Hey, trailer park badass - post a link proving Martin attacked Zimmerman and I'll say "sure, absolutely I was wrong". Go ahead...post it.
Like you say, there are only two possibilities. If one can be discounted, the other is proved.
One would have to believe that the CCW-carrying neighborhood watch captain, having given his name and location to the police, knowing the police were on their way, with a gun in his waistband, would throw the first punch against the suspcicious person he had been observing. Sorry, but that's preposterous, compared to the only other alternative.
Do you have a CCW permit? Do you carry concealed? Having done so for 25 years, I know from my experience and those related to me by others, that doing so makes one approach potential confrontation infinitely more soberly. And every class I've ever attended taught retreat first, and that physical confrontation while armed was to be avoided if at all possible. Whom you call "macho fools" in NYC are called "neighbors" down here where I live, and they don't seem to fit the liberal Yankee stereotype of the hothead with a gun. Your bias against concerned citizens like Zimmerman is obvious enough.
If you don't trust your own experience and judgment enough to pick one of the two ONLY possibilities, that's a You problem.
Were you on the Casey Anthony jury?
