(356 posts)I'll just throw this out here: Zim knew the law, he knew when he killed Martin that he HAD to make it look like self defense. When I went to obtain my carry permit (Florida) we were drilled on the laws and was tested on the knowledge of said laws. Zim knew FL law prior to being issued his permit. Anyone can lay back and throw their head back to the sidewalk to cause injury and he could have very easily hit himself in his face to cause injury. I feel he was scared enough to do these injuries himself. It is much better to cause injury to yourself when in fear of being arrested for murder.
Since Martin had no Zim DNA on him, it's, IMHO, more then likely Zim was never in danger of Martin.
Since when is the prior record of the victim but not the criminal used in court? Zim seemed to have had a problem with domestic violence in the past. This guy should not have been allowed to carry his weapon do to his history. I feel that since his father is a retired magistrate judge (Virginia) he was treated differently. Friends in high places? Absolutely.
This whole case stinks it's a circus which seems to be all too common in Flar-dee-DUH! The good old boy state of the south. Well, here's hoping it all comes back to bite them (Zim as well as all who participated in the lack of justice when Martin was murdered) in their lilly white aZZs!.
