(47,992 posts)if Trayvon did do this, these aren't life threatening injuries.
Let's hear some estimates of what it actually takes to be ABLE to beat someone to death.
Trayvon wasn't even remotely close to that ability, nor the opportunity here.
And, **IF** the kid DID do this, he must have had the heart of a lion to do so against an armed attacker in the dark. I kind of wish he had turned tail and run, to be alive this day, but Z, as he had already clearly demonstrated would have pursued without cause and Tray at minimum could have probably been arrested when caught, for being suspicious. Maybe he didn't want to be arrested FOR NOTHING, maybe he thought TTE "I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't", so he fought. If he'd been mine I would REALLY wish he had run, I kind of do anyway, but I am glad that he had the heart to stand for his rights as a human being. I wish he hadn't had to die for it, which is exactly what SYG forces and the defense are going to try to establish.
Think of the precedent set for ALL Americans.
