    Tony if you attack some one is not their reaction to fight back?

    Zimmerman should not have been stalking the kid....period. That is what will hang him .... and rightly so...

    Jim and their is the issue. Martin may have felt like he was being attacked, so he attacked, Zimmerman got attacked and reacted.

    I still don't believe it's 2nd degree murder, but I still believe Zimmerman is at fault to a degree.

    So its okay to go around provoking a fight, and when they attack me, I can shoot them?

    I just don't buy that wild west mentality.

    Freezers are filled and seasons are winding down. Time to beat dead horses.

    As I said before, two fools met one night. Wsa it the intent of either for it to end as it did?
    I highly doubt it. Was it a good ending? Certainly not!
    Could it have ended differently? Yes if either man had thought it through.
    Once again 2 fools met! Ones dead the others life is ruined.
    And for what? Skittles! :)

    Idk Jim, I might kill someone for skittles. Especially the crazy cores. Damn I love those things.

    I agree with all those statements. It was a perfect storm, and there should be consequences on both sides. One bad decision does not negate another. Boy I wish that were true. Would have kept me out of the free clinic in college.

    Matt let me ask y!ou this.
    If your son was suspended form school for third time in a school year would he have been out of your home roaming the streets?
    I know damn well Mine wouldn't have been. Where are today's parents? Most of these kids have no role models.
    And with out any , this scenario will be played out over and over again.

    So now it's the parents fault, I always knew you were a closet liberal, haha.

    I do not call going to the store for skittles and tea as roaming the streets, but no way my son gets skittles after being suspended.

    That is a great question, and I wish we didn't have to ask it. Parents are either not around, or they want to be a friend with their kids more than a parent.

    I'm not sure where my son would be, but I could tell you he never would have made it to his third suspension.
