yeah credibility is an issue isn't it?What you said is NOT inconsistent ...
In an interview with Fox's Sean Hannity played yesterday for jurors, Zimmerman stated he had no knowledge of Florida's "Stand Your Ground" law.
Prosecutors called one of Zimmerman's professors, who described the defendant of one of his best students, to the stand.
During cross examination, the defense explored what was taught about self-defense laws

"no knowledge of Florida's "Stand Your Ground" law"
does NOT = "self-defense laws"!
One may call things a "trendy" title, but they are not taught as such or identified as such.
Example .. many threads ago ... Speedo referenced a "Stand Your Ground" law in Texas.
I questioned him about that ... by the title. I was not familiar with Texas law by that title.
Does that mean I don't know anything about self-defense? Does that mean I am lying?
No. No.
But when there is nothing there ... folks tend to grab at straws.
Because essentially the statute (amendment) to which Speedo referred was not "new" law, but was the same as case law interpretations from the past regarding "self-defense" .. of which I was familiar.
And I wrote that to him in a reply.
One can accuse of lying all they want, ....
.... but the physical evidence generally supports Zimmerman's statements given the circumstances. What the physical evidence may not support is what someone said he said, who want's him convicted. Originally Posted by LexusLover

Based on your track record, how are we to believe that you could possibly interpret the interview correctly ? Originally Posted by Whirlaway

Martin was a wannabe gangsta. On the night he decided he wanted some Skittles he Should have stayed in the apartment and out of the rain and get some the next day.
How many times after a session have you thought: Should have stayed at home and kept my money.
Shoulda, woulda, coulda.
He called the cops. They ONLY responded to a report of a fight and shots fired.
That's why neighborhoods, subdivisions, malls, shopping centers, department stores, and businesses have "private" security ... some armed, some not. Just like the airports. Many didn't qualify as police officers, many are former police officers, and many are waiting to get qualified as police officers or jail or prison guards. Many are former military police as well.
They serve a function particularly during a time when city's and counties are strapped for cash. .. and the businesses benefitting from the extra security can pay for it.
They are hired to WATCH little turds like Martin who think they are bad asses and should not be followed, identified, and/or otherwise questioned about their activities and behavior.
Malls are full of them. They hang out there to "play."
We have had thread after thread of postings by people CLAIMING to have a CHL ... and boasting how they would shoot someone if they saw them doing this or that ... Zimmerman had a CHL.
What's the difference? Originally Posted by LexusLover

Hannity asked if Martin was running away from him because he didn't know who he was.CBJ7, neither you nor the prosecutor has produced an eye-witness to testify that Zimmerman's wounds were self inflicted!?!
"He wasn't running out of fear," said Zimmerman.
Hannity asked, "You can tell the difference?"
"He wasn't running," said Zimmerman.
Hannity makes the point that Zimmerman told the police dispatcher that he thought the teenager was running.
clearly Zim was recorded telling the 911 dispatcher the kid was running, Hannity even busted him ..
just one of the miscalculations ... having to remember your story over a period of time must be difficult. Originally Posted by CJ7
