He actually bring up a good point:
"Savage went on to say that the gun Zimmerman was carrying did not have the safety on and that there was a bullet chambered, which, according to Savage, showed intent from Zimmerman.
“Had he not chambered a round prior to meeting Trayvon, and had he not taken the safety off — even if Trayvon — during the altercation even if Trayvon had tried to grab the gun away from Zimmerman, had that gun not been chambered with a round and safety off, Trayvon would have had to use two hands. You can’t do it with one hand,” Savage said.
“Because Zimmerman carried a loaded weapon with the safety off, Trayvon Martin is dead,” Savage concluded. “Therefore, the responsibility is in the hands of Zimmerman.”Comment

The exact law is called "Justifiable Use Of Force".

It blows my mind that anyone would want someone like Zimmerman on their Neighborhood Watch. On face of it all Zimmerman seems like a nice guy, and is concerned about his neighborhood. But the reality is Zimmerman has had a restraining order against him, was charged with assaulting a police, and ordered by the court to take anger management classes. How is someone like Zimmerman allowed on the Neighborhood Watch? How is Zimmerman allowed to legally own a gun?
Do you really want someone like Zimmerman armed patrolling your neighborhood? When you have someone who lives a life of restraining orders, assaulting police officers, and anger management problems and you arm him and send him into the night to "protect the citizens" it's only a matter of time before he shoots and kills someone.Herschel Savage

He shoved an undercover alcohol-control agent who was arresting an under-age friend of his at a bar so the undercover agent...over charged him...with everything he could...as law enforcement always does. To avoid a trial he was allowed to enter an anger management program...pretty much SOP. No convictions.
He broke off an engagement to a girl and she and he filed for and both were granted restraining order.
Most people that knew/know him describe him as a mild mannered person...as a nice guy.

I consider myself a "mild mannered person". I've never been arrested, never had a restraining order against me, and never had to attend "court ordered anger management classes".
Zimmerman is a wannabe police officer rejected by the police. He's trolling, looking to start shit, and armed. He was on the neighborhood watch and claims he knows everyone, yet no one knew him at all him and he doesn't seem to know the name of the tree streets in his complex.
He got punched in the face and shot and killed someone.Herschel Savage

Oh richard.....
Your bias .. or ignorance is showing again
You keep saying that you can't believe we would want "someone like Zimmerman on a neighborhood watch" ...
His restraining order was due to a domestic dispute in which BOTH he and his fiancee had restraining orders against each other. You are going to pre judge him based on this? Really?
Consider the following:
1. Domestic violence is 2 to 4 times more common in police families than in the general population. In two separate studies, 40% of police officers self-report that they have used violence against their domestic partners within the last year.
Source 1 Source 2
2. Many of the qualities valued in on-duty police officers can make them dangerous domestic violence offenders. All abusers employ similar methods to control and abuse their intimate partners. Officers however, have skills and tactics not commonly possessed by civilians. Professional training in force, weapons, intimidation, interrogation and surveillance ? along with the cultural climate ? become a dangerous and potentially lethal combination in a domestic situation. Victims face the bias of law enforcement agencies and the legal system, psychological intimidation, and a high lethality risk.
~ Diane Wetendorf All Rights Reserved. (in Domestic Violence by Police Officers. Donald C. Sheehan (ed.) pp 375-382. Washington DC: U.S. Department of Justice
So I guess we shouldn't want police officers on the neighborhood watches either....
3. The Defense Department doesn?t break down pre- and post-deployment figures, but the fact is that rates of domestic violence in the military have been high for years?two to five times higher than among civilians, depending on which DoD study is consulted.
So I guess we shouldn't want retired military on the neighborhood watches either....
You seem to want to be the judge and jury over everyone .. even without having all the facts. That's an odd stance to take for someone in an industry as marginalized as ours.Comment

Yes...at one time...in years past...Zimmerman applied to become a police officer and apparently changed his mind or he probably would have jumped on this...testified by...
state witness Wendy Dorival.
Wendy Dorival, who coordinated the local Neighborhood Watch Program for the Sanford Police Department, thought so highly of Zimmerman that she tried to recruit him to be a “Citizen on Patrol,” in which he would be supplied with a police department issued patrol car and a uniform of sorts. In sharp contrast to the State’s repeated characterization of Zimmerman as a “wannabe” cop who went over the edge in his pursuit, confrontation, and shooting of Martin, Ms. Dorival regretfully stated that Zimmerman had declined the offer.
In addition Professor Scott Pleasant testified that Zimmerman had told him his career goals were to become an attorney and then a State prosecutor.
Notice "attorney then a prosecutor"...so apparently he no longer wanted to be a police officer.Last edited by theking; 07-08-2013, 07:55 AM.When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!

I'm not trolling at all. This is just such an open and shut case that it stuns me that people can believe otherwise.
Zimmerman is an overbearing rejected police officer wannabe who mishandled this situation from the very beginning, failed to follow the instructions of the 9/11 operator, then forced a confrontation in which seventeen year old kid punched in the face, he over reacted, and then shot and killed a kid.Herschel Savage

You are trolling or just dense.
As presented in court he was not a "police officer wannabe"...but instead wanted to be an attorney/prosecutor...and in fact turned down the offer of being a member of the Police Citizen on Patrol program. Zimmerman clearly is not overbearing according to all testimony presented at trial...just the opposite has been testified to...he has been described as a mild mannered...nice guy is the testimony. As presented in court...by multiple police reports... he did not fail to follow the advice/instructions by the 911 operator. As stated in court by the girl that was on the phone with Martin...it was Martin that confronted Zimmerman not the other way around.Last edited by theking; 07-08-2013, 09:06 AM.When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!

