Is this really how we ought to be doing public relations?
- hga 13y agoMaybe not, but I decided to do a "Just the facts, Ma'am" posting ... and since so many are using the Martin case to attack the very idea of self-defense---and don't say that's silly, for the U.K. effectively outlawed it in the courts in the '50s, by statute in the following decade or two---I don't think it hurts to repeat the well established fact that he was the aggressor using lethal force on Zimmerman when the latter was forced to shoot him. If you want to dive into that case, it's also telling he only shot Martin once (because Martin immediately ceased trying to kill him). That doesn't really jibe with the bogus narrative.
