In reply to the discussion: Zimmerman: Just play the dispatch conversation and sit down. [View all]John2
(2,730 posts)5. Need we say more.
From Zimmerman's own mouth " Shit he is running." He later changed it to just walking to make it seem like Trayvon didn't run from him. Every indication gives it like he was following Trayvon and Martin saw him all the time following him. Martin probably got scared and started running. What he said to Jenteal about Zimmerman being a creepy cracker following him, makes sense is a normal reaction from a young Black teenager. Especially with all these white supremacists they have been taught about.

There is something wrong with Zimmerman. He has a history of violence and blaming other people.

Too many unsupervised people with mental problems in this country. Zimmerman is an example.

My opinion precisely. In addition, he has this kind of confused look on his face.

I remember hearing about a study that said that if you carry a gun you think others do also.
