[quote=Anonymous][quote]#1-Other witnesses say that it was Trayvon screaming for help. Rather than believe one or the other, why not withhold judgement? What is your motivation in believing that witnesses that support Zimmerman?

#2-What possible criminal activity? There is NONE. Despite what some racists can't comprehend, Trayvon was not a violent thug.

#3-Zimmerman's violent past DOES have bearing on this case. Speaks to his ability to control his anger, likelihood to engage in a confrontation, etc. [/quote]

1.  I didn't say which one was screaming and I did withold judgment.  My point was that someone had time to scream help.  This tends to show that there was an altercation, as opposed to Z walking up and shooting someone without any engagement.

2.  I said "possible" criminal activity.  And my point is that it doesn't matter, even if it exists.  To answer your point, some people had been alleging that Trayvon was using/selling marijuana, had been engaged in larceny and/or graffiti.  These activities are against the law.

3.  A person with a violent past can still be assualted and feel in danger for his life.

I think it is important to maintain some logical consistency.  What matters is what happened in those moments. for purpoes of the legality or illegality of the killing.  Trayvon's past does not matter.  Zimmerman's past does not matter.  What matters is those moments.
