"Funny", perhaps that's because it's absolutely irrelevant?

Nope. Proven history of BO and politicians like him with the ability to open mouth, insert foot. Something about double standard/hypocrisy.

"They always ran to previously" is what GZ said, the "suspects" always left using the back entrance. I'm using GZ's own words/paraphrasing, does that make it sound racist to you? GZ knew what entrance it was, he didn't need to go look, he knew which entrance.

Stupidity is doing the same thing over and over again in the same situation and expecting a different result.

If Martin was not part of the "gang"; is there any reason why he had to follow the same pattern?

Let me clarify. GZ in previous calls to nen stated the "suspects" always left using the back entrance, I never meant to imply he said it in the call to nen in this case. What I meant is there was no reason for him to get out of his truck to see which direction he was going since he could see from his truck in all directions and he knew which entrance the "suspects" had used in the past.

Please explain:
How from his truck could he see the East side of the complex when he was in the middle with 3 sets of buildings, I road and I walkway between the vehicle and the 2 exits (which were a few HUNDRED meters apart in poor visibility conditions.

Both exits were for foot traffic only; a vehicle can not get out?

Spooner's surveillance video provides a clear view of what happened. Spooner emerges from his house and confronts the teen, who is retrieving his family's garbage cart from the street. Spooner points a gun at Darius, who moves back a few steps. Spooner then exchanges words with Darius' mother, who's standing on her porch out of view of the camera, and Spooner briefly points the gun in her direction. Moments later, Spooner points the gun back at the boy standing a couple of feet in front of him. He fires, hitting Darius in the chest.

The teen stumbles and runs away, and Spooner fires a second shot that misses. He appears to attempt a third shot, but the gun jams.

Darius' mother, Patricia Larry, testified that she chased her son to where he collapsed in the street. She cradled him in her arms as he died.

"I pulled his shirt up and I (saw) he had a bullet hole in his chest," she said tearfully. "He took one more breath and that's it."

Spooner paced along the sidewalk until police arrived a few minutes later. Police officer Richard Martinez testified that he was handcuffing Spooner when Spooner acknowledged, "Yeah, I shot him."

Wow, what a loon. The cops should have just shot him on sight instead of cuffing him.

There's no reason for Martin to assault Zimmerman. Following is not a crime, assault is. Get that through your head.

The TM supporters have to find an excuse to justify what TM did.

They can not accept the fact that TM brought this on himself by his pre-planned actions of starting a confrontation to teach the "cracker" a lesson.

He was safe; out of Zimmerman's field of view.
Martin chose the time/place of the confrontation and the scale of it.

The only thing Zimmerman did was end it.
