Zimmerman deserved to get punched, time to move on with our lives.

[Pat Mustard]

Strange how everyone forgets how Martin was the aggressor and was beating up Zimmerman while Zimmerman lay on the ground. Zimmerman is an asshole, but that doesn't make him a murderer, or deserve to get punched in the face.

I don't believe for a second that Martin initiated the aggression. I don't know if I would consider Zimmerman a murderer. Whether or not he's a murderer is irrelevant to whether he deserves to be punched in the face. It's still a toss up for me. It's not ok to punch someone in the face even if you feel they deserve it though.

I've punched people before, in all cases they've either attacked me or attacked a friend. The most recent time was about 18 months ago when I punched a man at a match in the jaw, mainly to stop him from his then current activity of kicking a teammate of mine who was lying prone on the ground.

There are times when hitting something is the right thing to do. And while I wouldn't necessarily condone somebody punching Zimmerman my repsonse if he complained to me about it post event would be "Awwww, pity about you"
