There's only one side of the story being told by someone who knows what happened. His story has remained the same, even as more evidence has come to light, and fits that evidence pretty good.

Trayvon's side of the story is being told by people who weren't there, and who keep changing their theories to try to prop up their story. That doesn't sound like a very reliable side of the story when it doesn't stand on its own as new facts become known. They remind me of Ptolemaic astronomers. :lol:

He had no damage at all to his hands, and TM had no injuries other than the cut knuckle and the gun shot wound. If it isn't clear to you who assaulted whom then I have no idea what to say. Apparently evidence is meaningless.
That's their story and they're sticking to it. Don't confuse them with the facts.

No. Some people still think the man who got kicked out of school multiple times for drugs and possession of stolen property probably started the fight. Other people still blame the local resident who started it by getting out of his car while it was on a street inside the gated subdivision where he lived.

..and, no one from either camp was within 600 miles of the incident when it happened.

Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.

Eighty-four pages, and you've succinctly summarized the whole thing in three lines! Genius!

(only thing I'd change is, "local resident who started it by committing the deadly sin of getting out of his car...") :mrgreen:

I don't think we will ever know for sure who assaulted who.
You're correct, we don't know. And until someone proves beyond a reasonable doubt that he did break a law, he's innocent. That's the way our system works.

I wonder which "he" Scooter is talking about? Maybe neither one broke any laws? Maybe poor judgement on the behalf of both, resulted in one dead and the other behind bars?

Hmmm, three (3) question marks here.

Oldgringo, I think you have it.......a lot of poor judgement for all concerned.

Somebody threw the first punch. Use of unlawful force. That's breaking the law.
There is only evidence of one person doing that.
