Jodi does the same thing in court.... I wonder if it is to show that the gun was holstered on his left side which would have been Trayvon's right side...
Interesting...

I have not read every thread on this case, but I'm curious if there has been a discussion about how George could have possibly reached his holstered gun with Trayvon sitting astraddle of him? To me this is a HUGE issue!!! We have tried this numerous times with several people and it just CAN'T BE DONE! It makes GZ's entire story of how he came to shoot Trayvon a LIE. (Before you start throwing things at me, try it yourself.) :truce:
Is GZ ambidextrous? He appears to be left handed when writing notes in the courtroom, but shoots right?
Per UT video.
imo
I will say if I were standing behind Trayvon that day in an otherwise empty convenience store I would have been getting a bit nervous. Baggie jeans and an oversized hoodie with the hood up, taking a long time to pay for his purchase, etc...
Yes, I profile. In the area I used to live in there were numerous robberies and the robbers often wore that attire. Wearing that attire with the HOOD UP inside stores intentionally portrays a certain image just as when I get dressed up in business attire I portray a different image. Clothing isn't random, we all dress in the manner that reflects how we want to be perceived. IMO.
I think the tactic is so that if in the case that they can't the charges thrown out it gives the jury a lesser charge to consider other than murder. So if by chance the jury is thinking Zimmerman should be charged with something, they won't have the opportunity to even consider murder or a compromise. They will have only two choices: manslaughter or acquittal.
I don't think the judge will do it but I think she should. This should probably have been a manslaughter case from the get go.

I hope the judge waits until Monday to weigh in on this decision. imo
Did the defense attorney just say that some of the witnesses said maybe TM moved on his own after the gunshot, maybe he didn't? I don't think any of them said that - in my opinion.
On another note - I know it's standard for defense to request acquittal, and for all attorneys to talk a lot but this is one of the longest run-on sentences ever - in my opinion.
No wonder he needed some sips of water!

The community GZ was dedicated to failed him miserably. The people that sat by cowering should be ashamed. imo.

I am left handed. I can only write with my left hand, but I can do just about everything else with my right hand. I really use my right hand more so than my left. Just stating as a reference to your question. I'd like to know if that makes me ambidextrous or not tbh.
So if someone's straddling you, you can't reach into your waistband/holster? Why not? imo
I think manslaughter is appropriate, but if the judge gives him the max, it could be 30 years. That is way too harsh (yes, I know, not as harsh as death, I got it), and you just know Deb would love to lock him up and throw away the key IMO.
I have actually seen it once. Many years ago, a Disneyland employee, dressed as a character, took their head off backstage. There was a family backstage, whose car had been broken into and they were waiting for, I guess security. The kid saw the headless character and the parents said he was traumatized.
They put on their case, which was ridiculous, and the defense asked it be thrown out. Case was thrown out.
