re: #693 Targetpractice

I don’t feel like spending the next hour looking for past threads, especially when there are questions and accusations coming as I look. What is it you wish to accuse me of? I’d like to know so I can begin to mount a defense.

See, this bizarre, self-pitying defensiveness doesn’t make you or your argument look good. I’m not accusing you of a damn thing except perhaps being wrong about something. I don’t think it reflects on your morals or your ethics or your worth as a human being, and you know I don’t argue that way, so why pretend I do? For fuck’s sake.

I am absolutely sure there are some people who say that Zimmerman’s testimony is all a pack of lies. That shouldn’t lead you to dodge questions that show Zimmerman’s testimony is inconsistent or nonsensical.

It’s entirely possible that Zimmerman was all hopped up and jumpy and wasn’t thinking straight, and that’s why he crossed back to look for an address on the previous street. He may have walked down the block a bit after finishing his call and then cut over— this would explain why he and Martin ran into each other again, and why it would have come as a shock to both of them. Otherwise, there’s very little ‘innocent’ explanation for why the shooting occurred where it did.

See, that’s dealing with Zimmerman’s inconsistency, giving a rational explanation for it, without having to dodge the question.
