no one can say for certain on the gun in the hand, but he was armed/had a firearm on his person. We will have to wait and see how the facts and trial pans out.

I believe if you read the police report it is indicated that Zimmerman had a belt holster for his weapon...
Anyways I don't want this to get out of control (because I luv u guyz)!:thumbup:
I think we should all just watch and see what happens without making up our minds. I try to keep as open of a mind as possible, both sides are making some pretty wild accusations and its increasingly hard to find good solid facts and no opinions.

agreed. Yes, he was armed/on the belt holster/"on his person".
just read the important, the most glaring things are the blood and wet back for zimmerman, and then that Martin was laying down face first. interesting on both aspects!

just saw this, that definitely helps his case.
I don't have a specific side in the case but I wanted point out there is a HUGE difference between the "we don't need you to do that" that was said and a clear "stop following him". Think of a time you've told someone "you don't need to do" something, the only things that come to mind is my wife trying take out the garbage, or friends helping clean up after having people over, it usually said to someone who thinks they are doing the right thing and helping. If someone is doing something wrong, like keying my car, or stealing something I wouldn't say "you don't need to do that" I would say "stop!" the police ARE the authority and when they had the chance they never gave him the "stop" command that a person with authority could/should have.
If an authority figure gave him a "stop" command he either would have stopped and te killing would have been avoided, or he would have gone against a dirrect police order which would have made this alot more cut and dry.

points taken, but this is a different context and situation then someone politely saying, "oh George, you don't need to do that!" with a smile, etc.
It is a different situation, thats my point and the reason why politely telling him "we don't need you to do that" is not good enough.
It doesn't matter what the situation is telling someone you don't need to do that always has a positive connotation to it, like they are helping you out.

The fact is, the dispatcher did not give Zimmerman an order. Furthermore, dispatchers are not law enforcement officers anyway. Another fact is, for everyone yelling and screaming about this case since February, NONE of them know the facts yet. Everyone commenting believes what they do because they want to.
