smh.  sad. sad  as hell but too say this if the poilce say too stay home n you dont then you want too kill…………………… what about that             NOW  WHAT.

Ok, the headline that says he “Lied” is messed up. (And also I had no idea what it was referring to until I read the comments and someone said this is supposed to refer to the injuries he claimed he sustained…could you freaking have some STORY to this, not just a headline and a video? The “story” is NOT obvious.) This video isn’t evidence that he lied. It’s horrible quality, so it’s more than possible there are injuries that we can’t see. And even if it were better quality, it’s also possible that his injuries, if there, just aren’t visible on a camera that’s so far away. You CAN have a broken nose and no blood. You CAN have a broken nose with blood but the blood is going down the back of your nose into your throat instead of it streaming down your face. You CAN have bruises and swelling that are still in the process of developing at the stage he was at when this was filmed. It’s POSSIBLE. I don’t KNOW if he had those things any more than anyone else does, but the video above and his story are not inconsistent. 

The video isn’t evidence he’s telling the truth either. There are quite a few holes in this guy’s story, and of course there’s the unavoidable fact that the unarmed teenager he was specifically told NOT to pursue is dead, and he, the guy with the gun, is not dead. But the real story here is that this man SHOULD be going to trial and facing the justice system. There is absolutely no reason why a case of someone shooting and killing someone else, ANYONE else, shouldn’t go to court…at least START the process. If you can’t get past the grand jury, then you can’t. If you go through the trial and he is found not guilty by a jury of his peers, then that’s the verdict. The real source of the outrage is the complete (so far) lack of accountability Zimmerman has been held to, the failure to hold him responsible. Even in the (imo) unlikely case that it turns out it was just a series of unfortunate events and misunderstandings…those events and misunderstandings left an unarmed teenager DEAD. He should be wrung through the wringer for that, accident or no. You can’t undo dead. As a society we need to make d@mn sure that such accidents don’t happen. Ever.

And that’s doubly true if this WASN’T an accident — which is where my read of the evidence points — and quadruply true if this is a result of racism.
