That's what it sounds like.
Then you missed the point, or are pretending that you did. Rereading will solve the former, the latter would be up to you.

Not sick enough of it to label Martin a "newcomer drug dealer" and once again perpetuate the meme (made up by people who weren't there) that he attacked first.
Interesting gymnastics you go through in a single post.
i give a shit to the extent that people crying racist also seem to want to get rid of our Stand-Your-Ground law to try to nanny-police future incidents of racist whites shooting blacks.I guess I'm the only one who really doesn't give a shit about this case.
ironic people supporting lynch mobs with shotty information and no trial
Who is George Zimmerman - the frustrated cop wannabe in the eye of a race storm?

Geez, the media really seems to be playing a weird game with this story.
I believe the media is pushing this to create more racial tension.
Judging based on the deluge of threads here on the "story", they are getting just what they wanted: attention and eyeballs.
I do not know what went down. I DO know that the media is blowing this up.
That was posted in the main thread on the subject.
I've got an even better conspiracy.
The Martin shooting has been bubbling in the background for a month now.
But it just blew up now.
Sure took that story of the Afghan village slaughter off the front page, didn't it now?
Tell that to the people who have been killed by 1 punch ... It happens.The point is that Trayvon isn't quite as affable as he's been portrayed, which matters somewhat because it does paint a picture of someone, who might be quick to get into a fistfight.
The points raised in the article, however are extremely weak, and even if Trayvon did throw the first punch, that's not good enough for a self defense case.
How long was the story about that white girl that disappeared in Aruba on the air?
Very judgemental and absolutely wrong of you to suggest that a fist fight cannot end in death, and that a fist fight will not bring with it serious harm or death.You are wrong and you are giving out information that could potentially land people in prison for a long period of time if followed:
Q. When can I use my handgun to protect myself?
A. Florida law justifies use of deadly force when you are:
Trying to protect yourself or another person from death or serious bodily harm;
The last line of the article:
No it is not, based on the facts so far presented.
Self defense with deadly force is not justified, legally, if you provoke or prolong or instigate an altercation that otherwise would not have happened had you not done so.
"Stand your ground" laws do not change that.
I'm gonna guess the numbers are about equal to those who think the kid was innocent.And neither does the affiliations of your victim. This "crucify the victim" tendency is horrible. I don't get why so many people are so desperate to believe Zimmerman is innocent.
