Captain Kawaii

That was a few years ago.

Media bias playing to their audiences is amazing and appalling. College? Outside chance at best. Its like when you see a teen or 20-something on MAURY and she has 3 kids and after getting DNA from 12 guys, still no match...and she says she wants to go to medical school. There is a big disconnect between reality and the dream in the US anymore.

This article seems to be fiction if you look at the reality of TM's last year of school.

This is from the Townhall article.
4) Did George Zimmerman continue to follow Trayvon Martin after a police dispatcher told him not to do so? Keep in mind that George Zimmerman was a neighborhood watch captain and there had been 8 burglaries there in the preceding 14 months. Additionally, most of those crimes were committed by young black males. Furthermore, while there are no indications that Martin was doing anything illegal when he ran into Zimmerman, it's worth noting he had been suspended from school for possession of a "'burglary tool' and a bag full of women's jewelry." (Source: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...lary-tool.html )Given all of that, it doesn't seem remarkable that Zimmerman may have initially followed Martin.

However, after calling the police and reporting what he believed was Martin's suspicious behavior, the 911 dispatcher told Zimmerman he didn't need to continue to follow Martin. It's worth noting that the dispatcher had no legal authority to tell Zimmerman what to do and even if Zimmerman continued following Martin, it wouldn't be a crime. Regardless, Zimmerman says he obeyed and began walking back to his truck to meet with a police officer when Martin confronted and then attacked him shortly afterwards. While it's impossible to prove one way or the other with the evidence available, Zimmerman's story is consistent with the facts presented at trial.
