11 years ago today, Trayvon Martin was killed. Justified killing?

If George Zimmerman was guilty with murder, it would've set the precedent you couldn't defend yourself against a jogger if he attacked you

I mean even now, you'd be cancelled and harrassed and lose your job, etc. But at least you wouldn't rot in a jail cell as long as your in a red area.

Trayvon, played by Jaden Smith, is shown at school, raising his hand in lit class. The wise Hispanic teacher, played by Antonio Banderas, calls on him. Trayvon stand up and recites lines of Shakespeare in a hip, cool, but moving rap. As he sits down Banderas smiles and nods at him with a wise, knowing approval.

Trayvon is seen hanging out after school on the lush greens of the front school yard with his friends, featuring the girl who played Precious, plus a mix of races: a white blonde girl, a Hispanic kid, an Urkel-looking black nerd, a white kid with his hat on backwards. A veritable Burger King Kids Club.

Cut to a dark apartment, where Zimmerman, played by Luis Guzman, is doing pull-ups, with the words FEAR and HATE inked on his knuckles. He then practices shooting his empty gun at himself in a mirror. "You talking to me?" Guzman says. "You in MY neighborhood?" He then sits down to watch Birth of a Nation.

Cut to Trayvon at home, at the dinner table with his parents, played by Jamie Foxx and Maya Angelou. They discuss Tray's future plans of being an airline pilot. "It's a mighty big responsibility," Jamie Foxx says. "Having all those souls onboard." "I know," Jaden/Tray says. "I want to be like Sully some day though."

After dinner his little brother asks him if he can go get some candy and tea. Even though it's raining out, Tray agrees. In slow-mo he zips up his hoody, pulled from the dryer.

Cut to Zimmerman patrolling the streets as rain pours on his uncovered head. He does tuck-and-rolls across neighbors' lawns, pulling out his gun and pointing it at dark shadows. A cat crosses his path and he fires at it. He chuckles mercilessly.

"Keep the change," Tray says with a smile to the woman working at the convenience store. With the snacks for his brother he walks out of the store, not before passing by a magazine with Sully on the cover. Tray smiles.

Cut to Trayvon skipping down the sidewalk. A group of multicultural young males is there smoking pot. "You wanna get high?" one asks. "No," Trayvon answers, "then I'll never be able to be a pilot." He continues to skip down the path and eventually enters the condo complex.

As Trayvon turns a corner, a sweaty and enraged Zimmerman emerges from the shadows. "Where do you think you're going, NI**ER?"

Trayvon stumbles on his words and tries to answer but is silenced when Zim cold cocks himself with the gun and starts beating himself on the back of his own head. "Help! Help! Somebody help me!" Zimmerman screams.

"Please sir, I just want to return home to my brother and finish my homework," Trayvon pleads.

"That's too bad," Zimmerman says. He then empties his entire gun cartridge into the baby-faced teen. "It looks like your dog ate it."

Never forget. That was the story that redpilled me. Media desperately trying to sway the public, his parents scrambling to have his knuckle-dragging thug lifestyle erased from the internet via deleting all his social media accounts asap, his own dad told cops his son started the fight, then backpedaled and changed his story after meeting with Benjamin Crump (new Al Sharpton), dinger neighbors lying to investigators saying Zimmerman chased Trayvon and shot him in the back despite autopsy showing otherwise.

He had to pay a million dollars in lawyer fees when common sense should have prevailed. Then like a month after the trial he saved people from a burning car. He has been giving out autographs on packs of Skittles these day.
Lol what a champion.

If George Z called the cops and didn't play Barney Fife ...."cop wannabe", then some scared people would not be so trigger happy.

He was on his back in the street with Martin on top of him smashing his head into the concrete when he shot.

If thats not an appropriate time to shoot someone, when is?

LOL, had already forgotten. I hear more about the civil war being brought up as a topic of conversation or reference than I do about an 11 year old case of a kid who got killed by the police. But then again, I have different social circles.

He did call the cops. He was on the neighborhood watch, so that was his job, to observe and report. Trayvon confronted him and started bashing his head on the sidewalk. George shot him.

Possibly when you're not stalking an innocent person because of his race. He got into a confrontation because Trayvon saw some creepy dude stalking him for no reason.

Police told him to back down. He chased Trayvon down instead, got into an altercation with him and shot/killed him. Kind of cut and dry imo. I'm a 2A, right to defend etc kind of guy. But you can't chase someone down and blow them away at will. Same thing with the Amad Aburey case. It doesn't matter what he was doing unless he is a direct threat to you or someone else. You can't chase someone down and shoot them because you feel like it

so when you see a member of the neighborhood watch, the appropriate reaction is to attack them and start beating their head into the concrete?

He waits for the cops after he calls 911.......... for a "scary tea and skittles" purchaser on foot.
If that is not an appropriate time to call (sugar promotes gum disease and cavities) then when is it?

Lol nope. Zimmerman had a few black neighbors. As a matter of fact a Reuters report interviewed a black woman who was his neighbor who attested they had a spat of break-ins in the neighborhood at the time all done by young black men.

Also in the 911 call he said Trayvon was running in-between houses and kept looking around like he was scoping the neighborhood out.

You clearly didn't bother studying up on the case my bro. Guaranteed whatever you reply to this post with has already been debunked 11 years ago

No he didn't. 911 dispatch told him to stop chasing the guy, Zimmerman says "Okay" then there is no proof he continues chasing; he likely stopped and went back. Trayvon followed him back and confronted him. He didn't "chase him down and shoot him" Trayvon had zero injuries besides the gunshot that killed him. Zimmerman had a broken nose and splits in the back of his head from being smashed against the concrete. Zimmerman was heard screaming for help, not Trayvon.

There is no proof he continued chasing. Either way Zimmerman was a fat guy, Trayvon was athletic and young. How the fuk did a fat Mexican outrun a black teenager? Lol besides if someone is chasing you and you fear for your life you don't turn around and confront them. Based off the injuries Trayvon obviously started the physical conflict.

I remember first hearing about this case and thinking Zimmerman was guilty as sin based of what the media was reporting.

Then I watched nearly the entire trial and it was beyond obvious that Zimmerman was not guilty.

That whole ordeal kicked off clown world.

Did you? Can only people who were there and personally analyzed the crime scene comment on it?

If so, then you have no more business talking about it than he does.

It's weird, you seemed to have dodged the question about why you consider it "overzealous" and "eager to shoot" when you shoot someone smashing your head into the pavement repeatedly. Must've been an oversight on your part.

So once again:

By the sounds of it Zimmerman acted in self defence. Had he not he would have been put into a coma or killed as Trayvon beat him about the head. As was expected though, a fantasy version of the event was peddled which took any fault off poor teenage Trayvon.

A jury reviewed the evidence and decided it was justified. Its stupid to debate or talk about it any longer.
