re: #559 goddamnedfrank

In no rational world does that make Good the only eye witness. In no rational world does that excuse ignoring his massive credibility / impartiality problems.

No, you’re just cherry picking and misrepresenting the testimony, while totally pretending the other eye witnesses didn’t exist. Also, there was no “testimony that Zimmerman was a wimp and couldn’t fight.” The testimony was that he expressed an avid interest in learning how to fight but was assessed by others as physically soft and ineffectual. That testimony just as plausibly paints Zimmerman as a sniveling wannabe bully who felt the need for an edge, hence the gun.

Pardon me, but I said none of us were there and none of us saw what happened. How on earth is that “chiding others for not knowing the testimony in court”?

And are you claiming that Good did not say he saw what appeared to be Martin on top of Zimmerman? And are you claiming that Zimmerman did not have injuries consistent with being punched in the face and having his head pushed back into the pavement? And are you claiming that Martin’s visible injuries were other than as I described — the fatal gunshot and scrapes on his knuckles and nothing else?

It sounds like some real cherry picking to ignore all that and to ignore if that makes it impossible for the prosecution to have proved his case beyond reasonable doubt.
