re: #2 EiMitch

Contradictory evidence created reasonable doubt. Somebody was lying, but who? From what I’m hearing, the jury had no way to know. Odds are we’ll never know what really happened.

But yeah, Zimmerman should’ve stayed the hell back in the first place. If you call 911 and then don’t listen to the emergency operator, you’re a f***ing moron. Nobody had to die that night.

Unfortunately, tho, a 911 operator cannot give a lawful command, so Zimmerman had no oigation to obey.

Stand your ground really must be repealed, because in any violent confrontation in which there aren’t any witnesses, any death can be explained away by self defense, and the survivor has the enormous advantage of the other side of the story being worm food.

That is simply fucked up.
