(2,730 posts)pursued Martin whether you like it or not. There is clear evidence what he thought about Martin also. The defense tried their best to make claims Zimmerman had no ill feelings towards Martin. They failed miserably. There is also clear evidence Martin ran when he saw Zimmerman from Zimmerman's own words to the 911 operator.
You can continue the evidence with what Martin said to Jenteal, which proved that he had concerns about Zimmerman following him and that was why he try to lose him. That is evidence that you can't refute. It all points to provocation and the events that followed. The only evidence in question is Zimmerman's fabricated lies. No matter what John Good saw, he can't help Zimmerman there either, because he can't testify to who started the fight. Zimmerman's use of a gun even makes it more difficult, including the difference in physical capacity. The Defense went a long way in trying to get around that too, but the photo of Trayvon Martin speaks for itself. He was not that much of a physical speciman. In fact, Martin was pretty slim. Zimmerman was 42 pounds heavier. Most people by now can see this man is a liar. And if they had thrown in his past aggressive history of following persons while playing police, it would have been a slam dunk. He was overly aggressive with a motorist in the same manner playing cop.
