So, it's legit to kill a person just because of the music he listened to or the tweet he tweeted? So then it's fine for a mass murderers of prostitutes to do what they do because of the prostitutes' background and past criminal offenses?
What kind of logic is that?
There is no evidence whatsoever to support your insinuation that Trayvon started a fist fight or threatened Zimmerman’s life or reached for his gun with or without provocation or was the aggressor. Why do you persist in unproven assertion as if it were fact?
On the contrary, all the known evidence from Zimmerman’s call to the Sanford police non-emergency line and his defiance against the dispatcher’s instruction not to follow clearly showed that it was Zimmerman who was the aggressor who chased after Trayvon with verbal hostility under his breath even while still on the phone with the dispatcher. Not only this showed his hostile impulsivity towards Trayvon at that time, but it also showed his lack of concern for flaunting his hostility in front of the police dispatcher.
At the same time, in Zimmerman’s own words, Trayvon was trying to run away from him and sought refuge under cover of the darkness between two rows of building where car pursuit was impossible. But, Zimmerman got out of his car to follow no matter what.
Nothing in Zimmerman’s own words during the conversation with the SPD dispatcher had he mentioned anything about Trayvon exhibiting any aggressive behavior toward him while he was in his car doggedly following him. These are what we know per the evidence.
The claim that Trayvon suddenly turned into the aggressor who started a fist fight is a stretch even though there was no physical evidence on his body of any sign of having involved in a severe fight nor any sign of struggle noted in Zimmerman’s clean, stainless and pristine outer jacket nor in his well tucked in inner clothing to concretely prove Trayvon savagely attacked him. Nobody has ruled out the possibility that Zimmerman might have caused his own injuries by hitting his head against something while relentlessly pursuing Trayvon in the dark. There was also no forensic evidence that Trayvon reached for Zimmerman’s gun.
To try to shove down our throat that Zimmerman suddenly changed from a hostile person as evidenced in his police call into a gentle and meek victim who nevertheless won the fight with his gun and that Trayvon, who was trying to run away as evidenced in the police tape by Zimmerman's words, suddenly became an unprovoked killer in and under a dark cover where no one saw how it went down but only Zimmerman's words, is beyond pale.
Having said that, it is not to say that Trayvon absolutely did not struggle or fight with Zimmerman during their encounter or that he did not try to reach for Zimmerman’s gun. At this point without a court trial the most we can say is we don’t know. What we have at this point is Zimmerman’s words after the fact. If Trayvon did all that fighting, who is to say he wasn’t trying to defend himself from the aggressor who relentlessly chose to follow him without a cause? These questions should be addressed and settled in court of law by the jury from evidence presented and cross-examined by both counsels.
Yet, you and your pro-zimmerman cohorts persistently resort to dishonest debate in presenting unsubstantiated claim as fact, evidenced only by Zimmerman’s assertion after the fact. Furthermore, you are also engaging in the fallacy of red herring when the point in contention of this debate is about whether Trayvon, who had just turned 17, was considered a child or an adult.
By your logic, if a person was old enough to join the military then he is old enough to be considered an adult, then you must agree with Iran’s policy of sending 12 to 13 year olds to go to the front line to die as adult soldiers during the Iran-Iraq war while the fattened mullahs and khoumeini sat in their nice sofas telling them on TV that they would get their 72 virgins in heaven. While I see the mullahs and khoumeini as war criminals, you would simply see them as war commanders sending 12 and 13 year old “adults” to their certain death.
Shall I eviscerate your screed line by line?
