Once again Bob I see you parroting what someone else has posted. ..............
AND NOW FOR THE REST OF THE STORY.......
The neighborhood watch that Zimmerman was self appointed captain of....(are you ready for this?) ...WAS NOT A REGISTERED NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH and therefore your post becomes utter BS as the rule you are referring to is the National Sheriffs Assoc. guidelines and Zimmermans neighborhood watch was (one more time) NOT REGISTERED WITH ANY AUTHORITY AS A NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH. The police did give him some guidelines but that was it.
Since Zimmerman broke the law concerning neighborhood watch by carrying a gun and he was the Capitan of it. Should the neighborhood watch should be held lible and pay civil penalities for the death of Trayvon?

In my personal opinion, I am inclined to hold individuals responsible for their own actions.
He first followed him with his car, then on foot, then disregarded police instructions to cease and because of all that is the principle that caused the death of an innocent person through him (Zimmerman) starting a chain of actions that ended in the killing of a human being. That is manslaughter and a a hate crime.
Try the son of a bitch, the whole country is waiting for this creep to be arrested. Nobody is saying he is automatically guilty or should be lynched, but sure as hell he needs to be put on trial and let a jury decide what he done.
Also, witnesses reported seeing Trayvon on top of him at one point.

These people only parrot what they read in the media.
I just sent this to our gullible (and argumentative) friend Gloria.

Here is the official so called violent background on George Zimmerman.
Seven years ago in 2005 when Zimmerman was 20 years old and was having drinks with a friend that was also underage. The Police were questioning them, Zimmerman shoved the Officer, and was charged, which is procedure. The charges were reduced and all that Zimmerman had to do was go through a two day “alcohol education program”.
Also in 2005, Zimmerman's x-fiancée and he broke up, and they both filed restraining orders against each other.
But here is the one that will surely place Zimmerman on Law Enforcement's 10 most wanted list..
In December of 2006, he received a speeding ticket, but due to the fact that the Officer did not show up to Court, the case was dismissed.
These are official reports, and you may get copies of them from the State of Florida under the Freedom of information act.
In Michigan, when the shall issue concealed pistol law was first approved, you could have been denied for having been ticketed for one less floatation device in your boat for the amount of passengers you had. They changed that, and numerous other minor offenses, but some things were downright silly.
Since Florida and Michigan have a reciprocity agreement, I knew the Florida laws had to be similar to mine here in Michigan. It's obvious she doesn't know the laws.
Some people don't know the difference between a charge and a conviction, our friend is one of them.

Let me guess, you're another gun happy cop or sherriff or something.

Zimmerman was so obviously reckless he hunted down another human like a wild animal without cause and ended up killing him in cold blood. That sir, is a crime. Self defense does NOT apply if as a result of Zimmerman's beyond belief grossly stupid actions the victim (Martin) puts up a defense, which the irony of this case is, he had every legal right to do.
He (Martin) is the victim, not Zimmerman no matter how you gun nuts try to stick together. If Martin would have shot Zimmerman, Martin would have had a open and shut self-defense case since it was Martin being chased by a much larger and ARMED person and accordingly had reason to fear him and respond to defend his life, not the other way around. Stop thinking like a putz.
This is why I say GUN NUT and yes clearly that is what Zimmerman is.Are you too?
Zimmerman is guilty as hell of pretending to have police powers the Constitution does not give him! I do not want a bunch of psychos armed with guns running around playing Rambo. THAT is what Zimmerman did and now he must face the concquiences of acting like a fool resulting in the talking of a human life.
There is no justification for what Zimmerman did. He had no business following Martin. THAT starts the chain of events and any dummy that thinks you can cop-out with a self-defense plea doesn't have a clue how the legal system works.
