Would someone who is following the trial more closely than i tell me

whether the timeline has been examined - who was doing what, where and when? I would think if Zimmerman parked his truck and went after Martin, it's case closed!

throughout the trial. You might be able to find it at their website. It's actually pretty interesting, but I'm afraid if I tried to lay it out I would be wrong so it might be best to go there.

It is blogged by lawyers, using the premise the Zimmerman is innocent until proven guilty. In fact, the same process that will be used, I hope, in the trial.

The short take is that Zimmerman wasn't profiling Martin, as Martin's lawyers have just said. Getting out of his vehicle is not a crime. The question is really can the Prosecution prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the there is no way the Martin could have instigated the fight, triggering self-defense defense.

Sig line rather than pushing that site with most every post as some may get the feeling you are here to basically send traffic there.

is still ambiguous because GZ's claim is that he did that to go find a street address to report to the police so they could find him. Personally, I don't believe that was what he was doing. I think he was looking for TM. But his story is that was why he got out of the truck.

If this vigilante numbnut had simply gone home after reporting the "suspicious black juvenile", Trayvon would be alive today.
But when your 9mm makes your dick bigger than your brain, someone will pay for that tiny ego.
Trayvon paid with his life.