Zimmerman is clearly overbearing - instead of reporting a suspicious person to the police, instead of following the directions of the 911 operator, he got out of the car and followed him which resulted in Martin feeling threatened.
He is not "mild mannered" - He had a restraining order against him, he assaulted a police officer, and attended court ordered anger management. That is not mild mannered at all.
Martin may have confronted Zimmerman - But Zimmerman forced the confrontation by following the kid and then getting out of his car to follow him more.
Zimmerman followed the kid, there was a confrontation, Martin acted in self defense, Zimmerman shot him even though his life was not in danger.Herschel Savage

if GZ refuses to take the stand, just IMO...he is guilty of manslaughter. There is no excuse for him not to testify if he was the good guy & was just defending himself. His defense would be strongest if he testifies. & the state is accusing him of murder! how would he not want to testify? His life is on the line.
credibility is most important as to guilt or innocence when facts are murky & the dead guy cant tell his story. Zims facts are already bad (nonexistent bushes, no recollection of street names in a subdivision he patrols), & it is worse if he refuses to tell the jury directly that he was defending himself.

It's not as simple as just taking the stand and giving a speech.
You're going to be cross examined by LAWYERS. And those guys are the trickiest SOB's in the world when it comes to twisting words and making you look bad.
I bet GZ himself would love to take the stand. But I'd bet the farm that his lawyers are saying "no".
Remember, they don't give you a chance to put things in context or extrapolate your answer in cross examination. The cross examination is purposefully intended to make you look like a liar. And if you have the defendant on the stand...that's red meat for those prosecuting attorneys.
In any trial, the prosecutors are just praying that the defendant will make the mistake of taking the stand.-Robbie

I stated what I thought would happen if Zimmerman was found innocent.
It's possible they will drop the charges down to manslaughter, but he'll get a stiff sentence.
I don't think I am the supreme anything. It just seems very obvious to me this was a fist fight that ended up with someone getting shot and killed.
Don't really have enough information on if it was life threatening or not, although it sure does look bad. I also don't know what injuries she got in the process. Looks horrible, but three people tried to break it up and we also don't know when police were called.
The eighteen year old got five years in prison for this. The other attacker is a minor.

with all that you said to be true, if the state is accusing YOU of murder, would you refuse the stand out of fear of the prosecutors? your a credible guy. I think any truly innocent & credible man fights for his life on that witness stand.
plus, the defense has the opportunity to retort any cross examination that may harm you on the stand. its not like whatever is damaging in cross exam cannot be clarified by the defense.

But seriously...yes, I would probably argue with my lawyers about it. And then, because I like to think I'm reasonably intelligent, I'd hear what they think would happen if I did take the stand.
And then, because I don't want to go to jail...I'd listen and heed their advice.

There is testimony..by Zimmerman..in the police reports that Martin went for his gun and that put him in "fear for his life or great bodily harm" which by law gave him the right to use deadly force. That is defense in total.
The burden of proof lies with the prosecutor not Zimmerman...thus the prosecutor...has to prove that Martin did not go for Zimmerman's gun and Zimmerman does not have to prove that Martin did.Last edited by theking; 07-08-2013, 11:09 AM.When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!

No you sidestepped by giving the following non-committal answer: " I believe that if he is found innocent it will set a very dangerous precedent - If someone punches you in the face you will now legally be able to shoot and kill them. "
You are talking out of both ends .. you said:
"This was a fist fight, not even close to life threatening."
Oh.. I see... In this case you don't have enough info but in the GZ case you do. Didn't realize you were privy to the court records.

Now who's trolling. You asked what I thought would happen if he was found innocent, and I told you.
Correct. With the assault in Baltimore I know... Nothing. I don't know know if the victim was seen by a doctor or spent three days in a hospital recovering from wounds. I don't know anything about the victim's injuries.
With Zimmerman, well, we know everything. We have pictures of him front and back, he didn't go to the hospital, he didn't need stiches, he didn't see a doctor. The police detailed his injuries, and multiple people have testified about the extent or lack of injuries Zimmerman had.Herschel Savage

No. I NEVER asked you what you think would happen.
I asked .. and I quote:
"If he is found not guilty by a jury, will you accept that decision or continue to crucify him?"
This highlights a significant & fundamental difference between you and I. You need to see the extent of someone's injuries to determine if lethal force is warranted.
I see this requirement as quite literally insane. In most states:
"the statutes say you can use deadly force to protect yourself or someone else if you feel your life is in danger or someone else's life is in danger,"
It does not say that you can use deadly force if the injuries from an attack on you or someone else are serious enough to warrant deadly force.
Can you not see how waiting until after an attack to make that determination is insane?Comment

Driving about 800 miles today - again listened to almost the whole day and still listening to the hearings about admitting additional evidence and testimony.. The defense pretty much crushed the prosecution today on every level. Toxicology report will be admitted. 5 or more witnesses identified Zimmerman as the guy crying for help just today alone. Prosecutor strangely can't muster up any family or friends that can do the same - of the 3 so far, being the mother, brother and father, 2 initially said it wasn't Martin.

Absolutely ZERO chance Zimmerman takes the stand. He doesn't need to. Unless it's a jury made up exclusively of Martin family members or idiot GFY members (the latter of which is EASILY possible), there's simply no way he gets convicted. The only thing he could possibly accomplish by taking the stand is slipping up and making the prosecution look somewhat competent...something they haven't been able to do on their own.
The only real question remaining is will the forthcoming riots start with a few random idiots, or just one (Al Sharpton) opening his mouth and inciting them. And will they be comparable to the Rodney King acquittals.
It would be nice to see the black community acknowledge that maybe this wasn't as clear cut a case of murder as it was made out to be.Comment
