The Trayvon Martin case in which George Zimmerman shot and killed the teen has been really making me think of the laws of the land my friends,in this case the Fla. Stand your ground law specifically. Although I still do not believe laws such as this should be on the books I now have to admit that blaming that law specifically for that crime was not the proper way of thinking . That eventual death of Trayvon Martin also cannot be blamed on the police botching the investigation,nor can the ultimate responsibility of Trayvons death be blamed on any other source. The bottom line here is that initially at least George Zimmerman was the aggressor and that makes a whole lot of difference in my mind at least. George Zimmerman pursued Trayvon Martin initially and even after Zimmerman had been told by the emergency dispatcher to cease following Trayvon Martin he continued to follow him. Eventually it was this blatant disregard for what he was advised not to do that culminated in the killing of Trayvon Martin .Even if the circumstances had changed to the point where Trayvon Martin at some later point in time became a threat to George Zimmerman as is alleged by Mr.Zimmerman this whole confrontation would have been avoided had Zimmerman had only listened to what he was being told by the dispatcher not to do.
Why did George Zimmerman not listen and keep following Trayvon Martin ?
What was his real feelings behind continuing to follow him,after all the police had already been notified,was not his responsibility met as a neighborhood watch person ?
What made George Zimmerman so bold and brave to continue to follow Trayvon who by the way was actually bigger than George Zimmerman height wise.Was it Zimmermans knowledge that he was a tough guy who could handle himself in physical confrontations or was it the fact that he knew if he got into serious trouble in a likely physical confrontation that he had the equalizer on his person that night…the loaded gun that he did eventually pull and kill Trayvon Martin with.
George Zimmerman is not the victim in this whole tragedy  my friends ,he is the perpetrator of the crime which ultimately led to the killing of Trayvon Martin. It is not the law or anyone else’s fault, it is George Zimmermans fault based solely on the facts.
George Zimmerman must now stand up like a man and face the responsibility for his actions on that night.
The killing of an unarmed teenager doing no apparent harm to anyone.Someone told me that we should all let the police and the courts handle this case,but you see if we all had just let them handle this case nothing what so ever would have been done in the first place.

No there is a time to speak up and a time to shut up and this is the later.

I also find it appalling that the case seemingly follows along the great racial divide when it comes to believability.
Should we really be going there my friends…..not in a country that supposedly does not have a racial divide, but now just suddenly have one again.Do you really think that racism just up and disappeared one day because a B. Obama was elected President of the United States…?
Get real …it did not just suddenly return because of the killing of Trayvon Martin…it was always here, it never left.
Shouldn’t we really be letting the facts already known of this crime speak for themselves .
What possible revelations will totally change the facts of what happened that night from those facts that we already know ?
Who initiated the contact…?
Who was for all intensive purposes actively stalking who ?
Who was told to stop following Trayvon,and who disregarded that request ?
Tell me if you were in the same situation if you would not turn and face a person who was following you with no justifiable cause ?
Would you just continue walking along as if everything were completely normal ?
Would you in effect continue to place yourself in that risky situation on the hope that the person following you was just some figment of your imagination, or would just stop suddenly ?
So what if Trayvon Martin did at some point confront George Zimmerman as Mr. Zimmerman alleges that he did,do you actually find that unusual ?
Now this is only alleged but what if that is exactly what did happen,does the sole responsibility of the initial act of George Zimmerman starting to follow Trayvon Martin now shift to Trayvon because he now questions Mr.Zimmerman of his actions ?
This is a ridiculous defense for the act of pulling your weapon and shooting a totally innocent teenager to death over something he may or may not have done for the act of confronting his aggressor. Did a scuffle ensue,were punches thrown,was Trayvon now beating George Zimmerman up as a direct result of Zimmermans actions that night. Hey well welcome to the real world my friends……you know you get what you get when you do what you do….only thing is Trayvon Martin was doing nothing but walking back from the store…Mr.Zimmerman on the other hand…..???
Should we really think that if Trayvon did confront Mr.Zimmerman that this is somewhat suspect…?
Now we only have the facts so far up to this supposed scuffle to rely on correct,because for all George Zimmerman alleges
there is no other counter claim as the only other person who really knows what happened is dead.How anyone can seriously believe that what resulted in the killing of an innocent teenager that night is totally beyond me my friends.
Look at the facts as if it was you my friends and tell me that Trayvon Martin did anything wrong that night, and that George Zimmerman did anything right. Because if you look at the facts that we already know it is rather obvious that George Zimmerman did in fact kill Trayvon Martin without cause .What ever version you choose to believe my friends it does not change the facts one iota…..George Zimmerman is guilty of the murder of Trayvon Martin.

Thank you.
