I really don't care about the reporting, except for the reporting of the facts of this case. The background of Zimmerman obviously does matter morebecause it's been proven that he has been aggressive, and what happened that night was the utmost of aggressive nature - someone died. Unless any of the things being brought up about Trayvon's past transcend into why he was shot that night, then no, nothing needs really be reported about this. At all.
If this were taken in front of a jury, these new discoveries would not be relevant to the night in question, and I could almost bet that any objection to bringing up this information would be sustained by the judge. Unfortunately, as it stands today, a judge and jury will never hear any of this.
If I were a stripper would that negate the fact that someone who didn't know me or I know them, broke into my house and murdered me? If it's clear that it was a break in and I did not invite this person in, why would me being a stripper be brought up? Just to make me look not so innocent? Do not so innocent people only deserved to not get raped? Do only the best of the best of kids deserve not to get shot down by a gun wielding lunatic? Yes I know this is extremes, but again, who cars about the background of the victim when it has nothing to do with the actual crime?
First of all.....Zimmerman has to be arrested and tried for anything to be relevant in a court of law.
Secondly, irresponsible reporting has EVERYTHING to do with it. You obviously are so blinded in your myopic witchhunt for "justice" that you haven't thought about how the portrayal of these events in the media can affect hundreds of other peoples welfare and affect the retarded majority of Americans perception.
Depending on your perspective this is a big or little deal. However what's more troubling to me about this is that his English teacher said he was only suspended for 5 days for tardiness, thus she is a liar.
I can't believe how much of a mess this case seems already. I am beyond confused and not sure how to look at it, but it seems certain groups that are in no way related or had any idea the victim even existed until the point of his death, know all the answers.
Can we all just settle down and come to some sort of logical conclusion based on the evidence as it unfolds?
MARCH 26--The mother of Trayvon Martin has filed two applications to secure trademarks containing her late son’s name, records show.
Sabrina Fulton is seeking marks for the phrases “I Am Trayvon” and “Justice for Trayvon,” according to filings made last week with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

Just curious, but I'm trying to figure out why one would do this.
Man that is cold, maybe she was the one who provided the bag of weed that got him suspended at school?
No report from a medical source? ER? Clinic? attending physician?
Would you be satisfied with a report from the EMT's?
Would you be satisfied with an eyewitness account of him being jumped from behind or otherwise attacked?
This fascination with the depth and breadth of his injuries has gotten me wondering to what difference they will make in the final analysis of laying charges based on him "feeling in emminant danger of loss of life or serious injury".
Your nutty laws are to blame for this clusterflop and the sooner you address the conflict of 2nd amendment rights as pertains to CCW and the propensity for the wrong people to have guns the better!
Um no, because a crime is already being committed which led to the assailant getting stabbed. No self defense there. Let's be realistic. If Zimmerman pulled his gun FIRST and threatened Martin's life before anything else, that would not be self defense because his OWN actions caused someone to get killed. You could say that Zimmerman's actions are what killed Martin, which is true, but the actions of Martin caused the gun to come out. If he wouldn't have attacked Zimmerman, he'd still be alive most likely. It's a real tough call, let the law sort it out, not public opinion, the American public are mostly dumb and just believe whatever they read or hear on their nightly network news.
What the hell are you talking about? IF implies that you don't know what happened which is the same thing I just said. How can you say it doesn't matter how it starts and then say "IF Zimmerman pulled his gun first he can't claim self defense" I don't understand the logic you're attempting to use.
