Day 16 (Week #4) Zimmerman Trial – Witness Discussion Thread
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | July 1, 2013 | Sundance

Posted on 07/01/2013 5:17:35 AM PDT by Uncle Chip

Today, July 1st, is DAY #16 (of 4th week) State of Florida V. George Zimmerman case.

Last week the prosecution feebly presented the first series of witnesses against George Zimmerman. However, as most observers would note, the witnesses called by the state have so far been more beneficial for the Zimmerman Self-Defense position.

I see your point and it makes alot of sense.
Should have been more clear in my reply, IF I were sitting at a complex as GZ was, I would get out of the car.

Give it up.

Your constant berating this point does not make it relevant. You are wasting bandwidth with your silly emotionalism. Give it a rest.

You are wrong. Just admit it and move on. You’ve become a bore.

Actually got in two naps today!

How's that for summertime power napping!

Don't know the defense attorney's name - he's the tall fella'.

I enjoyed his presentation a great deal. The cop seemed uneasy from time to time. The lady cop seemed more at ease. She was professional and looked more at ease.

Maybe the man cop just doesn't feel at ease in public settings - lots of people don't like presenting publicly.

I think the cop will be continued tomorrow at 9.

Wikimapia has a way to measure distances. It's pretty good. If you can show me a map and explain where everyone is...I can go to wiki and measure it.

I need an address to start.

My point is...TM could have gone home and nothing would have happened. He just had to be a smart ass and go back and circle the truck to see what he was going to take on....and then play cat and mouse. Dumb fool...

Math = $$$$ for a mama who had nothing to do with him from the time he was 2-3 years old and a whore of a dad out doing whatever it is he does.

Yep, you got it run down quite nice.

It’s all about the car.

People on this thread don’t want to believe it but that interrogation tape is a problem.

Jurors might agree that he was on the hunt because “they “ are always getting away with it and he had had enough.

I don’t believe that but I know a juror might.

Please cite the evidence GZ's gun was visible.

BTW

Andrew Branca who WROTE the book, Law of Self Defense.

He has none of your concerns and has repeatedly shot down the "following" nonsense. You have no idea what you are talking about.

"It’s possible Martin saw it."

That is a HUGE stretch. All acknowledge how dark it was.

You make a valid point regarding GZ'z admission of fear.

Raising the question of why he would got out of a car while being "afraid", is also valid. The prosecution better add to those two points in a very big way, and soon.

Just watch how the fact that he got out of the car to follow Martin plays out...

I will remember you said it was insignificant.

all true but my old adage...” listen to what you don’t hear”

why did the Judge allow the doc to continue to be seen and NEVER say a word

Here’s the thing...it really is unclear to me how much interaction Martin had with GZ. Did matin peer in the car? Did GS follow him. How long did he follow him. Was any of it in lighted areas.

GZ was following him so could he see the gun...especially if they are high as a kite and paranoid.

Etc.

But even if he couldn’t see the gun until the tussle...a person can feel threatened without a gun.

If you know nothing about Martins background and think he is just an innocent kid going to the store to get tea and skittles...it’s not so far fetched to think somebody was following him and it scared him.

Of course WE know that he wasn’t just an innocent kid but what does the Jury know?

so what? not everyone uses the terms to mean the same thing. I have lived around Black people my entire life, and many of them use the word “ass” frequently, with no grammatical sense to the word much of the time.
“Cracker” is the dominant word here, it is like “white as a cracker” or “Whip cracker” from slave days. It is a derogatory word for White people.

Please know that I am not sure I am totally right on this.

I read that he (an investigator), and the Chief of the Dep’t, were both fired/demoted in an effort to disparage them when the “true racists” (meaning Sharpton,and gang) came to town to whip up da’ mob of non-critical thinkers.

More people than Zimmerman got hurt by this fake “show-trial”. And while we should not reach conclusions until we have heard all the evidence, it is hard to have faith in our “justice for all” at the present moment.

If we are unable to afford sending financial help to a verified honorable charity for them, the least we can do, WHEN the trial is over, is send them a note thanking them for fulfilling their sworn oath to our beloved Constitution.

And, fwiw, it takes trials, and times like this, to remind us all of how fine the line can be between the rule of law, or the rule of the mob.

If Martin was scared, he would have entered the town home (which he reached earlier, according to goiter-neck) instead of coming back to look for Zimmerman.

The defense demonstrated that GZ just had to move to see the gun because the jacket was short.

Did you miss that???

btw, DID YOU MISS THAT I SAID THAT O’MARA WOULD HAVE TO FIX THIS...DID YOU MISS THAT...and I said I thought he would

THOSE TWEETS SHOW THE RESPONSES TO O’MARA’S QUESTIONS.

DID I NOT SAY THAT O’MARA WOULD HAVE TO COUNTER THAT TAPE???

Oh I guess you missed that...

If O’MARA HAD LET IT GO...you wouldn’t see those Bravos by that tweeter

Oh, sheesh..wasn’t there quite a few people here who said you can’t rely on tweets...

PS. WERE YOU ONE OF THOSE???
