  • Possible, but It's seldom the guy with the gun is the one yelling for help.
    It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

      • I don't think we should rely on the opinons of the parents of either involved person here. They're hardly unbiased.

          • I think all prosecutions should be social media inspired.

              Yes. Can you imagine the victim's father coming forward and saying, "You know, I gave the old recording a second go around and I have to say it definitely sounds like that Zimmerman boy was crying out for help."

                • "He assured us it was self-defense, so we didn't charge him" isn't the standard of murder investigation I would want in my town.

                  If a vigilante provokes a confrontation -- which seems to be one of the few things not in dispute -- how can a subsequent death possibly be considered as without legal ramifications? The victim has not been accused of trespassing or any property crime, and was unarmed.

                  Something's not right here.

                  • The kid was black, Jr.

                    If it were a white kid, the shooter would've been arrested on the spot, regardless of whether or not the shooting was justified.

                      100k Retweets or Likes. Stumbles aren't acceptable. +1s would also work, but getting 100k of them is mathematically impossible given that only 4 people actually use Google+.

                      • I think you guys are being a bit ridiculous. The man called in the confrontation, stood by the body and had a legal permit for his gun. In those circumstances I would assume it's normal procedure to do some investigation before charging him.

                        • Maybe it's just me, but I'd prefer that the cops be relatively sure somebody committed a crime before arresting them.

                              In this case, I'd say it's just you.
