Seeing the horrible picture of Trayvon lying dead in the grass.....

paints a totally different picture of what has been described in the press and by Zimmerman's Lawyers.

First off: He looks like a skinny teenage kid.

Second: He looks like a well dressed skinny teenage kid.

In no way---and I mean in no way does he look menacing or like a gangster thug.

Zimmerman thought this well dressed skinny teenager was a "suspect"? Seriously?

Zimmerman classified this well dressed skinny kid as a "fucking punk"? Seriously?

Put Trayvon's new white sneakers, his tan hipster skinny jeans, and his like new Hoodie sweater on a Skinny white kid---- do you think for one fucking moment that Zimmerman would get out of his car, call 911, and follow the skinny white kid?

Not one fucking chance.

I have a son that age. I can't imagine how painful it would be to have my son hunted and killed like that.

I am horribly angry that there's even a chance of GZ going free.

Why the hell did Zimmerman think he was a punk? He's black...that's why.

His clothes are clean and neat...doesn't look like he'd been in a fight. Zimmerman is a LIAR and a cold blooded murder.

Did the jury get to see this picture?

They want us to live in their fantasy world and to not bring any pictures (of reality) into this, that have not been sanitized by the M$M. It is a picture of a child that died in horrible pain. Something their cowardly little brains cannot short circuit with wood grain alcohol.

about the hipster clothes and the way he looked brings it even closer to home.

Did you see the picture during the Prosecution's closing arguments today? I thought he might have been showing it based on what he had said and that the camera went to Trayvon's parents after but during they kept the camera on Guy and the Judge. I was watching WESH's live stream and if they decided to not show that picture, I'm pretty thankful.

for his 12- year old little brother who wanted to watch the nba all star game.

Put his record against Zim's and see who is the thug.

13. If Zimmerman could think a 4 foot, 7 year old was suspicious?

Personally, I think the man could have had mental health issues. There is a rumor that he was taking some kind of meds. Everyone he met was a potential criminal, especially of a certain race. Paranoid Schizophrenic?

He should NEVER have owned a gun.

14. No grass stains on the knees of those light-colored pants. Telling, isn't that?

How the hell did he not have grass stains and mud on the knees, if things happened the way GZ said???

I was sure before that Z was a sick lying scumbag, but this clinches it.
