LOL. A gun shot injury that killed him. Zimmerman's injuries were minor......healed in a few days. Martin is dead from his injury. And you accuse me of poor reading comprehension??? Ha!


I stated "he didn't have any such injuries". That referred to injuries of the sort that would happen in a physical altercation.
==================
WFTV has learned that the medical examiner found two injuries on Martin’s body: The fatal gunshot wound and broken skin on his knuckles.

When you compare Trayvon’s non-fatal injury with Zimmerman's bloody head wounds, the autopsy evidence is better for the defense, Sheaffer said.

“It goes along with Zimmerman's story that he acted in self-defense, because he was getting beaten up by Trayvon Martin,” Sheaffer said.

==================

The only wounds that Martin had were to his knuckles and the GSW.

Martin was walking back from the store, talking to a friend on the phone, minding his own business

You have no idea if he was minding his business or not. In fact, the rest of what you say is pure speculation as well.

But guess what, it isn't illegal for Zimmerman to follow and observe someone walking through his neighborhood. Martin may not have liked it, but it doesn't give him the right to attack Zimmerman, which should be clear to even the most biased lefty.

Justice is often measured by the "reasonable person" premise.

What would a reasonable person do if someone was on top of him beating him and smashing his head into the ground? A reasonable person would wish he were armed well enough to defend himself against such an attacker, and if he were armed he would use available arms to defend himself.

That is all that has happened.

You can read the autopsy report at HuffnPuff
huffingtonpost.com

They note specifically that there are no injuries to the scalp. No injuries to the face.
