On March 16th, the Sanford police department released new details to the Orlando Sentinel.

http://news.yahoo.com/video/orlandowesh-16122564/sanford-police-speak-out-in-trayvon-martin-case-28640523.html#crsl=%252Fvideo%252Forlandowesh-16122564%252Fsanford-police-speak-out-in-trayvon-martin-case-28640523.html

Once again, these details have been ignored or changed by the media.

1.The witness reports that George Zimmerman was on the ground and Trayvon is on top of him punching him.
2.The witness says that George Zimmerman was screaming and yelling for help.
3.Police arrive and find Zimmerman bleeding on his face and the back of his head. He also has had grass stains on his back. All this confirms the story told by Zimmerman and the witness.
4.Police play the 911 tape for Trayvon Martin’s father, who tells police that the voice screaming is not the voice of his son.

The neighborhood this took place in has seen a lot of crime. Would you be surprised to learn that there were eight burglaries, nine thefts, and a shooting just in the past year? In fact, the local homeowners’ association reports that George Zimmerman actually caught one thief and aided in the apprehension of other criminals. The Miami Herald wrote about this on March 17th. None of the thousands of articles and cable news segments that came after, thought this was important.

None of those details have a bearing on who started the fight.

When someone, Zimmerman, disregards proper procedure and accosts someone, he should expect to get the crap kicked out of him by the person he accosted. He does not, under a situation he himself provoked, have a right to shoot someone who is acting in self-defense against a stranger, Zimmerman, who has accosted him. Had he not left his vehicle, none of this would have happened. The only thing more ironic here would have been for him to have been shot with his own gun as a result of his doing something he knew he was not supposed to do and which he had been told not to do.

I am starting to think the treatment of Zimmerman is to try to force people to cower instead of protect themselves.

“George Zimmerman actually caught one thief and aided in the apprehension of other criminals.”

Trayvon Martin was not a thief and was not a criminal. He wasn’t even trespassing. Zimmerman forced this situation. If some fat loser was chasing my son at night in the rain I would want him to “stand his ground” if necessary and defend himself. If Trayvon was sucessfully defending himself that does not excuse Zimmerman shooting him. Zimmerman does not have the stand your ground defense in this stituation.

Amazing what facts didn’t make it to the al sharpton club of “blame it on whitey”.
