fiat is doing a great job at pointing out the technicalities of florida law..however the defense already established a flaw....
as fiat said, the law says all zimmerman has to prove HE THOUGHT his life was in danger....yet his attorney is trying t o prove that his life WAS in danger.....
and unfortunately for zimmerman the only way for them to prove that zimmerman's life was actually in danger was for him to have been damaged more than he was...
dude didn't even have to go directly to the hospital...they entertained it...but ultimately it was determined he'd be iight....it's not like the shit was life threatening....ya feel me? not life threatening....
so the jury is going to have to believe that trayvon really intended to kill this man......and i don't see anyone buying that...especially considering zimmerman had the gun from the jump...he was fully prepared to shoot if needed be..trayvon just wanted to know why he was being followed..he could have jumped off of zimmerman and ran for all we know...but we don't know cuz zimmerman who was prepared to shoot..shot first......knowing mind you that the police were on their way....because he called them
You're over-thinking it bruh.
You don't wait for the nigga to mortally injure you to do what you can to stop him, you try to stop him before it gets that far.
That's the concept this law is based on.
there was no indication that it was ever going to get that far is what i'm attempting to prove...
dude jumped the gun literally because he walked in there prepared to shoot at the first sign of trouble
The bolded is subjective, and the underlined is conjecture.
If Zimmerman reasonably felt that things could go that far, that would justify the use of force under the law.
For him, the indication could be as simple as, "If I'm getting my ass beat, with no end in sight.".
