven guilty" as everyone else does?
Of course, but he isnt the one being accused of murder.
Generally..when one man kills another...in this country..they are incarcerated..processed and a bail is set.
Then they have a trial to determine guilt or innocence.
