George Zimmerman: Will medical report help his case?
The Orlando Sentinel ^ | May 16, 2012 | Hal Boedeker

What to make of the "ABC World News" report about George Zimmerman's injuries after shooting Trayvon Martin?

The TV analysts stepped in Tuesday night after ABC's Matt Gutman reported that Zimmerman's medical report showed the shooter had a broken nose, two black eyes and gashes on his head.

Zimmerman had refused to go to the hospital the night of the shooting, and his doctor treated him the next day, Gutman reported in his exclusive.

ABC's Dan Abrams said, "There's no question these documented injuries help Zimmerman's case, but the fundamental legal question remains: Who was the aggressor?"

Zimmerman is charged with second-degree murder in Trayvon's death. Zimmerman has claimed self-defense.

Ben Crump, attorney for the Martin family, told CNN'sAnderson Cooper that Zimmerman's injuries needed to be put in full context. Crump highlighted that Zimmerman had neither a concussion nor stitches.

Trayvon Martin "didn't start this fight," Crump said.

But CNN's Jeffrey Toobin wanted to know how Crump knew that Zimmerman was the aggressor. Crump pointed to the 911 calls.

Crump said he "wanted everybody to wait until the full evidence comes out," even as he continued to blast Zimmerman....

And here, well it does so happen that the names Zimmerman and Trayvon are more unique than George or Martin. So that’s what gets remembered.

The spin will be that Zim so terrorized Trabant that he completely went insane and caused those injuries to Zim.

Zim’s fault.

That is a most excellent point. I prefer “Spy” vs “Spy.”

OK, I unwittingly follow in the shoes of the headline writers. Mea culpa

NO. No "Mea Culpa". NO "unwittingly". Just shut up.

That sounds like the understory. As Mr. Z stood there looking around after he stopped trailing the Skittles kid, then the Skittles kid was so shook up with fear at it that he felt he had to singlehandedly take down this dastardly profiling trailing monster.

All reports on behalf of Mr. Z are that he got jumped by surprise. Obviously Mr. Z wasn’t even looking around by then, probably just standing there gazing off into the distance, maybe having a smoke if he smokes.

Recently there was an earthquake in DC, and the location was semi-humorously dubbed “Bush’s Fault.” You may have inadvertently coined the name of the next one: “Zim’s Fault.”

Even you people are guilty of always using George’s last name, but Martin’s first. Why?

Because a discussion about George and Martin would draw a bunch of blank stares.

Was it the popular Spokaneder Tom Foley who said it’s not the evidence that matters but the seriousness of the charge? Millions of American people loathe Zimmerman regardless of the evidence. He makes them uncomfortable in their own bias.

Think about it, Zimmerman-Trayvon? It is natural that everyone would use those two names instead of George or Martin, we all know instantly who they are, the only flaw is the length of ‘Zimmerman’.

According to todays US News/MSNBC, Zimmerman is back to being white>

Zimmerman is white (still? again?)
“But after questions about possible racial motivation for the slaying – Martin was black; Zimmerman is a white man of Hispanic heritage – a special prosecutor took over the case and, on April 11, Zimmerman was charged with second-degree murder.”

The medical report should drop Angela Corey in jail for subborning perjury.

There was a period of time when the tide of war swung toward the American will to stomp the Japs and the Nazi's into into the proverbial mud.

And in the aftermath that will prevailed. It set an unbeatable standard.

In the time afterwards the will of the American people was par excellence.

And then Kennedy was killed.

And that will died.

I've watched "your" crap all that time.

I've watched "you" people do the long slow slide into the GATES OF HELL, all the while congratulating yourselves.

What am I going to do about it?

Scrape you off my shoe before I enter my house.

The real question is, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

If you think you are so tough hiding behind your screen name, look up mine. I've posted it repeatedly on this website. Then Google it.

Fool.

Thanks for telling us what you are. (Two can play the "deliberate misinterpretation" game. It is so jejune. Look that word up in your Funk and Wagnalls.)
