How long does it take to walk 1/2 of a mile. 40 minutes for a fit young man like Trayvon Martin. There is about 2000 steps in a mile for the average person. That means he took 1000 steps in 40 minutes, more or less. Take a step, count down two seconds, take another step. Walk to your mailbox doing this. If someone walked across my front yard this slowly then I would consider them to be acting suspicious. This isn't the speed of someone who is going somewhere, it is the speed of someone who is doing something else. The steps and everything might not be exact and probably lean on the conservative side since he was tall and his strides were likely more than average. People on crutches taking their time walk faster than that. Zimmerman's accounts and actions do not change this very important fact.your a rascist becuase you see a black teen in a hoodie as evidence to your presumptions of his intentions .
.and you even said up top he went to go home down the T
, but you still refuse to admit that the frame of setting that makes Zimmerman up to no good is all based on his external appearance , . . . ..and your opinoin along iwth another bigot with a history of bigotry toward others
and since there is much more evidence to support he was on his way home in rainy weather in a a hoodie with two items he purchased at 7-11 . .
you refuse to acknowledged even the smallest amount of real facts for hearsay and conjecture all originally made up or claimed by teh shooter of a unarmed 17 year old kid, within his rights to walk home in the rain
your bias is obvious, UB is a bleeding heart lib so he has to take the victims side no matter what, and it is so obvious to every logical person here that Zimmerman hunted Z down and then confronted him . . . . and imho as M was Standing his ground was killed for it . . the constant reworking of the events by Z and his lawyers, multiple lawyers .. it is so obvious that its laughable to even assume otherwise . . kinda like OJ . . . now will he get off . . . that is the big question . . can he prove he had a constitutional right to kill that boy . . .. i doubt it
you cant cry wolf after you have made so many of teh same mistakes over and over and over . . . .in America we dont reward stupidity . . . . acquitted or guilty, Z will be a American loser the rest of his life
If he were white, yellow, brown, or black it would be the same. Suspicious. The honest truth is that calling people racist is easier than producing a counter argument. The fact is that Zimmerman did nothing illegal at least until the point of the encounter and that the encounter was wanted by Martin or he would of continued home.
