You seem to say that if I flick your ear, you can then pummel me to death and I lose all claims to self defense because I "precipitated" the matter.
If your response to me flicking your ear is disproportionate, and it places my life in danger, I may most certainly use force.
I respect your experience 100%, and would listen to you based on your vastly greater experience.
I just hope the Grand Jury agrees with you about only the last 30 seconds counting.
I'm so sick of the media giving our police force and investigators bad press... they ALWAYS make it out to be something the police did or didn't do...Additionally how our laws have tied their hands from doing their jobs. No different then how our Military men can no longer fight the enemy.
Today nobody dares to interfere with any of the crooks and those up to no good without fear of being sued or exactly what we see happening with this case.
The public is in no position whatsoever to make a judgment of guilt on Zimmerman...He IS innocent until proved otherwise. The mob mentality even came from our President and politicians ready to "take sides"....so the race war Obama wants is certainly being fanned by him and those ready to call Zimmerman guilty....as well as what the police did or did not do.
It's a disgusting mess and for this the next thing the libs will do is stop all Neighborhood watch groups. You can bet on it.
