Um, you are the one who said he didn't need to know the facts. Aren't you ?
Sure didn't. I'm pretty sure that I did not specify who didn't need to know the facts.

I've never seen the photo until you posted it. I've watched some of the trial everyday. Maybe if you and others would stop spreading it around?
In high-stress situations - and let's face it, GZ is under a lot of stress - we can't always control our reactions to things.
I had a young lady once who, in one of the most stressful times of her life, broke out in laughter. Where other people were crying, tears literally dropping off their cheeks, she laughed in our faces. We were understandably annoyed, and reacted in ... "proper" ... military fashion. And she laughed even harder.
Turns out, she was of the type that in high-stress situations, she couldn't control her emotional outbursts. She didn't find us funny in the least; in fact, if she were able to react the same way as others, then she would have been on the floor sobbing and whimpering.
Oh, that's obvious. The government wants to be seen as doing something about this heinous crime against minority youth.
Because, even before OJ, the "entertainment value" of such things requires that CNN, Fox, and other entertainment -- er, um, "news" -- sources have to keep their ratings going, and by golly, the constitution protects a "free press."
I deal with inner-city, outer-city kids of every skin color, creed and culture. And I'll tell you guys something that the average person im America may not have learned yet.
But you call a Black person a thug or a gangsta, you might as well have called them the "n" word.
And they will flat out tell you that's what it's perceived as. Several of the kids have told me that they are onto the way folks in the media, schools and the churches use the words because it's politically incorrect to say what they really want to say for fear of being branded a racist.
This not much you can tell me about "imAmerian" kids; I grew up in Houston, Texas, not out in the country.
Yes, I use the dreaded N-word quite often. It doesn't apply to all blacks, just to the lazy, unmotivated, give-me-a-lifelong-handout-so-I-don't-have-to-work blacks.
If the black community was one-tenth as bothered by the N-word, as they claim to be, they wouldn't use it in much of their music and constantly when referring to each other.
I don't fear being branded a racist; I don't care what other people like you think.
If after me being married to a Mexican woman for over 40 years doesn't settle your thoughts about whether or not I am a racist, too bad.
Don't have to know what he's been through day in and day out. ....
You sympathizers of Zimmerman are seriously messed up in your reasoning! :BangHead:
LOL
And you folks who want him in jail before he's found guilty spit on the Bill of Rights.
Ha, I want "true" justice which you spit on because of a political agenda upon which your reasoning focuses on more of because of your own prejudices and ignorance…justice should be blind to such things…yet obviously you can’t see past it. All are created equal skips your mind in the process of justice and you speak of the Bill of Rights to defend presupposed ideas that this is a race issue and use it to express your sympathizes. LOL
Zimmerman was welcomed to the real world...take note.
We'll see what happens when you're falsely accused. BTW, what was the event? The pic is probably 1/200th of a second. Think you're getting the whole story?
Zimmerman didn't take Martin's life. Martin gave it away when he attacked Zimmerman, broke his nose and started beating his head into the concrete.
The only unjust thing is that we are having a trial at all. Zimmerman should have been congratulated and sent on his way. Martin's family should have been told to come take their gansta want-to-be son and dispose of his remains.
Translation...."Facts are unimportant to me."
You crack me up, Zaac. You are a self-pious windbag.
Me thinks you have a personal axe to grind on this issue. Your posts seem most irrational.
Don't take it so personal Rev. I simply chose to pull the plug on the political agenda motives around here
According to the testimony Zimmerman was returning to his vehicle when Martin became the aggressor. He wasn't merely 'standing his ground'.Oh, I see, Martin didn't have the right to stand his ground, but Zimmerman did. Therefore, Zimmerman has no responsibility WHATSOEVER in escalating this through his poor judgment to a point of taking a life a teenagers life who made some poor judgment in how he responded to being assaulted. Got it...
And just what are those?
