Defense: Martin was out late to buy weed. Zimmerman questioned him, Martin pushed him/fight ensued. Just cause? - Barack Obama - 10-12-2012 08:08 AM
Any twitter info is full of half or no truths. However there are some trends that Martin was out to buy drugs. Zimmerman did follow him. He also stopped to ask him what he was doing out late. It was none of his (Zimmerman) business but, Martin may have started pushing him out of his way first. A physical fight between a scrawny teen did not need a shooting to take place out of defense by most logic. BUT if it was Martin that started the altercation, even with Zimmerman following him, there could be just cause legally for the shooting.
Thoughts?

The Zimmerdude pursued the dead boy.
Self defense out the window.

You should become a fiction writer with that imagination you got.

What facts do you have that prove Martin was purchasing marijuana?
It's more likely he was trying to find homes to clean out. He was in a neighborhood he didn't live in, at 3am.
Zimmerman was neighborhood watch and had every right to tell Martin to hit the road.
Martin attacked Zimmerman and Zimmerman fired his weapon. He acted in self-defense.

so zimmerman is a punk who has to shoot a 17 year old so he doesn't kick his ass?

Zimmerman pursued him. And even if they did start fighting, how can a 140 lb kid take on a 250lb man?

Zimmerman was hasteling the kid, and got beat up for his trouble. And the chicken-s**t Hispanic pulled a gun and shot the kid in an extremely unmanly act.
This puke had no clue as to how to "take it like a man". How typically Latino of him. I've faced down dozens of Hispanics that "got scared" and tried to do somethng like this.
Zimmerman is a murderer and needs prison badly!

No. He outweighed him by 50 lbs.
I think - at best - it was an itchy trigger finger and the fool should be locked up for 10-20 years.
EDIT: 90 lbs*

Fact: Martin was going to his dad's house. No drugs were involved.
Fact: Martin was unarmed and only had skittles and a packet of Lipton iced tea in his pocket.
Fact: Zimmerman has an arrest record which includes resisting arrest, assault & battery.
Fact: Police have so far refused to arrest Zimmerman, saying Zimmerman has a squeaky clean record when, in fact, Zimmerman has an arrest record a mile long and people around the neighborhood have complained about his erratic behavior before in the past.
Fact: Zimmerman appointed himself as head of the neighborhood watch when the neighborhood never appointed him head of the neighborhood watch.
Fact: During the 9-1-1 call Zimmerman specifically mentioned Martin's race. Would he have mentioned Martin's race if Trayvon was white, Asian or even Hispanic? No. The police also told Zimmerman during the call not to pursue Martin and they will take it from there. Zimmerman did not listen and went ahead and followed the teen
Fact: Trayvon Martin weighs only 140 lbs and is 17 years old. He doesn't pose a threat to anybody.
