got scared, and ran upstairs when the shot was fired. so how much did he really see? then you have the kid walking his dog whose mom states that he was coached by the police to state that martin was on top. then there's the female witness that stated that police encouraged her to say it was martin on top when she believes it was martin that was screaming. on top of that, martin's single slight injury to his knuckle doesn't exactly comport with the MMA narrative.

If he did do MMA style he would have far more than just a scratch one knuckle.

And if Zimmerman showed his gun, just showed it, then Trayvon had the right to defend himself

I don't have a problem with gun owners, just those who want to carry them everywhere
