I'll start.

I have called 911 zero times in the last 8 years.

Zero, zilch, zippo. Not once, and my neighbors have two teenage sons...who wear hoodies.

Over an 8 year span, that between 5 and 6 calls per year.

Good God!

From what I understand, it's not exactly an upscale complex. And if kids are playing in traffic, a call to 911 seems appropriate. Of course if kids were getting hit by cars and killed, the numbnuts would screech that Zimm wasn't making enough 911 calls.


Heh. Looks like you beat me to it.

Heh, you! You were only 1 1/2 hours behind the curve. Do you call the police every 2 months or so? Do you call the police to chase kids out of the street? Sure.

B U L L.

I've seen worse in a high school football practice session.

That little boy-man wasn't hurt physically. His pride was though.

And he soooooooooooooooooo wanted to play the hero.

This isn't about soccer.

Its about little boy Zimmerman.

It's about getting your head bashed in. It's really not difficult for thinking people to make the connection between head injuries and death.

The soccer ref is off-topic. Tell me again where you got your MD?

Different injuries, different outcomes.

When to Seek Medical Attention for a Head Injury

[quote] Along the sides of your head in the area around your temples, your epidural space houses an artery called your middle meningeal artery, whose job is to provide steady blood supply to your meninges. The portion of skull that protects this area is quite thin and weak compared to the rest of your skull. This is why even a low force blow to this area could lead to a fracture and tearing of your middle meningeal artery. [end quote]

Zimmerman had a cut on the back of the head, where the cranium is thicker. Unlike Mr. Portillo, George Zimmerman chose to wait until the next day to seek medical treatment, so it's likely that he wasn't vomiting, or vomiting blood.
