The issue regarding the sale of Zimmerman's gun has lead to many untrue comments regarding the incident that brought about his killing of Trayvon.
This thread is intended to be the place to have those "Off-Topic" discussions instead of derailing any other topic.
Instead of trying to get out of the rain, Trayvon was seen up on the grass looking into the homes.
That is suspicious behavior and it prompted Zimmerman to call the police.
Zimmerman went East past the area where Trayvon went South.
It was only upon Zimmerman returning past the area where Trayvon had headed off in a different direction did Trayvon then come out of "nowhere" and confront Zimmerman from his rear left.
There are only two possible scenarios in which that could have happened.
2. As for your "and instead listened" comment. It also shows that you do not know what you are talking about.
Zimmerman acknowledged the request and instead of continuing to follow Trayvon to the South, he walked East past the area Trayvon had gone.
So to sum it up.
Zimmerman was given a suggestion that he did not have to follow.
The suggestion was not made by the Police or anyone in authority, but by a call-taker.
It was also a suggestion that he did follow.
The Zimmerman case and OJ case are totally different.
There is no indication that Nicole was involved in committing any crime against the other person and causing them to legally defend their self with lethal force.

It is an untrue for the following reasons.uh how is that untrue-its my opinion as someone involved in law enforcement for years.Untrue. (Reply since deleted.)IN reality a wannabe cop who should have stood down when told to
1. Though he had at one time wanted to be a police officer he had since changed his mind and did not want to be one. This was clearly recorded and on the record.
That makes your statement factually untrue. He was not a wannabe.
Calling the police on a suspicious person and trying to keep tabs on him so that they may point that person out to the police when they arrive are the actions of a citizen and not acting as, or like the police, or in other words, not those of a wannabe. Again showing your statement is factually untrue in that regard.
2. He was never told to "Stand down" as you falsely stated.

a. A call-taker made a suggestion that they did not need him to follow.
A suggestion, let alone by a person who has no authority, is in no way being told to "stand down".
b. More importantly, he did follow the suggestion and actually traveled in a different direction than Trayvon had.
Trayvon went South while Zimmerman went East passing by the area Trayvon had gone.

You have no idea what he was actually planning to do on his way home.But, Trayvon wasn't even planning to rob a house in that area, he was going back to his house with some Arizona Tea and Skittles for his brother while they were watching a NBA game...

The walking home from the store part no longer applied.Martin didn't ambush Zimmerman nor did he plan too. He was walking home from the store.
Zimmerman went East past the area where Trayvon went South.
It was only upon Zimmerman returning past the area where Trayvon had headed off in a different direction did Trayvon then come out of "nowhere" and confront Zimmerman from his rear left.
There are only two possible scenarios in which that could have happened.
1. Trayvon laid in wait and only came out once Zimmerman had passed him the second time as he returned to his vehicle.
2. Trayvon had made it far enough out of Zimmerman's sight down that path that he was very close to home but instead decided to return to confront Zimmerman and approached him from his rear left.
They both suggest planning the attack that followed. Coming at Zimmerman from his rear to accomplish that attack is what makes it an ambush.

1. At no point did the "Police" tell him not to engage. A call-taker made a suggestion that they did not need him to follow.If George Zimmerman had not engaged and instead listened to the police who had already told him not to,

Wrong.Nobody murdered Nicole Simpson either by that measure.
The Zimmerman case and OJ case are totally different.
