[QUOTE="brett636, post: 956504, member: 249"] I would hardly call speculation on an internet news site "facts". Sort of like the argument that the video shows Zimmerman without a head injury when you are basing that claim on a low quality video camera after Zimmerman would have been cleaned up. My guess is a medic was on scene and cleaned him up hence the lack of blood in the video. The daily caller blew up a picture of the back of Zimmerman's head and you can clearly see a 3 inch gash is present. The more this story unfolds the more I see Zimmerman as an innocent man. From the sounds of it Trayvon fell into the trap a lot of young black males do, and thats immersing themselves into a culture that glorifies violence and death. As Trayvon attempted to sharpen his street thug skills he decided to pick a fight with someone that he assumed he could take, only he picked a fight with someone carrying a gun and it cost him his life. You see, this is the difference between you and I. At the beginning of this I went on the facts we knew at the time and speculated that Zimmerman would be facing a 2nd degree murder charge, but as more facts have come out my outlook has evolved with it. Instead of accepting the narrative that this was a race based shooting I kept my mind open to all possibilities. If Zimmerman's story is true, and is corroborated by the evidence the police collected along with the eye witness reports then I don't see why he can't get let off a free man. Do not forget the police took this case to the local DA for prosecution and were told they didn't have a case worth prosecuting. It should be interesting to see if the grand jury comes to the same conclusion. [/QUOTE]
