[QUOTE="Rajder, post: 1796543, member: 11636"] You guys crack me up. Why does it even matter if he had smoked some weed in the past? Many of the people on this forum obviously have smoked week before. Does that mean that they should be confronted by some random stranger for doing NOTHING ILLEGAL and it would be ok if they were shot. Heck, alot of you older guys have kids that have been smoking weed for a long time now and you just don't realize it. For the record I've never actually used an illegal drug but I understand that over half of young kids today have at least tried it. Does that make half the kids today thugs? I don't care even if he was a thug with a violent history (but it seems that GZ has a more violent history than TM does) he wasn't doing anything illegal at the time. Zimmerman should have stayed in the car because he didn't have the authority to just randomly go shake down a kid walking down the street. If you're worried about a pontentially dangerous individual what the heck are you doing confronting him! If some of you guys would just put yourself in others shoes for a while and think about the situation you would probably have a different view on many issues. Imagine that your 17 year old son walked down the street to the store to pick up some skittles and a drink. And he never came back because he was shot by a man that thought he looked suspicious and confronted him with no reason or authority I think you would be pretty pissed about it and would have a different view. I wouldn't care that he was getting his butt kicked by my boy either. If you aren't ready to get into a fist fight then don't go around trying to shake down people that you have no business confronting. If it were my boy then I'd want that man in jail so I can't really fault his family for feeling that way. Also, did anyone see the interview between the lawyers in this case on the Today show this morning? Matt Lauer brought up the fact that the police has Zimmerman's text messages from that night and they would be released soon. And when Zimmerman's lawyer was asked about it he seemed pretty nervous about it to me. His attitude made me think there was something in those messages that he didn't like. I don't know, but I'll be interested to see what is on those text messages. [/QUOTE]
