So far, we know this....

So far, all we know is what the media has selectively broadcast to create a sensation. My "storytelling" is no different than the half-baked fiction we see in the news. Tawana Brawley comes to mind here, so does the Duke Lacrosse Team issue some years back.

The 17-year old Trayvon had some candy and a bottle of tea on him. Did they check inside the tea bottle to see if it was indeed tea and not alcohol, or drugs? Was it candy or crystal meth? Was there a coroner's report for artifacts on the corpse?

Even if Trayvon had just a ball of string and some pocket lint it does not mean he wasn't carrying a gun previously, or cocaine for that matter. Trayvon could have seen the Watch Captain and ran, thinking he was a policeman, ditching his gun and drugs which would explain why Zimmerman chose to pursue. Trayvon could have been trying to break into a house, or jacking a car.

All we have is selective, unverified "witnesses" blabbing this and that to build a sensational story. All that you have read is unverified hearsay which is inadmissible in a court of law.

For the moment, I am siding with the police who were there and who used their judgement concerning the situation.

I refuse to get worked up over something when all the facts are not present.

Obviously he was questioned by police because he issued a statement that he fired in self defense.

And, I will go out on a limb here, and predict a court, or inquiry, will come to the same conclusion as the police who questioned Zimmerman: Trayvon acted in a manner which caused Zimmerman to fear for his life so he fired.

In the end, the ignorant rapper, the political hay makers, will have turned a non-event, that is, the gunning down of a piece of human excrement, into an expensive circus trial.

Disgusting. Posted from the Department of Homeland Security. Probably the biggest collection of defective human beings ever collected in one place. Apologies to the non-defective DHS personnel, but you probably suffer from it more than most of us.

While I completely understand, and agreed with, their sentiment, it's been almost 4 weeks since the death. There was never a report made of this conversation to the police at the time of the shooting? Why is it just coming out now? There may be a good explanation, but it is a little odd.

Many of the witnesses have said that the police were not interested in hearing their statements. No one came to interview them or ask what they saw/heard. Maybe there was attempt sot make a report or even a report made but it wasn't given any attention. The girlfriend was hospitalized due to the trauma so it may not have been something the family wanted a lot of attention about.
