An abrasion on his index finger! Well, there you go. George HAD to shoot the little fucker.

All of this "information" coming out NOW.

Zimmerman, trotted into the police station with no signs of a broken nose, and now we learn he had a broken nose!

And Trayvon, that thug...an ABRASION ON HIS INDEX FINGER?

Why...I am outraged.

My only regret is that George's Website is no longer active so I can't send him more money.

He should be released and put back on the streets immediately, where I am confident he will be welcomed with open arms, now that the truth has been revealed. THANK you, George!

He could have scraped the sidewalk. You know, the same sidewalk Trayvon was bashing Zimmerman's head on.

2. fwiw, i had a broken nose with zero bruising after a car accident

my septum was "accordioned" and i had broken nasal bones.
the ent said it's often not easy to tell if a nose is broken without an x-ray.
sure enough, the x-ray showed the broken bones.

perhaps the fact that my face was slammed against a cushioned back of a car seat meant less surface damage, though i obviously hit with enough force to break my nose.

one of maybe 3 times in my life i was not wearing a seat belt -- back of a cab that didn't have any.

3. If Trayvon broke that motherfucker's nose because he pulled a gun on him...

...then Trayvon was standing his ground.

The fact of the matter is that NO ONE is going to prove the chronology of events as long as Trayvon stays dead.

Zimmerman has a record of behavior that directly leads up to his pulling this kind of stunt.

I still believe he's going to walk on this. That means he'll spend the rest of his fucking life looking over his shoulder, and I'm afraid that's as close to "justice" as this case is likely to get.

just noting that a lack of bruising doesn't mean that a nose isn't broken.

but then, unless the defense can produce x-rays,....

The "broken nose" thing just sets me off, and it had nothing to do with what you posted.

5. Let's see. A little more information last week.....

Just tweak the story line a little bit.
A little more information yesterday.
Just change some of the dialog.
Leek a little more information today.
Can we show off some forensic work like the TV show 'Bones'?
Heck fire, we'll get this script just the way we want it.
We're not looking for Miami vice. Don't play it up too much.
Just remember to show off how good the police work was.

Dam! I can't wait for the movie.

Can't you just picture Zimmerman singing it as the curtain falls?
