[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 2240116, member: 229"] I don't know that Martin knew Zimmerman had his gun, but that doesn't negate the fact that Zimmerman is a 28 year old Hispanic male out at night following Martin who was going to his own house in his own neighborhood. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that your grandma isn't as threatening as Zimmerman is to a 17 year old kid. Your grandma probably doesn't have a previous criminal history with assaulting officers and resisting arrest either. What evidence (other than Zimmerman's testimony) suggests that Zimmerman wasn't the aggressor? I'd love to see what else you're taking into consideration aside from Zimmerman's testimony. Just because you (a full grown man) would have done something - that doesn't throw any theories about how a 17 year old (or anyone else for that matter) would act - and you yourself suggested Martin didn't know Zimmerman was armed, so why then wouldn't he take on someone who was following him around in the dark? Logic and common sense says that an armed 28 year old Hispanic male with a criminal history (cleaned up by his daddy the judge) and a restraining order from his ex-fiance is not known for making the best of decisions (and with a history of violence, he's not known for being peaceful), so I tend to question his version of what happened. What I don't get is why everyone gets all up in arms to defend Zimmerman? He did something stupid (multiple people in this thread have said he was stupid by getting out of the car in the first place), he has a criminal history (specifically with aggression against police officers), he has a restraining order from his ex, his own statements to the 911 dispatcher indicated that he suspected Martin of being up to no good, being on drugs, and reaching into his waistband (as if he had a weapon), and yet he's outside following the guy around (who happens to be in his own neighborhood heading to his own house - Martin hasn't even been suspected of doing anything wrong in this case prior to the confrontation with Zimmerman). How does any of that scream "Get behind this guy, he's in the right"? [/QUOTE]
