True indeed. What it doesn't prove though is that he set out to murder Trayvon Martin, which is the point of this trial.This ride along request with the police just proves how much of a wannabe cop Zimmerman wanted to be.
It is a really whacky law. To me it sounds like: if you're in a fight, feel free to one up the other person if you "fear for your life." You're protected by the law.
A: Someone punching you, beat him with a bat
B: Someone beating you with a bat, stab him
C: Someone stabbing you, shoot him
So, meeting force with force. Does that mean equal force? Like if I punch, stab, or shoot you. You have the right to punch, stab, or shoot me back? In some cases, death may occur. But if I punch you, you can't stab or shoot me because that's not equal force?

This is the section of the Law.
(3) A person who is not engaged in an unlawful activity and who is attacked in any other place where he or she has a right to be has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force if he or she reasonably believes it is necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony.
You guys have to understand that this Law was enacted because criminals were breaking into peoples house, getting beat up, and then suing the home owner.
This could have been avoided is GZ was just minding his own business. Stay in your lane.
Zimmy ain't put on a defense yet and you already throwing in the towel? lolIf not 2nd degree
It should be manslaughter
If not manslaughter it should be perjury
But watch this fool walk on all counts cuz his pops is a judge
End of story
To me though, that bolded section is open to sooooo much subjectivity that it doesn't mean anything. Someone could have been abused as a kid so if they get into an altercation where they are being hit, and it's not anything extreme for you or I, but to them it brings back horrible memories and the scars from them being a kid...they can react in an otherwise extreme manner because in their mind they were in a life threatening situation.
It makes zero sense to me how you can have a law that's based on someone's personal belief of what is life threatening for them..anyone can lie and say "well I believed that if I let this go on any longer then he was going to kill me or hit me with a weapon or break my jaw/neck.
I don't even see how the justification for the law makes sense. Criminals breaking into people's private homes then they deserve anything they get bc you already broke a law by trespassing and very likely with the intent to commit burglary or even murder. In the case of a criminal breaking in while you're asleep or if you have young kids I can see them having the right to do whatever. If the robber gets hurt who cares...did these burglars suing homeowners actually win some of these cases? if so Florida has some of the dumbest juries and worst prosecutors on the planet. This law is flat out dumb as its currently constructed
Too late.how long til someone skype calls this dude while hes testifying?
Well that didn't take long. This testimony is pretty much going to be a waste due to the lack of attention either way. Now folks are just calling just to call.......how long til someone skype calls this dude while hes testifying?
