straw do you think that getting beaten severly enough to receive a broken nose, black eyes, gashes to your head from having it slammed against the concrete and then the person assualting you going for your gun is reason enough to fear for your life?
Lots of assumptions there. You have to believe zimmy here. Do you? There are a lot of inconsistencies, and it really sounds like he exaggerates shit just a little, all of the time, to serve his own purposes. Stretching the truth on ANYTHING when you shot someoene will get you prison time. Stretching the truth on a few things? Really bad.
If you wanna ASSUME... we can assume the other way too (as the prosecution will)
Kid ran away - Zimm admitted that. Zim pursued him for 2 blocks - we know cause zimm said he was at truck and he shot kid 2 blocks away. Kid saw a grownup with a gun chasing him thru the yards and out of fear of his life, swung first.
ONE PUNCH could have caused a broken nose (which is instantly 2 black eyes, if you've ever been punched hard in the nose).
And since he's a glass jawed bitch, zimerman went down to the ground and cracked his head.
Trayvon was trying to keep from getting shot by the man who had chased him 2 blocks with a gun. Trying to pin his hands so he didn't shoot him.
See ,that's how the prosecutor will paint it. JUST AS MUCH EVIDENCE FOR THAT
