The police report and the injuries to the back of his head. Among other things. Leave the MSM alone and research for yourself.

Need to ensure that self defense with a weapon stays legal.
And what made you conclude that Zimmerman acted in self defense?
What was it that made me think he was defending himself? Here is one example

I believe that replacing God with government is the cause of our social and moral degradation. When humans are just jumped up apes(referring to darwinism here), their lives don't have as much value as they did when they were considered beings created in the image of God. When it is ok to force others to surrender the fruit of their labors so that you don't have to labor the whole fabric of society is damaged. When relativism and situational ethics replace absolute morality, immoral actions have no "real" consequences, so why not kill, rape, steal, burn, destroy? If life has no greater meaning than "me right now", what other outcome do you expect?
I identify my self as the emperor of the Americas. Doesn't make it true, does it? Many people who identify themselves as "Christians" are not actually such. "By their fruit ye shall know them", I submit that the "fruit" of many of these so called Christians is putrid in God's nostrils. Going to church no more makes you a "Christian" than being in a garage makes you a car.

83% of Americans identify with some kind of religion (with the majority being Christians). Most people in this country don't even accept evolution.
Furthermore, the majority of those in prison proclaim to be Christian. Apparently believing in a God doesn't make anyone moral. Not believing in one won't make you more prone to immorality either.

In fact, it means you will be more moral according to most of the research.
Matthew 7:22 Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?'
7:23 Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'
John:12-17 12Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
13And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
15If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
17Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

Scripture shows us the only "proof" we will get in this lifetime. While I cannot know and see their hearts, only the Lord can, we can see their actions and from those know what we are most likely dealing with. Many people who call themselves "Christians" are cultural christians at best, and most likely lying to themselves. If your numbers were truly correct, homosexuality would not be as out in the open as it is, and infanticide would still be illegal. Charities would be much stronger, and consumerism nowhere near as prevalent. Just because you go to church every sunday, does not make you a Christian and it can actually be a contraindication. The 4th commandment says "remember the sabath and keep it holy". God rested on the 7th day, not the first.

Scripture isn't proof. It is your subjective opinion they are not Christian. If they identify as such that's what they are. What it does mean is morality is not a question that must be tied to any religion.

I'm a liberal and I don't believe the LA riots were appropriate in any way, alot of innocent folks got caught up in it, it was a horrible event, many of the rioters showed their inhumanity that day.
Hispanic man, looks white and is called white/jewish, shoots black thuggish man who is on top of him slamming his head into the ground and the O along with other professional racists decry the white man killing the young boy even posting a seven year old picture of the boy instead of the picture that makes him look like a thug.
ill put my big boy pants on if you turn around and let me get dressed in my own home without thinking to tell me who a celebrity is or what people who share a relation by color have to do. better yet grow a pair and go join a forum where black people are and tell them what u think, isnt that "grabbing the bull by the horns".
