(Vanity) Info that has been omitted from Trayvon Martin Shooting that I would like to know:

My basic question is: What was Trayvon doing in the gated community where he was shot?

Was he cutting through the neighborhood on his way home? He was obviously on foot ... where's the proximity to his house?

Was he on his way to visit friends? Surely, you would have thought one of his friends would have come forward to say he had just spoke to him on his cell phone and he would be over shortly.

Was he on his way to purchase 'weed' or hook up with somebody? (as 90% of his tweets either extoll the virtues of weed or refer to his desire to ####)

Where was he coming from?

Sorry wasn't following you....You actually got them all translated?

You know I was looking through the pictures: riding a horse, playing in the snow, family pictures. The more I see about this young man the madder I get at the Sharptons and Jackson's who promote the dark side of their communities. Someone had tried to give this child a better life but he chose to emulate the thugs: The gold foil on his teeth, tough talk on websites. Why aren't more men in the black community speaking out. Yes, I know some are but why aren't more?

Zimmerman has a past history of shoving people, including an LEO

Have not read that anywhere. Do you have a reliable link?

Good call.

I reflect on my growing up, and there were times I could have been Trayvon, almost. The difference being that the extent of my "toughness" was a big mouth. And the people that I ever got physical with (as in fighting), well, we knew each other. I never would have considered hitting a stranger first, not even out of anger.

So far that is the ONLY history of shoving someone. Very old arrest which he pled out. A friend of his was being arrested, he lost his cool.

>"Why did the police originally recommend manslaughter charges be brought against Zimmerman ... which the DA failed to do? "

Apparently scene evidence points to justifiable homicide.

Broken nose, lacerated skull, blood splatters, bullet angle and point of entry.


If someone coldcocks you and is in the process of bashing your brains into the ground and you are armed what would you do?

Somewhere someone said it was an undercover police officer who didn’t ID self and Zimmerman thought his friend was being attacked. Got it cleared up

Just watched Anderson Cooper on CNN with three guests including Marsha Clark, commenting on surveillance tapes of Z arriving at the police station. Two seemed to agree he didnt seem to have evidence of injuries. And if so he would have been transported to hospital and that would be noted in the record to protect the pd. Said “very impeachable”. Marsha Clark admitted she hadn’t read the police reports. If she did she would have known he was treated at the scene by the fire dept and declined transport. These people are really ill informed compared to here on FR.

Thanks. This has been an interesting thread, specifically the timeline for the Father's story. The time of the game, the location in regards to the girl friend's townhouse, the girlfriend on the phone who was reluctant to come forward for weeks, and the distance to the nearest convenance store are all factors that raise many more questions.

Alice in Wonderland has been a consistent dissimulator and MSM lie-supporter for days. And isn’t pleasant about her Travyon support either.

I read sort of obsessively for days. Here’s what I remember:

Some years ago when a friend of Z’s was buying liquor and a cop (IIRC) was arresting the friend for being underage, Z put his hand on the policeman’s arm. He was arrested (can’t remember the exact charge) and it was dropped.

If anyone remembers more clearly and I’m wrong, I’m always happy to be corrected.

There was also a domestic dispute thing when he and his wife were arguing, and they both opted to go for counseling.

I think that’s his entire rap sheet....

No “history” of “shoving” people.

Alice has a history of lying on these threads and being nasty about it and no, I’m not going to ping it.

"Earwitness. ABC checked into phone records and have the time they were in communication."

Have you heard whether she tried to call him back after her phone call abruptly ended? You'd think she'd have tried to contact him immediately - under the circumstances.

With that in mind, do police answer a victim's cell phone, if they have an unidentified body?

Heh. Anderson Cooper and Marcia Clark - two paragons of wisdom.

It's no wonder the public is ill informed. Funny thing is the public believes it is well informed.

Add to that, the media is invested 100% in agenda. There is no concern about presenting reality. Facts can be, and are, cherry picked to fit the agenda.

The video is linked on Drudge. He was transported AFTER receiving medical attention. He was cleaned up before transport in the police car. Previous reports indicated 17 stitches on the back of his head. No bandages visible in the video.

Thanks for the information. Wondered about that. If you find any information on the gun, the struggle for the gun or how the police handled the gun, please ping me. I know they kept it and Z’s clothes as evidence, but have found nothing else.

Not that I can tell. Planning and zoning rules would prevent it in developments in Florida built within the last four decades.
