The one person who will NEVER be blamed, at least in some circles, it Trayvon. Of course, in some circles, there is no consideration given to the possibility that Trayvon initiated the confrontation and was in the process of beating Zimmerman to death whenever he was shot.
And to those who I refer to as "in some circles", have you never considered that in this instance you may be wrong?
I'm not trying to pick a fight, but in my estimation you have rushed to judgment without knowing all of the facts.
And I don't either, but I'm doing my level best to let due process take it's course and not advance an agenda at the same time.
If anyone still thinks that I'm pissing gasoline on their campfire, I guess there is nothing else that I can say to convince them differently.

Chas with all respect (and I honestly mean it) we already know Treyvon did not start the confrontation.
The insistence of overlooking the facts to vindicate the almighty gun is extremely frustrating.
If you think for a minute that you have not done what you accuse others of doing you are way wrong.
Even if Trevor was beating Zimmerman to death it was Zimmerman who caused Trevor to use force to stand his own ground.
Trevor did not violate Zimmerman, it was Zimmerman who stalked Trevor.
There is so much wrong with this that it just amazes me when people post as you just did.
If I start carrying a gun it is then OK for me to pick a fight and when you fight back kill you?
This is an insane opinion.
Sorry I do respect you and your opinions but you defending the gun and Zimmerman by extension over the life of a young kid with candy. This si just as wrong as wrong can be.
Tell you what, can you make a case for me to understand your position? I am walking home from the candy store, you start following me and chasing me until I feel uncomfortable and decide to confront you (which I likely would) You have a gun and I don't.
What is it I can possibly do to make it OK for you to now shoot me?????????
Let me put it another way. Had Trevor beaten Zimmerman to death (and he was not a black kid) he would have told the police that he was stalked by a man with a gun and was able to save himself and he would have been a cult hero.
In fact if he were a white man and Zimmerman black kid you would be thrilled that he had beaten the aggressor to death.
I just can't believe good regular folk can make a case that even if Trevor was able to turn the tide temporarily on Zimmerman and was beating him that it was OK for Zimmerman to kill him.
Had he shot Trevor in the arm and Trevor lived (and he was a fat white guy) Zimmerman would be in jail. But because he murdered him he is free?????????
That is what happened here.

I find this another amazing study on human psychology.
