They asked him to produce a ticket, which he did, then kept pulling the guys earbuds out of his ears to tell him he either better get on a train or leave the station. They ran his ID and it came back clean. They guy looked a little baked or high but was just sitting there listening to music. He got up to take a walk around the station. I watched the whole thing and it seems they got nervous. Then they proceeded to pretend they werent watching him as he sat down again and they surrounded him again and had a bullshit conversation about candy they liked. Fucking clowns. The guy had no weapons or even a bag. Just sitting there waiting for a train.

As the the great Slick Rick said "This type of shit happens everyday".

So you say yourself the guy looked high or a little baked? Tell me why the the transit officers shouldn't approach him? You also say this guy spent too much time a a train station ? Maybe they suspected him loitering?

i would bet the house and farm that the defense injects reasonable doubt into the eyewitness account. it's worthless, especially since the police were "correcting" other people's accounts, rather than just writing down what they said.

the 9/11 tapes prove he was not just sparking up a conversation about the weather, zimmerman himself twice said he was pursuing the guy. then there is the phone records from when he was talking to his girlfriend. he pursued. nothing would have happened had zimemrman simply called the cops and sat back. he was the initial provoker.

how can he be at fault for walking home from the store?

lulz.

if zimmerman stood his ground instead of pursuing, the result would have been that trayvon ate a bag of skittles.

"Either way, the SYG law will continue as it should."

I agree with that.

Hey guys, don't rely on evidence or people who saw what happened, just ask UB, he knows what happened, he has a fucking crystal ball.

You assume he confronted him.

you're putting your faith into this police force?

smart move.

"i would bet the house and farm that the defense injects reasonable doubt into the eyewitness account. it's worthless, especially since the police were "correcting" other people's accounts, rather than just writing down what they said."

Take a breath, UB, and catch your bearings. The "defense" here will be representing Zimmer; they have no reason to "inject reasonable doubt" about the eye witness.

The prosecutor, if there is ever a charge, is going to have a very difficult time convincing a jury of this: Did Zimmer have no reasonable fear of death or great bodily harm? He was on his back taking a beating and that fact is corroborated by a policeman and an eyewitness. If a jury cannot be convinced that Zimmer had no reasonable fear, then Zimmer walks. The best a prosecutor could hope for in a case like this is a hung jury. Now, if more evidence emerges things could change.
