In reply to the discussion: Zimmerman said the gun was behind his hip. [View all]madashelltoo
(1,828 posts)7. Can you imagine the rush Zimmerman felt
When Trayvon ran away from him. The wimpy, fat kid had frightened a tall, skinny black guy. Zimmerman was tripping on power. He had to stretch that high out a little longer. Hold him for the cops. That would have kept Zim awake for weeks filled with his new power. That damned Trayvon had to go and die and mess it all up. A he said Zim said battle would have fed that high for months, knowing he had the upper hand because all black teens are guilty of something.
