I don't see how that photo proves he isn't a kid. He's 17. He's really a teenager and not a child. Why did George Zimmerman decide to have a confrontation with Martin? It's pretty obvious that Zimmerman started the whole thing. A teenager going to a store and buying stuff with cash isn't going to be doing something malicious like robbing houses or vandalizing property particularly if the teenager has shit in his hands. The real reason why he was targeted is the same reason why you claim that photo proves he's not a "kid." It's because of stereotypes. A black teenager wearing a grill is no longer a kid? Why?

I do have to say that him having a watermelon drink on him is pretty unfortunate. Watermelon does taste good though.

Given the widespread and overzealous media attention this case is getting, especially from those who are accentuating this case as a hate crime-irrespective of whether or not it qualifies as one-I think his fate is already sealed. Why would a jury find him not guilty knowing full and well the backlash that such a verdict would incite with the public, especially those who will see this as a hate crime in their own minds or from those who will exploit the situation for the sake of popularity, not principle. Personally, I have no idea whether or not Zimmerman had malicious intent and I would rather avoid pretending like I can say so with absolute conviction one way or the other. But I don't see this ending well for him no matter how solid his defense is.

In other countries, these type of photos are seen all the time, and honestly, these are hardly graphic. I think there should be a warning before they show the photos, but the photos should be shown if it's relevant news. These two photos were the ones they didn't show on TV. I'm pretty sure HLN & CNN are owned by the same company.

I agree our news is too censored in the US.

I honestly believe some people are ignorant to the damage a real gun can do to another person.

I love the programs in Los Angeles and Monmouth County, NJ, where they take young drunken/drugged drivers to morgues, too.

LA has had theirs for several years now!

Some people need a dose of reality!

How many of you see a young black kid alone walking home from a convenience store and follow him with your car?

And while doing so, you call the police and say you know he's up to something, "because you know how those people are?"

Zimmerman, as an adult, should have gone home. End of story!

I haven't heard of Zimmerman stating he ever saw a weapon.

Where is the gunshot wound? I don't see any blood.

Not the same little kid we saw pictures of.

Supposedly, medics tried to revive him. I see one glove by his left hand.

Entry wound is 2nd from top...... The entry wound is always a lot smaller, usually about the size of the bullet.

17 is a kid..... A big kid, but still a fucking kid.... Not old enough to drink or vote or die for his country even.

I want to see pictures the of Trayvon on the stainless steel table carved open like a Thanksgiving turkey.

Trevon was nothing more than a wannabe gangsta thug.
His current path was destiny.
I wish he had the chance to turn his life around, but sometimes we get lucky and get that 2nd chance.
You've been watching to much of CNN & HLN.
Zimmerman according to CNN and HLN is already a convicted felon.
Its a shame to see that they show images from two to three years ago of Trevon when he was much younger.
They tried to say Zimmerman was 25-lbs. + heavier than Tre, but really they both weight the same at 185-lbs. give or take., but Tre was taller. Advantage Trey as being stronger and a more experienced fighter.
Fuk CNN & HLN!!!
They are nothing more than worthless raciest propaganda and shity lies. That Bitch, Nancy Grace is nothing more than beget, who acts as though she cares about African Americans. All she cares about is her fuk'n ratings.
BTW, U do know that there are many 17-yr olds who have been tried as adults and are in prison for murder.
Many fools like to think that 17 is still a child, but Ive seen many 15+ punks commit brutal crimes that dont surprise me anymore.
Sadly, our teens in America are no longer the innocent little child we parents all think they are. Wake up America!!! Do you know where your kids are or who they are sleeping with and/or gang banging with. The baby boomer parents are lazy as a shit and allow their teenagers to rule them.

From the very beginning I always thought Zimmerman was guilty but when you do your own research and not let the bias, government funded new sway your opinion you will find that Trayvon was a little hoodrat, not a sweet innocent kid like the media portrays. He had been suspended from school 3 times in the 2012 school year (only three months into that year), his text messages showed he loved fighting, he was living with his dad because his mom couldn't handle him, he was found to have women's jewelry and a lock picking device in his possession.
Trayvon was a thug.
I do not believe Zimmerman followed Trayvon with the intention of hurting or killing him but rather to give the police an idea of which way he was heading. It was Trayvon who attacked Zimmerman and broke his nose and smashed his head into the ground. According to Zimmerman's claim (which a lie detector test showed he was being honest about) Trayvon threatened to kill Zimmerman while he was beating him. Add to the fact that Trayvon's "girlfriend" (that uneducated gorilla that was in the courtroom testifying today) said Martin referred to Zimmerman as a "creepy ass cracker" would that not make Trayvon's attack on Zimmerman a hate crime? Defense or not, trayvon used a racial slur and then attacked George Zimmerman.

Do your own research people; not on CNN or FOX or NBC. Do your own independent research and you will find that things are way different than the way national news has been depicting them to be. And this is a guy who has long been thinking that George Zimmerman was guilty of murder.
