Mock

He is so full of shit. I saw one thing on the news this morning where he said he was not in pursuit of Trayvon. Well, if he was not in pursit how did he come to be in a position to fight him and shoot him? The 911 operator told him to let the police take care of it. If he had done that, we wouldn't be talking about it now.

He apologized again to Trayvon's parents.

"I would tell them that again I'm sorry. I don't have, my wife and I don't have any children. … I am sorry that they buried their child. I can't imagine what it must feel like, and I pray for them daily," he said.

Isn't he not suppose to communicate to/with Trayvon's parents directly or indirectly? Wouldn't this be breaking that? I know it's not maliciousness in nature but making statements like in "god's plan" isn't necessarily innocent statement and i could see how some would say it could be provoking emotion from Trayvon's parents. I don't think he should have done the interview in the first place and if he was going to do the interview then he shouldn't be sending messages to them via an interview.

Ramsey, this has been talked about over and over.

There had been crime occurring in that community. In one case, a woman had been home as two men tried to break in to her home.

Trayvon fit the 'profile' of a potential criminal. Zimmerman wanted to make sure he didn't get away.

Whether or not he initiated the confrontation, we may never know.

With that knowledge I understand him trying to at least keep an eye on him.

My point MS was that he said in his interview that he did NOT pursue Trayvon when in fact he did. I understand the crime in the neighborhood and all that. So yes, call the police and then let them do their jobs. Or. If he just had to keep an eye on Trayvon, why not say hey, I am keeping an eye on things. Do you live around here? Or something like that. then Maybe T would have said "I'm going home from the store." If he had been a thug, it might have deterred him from hanging out in the neighborhood that night. It appears that he was pursuing Trayvon and due to G's pursuit and attitude a fight ensued. At this point we don't really know the truth as to who started it.

Or identifying himself as neighborhood watch. Dumbass (for a change, that was directed at Z, not you Rams).

Well thank you User.

What kind of retard, other than Jerry Sandusky does an interview before they go on trial. Can't certain things they say be used against them at the trial?
Why the hell wouldn't his lawyer advise him to NOT do an interview.

Barbara Walters Rejects Zimmerman's Interview Demands

According to Walters, Zimmerman said that the plans had changed, and he was refusing to do the interview unless ABC granted him one request. Walters refused to confirm that he had requested a month-long stay in a hotel. "It was a condition that, being a member of ABC News, I was unable to grant," she said.

Walters described Zimmerman as "desperate for money" and "very worried about his family." She also said he was "polite, soft-spoken, stubborn." She said that his lawyers "wanted him to do the interview."

It's just wrong for the Zimmermans, any of them, to seek donations from the public imo. Just really rubs me the wrong way.
