Initial Police Report:

WESH PDF Viewer

"While I was in such close contact with Zimmerman, I could observe that his back appeared to be wet and was covered in grass, as if he had been laying on his back on the ground. Zimmerman was also bleeding from the nose and back of his head."

Zimmerman was placed in the rear of my police vehicle and was given first aid by the SFD. While the SFD was attending to Zimmerman, I over heard him state 'I was yelling for somebody to help me, but no one would help me.' At no point did I question Zimmerman about the incident that had taken place. Once Zimmerman was cleared by the SFD, he was transported to the Sanford Police Department."

Makes one wonder what the caucasian folks are so afraid of when it involves the black contingency of the nation. (or any dark pigmentation ).

Possible theory: History has shown how the caucasian has treated the black in the US.....between slavery , segregation, outcasting them, dehumanizing them , lynching them....and gosh knows what else.....

Might this fear be related to a possible overall black revolt out of the suppressed rage they might be carrying due to years of abuse from the white. Maybe even some guilt.

Why the fear of them.?? It's not like the white has not committed horrendous crimes on each other.

What is the real threat?? Psychological and other wise?? Is there some kind of threat to the "status" of the while person??

White people have nothing to do with this you racist. Zimmerman is Hispanic.

With such a steady diet of sickeningly slanted, trollish media that we're all blasted with, it's not hard to see where much of the fault lays. That and uniformed closed-minded people.



MSNBC's Convenient Ellipses Make Zimmerman Look Racist




In a published report bylined "msnbc.com Staff and NBC News," a quote attributed to Trayvon Martin shooter George Zimmerman, appears to be purposefully distorted by the left to read as though Zimmerman is a racist. A full reading of the transcript of the quoted 911 call suggests nothing of the kind. Here's what MSNBC staff and NBC News published.

“This guy looks like he’s up to no good … he looks black,” Zimmerman told a police dispatcher from his car. His father has said that Zimmerman is Hispanic, grew up in a multiracial family, and is not racist.
The quote gives the impression Zimmer was somehow equating the fact that Martin was black with his looking suspicious, or "up to no good." Here is what MSNBC/NBC News left out thanks to a convenient ellipsis.

ZIMMERMAN: This guy looks like he's up to no good, [begin ellipsis] or he's on drugs or something. It's raining and he's just walking around, looking about.
911 DISPATCHER: Okay, is this guy, is he white, black, or Hispanic? [end ellipsis]
ZIMMERMAN: He looks black.

There's nothing better than a little divisive reporting, to stir up the nutters.

That's going a bit far; we already know an investigator didn't believe Martin's story.

Ya know, if it were me that figured out that I had screwed up by shooting some kid after I thought he had a gun, found out it was a phone and a bag of skittles, and didn't want to face the music, it wouldn't be too far fetched to think I couldn't give myself a fat lip, bloody nose, and a few scratches on my head and concoct a story that sounded reasonable. A little pain and loss of blood beats a court battle and jailtime, IMO.

Just a possibility to consider.

Zimmerman is just another American cowboy who probably likes to watch Justified

 

[damngrumpy]

It is time to take a deep breath here. the demonstrations are becoming louder and more forceful
and if things are not toned down and the rhetoric controlled we will see violence the like of that
has not been seen for more than half a century.
The more i watch the more I am beginning to think this Zimmerman killed the kid for no reason
the trial has not been held that is true but he went after the kid and that does not follow the
rules of self defence under the State Law. He does not appear to have a broken anything
in police file pictures and he didn't appear to be someone who was beaten up.
the 911 tapes don't back up the story either so far, The most troubling development is
the fact that he went into hiding and is resting up from what?
I think an arrest is in order, if for no other reason the authorities need to know the true
state of injuries if any. There is a hell of a lot that doesn't add up. Doesn't mean he is
guilty but it needs to be professionally cleared up by science.

Here's one of the most notorious trolls:


Al Sharpton: Civil disobedience will escalate if Zimmerman remains free



George Zimmerman Trayvon Al Sharpton: Rev. Al Sharpton will escalate efforts if George Zimmerman isn't arrested in Trayvon's death. - Orlando Sentinel

(Al is likely a fan of Katt 'the comedian' Williams)



Not everyone buys his bullshyte:

Civil rights leaders condemn Sharpton's call for escalated civil disobedience

[damngrumpy]

Sharpton did not advocate for the escalation of disobedience he merely stated
the reality of the situation and we are watching the slow demise of sanity here.

 

[Locutus]

"I will speak about how the National Action Network will move to the next level if Zimmerman isn't arrested," Sharpton said, who founded the organization. He added that it was the Martin family and lawyers who first asked him to get involved and nationalize this story.

Do keep us posted on his rally today eh. :lol:


It would be nice to see this dude owned as he was in the Tawana Brawley hoax.

Yeah, I was gonna bring that up.

Al Sharpton is about as loathsome a bit of pond scum as there is on the face of the earth.

Trayvon Martin Case: George Zimmerman Was 'Jekyll And Hyde,' Former Co-Worker Says

Zimmerman, the 28-year-old Sanford, Fla., neighborhood watch volunteer who shot the unarmed 17-year-old Martin to death last month, was fired from a job securing illegal house parties for “being too aggressive,” according to the New York Daily News, which quoted a former colleague of Zimmerman’s. According to the co-worker, Zimmerman worked for two agencies that provided security for house parties from 2001 to 2005.

“Usually he was just a cool guy,” said the former co-worker, who the newspaper didn't name. “But it was like Jekyll and Hyde. When dude snapped, he snapped.” The Daily News said Zimmerman earned $50 to $100 a night for the parties. He was fired for being too aggressive with patrons.

“He had a temper and he became a liability,” the newspaper quoted the former co-worker as saying. “One time this woman was acting a little out of control. She was drunk. George lost his cool and totally overreacted,” he said. “It was weird, because he was such a cool guy, but he got all nuts. He picked her up and threw her. It was pure rage. She twisted her ankle. Everyone was flipping out.”

Trayvon Martin's body showed no sign of fight, contradicting Zimmerman's claim - National Crime | Examiner.com

Sanford, Fla. - According to the funeral director who prepared Trayvon Martin's body for burial, the teen showed no signs he'd been in a fight with the only injury on him being the single gunshot wound to the chest that killed him. This appears to contradict the claim of George Zimmerman, who alleges he and the teen were engaged in a violent fight before he fatally shot the young man.

“We could see no physical signs like there had been a scuffle [or] there had been a fight,” funeral director Richard Kurtz told CBS News. “The hands – I didn't see any knuckles, bruises or what have you. And that is something we would have covered up if it would have been there.”

While it is absolutely repugnent to advance any form of racism, many modern anti racism advocates remind me of Dr Spock's take on child raising. At least in his case he recanted when when his methods were proven counterproductive.

 

[Locutus]

Yep. The 'advancement' that occurs far too often and is blatantly obvious in this case is highly dangerous to society but a great tool for the politicians and social leaders. That's dispicable.

The sanest, kindess and most level-headed of us in here would still be treated as a crazed racist by the usual suspects and their like-minded legions. The perpetual scab-picking is insidious.
