The net and DU was awash with conflicting claims and things that had no basis in available data. For example, we had no real information about Zimmerman's injuries before the tape came out this afternoon, just conjecture. Is it ivory tower to want solid facts before coming to conclusions or is it rational adult behavior?

The right kind of injuries could have supported a claim of self defense ProgressiveProfessor Mar 2012 #43

Thank you for posting the video. EVEN A GRAINY video plainly shows the TRUTH LaydeeBug Mar 2012 #10

Yes, it's ridiculous. EFerrari Mar 2012 #13

No, he needs to be charged with obstruction of justice! n/t markpkessinger Mar 2012 #18

I'm sure he DID have blood on him: kestrel91316 Mar 2012 #22

Actually the police filed a report saying they did not believe Zimmerman and . The DA did this. robinlynne Mar 2012 #23

I think you're right. This has always seemed like someone's been protecting him. nt LaydeeBug Mar 2012 #30

One investigator filed an affidavit in favor of charging him. EFerrari Mar 2012 #31

the chief investigator. the head of the investigation. filed an affidavit saying to arrest him, and robinlynne Mar 2012 #33

Yes, and the department spokes-spinner said EFerrari Mar 2012 #35

That is not what I read. I read that the district attorney went there in person to release him. robinlynne Mar 2012 #36

It's possible but there's so much fabrication going on EFerrari Mar 2012 #45

This is weird. I was looking for the article with that police dept statement EFerrari Mar 2012 #49

Interesting DallasNE Mar 2012 #34

No blood anywhere. No observable injuries. And this is not exactly a "grainy" video. Th1onein Mar 2012 #41
