Do you think Zimmerman will be convicted of murder?

You were trying to show how unsafe it is to own a gun and I proved that isn't the case.

Sorry firearm.

Don't apologize to the handgun, apologize to the gunshot victim.

Mr. Zimmerman has said that he acted in self-defense the night of the shooting. But with no eyewitness who saw the entire encounter, and with Mr. Martin dead, there has been much debate about whether the evidence supported such a claim.

The documents also stated that after a detailed account of the investigation drawn up on March 13, which included witness interviews and re-interviews, Investigator Christopher F. Serino concluded that “there exists probable cause” to charge Mr. Zimmerman with manslaughter.

An autopsy report reviewed by NBC News claimed Martin also had broken skin on his left ring ringer below the knuckle.

The report, prepared by the medical examiner in Volusia County, follows a separate medical examination on Zimmerman which found he had black eyes, a nose fracture and two cuts to the back of his head a day after the fatal shooting on February 26.

A trove of evidence collected for George Zimmerman’s second-degree murder trial was made public Thursday, including the report that shows the lead detective originally wanted to file manslaughter charges because he said the whole encounter could have been avoided with better judgment and a little dialogue.

But the cache of forensic evidence, autopsy reports, documents, audio tapes and police reports also paints a murky portrait of a fight between two people that left a teenager dead, a man facing life in prison, and a community shaken.
Some witnesses contradicted each other and others were flat wrong. Some heard two shots, when only one was fired. Some saw the man with a red shirt — Zimmerman — on top during the fight, and still more were convinced that it was 17-year-old Trayvon Martin who cried for help.

Ultimately, records show the Sanford Police investigator believed Zimmerman was taking a beating from Trayvon and cried for help 14 times in 38 seconds. But witnesses described Zimmerman as nonchalant after the killing, and two people who knew him told police that he was a racist and a bully.

Just a day after the Sanford Police Chief announced that no probable cause existed to make an arrest, the lead detective swore otherwise.
“The encounter between George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin was ultimately avoidable by Zimmerman, if Zimmerman had remained in his vehicle and waited the arrival of law enforcement or conversely if he had identified himself to Martin as a concerned citizen and initiated dialog(sic) in an effort to dispel each party’s concern,” lead investigator Chris Serino swore in March 13 statement. “There is no indication that Trayvon Martin was involved in any criminal activity at the time of the encounter.”

His conclusion: probable cause for manslaughter.

“There is no indication that Trayvon Martin was involved in any criminal activity at the time of the encounter.”

Not as much faith as I have in our justice system.

In this particular case, by a Constitutional amendment.
I thawt I 'd made that clear; not clear enuf, I guess.

So, it wasn't permanent then if it was eliminated.

I thought I made it clear that something can't be permanent if it can be eliminated.

Or perhaps you use definitions the way you use spelling. You change them to fit your mood.

re Hawkeye:
His "keen eye" as you call it, picked out a kid who was not in fact doing anything wrong, and killed him.
And you want to give him a medal for being a "good citizen" for it? That's sick.
