But Miami Dade police were not able to match the jewelry to anything reported stolen. So it is a fact, Trayvon was never punished for the jewelry incident. <a href="http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/dpp/news/local/fact-vs-fiction-in-trayvon-case-03282012" target="_blank">http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/d...03282012</a>

Originally Posted By dshyates There in no indication that the jewelry was stolen. What would he be "punished" for? Once again Martin had NO criminal record what so ever. And no matter how badly you want to make him the bad guy, there's simply NOTHING that points to Martin being the thug you claim him to be.

But I don't think even this badly written law holds if person A (the shooter) was the person who pursued person B. How can person A be said to have been "standing his ground?" We'll see what comes out at trial, but it wouldn't surprise me if they convict of manslaughter.

Originally Posted By DDMAN26 <<I truly believe in what I defend>> So you believe that Zimmerman should have shot Martin. Look I've gone on record now saying Martin may not have been this squeaky clean kid, honor roll and football team, he could have been a complete jerk. And the "alleged" allegations of Martin being a burgular could have happened, but that seems to be all heresay. But Donnie none of that has anything to do with this case. Zimmerman shot Martin plain and simple.
Originally Posted By DyGDisney I wonder if Donny and his ilk would be defending Zimmerman so earnestly if he were a black, self-appointed neighborhood watchman who had killed a white "thug" kid under the exact same circumstances.
Originally Posted By 182 "But Donnie none of that has anything to do with this case. Zimmerman shot Martin plain and simple." I don't think anyone is disputing that part but I am saying Zimmerman did not provoke the assault, and had at the time reasonable grounds to believe, and in good faith believed, that Martin intended to take his life, or do him great bodily harm.
Originally Posted By Dabob2 You have nothing but Zimmerman's word for any of that. You're believing what you want to believe, and ignoring the parts of Zimmerman's story that don't add up.
Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan He's trolling. He's staking out a position he knows runs counter to, well, everyone. He does so to get a response, and then responds with the next line of bait. I swear to God, I don't know why everyone can't see it for what it is. But hundreds of posts in, the trolling keeps working.
Originally Posted By Dabob2 I guess I give people too much credit or something. Beau was a troll; DD devolved into one. Donny is wrong-headed, but I don't know about troll? Is it possible for someone to be sincere at times, and indulge in troll-itude at others? Probably.
